  • Adam are you ok? Do you need help

INTERNECION It's natural to dislike posts like this, especially on a site like code.org, but they took it way, way too far.

      @youraverage_nomo bros tryna fight with the owner 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
      @[WUT] Adam when i said error in your ways i was saying how you had worked so hard, but for what, only to be remixed mocked and forgotten, but you have finally realized it doesnt have to be that way, that you can put your heart head and soul into your projects without having to feel the burning sensation of loss.

      im poetic

      no im not
      i respect our stong and unbiased leader and i would do nothing to harm them

      Hello there!
      I see you've been struggling with the amazing world of CDO and i'm here to help!!!

      First, let me establish something. I'm apparently not a very good judge of what's insulting and what's not, so by continuing to read, you are agreeing not to start another big argument like the ones that have driven me off of this site twice before.

      CDO is a chaotic place. It's an incredible failure of too much and yet too little site moderation. CDO tries to prevent so much through the denial of chatting, commenting, and even profiles(they only give the first letter of a creator's username, XD), and yet it seems like they don't even try to take care of all the shit that's been going around. They don't even care to monitor the reporting system and take down programs by hand, they just make it all automatic.

      IDK if y'all have ever read Ender's Game. Anyways, in the book there's a strict system made to be broken. When you take a step back from CDO and begin to look upon the whole thing, it has a shocking resemblance to this 'made to be broken' system. I'm not trying to argue that CDO is a big social experiment, I'm just saying that it's so fucking stupid that the comparison can even be made.

      Let's look at the 'good guys'. Intern, if you're reading this, now would be a good time to stop.
      The 'good' people can be divided into two groups: programmers and non programmers. Let's look at programmers first.
      Programmers include people like WUTAdam. They spend a lot of time making cool projects on a children's programming website, which while I admit sounds kinda stupid, is a fun pastime. Sometimes, however, these programmers put a bit too much effort into a terribly designed website, and people take their work and destroy it. Be it through remixing or 'hacking', the work is destroyed. It's perfectly reasonable to me mad about this, but when you put your time, effort, and trust into a shitty place like CDO it's bound to hurt you eventually.
      Now the non-programmers. While i'm not gonna name anyone specifically, there's a lot of nice people(or so i've heard) on CDO who don't know what the frick they're doing. This is expected because CDO, as stated before, is a children's programming website, made for people to learn how to code. However, these people, they don't learn how to code, instead they simply plop themselves into a chat made by a more experienced programmer, 'protect' the chat, and put themselves under the title of 'good'. I can't explain to you just how annoying this is, as these people have no idea what they're doing, and they, if anything, just further incentive the trolls on CDO to hack and destroy the projects that the experienced programmers put time into.

      Now let's look at the whole CDO 'chat' situation.
      I've said this before... but... WHY DO PEOPLE USE CDO CHATS??? It's just another way for a troll to ruin a person's day.
      I get why the chats are made, it's fun to tamper with CDO's anti social format whilst challenging yourself to make a good project, but why are they actually used???!?
      It's stupid, I tell you, incredibly stupid. There's websites meant for chatting, so why use the one website built to keep people antisocial? WHY???

      And now, to wrap it all up, let's advertise KA(it wouldn't be on-brand for me if i didn't).
      Khan Academy, a place where everything is taught adequately
      Khan Academy, with pjs, html, and more
      Khan Academy, with much faster programs than CDO
      Khan Academy, with an automatically refreshing display for pjs so you don't have to constantly click the run button
      Khan Academy, with a built in chat for socializing, asking, and helping
      Khan Academy, with adjustable display sizes
      Khan Academy, with an actual voting system and projects list so you don't just see remixed shit
      Khan Academy, with really good moderation so trolls don't take over
      Khan Academy, with a giant community of top-tier programmers, innovating and creating daily
      Khan Academy, better than CDO in every way
      Switch to KA, it's better. Don't believe me? See for yourself: https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computer-programming/browse

        hold while i get google translate to read that to me
        might take a couple hours

        ah ok i see what your getting at

        but im trying to leave cdo too
        cdo is terrible for importing, exporting etc
        quite frankly, im trying to leave any sight made for kids
        i abandoned all my cdo projects long ago and im working towards leaving that all behind
        to create a new era in my coding
        and hopefully become a full scale developer, rather than just a dude on a free platform

        in other words, khan may look like paradise, but its the same money making trap, free for you, money for them

          also, literally every chat is now brendans chat

          ackvonhuelio Ok at this point stop mentioning my name in stuff drama related. Told you once I'll tell you again. Told everyone on this forum twice or I will strike you. So please explain what was the exact point of mentioning me. I would so love to hear the explanation of this. Cuz it will most like not make sense seeing that you do not know me personally

            Mate I know how to code I just aint using it. Ya know why? CUZ I AM AN ANIMTOR NOW and I am not coding as often as I used to. Therefore I can spend time on here for a little bit since my schedule is now free and I can be the admin this place needs. If people have a problem, they can always private message me specifically. Any questions?

            person
            khan academy is a non-profit orginization

            khan may look like paradise because it is paradise

              oh i didn't know that
              well in the end its made for kids and will always be for kids
              theres no point in either cdo or khan if they don't benefit me

                besides, im sure both have there limitations
                does alert("khan cant do this can it?");

                well to be fair cdo cant do it either

                the one problem i have with ka is that i literally cannot find the projects page. idk if i need to change some account setting or something but its like impossible to find
