Sorry, but you can't until you become just a plain "Scratcher" on the TBG. You'll have to wait a while... But this is to (help) stop spammers.  smile

Actually, new scratchers CAN post topics in the TBG. I just went on my Test account and there was the "Post new topic" button there.

you're able to manage posting in these forums and the TBGs? I tried that and ended up just giving up on the TBGs.

How do you mean you "can't get on the TBGs?"

Are you sure you're visiting the correct website? You should be going to http://scratch.mit.edu/tbgforums. Maybe you could explain in more detail what your problem is?

Yes, but nobody can get to the website. We get an "Internet Explorer Cannot Display The Webpage." He/she means that there's something wrong (I think).

You left?  yikes  Or is it because you've fallen in love with the wiki now? xD That happened to WeirdF... it happened to me too, but a bit lightly.  hmm

Nothing will destroy my loyalty.  big_smile

Re: how do you make a text based game?? :(

I'm not sure about this, I'm having the same problem too. On Mozilla Firefox whenever I try to go to text-based games forums it says "This page is not redirected correctly". It might be cookies doing this so turn off your cookies if you get this error and try then because it might work. If it still doesn't work please get a screenshot if you can and send it to the scratch team through "Contact us" or use the "Troubleshooting" forums to report it.  smile
