Scratch

I recieved a comment from stevetheipad saying if I wanted to become a SDS curator, I should go here. So seeing as I'm hoping to become a curator, heres my Scratching time in a nutshell:

I started in January 2010, I didn't make much and rarely commented. My views were around 5 or so. Then I remixed projects (add things) for a few months before making games. Once I started making them, my amount of views and comments rose a little, and I started to have a more closer look at others projects, favourite and love them as well as comment more than usual. I started getting a little more well-known (for a good reason). And then we come to here, I still make games and I'm always respectful towards the community, I go on the forums (TBG too) daily and I'm respectful there too. I have never taken someones project or music without credit, at least if I know who it was made by. I get around 10-100 views in their first 5 days and a handful of comments as well. I have made lots of friends and I haven't been hacked or treated disrespectfully since I started. I think I would make a great SDS curator as I'm always active on the website and ready.

Steve, do you have some access to some secret page for us curators that I don't know about?

Nope. Why?

When you told rab that you saw his submission, what submission were you talking about?

I may have joined not so long ago but i give helpful advice, already run a life simulation collab and I am helpful to the community.

I am mature, and know a good project when I see one. I look out for the GOOD projects, not all the `Nyan Cat ROCKS!` or `Ninjas are pwnsome!` type projects, the good one. (Plus, I am very VERY active. Infact, addicted to scratch)

I would like to be a curator because i love to offer friendly support to others and i answer their questions in a nice way, i also love to look at cool projects that dont have many views.

-Scratch on!

What I noticed a lot of people don't understand is that we add any project that fits the rules, guidelines and gallery and we don't just choose the best projects.

Yeah, and we want someone who understands how SDS works.

Added something to the first post explaining that.

I know that 
My application is about helping people who aren't eligible to become eligible, and giving tips on the project so they can learn how to do things better.

Oh steve, hi! I just want to say that the best day of me life'd be if I became a curator. I check literally every day and That would make me the ;)iest Scratcher in the universe.

I also understand how curating works. I always study stevetheipads' replies to the project links in the SDS galleries, and how you may want to add the best projects, but sometimes they're ones that do not.
For example:
1s1s SDS gallery:
Scratcher- YO U LIKE? (Link to Project)
Ends up being an epic car game, but it played music so it was 1 sprite 2 script.
angelica101- Sorry, but I can't add this. It's awesome, I'd love to add it but it's 1s2s. Sorry!
So now you know I can follow the SDS Curator's code.

Can I help be a curator? I'm on scratch every day and I like SDS, I think it would be fun. I never have had a Scratch moderating position before and I want this to be experience. I like to help out on scratch, going to the Newest Projects page and putting construcive criticizm and "   SCRATCH ON!" at the end.

I am interested.
I am active, enjoy leaving constructive criticism, and would like something to do other than post in misc, waiting for Scratch 2.0 to come out. I would love this opportunity.
Thanks,
Dinoclor

Ok, so when will you be showing who will be the next SDS curator?

It may be the word "curator". I had addessed that I would choose any "follows the guidelines and isn't scarring children for life" projects that fit the actual theme. Also, I wouldn't count a cat saying "Hello" as 1s1s.

Well, I would like to be curator. I am experienced in telling what is appropriate. I try to turn anything into a good thing, which helps everyone, so I help scratch with my upbeat epersonaloty. I like viewing the SDS, and have always wanted to be the curator.
