Farewell, @frandev 🫡 > [@CopySprite](#): > > Farewell. 🫡 I once again thought you were Lucas. If your going to take someone’s pfp actually change something noticeable. At the resolution the forum is displaying it at, it looks the same. Maybe change the hair color to blond or something color wise. (you don’t have to do any of this and I’m not trying to sound rude if I even am) ---

Have fun on your trip, @jackal ! I love that state … particularly the western half. One of these days, I’m going to take a train from Chicago to Montana on Amtrak’s Empire Builder and enjoy the scenery. Beautiful part of the country! ---

Hey everyone! I’m finished with all of my exams and I’m back now! I hope I didn’t miss anything important. I’ll be posting updates to games I’m making now regularly. Plus, I’m releasing a new game (which might be my best game yet). It’s releasing soon! -Octodemon ---

Yeah, I don’t understand this specific part: “not to mention that most new users these days.” It’s kind of being annoying when people always think that new users are the problem, which makes me feel like **I’m the problem.** just because I’m new doesn’t mean I’m going to argue all of the time. It’s not fair to be scolded by older users because they think we’re inexperienced and just people who argue. It’s not so nice. ---

I say… not gonna happen. I’ve been slowly losing dedication for MakeCode. It’s extremely limited, 100 blocks lower the FPS a lot, limited to only pixel art, it’s hard to make animations, people being off-topic, people arguing for no reason, I’m going to leave now. Goodbye. -NeoStreak (Why did I even put this here?) ---

way to stir up the conversation. > [@NeoStreak](#): > > It’s kind of being annoying when people always think that new users are the problem, which makes me feel like **I’m the problem.** You don’t think that there is a reason, do you? we’re not savages who don’t accept outsiders. Besides, in this case, the newer users **were** the problem due to the number of off-topic posts being made. I say “were” because this issue was resolved several months ago. I don’t understand how you feel offended by posts made several months ago catered to people who are not you. That’s not to say the old users didn’t make off-topic posts as well. The Chatting Area has existed long before any of the newer users arrived. The problem was that the rate of off-topic posts was exponentially increasing, leading to a generally lower forum quality as now people are more focused on talking and socialising than creating games and such. > [@NeoStreak](#): > > just because I’m new doesn’t mean I’m going to argue all of the time. Also, no one accused you of anything. Stop trying to victimise yourself. > [@NeoStreak](#): > > It’s not fair to be scolded by older users because they think we’re inexperienced and just people who argue. It’s not so nice. You **are** inexperienced. It says you joined 3 days ago, even though supposedly you just left about 9 minutes ago at the time of writing this post. No one even mentioned arguing, I don’t know where you got that from. ---

There was [code.org](http://code.org), tinker , Scratch, Unity. All with much more potential than makecode. Why did you choose makecode then? ---

> [@NeoStreak](#): > > It’s extremely limited Sometimes MakeCode can feel limited, and I completely understand that. If you want to make it feel less limited just use extensions! They really help by making coding easier. > [@NeoStreak](#): > > 100 blocks lower the FPS a lot Here is a project with no code ![IMG_6488](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/9/f/9f52d9eaefea81f70686b400b03d54fe47f7c2fb.jpeg) (It’s getting 1348 fps, you can see if you check the bottom left corner) ![IMG_6491](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/7/c/7c3c226b6d1109fa755fd9f411e03b148b54f462.jpeg) ![IMG_6490](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/9/b/9bf4bb3cfad3512777959dccfe04c61b91288761.jpeg) Here’s a project I’m currently working on that has over 2.6k lines of code (which is about 1200 - 1300 blocks) that’s getting 470 fps. Yes, a major fps drop, but 470 fps is still great. (Keep in mind I was also running both of these projects on my phone when testing for fps) > [@NeoStreak](#): > > limited to only pixel art Finally, when you search up MakeCode on your browser this is under the website description ![IMG_6493](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/9/a/9a1a6e5e2d982b7d589138a756747ad00030f1f5.jpeg) MakeCode is a _retro_ game editor, so of course it’s only limited to pixel art. And while it may seem limiting, I think it’s what makes MakeCode special and different from some other game editors! I hope you found this helpful to you in some way. -Octodemon ---

Listen, this forum isn’t perfect, nor is it always positive. But maintaining a negative attitude won’t change things for the better. I understand that sometimes newer users can get a bad reputation. However, portraying yourself as if the community has a “vendetta” against you and other new members is quite self-centered. > [@NeoStreak](#): > > It’s not fair to be scolded by older users because they think we’re inexperienced and just people who argue. It’s not so nice. You’re right; it wouldn’t be nice to be scolded unfairly by older users. But nobody here has done that. Members like @Taser have taken the time to share useful advice with you. That’s not scolding; it’s educating someone who is inexperienced on this forum. Another thing, those posts about newer forum members weren’t directed at you. They’re old and aren’t relevant, and it seems you completely misunderstood them altogether. We’ve explained this to you multiple times, yet you still feel wronged. It’s annoying. Plus, you responded to Jupiter’s old comment about wanting to improve the forum’s atmosphere (which was posted when newer users were causing issues) with “I say… not gonna happen,” as if you didn’t contribute to the negative mood here. And also dude, you wouldn’t even know if it’s gonna happen. You’ve been on the forums for a couple days, for all you know, it could’ve been that way until you came along. > [@\_jupiter](#): > > we are going to take back the forums, one step at a time. > [@NeoStreak](#): > > I say… not gonna happen. Neo, **you are the problem.** Your attitude, selfishness, and lack of self-awareness is the issue. Not newer users, not Makecode only having pixel art (whatever that means), and **not us.** With that being said, God bless you @NeoStreak, wish you the best. That’s all I have to say. ---

ok guys I think the response of neoStreak was pretty awful but at this point this kinda suspiciously resembles more of witch hunt rather than a criticisms for a bad opinion some one shared, so just try chilling down with your responses because I can’t imagine what this guys going through right now reading all of the responses right now. ---

I respect your opinion on my response. However, my response was calculated and direct. As I previously mentioned, I’m not “out to get” anyone. I just called them out on certain things he said, nothing wrong with that. ---
