ban scratcher shipping

It's really creepy to be honest and it probably makes the people being shipped really uncomfortable.

Support. Also can be used for bullying.

Well, it's kind of hard to explain without me getting an alert so here we go. Shipping is the act of implying romance between two characters. Usually it's used as a joke occasionally but some do it seriously. Shipping is only allowed on Scratch if the two people are fine with it but sometimes it's done without permission. In my opinion it just makes me uncomfortable sometimes along with the people being shipped, so support for this idea.

SUPPORT. IMO shipping in general can get really annoying and awkward for some.

Ok, thanks. Support for banning shipping without consent.

This is already prohibited. Shipping 2 scratchers is considered disrespectful and can be reported, as a Scratch Team member stated. However, fictional character shipping is allowed.

Support for banning shipping two users without their consent. If they know about it, and they're okay with it, it's fine.

People ship Scratchers?

I've never heard of that happening.

But it shouldn't be allowed in the rare event it does happen.

It's possible. I saw it happen only once on my Scratch lifetime…

Anyway, just like PPL said, it is technically banned. It goes against community guidelines by disrespecting the user. Please report unauthorized shipping.

Yes, agreed.

It's also fine in case said Scratchers are actually in a relationship.

(like if someone made cute fanart or animation of them).

Arrivederci.

I live in Australia and will refuse to be shipped overseas, even if I go in fist class so I'm not as uncomfortable.

If you're not joking, then perhaps you should take a look at NanoRook's post as to what shipping is.

I agree with NoxSpooth and TheAwesomeMaster, support

At first, I wasn't sure whether shipping with consent should be allowed or not, but now, based on other posts, I agree that it should be banned. One question: I saw a project asking for people to ship the creator with others and some of the shippings were with fictional characters; should ScratcherxFictionalCharacter ships be banned?

I always make sure to make my shippings first class. Unfortunately, that means that I cannot ship procedures and lists in Scratch.

Well, I think it's kinda fine if the user is aware of it or if you're shipping the character with you.

Of course shipping without consent is no good, but…

With consent? How is that harmful in any way?

The person asking to be shipped may be acting in an inappropriate way, and they might even be a dangerous adult. I don't endorse Internet relationships, even when assuming that all people involved do not intend harm, because someone's Internet identity doesn't reveal everything about them in terms of personality. Lastly, Scratch is a programming site, not a dating site, after all. The only legitimate shipping case would be if the Scratchers were dating in real life.
