Hi guys, we love to see people working together but please remember to be **polite and patient** when asking for help. No one on the forums is required to help you, and it’s awesome when they do! Some general guidelines to successfully collaborating: - Give as much information as possible when asking for help. **Describe your game in detail** , and explain what you are trying to do. - **Only ask once.** It may take users some time to respond; do not spam or repeatedly ping users. People may help for a bit, then go do something else, and you should be respectful of others’ time. - **Participate!** We all need to ask for help sometimes, but if you start a project you should also be contributing to it! And in general, please adhere to the [MakeCode Forum Code of Conduct](https://forum.makecode.com/t/makecode-forum-code-of-conduct/1729). We’re excited to see what awesome games you make! ---
