Wow. This is pathetic

How can I change the title? Anyway....

Its actually not pathetic.

This is the last you'll hear from me and my outrageous rants. And censors. And more censors.

My last message of this thread; Check out my projects I'll check out yours. If you want to advertise your projects in this thread, go right on ahead buddy.  smile  I know how it feels to get 2 views, so I'll help you out.

/thread.

Re: Wow. This is pathetic

It happens. Perhaps you should look for more people to add you to their friends list. Then when your project pops up in "My Friends Latest Projects" it might catch their eye.

Improve graphics and get a snazzy thunmbnail.

It does wonders.

Re: Wow. This is pathetic

I'm in the same boat. How [removed] do add yourself projects get more views than me? The highest number of views I have on any project is four.

Re: Wow. This is pathetic

@Soupoftomatoe- Like what? Most of the games I play here are [removed] remix pages.
                           I don't see why I need to improve when others don't, and STILL get
                           hundreds of views. And how.. do you get a thumbnail?
@Hyphen- I'll stop by and check out some of your projects.  big_smile

Re: Wow. This is pathetic

Sure! I need some entries for a contest and you want veiws so this can work for both of us! Not to mention, I totally agree that the front-page should just be removed entirely because only crud gets on there now. Thank's for letting us know that you're also against the front page projects that do nothing.  big_smile

Re: Wow. This is pathetic

Nice game! I felt the same way of projects that I didn't get any views, but I got front paged twice: one because Kileymeister advertised my project on the forums, and the other got curated. Keep working on it and you'll eventually get on the front page!

Re: Wow. This is pathetic

I know how you feel dude, I have lots of projects that have like 200 scripts but like 2 veiws. The way to get more views is to spam the forums.
Plus sometimes it's all the "Famous" scratchers fault, they take up the whole front page. (And don't critisize me for saying that because you know it's true)

Re: Wow. This is pathetic

We should petition the MIT guys to put more than just 3 'new projects' on the home page

Im thinking 9?  That ought to give enough exposure.

Or giving each project like 5 minutes on the home page before adding newer ones.

Im all for this; ive maybe gotten 100 views out of my 6 projects..

Wow. That has to get on your nerves. It'll happen to everybody.

It hasn't happened to me yet, but it will.

For now I'm stucking making 2 view projects.

btw, find the key sounds boring.

also, it seems like more than half of the projects posted on scratch have little to do with programming.

I mean, that's not a problem. If people wanna draw cats... well.. that's their choice! I've heard a whole lot of baloney from the smart folk at MIT (or the moderators) that Scratch is also about remixing and drawing. Whether you agree... eh.... we're too insignificant to the giant populatino to change other people's opinions.
