Yeah, I dunno what the real 'Pledge of Allegiance' is, but I think this needs a cool title.
Can you fulfil this pledge? You have to post for a week in Misc. (and all other forums, maybe?), following these guidelines...
The Misc. Pledge of Allegiance
> Thou shalt not spam
> Try to make all posts 2 lines long or more (make posts worthwhile)
> Help at least 1 new member every day
> Keep content suitable for all
> Reply HELPFULLY to threads (don't just put 'yeah, I can't help you there')
> Be friendly to all Scratchers, even annoying ones[/quotes]
> In the week, post at least one topic that is likely to generate discussions
I know you should do this stuff already, but as you settle in to the forums, you sometimes forget. Like I do.
I wrote this for myself, but figured that it would be quite fun for us all to have a go!
If you want to join, post saying so. Then other Scratchers will know you are posting by the Pledge and we can check to see how well you are doing!
It's a bit of fun that could potentially help Scratch become a bit more... civilized, and maybe more interesting than reading a post saying 'oh yeah lol'!
If you want to commend another user, or point out someone not sticking to the MPOA very well, tell us here ^^
We might even have a leaderboard by the end of the week!
So who wants to take the challenge!?

How did TDD not know that? I haven't said it in a few years, but I still thought of it immediately.
Sure, whatever.

Do I fulfill the requirements?
Oh, one more: "Post with grammar"

Seems pretty pointless to me.
No offense but I dont see why we need a pledge to motivate ourselves to do good on scratch.

Nope, sorry.

I'll think about it.....
All my topics hit the 314th page of misc in less than a week.

I'm a Brit, not American XD
And yep, you do!!
@all the people who said no- I see why
It's a bit pathetic, but it was to see if anyone would make an extra effort...

Well, we don't need to post one topic every week, I think we have the choice of posting a topic when we want to, as rufflebee's post suggests.

I pledge alliegance, to the flag,
Of the United States of America,
And to the republic,
For which it stands,
One nation, under God,
Indivisible,
With liberty and justice for all.
OR:
I pledge alliegance, to Miscellaneous,
Of the United Website of Scratch,
And to not spam in the forum,
In which it stands,
One website, on the Internet,
Epical,
With awesomeness and posting for all.

As people gathered, I more of post than make topics. That'll be hard for me.
Plus, I doubt any topics I post, rare as they be, will generate discussion.
EDIT: Another thing. In green, I don't think annoying people are quite... allowed?

Well, I think I can do what I already try to do all the time! Pretty simple pledge, everyone should take it, as that's what you should do here!
