Scratch

To program.

After joining and staying for a while sharing was included.

None of the above (which, I guess, after seeing how Ace-of-Spades answered E, I guess my choice would be F).

I joined because my programming professor was using Scratch as a visual learning aid when teaching C++, and we were encouraged to join and download Scratch projects off the Scratch website to learn how each individual projects work.

I originally stayed because I was in a position where I wasn't sure if my schedule would allow me to take a class such as Game Design or Programming II, so inactivating my account was rather risky should I manage to take one of those classes and the professor decide to use Scratch again as a visual tool.

I fully then stayed because of A and C, equally. Now after learning Flash and C++, choice C seems to be the bigger reason as to why I'm staying. The Scratch Forum and community are usually more friendly than most I've encountered.

Becauswe I was forced to. Nah My teacher was having this for an after school program, and i signed up.

I see what you are trying to prove jon but the people who do chat will look down ("if you answered..." IN BOLD  )

Anyway as for the survey, I vote A.

I'm not very good at scratch but I enjoy it 

I joined because of many reasons:

- I discovered Scratch in an ICT lesson over 8 months ago, and thought my brother would like it as much as I did, so I was looking for a place to download it to show him. I then found out that I could share projects online, so I signed up to see what other people thought about my work, so I could improve it.

- A few of my friends joined Scratch, and I wanted to be able to view their projects, and help them to improve theirs

- I got the idea of Scratch within 10 minutes of being introduced to it, and had programmed my first game in less than half an hour (it was a pretty addictive (yet glitchy) game, too - one of my classmates admits to having it on his USB, to play when bored). So I had to help others in my class. After our Scratch lessons ended, I thought it would be fun to try helping others around the world, the same way I had in class.

- I wanted to see what was possible with Scratch. Sure, before I joined up, I got the idea of 75% of the blocks, but I thought that the limit was using the arrow keys to chase a sprite, and that Variables were only used for scoring. Looking at others' projects taught me so much from this

That's all I can think of at the moment, but I suppose my main reason was that I wanted to be the best I could be at Scratch. Plus I found it really fun.

E. all of the above.

That would be G - All of the above besides E and F, or H - All of the above besides G.

A

A, B, and C.

Mostly A.

A, seeing how I didn't venture out to the forums until a month later.

I made my account just to download programs.
So, G.

A, because I was so amased that kids actually made all these amazing games and works of art ('hint' 'hint' art haters)
