Hey, your first post, congratulations! (you'll have to wait for tomorrow morning to see if you're in; Chongyian, CEO, sleeps during the day    )

yeah I had some complications with that as well.

Meh, that 60 seconds rule is preventing me from posting.

No, I haven't voted yet. In fact, I didn't even know the polls were open! XP

...but now that they are, I think I'll go vote. :3

Refer to the first few posts and see what else you can help to do. Hey, wait! Something you can do: Report for the closure of the scratch times. Get as much information as possibe...













(Just so you see my post I'll make it big)

Ever thought it would be great to be a curator on the Scratch Homepage? Yes, it's great to decide who becomes famous and who remains in obscurity, but is it all it's said to be? Most curators would tell you that yes, it is a great experience, but we have another story to tell.

Some of you may have noticed that stevetheipad is the current curator, but you may have also noticed that the previous curator, CatPerson, did not serve a full term. In fact, she only served a few days before steve took over. While some may have thought this to be in error, that is not the case. It all started when CatPerson was chosen to be the next curator, and as with any other curator before them, she started receiving requests and suggestions for things to curate. But when the time came for CatPerson to be rotated in, the requests became more frequent, and she simply could not keep up with all projects mentioned to her due to a very busy schedule at home and at school.

Eventually, the strain became to much, and she requested in a project that people stop requesting curation. The project received many negative comments, but they cannot be quoted because they were deleted by CatPerson. After all this, they finally replied with this statement: "OMG! I DIDNT REALIZE IT AND I GET LIKE TEN TROLLERS! I JUST STARTED MIDDLE SCHOOL! I HAVE A C IN READING AND A B IN MATH AND NO ONE WILL CUT ME SOME SLACK ! I GOT A BEHAVIOR INFRACTION FOR FORGETTING ONE THING AT MY LAST CLASS, IVE HAD ABUNCH OF TROLLERS ON HER, THE ONLY HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEK HAS BEEN SOMEONE TELLING ME MY CRUSH LIKES ME! D:< I dont want to be curator anymore! Infact, this is the thing I wouldnt even suggest to my worst enemy!" After making this reply, she disabled commenting, so new discussions were not made after said post..

The ST heeded their request and immediately asked stevetheipad how soon he could start. Steve replied, "I can start anytime you'd like.  " Steve was put into the curator position the next day, and the schedule has been reset to accommodate for CatPerson's resignation.

In conclusion, being selected curator, a dream come true? Or perhaps your worst nightmare? For most, it was a great experience, one they would always remember as a great time helping the community. For others, this will now be something they will regret. For all aspiring curators on the Scratch site, be very sure you want to do this before applying, and ask for advice from previous curators if you are selected. This will improve your chances of having a great time, and a great experience. Thanks, and Scratch On.

Ah, I just finished. I guessed it was a she, but didn't want to assume. I changed a bit more than you did, so wait a sec and I'll add gender.

Alright, in a little while I'll post my project review.

No, don't use that. I forgot Person is capital too, give me one more sec. This is why we revise and proofread!    I've revised other stuff since chongyian post, look back at it now.
