Re: how to be popular

Make good projects, spell and have good grammar on the forums, try not to get too many closed topics, off topics or moved topics, follow rules, be random, and have fun.

Also, beg to be a curator. It does wonders for your popularity.

Don't chase success (popularity), chase excellence. Success will follow!

Re: how to be popular

My personal advice is to work hard, while you may not feel popular during the time of making awesome projects it's afterwards that it happens.

Don't expect too much though, there are a lot of people that have been using Scratch for years and have had to wait for nearly as long to have their projects become popular.

Just work hard and keep smiling  big_smile

Re: how to be popular

the true way to get popolar

make 1 good project
spam it and get it on top viewed
make similar less decent projects in a short timespan (release every time you go off the front page)
work up fanbase
????
PROFIT

You're supposed to want to be a curator so you can give others fame; not yourself.

You're supposed to want to be a curator so you can give others fame; not yourself.

But since your name is on the front page(as in "Projects chosen by ____" it gives you fame even if you don't want it.

And TuffGhost's formula works. IT WORKS, PPLS

Don't give up. I've seen a lot of people give up because "they don't get very many views". So? Scratch is about having fun, so...
Learn how to use scratch + make good projects + have fun + help others = popularity  wink

Re: how to be popular

Draw kittens kissing each other.

I don't, thus I am not famous.

Actually, this was a stupid joke, because I have actually never seen a project of this type front paged. So it would be more accurate to say nothing, because I have no honest clue.
