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.

I changed my PFP. I was messing around with shapes when I got him. He’s probably one of the dorkiest creatures in the world and his name is Murphy. Tell me what you think.

  • We <3 Murphy!
  • Murphy needs some work.
  • Go back to the old PFP, please.

Thanks, I believe that there is alot of sugarcoating, but also just a general misunderstanding of why older users choose to leave. It’s not just a distaste for users having fun it’s an over community behavioral shift. If that even makes sense lol-

Jamiroquai fun fact of the day: There have been plenty add-ons to albums. With Emergency on Planet Earth, it had remixes and concert performances (granted you got the 2-cd set), with RotSC, it had remixes, a few concert performances, an edit of Stillness in Time, an instrumental of Morning Glory, and Space Clav, and for the rest, I dunno because I don’t have those sets, but it’s still nice for some extra bang for your buck when it comes to Jamiroquai.
