Because through GraalScript, GS1, I got my very first taste in computer languages.

I used this to learn a tad of JavaScript, and I made one or two interesting things. I continued this and got heavily into ActionScript for Macromedia Flash, and I made my own Music Control script, which allows a crossfade between songs, a fade in and fade out when a song begins and ends, and can give the user complete control over what playes, when, and how loudly I guess I could make it better and add more to it.

I continued my scripting and eventually got into programming, into C++. Never before did my computer make such bizzare noises and warning messages. I'm pretty sure that's how I destroyed my computer.

Now I'm very much into computer programming, even though this poor little crappy computer can't handle much of anything I do. Amazing it even runs Graal.

I've always been interested in how things work and how things tick, so when I first started Graal, I wondered how the NPC Character Baddy that Stefan created worked. I never could understand that script, but I got into GS1 in the offline level editor and made very small scripts.

I made it to where I am today--very proficient in GS2. My accomplishments include being a very tiny, tiny part of the #gscript community, which was a blast. I strived to be a part of the Global Scripting Team, but never got that far. Currently I'm the Game Developing Administrator on Zodiac, which is pretty much all scripting and planning.

Why do I develop? Because Graal is how I got started in computer programming, and GS2 is so much damn fun.

I just wish it could do more, like make our own C#-based classes, maybe a namespace, maybe something else. I'd love to make my own functions and add them to the predefined string-type class, if that would someday be possible.

Play GraalOnline.

It's so much more fun.

Because it is fun to see your friends play with/in graphics/levels that you made. Gives a nice cosy feeling inside! :]

Cuz im good at it?
Same with why anyone sticks with anything.. they try it out cuz it seems fun (Alotta times because they want to be known for something) They stick with it, get better and better and pretty soon are one of the best and people look up to them. Its the whole idea with Power i think.. Power and being famouse in ways.

I am just curious why people would wanna dev on Graal rather then get a paying job to dev..

It's good practice for me. Plus, in an online environment you can get help more easily when you need it.

I used to develop because it was fun making quests similar to Zelda, FF.

It was a good sandbox for input and output in my creative endeavors. I don't do as much developing now - but once in a while I still do when Kingdoms needs something or a friend convinces me.
