Sorry, but I've NEVER cried about Scratch. Losing 3 bucks maybe (long story) but you can still RPG in your gallery, so what's the problem?

"Threaten to ban them?" That seems rather harsh. Just give them a friendly warning, no need for "threats."

I'd also like to formally withdraw from the race...

Hey, sometimes force is the answer to all your problems.

Seriously, think before you talk.

As yet, you're the only person who is insanely mad. Will you be the one starting that "Revolutionary Scratch War" or whatever you're calling it?

Frankly, TBG did nothing to contribute to the Scratch community and was a waste of moderators' time.

Eh, I would be called "The Scratch Civil War" since it would be a fight within a group of people AKA: TBG approvers and TBG disapprovers

Acually it can be stopped. I could simply break into the Scratch studio (or whatever you call it, office or something) and kill everyone inside the building. Thus the project would not happen and I would live to enjoy watching Scratch go down in flames of Proverty. Isn't that great?

It's already been decided that the text based games are going. If only you'd been here two weeks ago- there was a discussion on that.

NOTE: Everyone- PLEASE stop calling the Scratch Team jerks and idiots or whatever. (No, ipt, I'm not accusing you) Sorry, I know you're angry but try to be a little more mature.

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)

Hope the Scratch team picks a couple of mods for the possible new forum site. If they don't, there is gonna be people trying to punish the Scratch team and mods by invading Inspiration and More. The thought of people rebeling is actualy kinda funny if you think about it.  lol

Well... Is there a accusation that will take us elsewhere Ms. Tak? If we want to call them jerks, we can. Or call them idiots, we can. Its part of living, we take people for jerks or idiots for some INEXCUSABLE actions like such.

That now concludes my Power point presentation. Wait... what?

I don't think that's a particularly good excuse. The Scratch Team INVENTED Scratch, and we should be happy. Don't make assumptions, nobody's an idiot.

And don't call me Ms.Tak >:P Lol.

Re: The closing of the text-based games forums (in 1 week)

Hello, hello. Have any of you read the whole post by Andrés? He clearly states that the website will be made by the Scratch Team (read that), and that the website will be http://scratch.mit.edu/someotherforum (something like that). Pay attention please! I am tired of ignorant people.

The Scratch Team will be making the website, so please discard your other websites. Thank you.

Super-bold really helps.

Actually, you are allowed to makeown forums, but for everybody who wants to make a TBG for Scratch but outside of the Scratch website, sorry Scratch's own is bound to be more popular.

The official site should be made by the Scratch Team. And since it's probably going to be made, why make another site? The Text-Based Games still exist, you know.

If you haven't read the post by Andrés, you won't know that there'll probably be a seperate website for the games. It'll be made if there's enough moderators for the site.

I have thought about this problem a long time ago.

1. It only takes five minutes a day to remove all of the games.
2. If it becomes neccessary, there can be a sticky saying that it isn't allowed to post games in Inspiration and More.
