Five Nights at Freddy's
Well I`m not going to speak for all the Scratchers who remixed or made there own FNAF Projects, but FNAF 1, FNAF 2, FNAF 3, and even FNAF 4 were all our top projects - lots of views, lots of favourites and lots of remixes. I`m not gonna complain too much, but what i`m saying is actually true. My FNAF 1 had more than 2200 view, and just over 30 favourites and hearts. I know it is a scary game, but then just remind all Scratchers that the game is frightening, and that they can risk it and play the game. Maybe only people who have a Scratch account can play it, and the people who don`t have a account isn`t allowed to play.
Please unblock the game!
Kind Regards,
HenkiPenks
P.S Please answer.
Please don't put the game on scratch. You're basically stealing a game and putting it up for piracy. Why don't people just buy the game if they want to play it?

Five Nights at Freddy's
Over the past year, the Scratch moderation team has been thinking (and rethinking) our stance on Scratch projects that feature the popular video game Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNAF).
When these projects started appearing in the community, we heard from a number of Scratchers who questioned the appropriateness of these projects on an all-ages website. We’ve continued to hear from Scratchers, teachers, and parents who have expressed concern about these projects.
Which aspects of the games can be considered inappropriate according to the Scratch Community Guidelines? 1) Graphic content: Many projects contain disturbing imagery that can be seen as too intense for Scratch. 2) Backstory: The plot of Five Nights at Freddy's is rooted in murder and kidnapping. 3) Jumpscares: Frightening images abruptly flash on the screen.
What’s the impact of this content on Scratch? Multiple school districts have blocked access to Scratch. Several parents have reported their children having nightmares. A number of community members feel uncomfortable browsing Scratch because of this type of content.
In the coming weeks, the Scratch moderation team will begin to unshare some “Five Nights at Freddy's” content from the website. We will start to unshare emulations of the game (i.e. Scratch projects designed to be replicas of the game), since emulations of the original game contain much of the game’s original scary content and background story.
Content moderation is difficult. We want to ensure that you are all able to express yourselves while also balancing the needs of the community. We understand that unsharing and restricting content is no fun — but we hope you understand why we have decided to take this step to help make sure the Scratch community remains a friendly site for people of all ages.
Thanks,
Scratch Team
FAQ:
Why not implement an age appropriateness rating system on Scratch?
Everything shared in our community should be appropriate for all ages. Any type of age restriction placed on a project by the Scratch Team, community members, or project authors isn’t aligned with this philosophy.
Can I put a disclaimer on my Scratch project to warn people it's not for all ages?
Everything shared in our community should be appropriate for all ages. Any type of age restriction placed on a project by the Scratch Team, community members, or project authors isn’t aligned with this philosophy.
Will all Five Nights at Freddy’s content be unshared?
Nope. We’ll only unshare projects that violate our Community Guidelines. For instance: An emulation of the game containing all of the elements described above are not okay. On the other hand, a Freddy Fazbear dress up game? That’s probably okay.
Will this lead to my account being blocked?
Nah. No worries if you created a Five Nights at Freddy’s project in the past. However, we ask that you do not reshare the project if it violates the Community Guidelines.
Will I be able to reshare my project?
If you remove the parts that make the project inappropriate — the jump scares, the scary backstory, the frightening images, or any other content that isn’t appropriate. If you are unsure if your project is reshareable, you can email Contact Us and we will reevaluate your project.
This definitely seems like a good idea. It also prevents people from pirating the game.

First of all, FNAC is not scary. it's cute. and BTW, plz stop censoring it. It's a kid's game for ages 8-10, It has no scary images and it removes tension. also the 1-frame jumpscares do not surprise or scare anyone at all. and second of all, I have 2 fans of this game: @FunFoxyScratch , and my brother, @cutepickles108 . I will put It on gamejolt and possibly get markiplier to play it. so do not ban this adorable kid-friendly project. and yes, I am right now, sending hate-mail to you, scratch team. so back off, and uncensor my project.
Kid… the games are not kid friendly and are against the guidelines. Putting your game on Gamejolt is a better choice. Send them hate mail… go on… watch yourself get banned

please everyone stop hating on the scratch team, FNAF games aren't totally banned just the scary ones are. anyway there are a lot of other types of projects you can make. Also I don't like fnaf project thumbnails. Why can't you try and make something new you might like it. And the oh I worked for days on this argument is wrong, because its risky making FNAF projects.

Hi there! I recommend taking a look at the FAQ section of the original post in this thread. For example: Even FNaF Fan-art ?
Will all Five Nights at Freddy’s content be unshared?
Nope. We’ll only unshare projects that violate our Community Guidelines. For instance: An emulation of the game containing all of the elements described above are not okay. On the other hand, a Freddy Fazbear dress up game? That’s probably okay.
I hope this helps!

Hi there! We suggest asking yourself these questions: Does it contain the murder backstory, are the images frightening, and are there jumpscares. If the answer is yes, I'd say it's likely not okay. If it doesn't contain those elements and doesn't violate any other Community Guidelines, you're good to go. If you're unsure, I'd suggest reaching out to Contact Us.
