hiiii guys!! so yeah, i'm leaving :( but don't be sad!! this has been a long time in the process. let me tell you why. i have been on scratch for eight years (yikes, ik) and i just kept coming back. it is/was low-key an addiction and especially now. so as many of you know, i'm now 16 years old... which is technically too old to be on scratch. the recommended ages is from 8-16, and yeah i've reached the peak. i don't think it's exactly healthy for me (no offense) to be spending so much time and getting so affected by people who are so much younger than me. i was having a conversation on here earlier today and i realized i probably shouldn't be so emotionally affected by people who are so much younger than me and people that i don't even know. although i love you all and the time i've spent on here, i am pretty sure it's time for me to move on. another thing is that i am going to be a junior in high school next year, and a lead in my school's play (i'm going to be on a billboard!) all while balancing 2 online classes and 8 in person classes and studying for the ACT and the AP classes and preparing for the play and choir concerts. if you can't tell, i am going to be really busy. i really don't have time to manage all this as well as the drama and stress of producing content on here. that being said, i might continue making sets on @hopeless-romance because i think it's really fun and unique, so reach out to me there!! i am beyond devastated to be leaving this community. i think you are all wonderful and lovely people. i would list people but i don't want to leave anyone out, so i will just say i will miss you all so much. consider this a celebration of my time on scratch!! i will miss this site so much. with all due love and respect, lucy xoxo 9 / 9 / 24 sooo i left a month ago... and yeah i guess i got out in the nick of time, yikes... i know no one cares about my opinion, but i'm really sad the community was basically destroyed by that dumba** "election..." people are leaving left and right, it makes me rlly sad! i mean i am glad i left because my life has been less stressful, but the drama is so unnecessary and i wish people wouldn't leave :((
