person the usual reason in code.org's community is so people can roleplay

generally nobody does anything else besides that on those games

infact, i found a recent roleplay chat that hasn't been banned which you can see here that is active as of 11:43 AM (GMT) 12/26/2022

FINALLY
LETS FUCKING GO

person

i have already managed to get myself killed

TheDev

person indeed

glezen_wolf

why tho

Varrience

glezen_wolf Why not? half the directory was spammed with those projects....
actually i do have such a rant for this occasion in my Trilogy project....
but it all basically boils down to low effort remixes that does nothing as such this goes against
CDO original goals of making it a learning environment,
sure you can still have unpublished chats i have no problem with that because your learning how it works
also when no people are online it becomes empty space making it a garbage project because it has no tangibility
I'm actually surprised that they took this long to update this into their terms

person

what i hate are those binary things idk what they are and 90% of the time they dont work

Varrience

person I actually have a better editor because i got pissed off at them, it has no UI (probably why it didn't take off when i published it) though but i have documented the shortcuts thoroughly In fact I'll link it right now https://studio.code.org/projects/gamelab/UtLZVcZnm63ZMOD8ptr3vHWOcEgY-Q6rF-Mei_18qVk/view

Mellow

Varrience
woa thats cool

person

Varrience That pretty cool much better than the ones on cdo

Fluffypoopo

I have to be honest, chats where what keep things alive now they are banned and basically any online communication without chats projects are not going to be popular anymore because the community is one of the main things that made it popular

Varrience

Fluffypoopo well if it's going to be popular with no one wanting to learn how to make things any better then they probably shouldn't have been interested in the first place most of the people who did chat on there had 0 idea how anything worked which literally contradicts everything CDO stands for! so if anything we would be better off losing those people because they really weren't dedicated to the goal in the first place. they only wanted a place to socialize; in which there are plenty of other safe and secure ways to do so. <- (read trilogy rant for more details)
yea it might be a harsh truth but drawing a clear line in the sand is for the best

Fluffypoopo

So code.org is going to see a massive drop in users

ackvonhuelio

FINALLY someone gets my point

person

yeah, well they might all just come here since they have no chats.

Fluffypoopo

Locus is based on a chat for a back bone while it is being developed but not there is no point and cdo said if I made a remix and removed the chat part they are going to ban that one too

Fluffypoopo

well I made it easier to remix but if remixed by a reando it will throw sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many codes
