~ Welcoming Committee Project ~

The Scratch Team is starting a Welcoming Committee and wants some projects to get started. Here's a remixable project that I created to help people get started.  smile

Re: ~ Welcoming Committee Project ~

yikes  A scratch team bumping!  tongue . I'm making a do not feed the trolls project, if that would qualify. It'll have information about trolls, spammers, and what to do, etc.

No, we need projects that welcome New Scratchers. Check out the non-project link in my first post or click my sig to learn more about the Welcoming Committee program.  smile

Re: ~ Welcoming Committee Project ~

It was supposed to be a welcome project actually, with a welcoming party for a new scratcher on their first project getting crashed by a troll. Then The older scratchers flag the troll, and it gets explained.

Would that work> Its friendly and welcoming, but then a troll comes in, and it explains trolls and spammers and what to do in a nice way.

Re: ~ Welcoming Committee Project ~

This is my welcoming project. It was based off of the idea I came up with for a hand made card I made for Fathers Day when I was like six or seven, good times... XD

Well, adding a component about what to do when encountering a troll or a spam comment can give the impression that a Scratcher is more than likely to encounter one instead of getting good ones, so it's not really that welcoming at all.

I think a better alternative is to make a standard welcome project and link to tutorial and guide projects in the project notes of the welcome project.

scmb1 also made a starter project you can easily remix. I think scmb1's project is easier to remix than mine, so why not remix hers?  smile
