so hi!
i had a nice concept for a game to make in scratch, for which i need cloud variables.
weird thing is tho, i can seem to make them.
if i click on create a new variable, the “Cloud Variable (stored on server)” check box is just not there.
My account is 3 years old and i have never used cloud variables before, so i dont think i couldve gotten banned from using them (apparently that can happen) so i have no idea whats going on.

Help would be appreciated!

You're a New Scratcher so can't create cloud variables yet - you need to be active for a little while, use forums etc to get Scratcher status. But cloud variables aren't working at the moment anyway.

Sorry, New Scratchers can't use cloud variables. Even if you become a Scratcher, here's the deal breaker: cloud variables are down.

oh… that was new to me.
only ever heard of the thing with ur account needing to be at last a day old lol.
anyways thx for informing me
