Scratch

Well, many people don't like small animations and cat projects and stuff like that and when it gets front page they hate it. I sometimes hate it as well, but the more they view it and post nasty comments the higher views you are getting.

Ignore the insults as Dazachi said. The people who dislike those projects are either:

1. Jealous.
2. Very limited to games.
3. Haven't watched any of your animations anyway.
4. Simply dislike your style.
5. Are people who are just plain stupid!

Overall, those people who insult the Social Scratchers (was that the name of the group) are either:

1. Secretly jealous.
2. Want their projects to be front-paged instead.
3. Dislike your drawing style and appreciate pixel art.

So, just remember that they're a bunch of dribbling zombies who spend their life irritating people.

Well, people who are famous don't want their projects on the front page, like nikkiperson2 or I think The-Whiz. But that's because they experienced the fame feeling and the 100 comments. They get tired replying and they don't want it to be on the front page anymore. But people like me, we doesn't have much views or that experience want their projects on the front page to see what happens. It might turn out well, or not. So basically, I second what Jonathanpb said.

I think you get Top Viewed constantly because you have enough friends that whenever you make a new project, they see it in the My Friends' Latest Projects and rush to it. And the suscribers...

How many people can do that?

You can read my sticky in Show and Tell about getting more views on your projects and galleries (ooh, I'm advertising my own thing! But it fits... so yeah). Here's the link (yes, I know you can just go to Show and Tell): How to get a popular project/gallery (more than just Show and Tell)

I don't have that experience so I want to try it. I like meaningful and usefull comments. Not:

"OMG! How did this piece of * get featured."
"This is stupid. Delete this."

I like:

"This is great! I like how..."
"There is a glitch, ..., otherwise, it is very good."

Etc.

*shrug* I've always wished I would get top something. It makes me feel... invisable. I mean I've seen alot of my friends have one project on the front page somehow and all the sudden they're getting 300+ veiws everywhere. And I just sigh and wish that it was me. I just broke the 40+ veiws for my projects. I look at people like you and think "how did they do it?" Cause there's no point on making a project if no one looks at it. That's pretty much the only thing keeping me going is that when I share the project, people will comment saying they love it. If that idn't happen I wouldn't be on scratch anymore.

The same goes for me Radiance, but I have the strength to keep it going. Make something unique, and maybe the Scratch Team will notice it, and get it featured, or you could advertise your projects in you signature so people will know that they should watch it.

Remember... Scratch isn't for fame. That is not a goal. People just like it... but if you're not famous, don't let that get you down!

Actually, being famous is very tiring.

In Show and Tell, I wrote a topic for how to get more views on your projects and galleries. I seriously recommend getting on the Scratch Design Studio's galleries and then getting on the front page; it's really easy, but you need good projects (and not all of those projects get on). But read it all. How to get a popular project/gallery (more than just Show and Tell)

Hmm. It makes me wonder how someone could hate your animations, but ok! I suggest you ignore them and if they continue to post hate comments, block 'em.

Or even better, delete them and pretend it never happened! 

No, that's not honest, sadly. 

But delete them if they're really nasty! 

But be sensible about it. 

Maki dont listen to them!    Its the veiw choice to veiw what they want and what those guys dont get is that putting those stupid comments  makes the project even higher....It backfires and they dont relise it! Just ignore them and move on to reply the nice comments!    That might help!

I think this is starting because you are starting to ignore people's comments. Replying to them (not angriliy) will solve your problems.

Also - report nasty comments. That always helps.

This thread has changed me, you know you can just create a new account and ONLY tell your friends on scratch. Start-over I guess. OR just stay on the forums, its the most helpful part and friendly of scratch!
