Nowhere

Any other ideas...?

Did you find it?

Cool.
What is your Skype?
I'll add you.

I've added you.

Why don't we all friend each other?
We can talk of things other than things we're reading and playing through projects and comments!
This is a fix to the flawed system that was presented to us during the closing of misc; Use a project if it doesn't go in the forums.  We'd all see this project when we come to scratch, and we could even more easily tell if someone had replied to us specifically from notifications!

This was intended for the users of THIS SUBFORUM, so, mods, so that this is seen by only the right audience, don't move it.  Okay?  Good!

Anyway, post here to indicate that you want to be included in this network of friends.  And in said post, type out any comments you have on this system.  To be included, friend everyone who posted here indicating that they wanted to be, including me.  And when we get to it, we'll do the same.

Well, I'm all for people building friendship networks - that sounds great!  However, we're not going to leave this topic here indefinitely - it's clearly Scratch related so it doesn't fit into this forum.  We'll leave it here for another day or two than we can move it to Collaboration if you like.  After that, you can invite people by comment or by advertising on a project and using Show and Tell. 

I disagree with your analysis that the current system is flawed...from my viewpoint, it was the previous configuration that was flawed.  But I respect your right to try and increase the functionality - as long as you respect the guidelines. 

You know, another approach would be to just start up your own forums

Essentially, projects are "more important" in a sense, they are displays of whatever skill (programming, art, storytelling) and not places to go "here is a project talk in the comments"). The forums actually are a place made for discussions.

Besides, if you wanted to cut down on spam, how does having the exact same thing in projects change whether it is pointless or unnecessary?

How was something that everyone would see "flawed"?  The whole point of the forums is so that a massive range of people will see this topic, not just 2 or 3 people in newest projects and whoever is still active, cares enough, and is on your friends list to look at your project!

If we'd all friend each other, though, that flaw would be removed and the massive range of misc veterans and new, enthusiastic faces would all see these projects!
A slight side effect of a popular topic would be that our projects would be front paged a lot.
