Jamiroquai fun fact of the day: The tours always keep songs from previous albums. With Return of the Space Cowboy’s tour at Glastonbury Music Festival 1995, Emergency on Planet Earth and Too Young to Die were in the roster of songs. With Traveling Without Moving at the Royal Albert Hall in 1996, Hooked Up, Emergency on Planet Earth, Space Cowboy and Journey to Arnhemland were in the roster of songs. I’m not sure about the tours for Synkronized and the rest, but I have a good feeling that Space Cowboy and Virtual Insanity stayed in them.

Sad to see a user leave with my own eyes :smiling_face_with_tear:. Other than that, things are looking fine.

You know this reminds me of when I first joined. When I first joined, almost two years ago, the forums was dying or at least the topic of the forum dying was flying around. Now this topic reemerged and the only thing that is different is that many users that joined during that time, like me, aren’t new anymore. I’m probably not gonna leave yet but who knows where the road will take me.

Just having fun here is not a problem :enraged_face:
You can enjoy talking to users, making memes, and sharing random things (In the correct topics)! Don’t worry about what some MakeCoders who have left have said; this doesn’t have to be a game factory where nobody ever goes off-topic or talks about anything other than code.
WE LIKE HAVING YOU HERE!! :enraged_face: (/pos, agressive compliments :heart: )

I wholeheartedly second this-- I got into Hackclub because of Jedi, and have absolutely loved it!! :partying_face: They have a very supportive and curious community, just like here on the forums. Among the prizes (Like the 3D printer which I’m also working towards), you can also get tickets to their in-person hackathons and game jams, with travel and hotel stays covered :slight_smile: Very fun and accessible!! :sparkling_heart:

… The what?
I like to respond to all the new topics every week or so, and November has been FLOODED with all sorts of new games and users.
I think whether or not someone thinks the forum is ‘dying’ is very much based on their perspective!

We could tell. The pixels aren’t all the same size, and they aren’t square either. Maybe @CopySprite can make you a better one!

Honestly, I don’t really share my thoughts on anything, so I’ll guess I share my thoughts on the whole the forum is dying thing. Sorry if I ramble on, I’m not good at speaking.

I remember the post “the forum is dying, why?” post and looking back on it, it seems like the things people wanted (like more users coming into the forums) they regret it now. A while ago, some new users came flooding in. Eventually the people said the “forums are dying” isn’t a thing anymore and that we’re fine again.

A month or two later and we’re back where we started with the “forum is dying” again. Honestly, I feel like people are just having fun. Many people want to forums to be code and code only and I don’t really agree with that, but I respect their opinions. But I don’t get it why people are confused that the Chatting Area is being used as a Chatting Area, or that people are posting memes on MakeCode Memes. It’s called the MakeCode forums for a reason. It’s not just code, it’s actual discussion.

However, I do think people are correct when they say that people are posting random memes when they don’t belong in that area, going off topic, etc. But there’s more to it. People are leaving, sometimes temporarily, because of life, changing game engines, or simply growing out of MakeCode. So, while I don’t think the forums are dying, I don’t think they’re thriving either.

I hope MakeCode keeps living on. As for me, I’m not leaving, mainly because I don’t many places to go.

update on the @Danny_Devention situation!!

we’ve talked about stuff, and he’s for sure coming back to the mainstream stuff on the forums soon, just to stick things out and finish what we can. As soon as that is done though, we don’t really have an excuse to keep using this stuff, but we’ll stick around until our bigger projects start releasing. yeah. thanks for the support guys, and for everyone that helped clarify some things he was worried about.

This isn’t just a forum thing though, where we are at the seasons changed kinda aggressively and the less sunlight/cold made him kinda sad is all. Now that we’ve started taking our seasonal vitamin d’s, were doing better.
