Scratch

LS97 · 2011-11-04 08:10:34

When I joined Scratch, I was already pretty experienced with computers. I started making fake OSes when I was 4.
When I started using the internet communities more extensively, I:
- Never capitalized anything
- Used abbreviations all the time (u, ppl, 2, w8, brb, @, gl, gg, gtg, ty, nty, yw, plz)
- Was rude, annoying and argumentative (more than now anyway)
- Thought powerpoint was used to make OSes
- Never deleted my browsing history/cookies
- Believed scams and chain emails
- Made webpages in word and wondered why they wouldn't open in a browser
- Used internet explorer 6 (that's the biggest noobity tongue )
- Thought I was the best at computers
- Tried to get a Club Penguin membership for free by contacting Disney
- Believed you could change a file type by changing the extension (such as making a movie from a powerpoint by changing PPT to WMV)
- Loved the Windows XP sample pictures and sounds so much I made a movie out of them

I'm glad I don't have so much to learn anymore, but there's still a lot ahead... smile

I thought you could change a file type by the extension too. Then I went and asked my dad who is a programmer "Why doesn't my image/video/sound/game work anymore????? I just wanted to change the filetype!"

when i was a noob,i was allowed in misc for some reason,and my first post was called "Baddest you eva had to pee?"

JJROCKER · 2011-11-26 23:27:00

-I was pretty confused about everything
-I didn't understand why mods kept closing my topics(they were completely in the wrong places tongue )
-I was pretty rude to some people(some of you probably remember this)
-All I cared about was fame and getting on the front page(Many of you probably remmeber that tongue )
-I would stay up until 2 in the morning making sure my projects would stay on the front page.

-Didn't know there was such thing as a "New Scratcher Status"
-Keeping in mind that I didn't know that, my first post ever was a request to become a curator
-Didn't know how to make a new topic
-Always made typos and didn't proofread
-Thought the Community Moderators were part of the Scratch Team
-Thought Lightnin was just a regular Scratcher
-Thought Cheddar was a regular Scratcher.

I was so stupid back then lol

nightmarescratcher · 2011-11-26 23:36:34

I once tried to upload a PowerPoint to YouTube! I thought it would convert it for me lol

Most people would probably consider me a noob now...

I ALWAYS wrote 'I will eat you' in my posts.

Now I rarely do. I only do it if someone gets me annoyed.

Yeah, I remember when you were new. That was annoying so I tried to avoid posting in the same topic as you -.-

-I had previously used scratch just to look at projects, so I started off with a little knowledge about the site.
-I knew absolutely nothing about the Scratch program. My first project was the scratch cat standing in grass with the sky behind him. Yes, its cliche, I know.

Lar-Rew · 2011-11-27 09:57:15

-I didn't post on the forums.
-I made noobish projects (which aren't on the website), although I knew they were noobish.

shugocharafan88 · 2011-11-27 09:58:27

oh my gosh. don't even get me started. I was a horrible noob. no, i mean a HORRIBLE NOOB.
1. i posted countless topics about who i had a crush on
2. i posted countless fanfics thinking people actually cared

just to name 2. don't even get me started on the other ones. =.=

pikachu1337 · 2011-11-27 11:07:18

Despite the normal "post count = non-noobiness" theory I've actualy been on the forums for quite a while and I have drastically changed.
I was a flamer and I fought with veggieman and pw. And someone else.
Was it Ace-of-Hearts?
Oh yes, it was.
In my topic saying that 4kids is evil she stated that it made anime okay for her kids. (or something along those lines)
Yes you read that right.
In a much later topic she stated she was 14.
.-.

Back on topic;
I was a noob when I only had 50 posts.
No grammar,
and I posted a lot like this.
No, only this paragraph.

fireheartocean · 2011-11-27 11:56:38

Well, when I joined Scratch I had already been on another forum for about... 4 or 5 years. Most of my noob-yness had already worn off on them, and I figured out the basics of Scratch before I ever posted on the forums. However, on the other forum was a different story. I was on there first when I was about... hmm... 6. xD

-I thought when people said xD or XD it was some kind of technical computer programming. xD
-My posts were always like this: Like, LOL! You're sooooo nice! smile smile smile LOL No way! big_smile That is soooo cool! LOL!
-I was way over sensitive. One time I made a drawing gallery and someone posted on it, "Wow, this art is HIDEOUS. What are you, 3? Go to art school and come back in ten years, you loser." I was sad about it. So I just shoved another drawing in their face. xD But now I would've rolled my eyes and said, "Well, I appreciate your honesty."

PoDo · 2011-11-27 12:27:11

I used to post my sig in my post because I didn't know how to have a sig.
I wonder if anyone remembers.

I didn't know I reached 400 posts.
