Why I was banned from Scratch and why scratch fell off.

scratch once took down one of my projects for "cult symbols"
i never knew a fictional character doing the mr beast pose was a cult pose

I'm the creator of the original "Beat Up Sonic" project you might've seen floating around since about 2011, through remixes or otherwise. In about 2019 the game was taken down for being "too violent", despite being up nearly a decade with no issue. I put it back up. Same thing occurred. To this day I can not put the original game back up despite it's hundreds of remixes still being up. Cool.

Scratch fell off INCREDIBLY hard, but what are you gonna do? Shoutout to my circle of Sonic roleplayers/artists from 2009-2014, it was a good ride. I was the user DarkTheHedgehog. Hit me up if we've fallen out of contact.

Hey dude my project got put on the homepage!
oh really which one was it--
**AMONG US CLICKER 2**

[Mikko-Maggie-More]

of course griffpatch gets to post his youtube links, he's like jesus in the scratch community

1:18 There is a thing called MASS REPORTING!! Its a group of people who report stuff for no reason, even though the projects are following community guidelines!!

[mila-ko]

why they can't just make a rule that if u making a horror game from scratch you need to make a disclaimer so kids don't get traumatised💀💀

(I kinda started a war tho-)

This is why turbowarp packager exists. Just make the game, then package it into a windows executable, then upload on gamejolt. I never have to deal with Scratch Team because of it.

I got banned from commenting for 5 minutes once.
The word?
Cover.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE WORD 'COVER'?

[BingoMakesGames]

I literally got a warning for saying don't talk bad about my friends

[GreatUsernameWowie]

I ONCE GOT BANNED FOR 3 DAYS FOR HAVING A WATER GUN IN MY

[realPurpleOrb]

The reason why griffpatch isn't banned is because he is *_literally_* the only reason why the site is up. The scratch team loves anything that lets them be lazy, and he, intentionally or unintentionally, allows them to be lazy A LOT.

when i was like seven i got banned from scratch, for saying a sentence with the word "but" in it. so immature scratch team, so immature. the sentence was something like... "I like your game "BUT", you should improve graphics". as a kid i cried :(

If you’re not popular, you can literally get away with swearing and even SLURS in your projects… I mean look at the brawl school trilogy, that joints been up for 3 YEARS. tbh I want it to stay up that game is epic :3

[e-syncrecording]

at this point, my mind tells me the best way to make a VERY POPULAR game and NOT GET IN TROUBLE by S . T is:

> make a platformer
> the platformer has to be black and has an eye
> chinese (or japanese) text

[TheCyclical]

bro this is like the roblox moderation

[unknownRFL]

I wanted to make pixel art in scratch so I looked up a video and one from the scratch team summed down to "StEaL aRt AnD uSe PiXel EfFeCt"

[Cool_Garf]

As someone who recently joined scratch (like 2 days ago), I just realized that most of my games will probably get banned since I did not read the rules 😭

[nggaming]

I once did a ban speedrun on the website after getting my main false banned. I spent over a week on a rampage making the most offensive idiotic stuff possible and they finally banned me for 5 minutes… I DID NOTHING AND MY OTHER ONE WAS GONE FOR 2 MONTHS

[rgc-exists]

Back in 2020 I was literally banned for having the word “stupid” in my username.

I had based my entire internet presence on that name, so I had to change my name to “Random Generator Codes”, which eventually turned into my current name.

Looking back, I’m actually glad I got banned, because basing my entire internet presence on a website for 11-year-olds would not be a good idea as I grew older. Frick the scratch team and their awful moderation.

been here for 6 years.
eventually on my 3rd year, i got banned for mentioning kiIIing myself.
the ban lasted for 2.5 years.
i would get an account, use it for a few months, and then they'd go "remember that thing you said a 2 years ago? well thats not allowed! we gotta take your account now!"
this happened 8 times.
