There's the TBG forums - it's the same community, just in a different place 

Here it is: http://scratch.mit.edu/tbgforums. TBG away!

coolstuff, how do i get there from the forums home or from the front page?

Oh, ok. They should change that because it is incredibly difficult to get to unless you know where to look

I'm pretty much the same. When it was on /forums I was there a lot. When it moved to /tbgforums I was like bleh. Now I go there once in a while to play a game that I wish was real or a movie. Or atleast an animation. But I can do that part. Movie is cooler.

Same with me. I use to play TBGs all the time, but since it moved, I never do.

What is it that makes you want to play in the TBG on the Scratch Forums and not at the TBG forum? 

Ahhh... is it because of raising your post count?        



I think the new TBG is much better than the old - it has special moderators, it's separate from the Scratch Forums, there are Featured Games, there are Operation Cleanups where unneeded topics get cleared away, and so on. It's well maintained. 

It probably is better, I just don't really bother. It just feels like a whole different community to me. One where I don't fit in. (Not that I really fit in here anyway xD)

My guess is that's because there is a whole different set of people who use the main forums and the TBGs. The same would happen if the forum were located here.

Exactly, and since the TTBGs have nothing to do with Scratch.
... And speaking ofmthe text-bSED GAMES, GET IN THERE!

You're right! 

And also because it was a source of fights. It's not a problem in the new TBG - the moderators can focus on dissolving fights more; when it was in the Scratch Forums, the moderators had plenty of stuff to deal with - they couldn't spend as much time caring for the TBG as the moderators in the new TBG can.

It's not a matter of post count for me. The TBG just feels detached. Now that I think about it, the whole site feels the same way. I guess it's developed.
