Iv'e seen allot of topics like this and decided now is a good time to release my formal speech. Please comment and all support is greatly needed!

When I first joined the Forums, I looked through the threads and looked for what was missing in the genre of guides. I first put together a guide that covered the basic uses of Scratch. In the end, it was a guide that covered nearly everything. You can find it here. Then I decided to start writing guides about making sprites and where to get good graphics etc; You can find them here and here.

I got great responses from coolstuff and more Moderators', but sadly they never got Stickied. I first learnt about Scratch when I was 12 and my brother introduced it to me. I'd been making projects for around a year before I learnt you could share games online! After discovering the Forums, becoming a Moderator was my ultimate goal. Here are some final notes to encourage you to elect me.

- I'm well spoken and polite.
- Being 14, I find it easier to understand younger users.
- I'm active everyday for nearly 3-3.5 hours.
- I have made lots of friends and introduced Scratch to many schoolmates.
- I love to show new users around!
- I run a successful Forum newspaper with great response - Scratchers Informer.
- I have experience from Staff positions from popular text based games.

A final note. Many of you may be thinking, '250 Posts?'. (480 Now.) Yes, let me enlighten you. 'Quality is better than Quantity.' And in the guidelines for becoming a Community Moderator, I have been around for the right amount of time. So, I believe I am a well suited candidate for Scratch, but that is ultimately up to the Community and the Team! Please comment and remember...

...why has he BLEW it?! I think younger mods are better. They know how to word things so younger people understand. What I mean is this:

Person1, age 10 : Why is this project not working for me?

Now, which is more useful?

FlexiStudio : You've forgotten to add a forever block. [image of a good script]

Some Older Person : Your project is lacking the basic requirement of a 'forever' block, meaning your creation is incapable of performing the commands after the flag is pressed.

I'm voting FlexiStudio. So THERE.  smile

Re: Vote FlexiStudio for Community Moderator!

Dude, nearly all the Mods are 14. Illusinist is the youngest! The minimum age for a Moderator has been changed to 14, so there is no way I have 'Blew it'.

Anyway, thank you very much Dancing_Donut! I'm glad to see that you support me!  big_smile  So juststickman, would you kindly explain?

Yeah, you seem to be, in my opinion, one of the most straight-talking people running for mod. Lots of the others seem to want the power and fame, but it sounds like you actually WANT to help people. And PS I like your sig.  big_smile
@blade, I agree.
