Destruction of the Art - The Paradox Method

You've seen all those return of the game method threads but don't know which to choose? Have no fear, The Paradox Method is here!!! You'll love this plan because instead of it's main focus being in creating games, we focus on reducing the fan-base that gravitates towards art.

1. Be Nice To Artists: Be nice, we need to uphold our image while reducing them.

2. Comment Nicely (But Annoyingly): Even if you don't like the project, you should be nice and give a comment.

An examplary comment would be:

OMG, That is sooooooo KAWAI!!! So DEKU I love it so much. Do you have a boyfriend? Well do ya? Do ya? I need to know this stuff!!! By the way SO KAWAI AND DEKU!!!!!!!

These comments will annoy them and make them stop wanting to create so many of these projects.

3. Game Time: Now that we have reduced the basis for art in the community, make games, there's nothing stopping you, and ideally, you'll be reminded of what i hear were, "The good ol' days."

Kill Them With Kindness - The Paradox Method

P.S. 1 and 2 are to be preformed at the same time.

Form an alliance.

Return of the Games, and Destruction of the Art, will form a team, one to bring games back, and one to destroy art.

Re: Destruction of the Art - The Paradox Method

You realize you could steer clear of the art projects, and only view games?

He just didn't like the alliance between that evil Britain.

Unfair taxes and laws are incomparable to to different methods for the same goal.

No, you're purposely annoying the artists and trying to make them stop making games.

Re: Destruction of the Art - The Paradox Method

Hrm.  It's fine to propose things like how better to share the front page. But it's not fine to disrespect other groups of Scratchers, or try to convince them to quit.

http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Terms_of_use

"Be honest. Don't pretend to be someone other than who you are or try to game the community."

So - suggestions on how better to share or otherwise customize the front page are always welcome. Plans to "take over" Scratch, or dominate one group or another, are not.
