Scratch

Even with all the hate, scratch is a pretty good website. The community is friendly, you can make so much with it. And even Scratch itself is surprised by the creativity of the scratcher. Overall, Scratch is an underrated masterpiece.

The coding on scratch is fun and it is also a nice place to have friends(I have some Scratch friends). But the thing is, it's community guidelines have problems, most you cannot see until you get an unfair message from the Scratch Team. Even more, it's chatbot sometimes mutes you when you said nothing bad. EVEN more, it has some toxic users that never get banned. But no, I am not encouraging you to stay off. I am encouraging you to fight to change Scratch. Together, we can change it for the better!

I was ArtistMatt on scratch, I had a few games with over 100,000 views. Guess what? I was rude to someone because their project was TRASH, I told them this and they got me a 3 day ban. Next, I told some loser I was arguing with to shut up or I bot you. This loser told a few people that I blackmailed him. Brat. Scratch banned me for spamming on my own game without any context finally.

So, the good and bad.

The good: the code is easy to understand and MOST of the community is nice. Good for beginning coders.

Now the BAD. There are constantly those haters/copiers of the community or hate on your projects and profile bc they are jealous and copy your projects with no credit. Not to mention you can get muted for saying 'skype' or commenting on your own project, 'I took these screenshots on the projector so the quality is bad'. Still, mean comments go through. So, basically, scratch is used as a social media and it is good in that sense. I use it as a social media to talk during covid. BUT if you are not comfortable with a social media then don't go on.

I was Banned because I was having a debate and somehow It even stated the comment which got me banned which said I do no want to sound offensive. I was banned for 3 days and they said that they warned me but didn't? They ban you for small things. Someone called me a Maggot but didn't get banned, mean people. And the Team aren't Kind. There were studios to do with LGBT but I said something and I was banned for being mean to 8 years olds and scared them? But 8 years olds don't want to know about changing gender and being depressed? Stupid Site, I was a Kind.

First the bad way: who would ban a account thats close to 100 followers? And why would they ban someone who did nothing (IP ban 3rd day) what the! He ST sucks its the worst ST ever they need to replace them
Good way: i got lot of followers and it a good community and some of my friends have it too

It takes like 16 years for it to stop lagging and it deletes my account for no reason! And everything i search, if it has random things like running, (Do it and you will know what I mean) It just shows furrys!

Hello. I am TPRisesAgain.

So I was in Scratch for 7 years, and the old scratch in 2013-2014 is great. But then all those FNAF projects came and banned it. It's kinda troublesome, right? The UI is relatively easy to do, and it unleashed my creativity. But then MIT banned me for invalid reasons. I tried to do appeals but they ignored me for over a week.

So in my conclusion, this is an alright website, just that the moderators aren't very good.

This computer coding learning program deserves a ZERO. I got from my local library a book entitled "HELP YOUR KIDS WITH COMPUTER CODING" which is based on Scratch 2. I then signed up for an account with Scratch on my computer. But the instructions the book gives are terrible. The illustrations are very inconsistent. In addition, there are problems with the software --- like not being able to delete mistakes, choosing a new sprite only to find that my code has disappeared and I have to start all over again, and being unable to save projects in the offline version. In addition, the Scratch website provides me NO WAY to give feedback to the moderators in asking for help. They have a so-called "discussion forum", but it's junk because of my inability to contact the moderators and ask new questions on that sorry crap that passes for their discussion forum. So from the time I started with Scratch on the afternoon of Saturday, April 6,2024, I lasted only through the afternoon of Sunday, April 7, before finding out that Scratch is no good for the kind of learning I had hoped for. Goodbye, Scratch. You're a major disappointment. You're not worth the headaches.

Scratch is an online community made by MIT for children to not only learn about programming and animation, but to have fun and chat with friends. Basically, it's Facebook and Youtube combined, but techy.
You make little games, or videos, or whatever by snipping together these action and programming "Blocks" like Legos. You can do various things with these blocks, like move a character around, animate a character, or make a screen scroll. At first, it's kind of hard to understand, but you get a hang of it.
The Scratch Team and it's users are very welcoming, and their are a lot of fanbase-related things on Scratch. Anime, Gaming, Music, Art, whatever you're into, their are hundreds of thousands of people on Scratch into the same thing.
Bottom line, I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend you give Scratch a try.
