I'm gonna go crazy... i swear...

Ever since the secret block came out people have been misusing them. It's annoying. It's as if it's replaced the special black. Now every level I go to I have to touch the bricks to find them, instead of seeing them. Plus the levels get bloched up and it doesn't please my eyes.

Damn I hate it when people use them like this.

...Isn't it kinda what they are used for anyway? (Just saying, I could be wrong)

Re: I'm gonna go crazy... i swear...

I really hate when people substitute invisible blocks for black blocks. I end up randomly bumping into walls and falling. I rarely ever see anyone use them for "secrets" anymore. I've always thought secret blocks should be used as hidden shortcuts, but I've only seen that done in a few worlds. In those worlds, finding secrets is a pleasant surprise. In most worlds now, it becomes frustrating when half the world is invisible.

Those invisible blocks just annoy me now. At first they were cool, now not so much.

The worst part are the invisible mazes, usually filled with tightfits.

How I Use Secret Bricks:

1. I use Secret Bricks to block the wrong way. Just to ensure they're going the right way.

There's this one level, it starts with stairs. After them is a large invisible maze. It's filled with tightfits and hook jumps. What fun. I'd rather know what I'm getting so I can say "Oh, stupid minigames. Noob level" and leave before wasting time on it.

I find that frustrating. Use black blocks instead.

I like using secret bricks for optional shortcuts or passages to blue coins that only observant players can find. Using them for secrets, not just walls. The problem is, when people are building a level, they know where the secret blocks are. They don't see how frustrating it is for players, because they know where the walls are. The player, on the other hand, doesn't know where the walls are if they're made out of secret blocks. Aren't levels a lot more frustrating when you can't see them?

I only use them to trap people. It feels so good inside me.

Well that's useful... another brick for run from god(s).

But I ESPECIALLY hate it when people put them around the crowns. I never know if I can grab it or not. (Some worlds you can)

Well, I think secret bricks can be used for secret shortcuts. For example, a level creator uses fully black blocks to make it look like a level is 195x195. However, in some places, most likely protected by a hard challenge, there is a small secret maze in the fully black blocks(only about 10-12 blocks long), that lets you skip about 10% of the level.

I've always hated secret bricks because from the moment they came out I knew they would be misused. Other misused features that I hate are coins, keys, invisible blocks, crowns, coin doors, decoration blocks, and black blocks. I hate almost all new features in EE, mostly because I'm an EE conservative (I hate change in EE).

ah i hate those... they are simply time-consuming blocks but hey, if you don't like a level with them, you can always quit and never play that level again it's only annoying when all the levels in the lobby are empty, stupid, or full of these.

You're just listing off features. At least give some examples or reasons they're misused.
