I wanted to say this...

I just wanted to take the time and thank the people who made Game Editor. I’m sitting here making the games that I wanted to make (fighting games and everything), and I don’t have any real knowledge of programming nor am I some kind of math wiz. But, I’m just using everyday common sense and logic. That’s very good. I went ahead and bought their professional version. It was about $95, but I was glad to pay that. It was my way of saying thank you.

I’m still wanting to learn how to program (and I think Game Editor is good inspiration to get people to want to learn how to do that too). I’m trying to look for ways to do that. Hmmm, maybe I could start with an easy programming language like Liberty Basic or Python. Can anybody give me advice on that? Maybe there could be an easy programming language to jump into.

Well, in this case I'd recommend C/C++. Usually it's not that easy, but in your case it should be because you use it (or at least partially) when you use GE.
C is not very different from the script featured in the Game Editor script editor. I just got myself a huge C/C++ book/reference and it was really fun reading through a (usually boring) book.
Plus, C/C++ is very, VERY powerful, commonly known as a hacker language, you can do almost everything with it (or was it everything?).
(Note: Makslane developed Game Editor using C/C++.)

And more, if you want to learn C, you can start writing Game Editor scripts, and later, you can go into the Game Editor source code to take a look in some C/C++ code!
