Note: There is about an 60-70% chance that I'll definetely return Arright, here's the deal: I have no motivation. This is just a burnout. I'm exhausted of scratch, I've got no inspiration or ideas. I might make a few projects spontaneously, but I've got more important things to do, like run a business (The Happy Press), be a dungeon master for a group, play with my Great Dane Otto, climb the ranked ladder in Hearthstone.. Y'know, other stuff. Scratch is a great creative outlet, but it's getting worn out for me. Colette and Friends Happy Press is a comic / zine making business my friend started. We are selling at zine fests all around California (see lazinefest.com). I was using Scratch as an advertising platform for the Happy Press, but that was.. a massive failure. Now, our manager is going to help us with more fruitful ad campaigns, such as T w i t t e r (don't know is scratch is gonna have to censor that), risographs, and a few other things. Now that we have mainstream ads (er, more mainstream), I have 0 need for scratch as an advertising platform. I often check scratch just to see if I get a message, which is.. well, let me list some stuff off. Vapid, for one; selfish, and attention seeking; distracting; and overall not what scratch is about. I've been making very few projects recently, and the ones I have made take no effort or skill to make. I've been drained of most of my Scratch creativity. This community is great, but often times I'll see a profile and be.. really disappointed. They'll have low effort projects and hundreds of followers (which shouldn't matter, it's just.. really?) and that just makes me pretty angry (read: jealous). There are some amazing and genuinely talented people here, but there also aren't. See @Dhilly's 'Cringe' project for an idea / understanding. Thank you for reading, have a nice day. Actually, a week. A nice week at least.
