Space/tap for the uncensored version of this image (TW: eyes) FOR THOSE WHO ARE MAP HOSTS CONTACTING ME BC I'M A BACKUP IN YOUR MAP: I'll probably still do a part if you need me to lol, just ask here! I was gonna have the image uncensored as the default but then I realized it would be pretty L if I made something disturbing front and center of my profile lol (I'll put this as my featured project once the OTA is finished) This is finally my official project to announce that I'm kinda leaving Scratch. Recently I've enjoyed having a "table of contents" for long descriptions, so I think I'll do that again, to keep myself organized and so people can pick what parts to read lol TABLE OF CONTENTS: - The future of this account - Where to find/contact me - My reasoning The future of this account: So, I'm going to be leaving Scratch, but that doesn't mean I'll never log into this account again. I will probably check it once a week or two. This account will be mostly used for promoting the comic/animated series that a few friends and I are making! It's coming along great so far, and I definitely recommend you check it out! Episodes will be shared on my friend's account: @CreativeDragonCat! Since she's doing most of the posting about it I probably won't share much. You can find more info on the series here, and even participate in creating it or make a cameo https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1038160265 ! Other than original series stuff, I'll be managing my OTA and releasing MAP parts if I have any to do. But projects with just OC art, fanart, etc will probably not get shared here anymore. TLDR: I'll still be online every week or two but way less projects Where to find/contact me: - I may be on my alt accounts @MeraTheAngel and @RavenMTA! I have other alts but I don't use them lol - I'm somewhat moving to YouTube! I'll be making MAP parts and sharing my art in community posts when I can. There's nothing on it yet, but here's the link lol https://www.youtube.com/@RavenMTA/featured - I'll be on Artfight during July! https://artfight.net/~RavenMTAA - I'm RavenMTA or RavenMTAA on other sites, but there's not really much else, I'll try to update this if anything else pops up! My Reasoning: Why am I leaving? I love this community. Scratch has been a fun and safe place, I'm so glad I grew up on here and not somewhere like *shivers*... twitter... Like honestly, I feel kind of bad for dropping my most popular project, hitting 600 followers, and then leaving. I've gotten comments from people sad that I was leaving, it's so heartwarming to feel like I'll be loved and missed instead of just disappearing. Although, I know my friends from this site would notice. I've been friends with you guys for four whole years. My gosh, I knew you guys before I even met my IRL friend group. But I know the next few years of school will be my most difficult yet (AND THEN I GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL??? IM ALMOST AN ADULT??), and I also want to work on myself outside of Scratch, so that means spending less time on it. I'll be participating in sports for the first time in years and, volunteering, learning new languages, all that stuff. as mentioned before, I'm also going to upload on my YouTube channel. My mom has forbid me from using YT at all for most of my life, but recently she's thrown that all out the window and told me to start a YouTube channel as soon as possible. It's been a dream of mine to be a YouTuber since elementary school, and now I can make that dream come true with the support of my parents! I'm going to work on myself and my future now, and I just don't want to be distracted by feeling like I have to post on Scratch. I truly loved my experience on here, I bid you all a semi-farewell and a happy life both on and off of Scratch.
