Scratch

You aren't... we're just old 

When I joined scratch I remember that archmage and paddle2see were popular.
When I made my first game on scratch paddle2see commented it and that encouraged me to make more games.
So I created a few games but I really wanted to make a platformer but I didn't know how to do.
After a few weeks when I was at my grand parents house I found out how to make a platformer.
So I borrowed their computer and dowloaded scratch and made I platformer DEMO which I uploaded so that I could make more levels at home
When I got home I made a few more levels and  uploaded it to scratch.
Then I had a lot of things in school and I didn't visit the scratch website for a long time
But when I logged in for the first time in a couple of months I had like one or two unread messages.
I decided to look at the most viewed and most loved projects, just to see if they were thay same as before.
There was a new project on the most loved page called "cube world" I looked closer and I recognized my character from my platformer game.
I played the game and I noticed that the creator of it "tanner-fbi" had not made it as a remix of my platformer. Then I looked in the description and at first I couldn't see my name, but then I saw it at the very bottom of the description he wrote: "I give tonnes of credit to jacool for the cube guy scripts, thanks jacool" But I didn't only make the scripts I had made the character sprite too. I was quite angry because everybody thought tanner-fbi was the real creator of cube guy.
So I remember the good ol' days and those were before tanner-fbi mad his cube world project.

Not to rain on your parade or anything, but people have commented that the sprites are crude and rushed. It seems like he took a bullet for you metaphorically. I myself have never played cube field but I've heard that the reason it was so popular was because of the music.

I know many people like the music, but when other people make cube huy games they make them as remixes of tanner-fbi:s project not my. And people ask tanner-fbi if the are allowed to use the cube guy sprite and scripts in one of their games. But tanner-fbi never tells them that cube guy wasn't created by him.

You should start a topic in show and tell and tell everyone then show them

I did but no one views those topics, and not many people blieve me.

Here it is: (I think): http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/jacool/103503

Yeah, I remember the old days, although most people on this thread are talking about relatively recent things such as Doody and Bosox I remember when project would go on the front page stay there forever and would all be amazing . . . and I remember the time before, spamming, and the time before, well anything . . . 

I remember "Perfect Sprite Movement" and "Super Mario Coins"... and also I think me and Demosthenes joined about two days before me. So what he said.

I think I might post a topic in show and tell, but I don't what to write so that people would believe me.

Just post an image, a link, then write what you want. As long as you don't give us a reason to NOT believe you (e.g. saying "I am God, so shut up"), you should be fine.

Also, get well-known users to back you up.

Could you guys back me up, please? I have made a picure which shows both my project and tanner-fbi's project, and also a few comments tanner-fbi made on my other projects.

I started a new topic now here's the link if you want to back me up:

Thank you for helping me!

Wow I remember all of that. Zelda123 is an amazing scratcher. Hehe you used my name.

i just have one question to ask you, if you still go on scratch... you had all the people watching you, you were on on front page all the time, so... why did you quit?

Because he was sick of attention?
