Scratch

They ghost the new players by not allowing them to ask any questions, Respond to them, Or even share.It's basically like while you are struggling to try to get to the top and you finally make a good project you can't even share it to the world and you are back to playing by yourself.It's hard and I really hate this system because they also keep asking for email which annoys me because I have a school computer and I can't use their password because I don't know it.It says 404 CaN't PoSt BeCaUsE yOu ArEn'T aUtHeRiZeD tO sEe ThIs PaGe which annoys me SO MUCH even though I am only a kid I bet you would hate this also but it has good sides too! The worst part is that I can't message them back about this because new players are ghosts so cons outweight pros. I would ask for my mom to put her email but she'd never EVER say yes.It's 45/100.

I have had an account for nearly three years now and I loved the website. But recently it turned into a political dumpster fire! The ST spends all their time blocking Christians and conservatives and they let people who are ped0ph! Ler$ stay on along with people who curse (I. E. *******@mn and h3!) but they never get banned! I was banned because someone asked me my thoughts on if I think trans females should be allowed in cis female sports, and I said no because they would have a biological advantage. Then later BOOM one week IP ban! What's irritating is that my comment that got my perma banned was actually just me talking about the fact that in South Korea it's much more common to get plastic surgery, I never meant to offend people as I love Korea and I just thought it was cool that their plastic surgery actually works. I spent a long time writing an appeal and they didn't even read it! Now I am permanently banned!;-; the st needs a dose of reality since they think that telling kids to support BLM and LGBTQ is not political but kids saying they are Christian is! (I have nothing wrong with LGBTQ people, my best friend on there was one, I'm just saying that it's being hypocritical) Anyways please spread the message that I was banned. Also my first ban was literally just because I was trying to say Discord (I was talking about MLP not the app)

Well, to start off with, the scratch community is quite nice. At least, most of them. Normally, you would talk to (Toxic) Pre-teens or little kids, the better part, however, is that there are still adults like Griffpatch and the Scratch Team and they actually reply to your comments, they can instruct you and also answer your questions that are not in the FaQ section! Next, we have the coding system. It's a fairly simple system build upon Javascript and HTML5 in replacement to Squeak and Adobe Flash Player. Easy to code and also easy to use. There are some flaws between here and there but keep in mind that this is a children's website, there are quite a few limitations for simplicity and not to look overwhelming for kids. There are also many things to do there, like Game Jams, DMCEs, MAPs, and Collabs. The scratch website has a strong moderation system, for both comments and for projects, making sure it's kid-friendly. If you decide to make an account, I'm afraid that you wouldn't get very popular, and may experience burnout. Much of the community page is littered with generic games, but I can't do anything to change that. Personally, scratch is a great place, your kids might enjoy scratch summer camp, doing block coding, making your own sprites, maybe even animating. Maybe scratch will be a better place in a few years, who knows? Scratch on!
Ps: thank you ST for giving me the opportunity to be an SDS helper.

I said that a project was amazing ant the complete opposite of terrible and for some stupid reason it only sensed the word terrible and I got banned for 18 months and said that another project was good but not your best project ever but I got banned for 5 weeks and when you try to put your account in it just makes you put it back over and over and over AGAIN. Then it tells you to look in your spam folder aka useless folder that doesn't help you with anything and that someone said I was cyber bully just because I corrected someones spelling and also for correcting someones spelling I got banned for a week and said that one project could be a bit better and I got banned for a day. TOTALLY UNFAIR!

My username was just not harmful. Really, Scratch Team? And Ban me for SIXTY YEARS. Why? YOU JUST HAD TO > :(

They ban people that don't even do anything wrong and we got ip banned. > :( we want a refund its just so bad

This website is a pile of garbage they is this horrible person *******@iamqueenjam who ruined my life this user say horrible things and made horrible things about me and they also made fedish art of my roblox avatar and false reported me and GOT AWAY WITH IT please don't use scratch

So, on Scratch. The moderation honestly compares to that of Roblox moderation. If you say "Hell" a toxic 7 year old will spam report your comment on 18 different profiles and then will mass report everything on your profile and all your projects get taken down. If you set your profile picture to a certain flavor of doritos and that happens to be a 5 year olds least favorite flavor they will report your profile picture and copy and paste a fake reason off of google and the scratch team will ban you a day for it just because its long. If your profile picture is Sans then 9 year olds will start calling you a "toxic sans stan" even if you're not. And wont even let you explain why your profile is Sans. They will just invite their friends and lie about you and "the things you have done" and then they will all mass report you and you get banned for a week. Trust me, these situations aren't too specific. At least one of these three happens every day or week. But trust me once more: These are like mild on the Scoville Scale.

Scratch bans and IP bans us for absolutely no reason, and constantly people hacking others and the community has gone to crap. Maybe if the Scratch Team made the moderation team better cuz one i got banned for saying "hi" and "good". Oh and i used the report button on some spam account and i got banned for mass reporting. It's like ST are harassing me. UPDATE: Scratch permanently banned our school, house, 2nd house, library, moms phone, dads phones(YES MULTIPLE PHONES BECAUSE WE HAVE HOTSPOTS), mcdonalds down street, taco bell down street, neighbors phones and wifi, teachers phones, hotel, apartment and diner dowstairs, my phone and VPN locked every single ip address in existence. We did absolutely nothing someone was impersonating me and they even tried to google ban and capcha ban us. We almost threatened to SUE them, I REPEAT, WE WERE VERY CLOSE TO SUEING THEM. THEY MAKE FUN OF US AND IP BAN MY FRIENDS BECAUSE THEY THINK ITS FUNNY. AAAA! I AM SO MAD AT THEM! WISH THEY DIED! AAAAAAAAA HATE THEM SO MUCH. UPDATE: ADDED A VIDEO AND MORE PROOF THAT SCRATCH BANS PEOPLE FOR NO REASON THEY HACKED ALL OF OUR ACCOUNTS AND THEY REPORTED OUR EMAIL TO GOOGLE AND WE LOST OUR GOOGLE ACCOUNT. WE ARE LITTERALY JUST TRYING TO USE THE SITE, DOES SCRATCH NOT LIKE HISPANICS, ARE THEY RACIST? I THINK THEY ARE RACIST THEY DON'T EVEN RESPOND TO OUR APPEALS!

I've been doing scratch for a few years now and I'm still satisfied! I can be social and make projects and do other stuff!

You can get an account block for saying the word "CRINGE".

Does that make any sense? Saying the word "CRINGE"? That gets you a PERMANENT BLOCK?
And it was just because I didn't like someone remixing projects just to get views on their projects, since they didn't edit any of their projects. B. T. W: I also said "I will report you if you don't leave" because the same guy thought it would be funny to get 18 ALT ACCOUNTS AND SPAM MY PROFILE. Yeah, that guy's still up and going on Scratch. And I'm blocked because I just said cringe.

And don't even TRY making a new account, even if it's for your school projects, they have NO REMORSE and WILL BLOCK THAT ONE TOO. They have NO EMPATHY, NO COMPASSION, NO REASONING, and most importantly... NO TIME TO HEAR ANYTHING! They will not respond to account appeals, no matter if it's an entire essay plus a few pictures proving your worthiness, you will be blocked if they simply see you interacting with a troll. They won't ban the troll ever by the way, that's never the case. They only ban the victim.

You're better off playing BYOB or uploading games on GameJolt, or using the offline editor and sharing projects on other websites... Because SCRATCH, even though seemingly in "good graces" by school systems, is NOT the way to go.

By the way, they don't even have a user block option. What a site! No wonder there's so many trolls :D

Scratch is a good website for learning how to code. However, the website is so slow and it usually takes minutes to pull up my project.

Nothing more then just a unsupportive site mass project reporting to very young children Zero Value to Kids

I like how it allows youthful figures to code, but it also adds a social media aspect to it. I suggest that only teens should be able to use it...

It's cool. But there is a problem. If someone reports someone Roget can be a lie. That happened to my freind.

Scratch's guidelines say they allow everyone, no matter what you believe or where you're from. I made a project about Christianity, for Christians. And I get permanently banned for trying to "promote a religious agenda" It's absolutely HORRIBLE how BIAS they are. You can find many projects trying to promote, atheism, satanism, LGBTQ, and many other things that are controversial. I'm not saying anything bad about these, but it angers me when the SCRATCH TEAM LITERLY MAKES A PROJECT PROMOTING LGBTQ, which GOES AGAINST THEIR GUIDELINES. Its sad how they try and pick and choose what projects you get to make, they are trying to promote things to get kids to believe what they believe, and ban people that get in the way of doing that. Someone made a post trying to get Scratch's attention, but they replied saying "We CoNtInUe tO PrOmOtE Scratch and CoDiNg" Which is ABSOLUTELY A LIE! Scratch tries to promote these topics and bans topics they don't like. Someone calls them out for it and they can't even make a proper excuse. Please don't promote them. I'm sad I got banned, had a lot of fun until I noticed the truth. Don't use Scratch.
