Anything must be wrong with the curator page...
I was on the curator page (http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Become_a_Scratch_Curator) and I wanted to see my notif count. I clicked on my stuff and I came to the home page! I tried 3 times, but every time when I go away from the curator page and clicked on my stuff I got to the home page! That is wrong.

Actually all the "my stuff" links on all pages that are at the domain info.scratch.mit.edu lead you to the homepage.

I think the Scratch Team knows about this, but they are too lazy to fix it! 
EDIT: I think I should have said "they are too busy to fix it".

But why?
Because I don't think you're logged in while you're on info.scratch.mit.edu. Look and you'll see that there is no "Welcome, person X | Logout" on any page on that site. I'd like to know why they still keep the "My Stuff" page on the bar, though.

I want to try it...

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

I think there's another explanation. I reported this issue a while back but it was rejected by the Development team for a very good reason. I just wish I could remember what it was - lol!
The bug list seems to be down for maintenance right now...I'll research it more when it comes back up.

Lazy, eh?! 
That's one word I would definitely not use to describe the Scratch Team!
Scratchers don't get to see a lot of the stuff we're often doing behind the scenes... so it's understandable that you'd think we were just lazing around, sitting on our porches drinking iced tea all day, can't be bothered to write in the forums, or fix bugs....
But nothing could be farther from the truth!
re: This bug - it is actually on the list of things to fix. It has to do with the connection between the Scratch documentation site (info.scratch.mit.edu) and the main Scratch website (scratch.mit.edu). Since they aren't _really_ the same website, they can't read one another's cookies. And if you can't read the login cookie from scratch.mit.edu, then you can't tell where the user's mystuff page is....
But there is a solution! However, our main developer will be away for most of the Summer, so this probably won't get fixed until Fall. 
Sorry guys, you'll just have to click mystuff from the homepage until then!
Help Scratchers make the leap to 2.0!
