Hello, fellow Scratchers!
I just read an interesting article about Scratchers quiting. Read it before you go any further
From the Article (mildly edited):
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, here's the thing: I've come up with something to maybe solve the "I quit!" problem. This will only work however if EVERYONE WHO SEES THIS DOES IT!
So I came up with the concept of my ten. Here's what you do:
1. Go to the newest projects section or home page...
2. Check out the newest projects of ten scratchers...
3. Comment on those projects and give advice, constructive feedback, and something to boost the moral of the scratcher. For example:
'That was so cool! One option to improve it would be to make the sprites spawn at a different area each time using the (pick a random block). Overall, it was really great!'
...And always end with a positive note!
I'm currently working on getting my ten done...
... Will you join me?
I DARE YOU!
By the way, I know this may not belong in "Show and Tell" but I really hope you can make an exception, as this will only work with lots of people!
Post here if you will do "My Ten Challenge"...
Post here when you are finished "M.T.C."
Scratch On!
EXTRA CHALLENGES:
View at least one project in the newest projects section and comment on it. PER DAY!

See? Great idea, huh?
Encourage, compliment, and if you think that something is seriosly wrong, tell them politely. Do that, and Scratch will be a better place, I can garentee it.

Maybe we should let them quit so they regret it and build a time machine into a Delorean and go back in time and their mum/dad falls in love with them and they create a time paradox, the results of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space time continuum, and destroy the entire universe! Granted, that's a worse case scenario. The destruction might in fact be very localized, limited to merely our own galaxy.
Great Scott! This is heavy!

That paradox would suck compared to this one
