What is meant by 'gaming the community'?
I don't exactly understand...


Programming is an art...
Goodbye, Scratch. I am leaving because of the exams coming up at our school, though I'll check the forums once or twice a week.

Re: What is meant by 'gaming the community'?

"Gaming the community" is trying to trick the people of scratch to thinking you are something when you aren't.

Like making an account called "L1ghtnin" and saying "i'm Lightnin's test account" or something. also, by saying "I'm quitting" and not quit, but just say that to gain popularity.

This. It's literally turning the Scratch website into a game for your own amusement.
