Would it be acceptable to create a new email for Scratch purposes only? i.e. A more private collaboration.
Also, I have some future block ideas. Where should I share them?

A user commented on a project that I had made.
I looked at the user's projects (out of curiosity) and I noticed they had made the same exact project, had not remixed it (so it seemed original), and not given me any credit.
I looked at the date it was last updated just to make sure that it wasn't thought of by the person on their own, and It was updated the day they commented on my project.
I asked if they could give me a little bit of credit, but I haven't gotten a reply or been acknowledged.

I was wondering if this project was against the Scratch Community Guidelines and if it would be okay to flag the project?

I was thinking about making a zombie game on Scratch, but I didn't know if it was O.K., because it would have been maybe too violent. But, my idea was for the game to be a very tongue-in-cheek, comical zombie game, containing a considerable amount of blood. The game would actually be centered on the funny dialogue, all of which would be clean, having no cuss words whatsoever. Still, I'm not sure whether the game would be O.K. for Scratch. So, I made this. It's basically a project that checks whether you are of 15 years of age or older, by asking a trick question, involving multiplication. Please take a look. If I put this script at the start of my project, will it get flagged? I'm completely fine with an NFE, or something like that. I just want to showcase the humor in the game, which sort of requires zombies. If it's not O.K., then I'll just delete the Age Checker as well as cancel the zombie project. Someone please do reply…

It is against the community guidelines. That is called project copying and you should flag it. Remember to put a link to the original.

I have a similar situation to this one, but I remixed from the copy. I have an extreme amount of progress in the very elaborate remix, and want to keep my progress, but I don't know what will happen to my remix when I report for copying.

If it was a remix, then it would qualify as a remix and not of a copy.

The remix is mine, however, it is a remix of the project that non-remixively copied the original.
What will happen to my remix if the copied project is taken down?

Wondering if the word “*” is considered a “bad word”. (Censored it just incase it is )

I am thinking about making an SDS project, but the song I would like to use has the word * in it. Once.

Swearing is not allowed in Scratch. That would mean that that song is not allowed.

* isn't a swear. Just… not the BEST word to use.

And I now know about NFE, but I'm still wondering if NFE is allowed in SDS…

Must be….

Can I get a response from a moderator or Scratch Team?

Edit: Should also say the instance its used in is: My house is filled with this “****”

Since it isn't directed at someone, it's not considered a swear. This is why I think NFE may be enough to cover this.

Edit Edit: He he he. Don't bother replying. (I mean, if you could, I'd be happy) I found a better, more kid friendly but still awesome song…….

nothing will happen,as it is a seperate project.

Is it okay to make a remix of a project but not make any changes to it? I was going to report it, but I thought I'd check before wasting anybody's time, but I couldn't find any information on remixes without any changes. All I could find was that anything is considered a remix, even small changes. But nothing about not changing anything. Should I report the project then?

Nice siggy. Sometimes when someone remixes my project they change everything but don't give me any credit. Not naming the person who did it
