Hello MakeCode Community!
The mod team wanted to take a moment to remind everyone of some rules outlined in our Code of Conduct, which you can find here: MakeCode Forum Code of Conduct - Arcade - Microsoft MakeCode. We will be enforcing these rules more strictly going forward.
Stay on Topic
This forum is a space to share everything MakeCode. We love the community that has emerged in this space, but we are not a social media platform. We realize there are still things that members of the community really enjoy sharing and celebrating, so here are a couple of existing threads where you can go for more social-type things:
- Wanna just chat with people you’ve connected with in the community? Here’s the chatting area: Chatting Area! Have fun! - Arcade / Show & Tell - Microsoft MakeCode
- Just joined the community and want to let others know? Not going to be as active on the forum for a bit and want to share? Here’s the Comings and Goings Thread: Comings and Goings - Arcade - Microsoft MakeCode
- Excited about the fact that it’s your forum anniversary day? Just got a badge that you’ve been working towards? Post in the Anniversaries, Cake Days, and other Celebrations Thread: Anniversaries, Cake Days, and other Celebrations - Arcade - Microsoft MakeCode
- Wanna post a devlog about your project? Please post in the appropriate target category: Arcade, micro:bit, or Minecraft. Remember, one post per project!
- Also, keep a lookout for our Topics of the Week. Those are a great place to get to know your fellow forum members without hosting specific Q&As or revealing too much information about yourself.
In an effort to reduce noise on the forum, we are renaming the Blog category to represent it’s original purpose of allowing our team to share information about the “MakeCode Blog” (which can be found here: Microsoft MakeCode Blog). Only admins will be allowed to post new threads in this space, though you can still reply to existing ones.
We want to see the things that you’ve made and we love seeing collaboration. But if you’re trying to talk about your profile picture or favorite flavor of pop-tart or post a Q&A about yourself, those posts will not make it through moderation.
Clear and Concise
As noted in the Code of Conduct, make sure that you’re posting in the right category before sending off a post. It can be frustrating for others to find a post about Minecraft if they are looking through micro:bit posts. If we see a post that doesn’t seem like it’s in the right category, we will ask you to change the category before letting the post through.
Also, it’s possible that the question that you’re wanting to ask has already been posted on the forum. Please take a second to search the forum for answers before posting something new.
As a last note, remember to be nice! Before posting a reply or thread, make sure that your post is something that will enhance the conversation and community, not bring down the energy.
Thanks again for being part of this community, now get back to making!!
- The MakeCode Team
