hi can you get rid of alerts or not;



this is for the scratch team if you get reported for anything will you get an alert or what

I'm not sure about this (never got an alert) but I think you get it from the Scratch Team when your behaving was against the community guidelines. I don't think you can get rid of them.

Thx

Yes, if you got reported and it was true that you did not follow the Community Guidelines, you would get an alert.

No, you can't get rid of alerts. Back in Scratch 1.4. (before May 6th), some people did not follow the Community Guidelines. The Scratch Team sent them alerts (called admin messages in 1.4.), but those people just deleted it and ignored it. Eventually, they ended up getting a ban. But now, anyone who receives an alert will not be able to delete it, so that they can read it, and use it for reference about the rules on this site.

Will it ever just go away on it's own? or does it stay forever?

It stays there forever.
If you would like to discuss it with them, use the Contact US at the bottom of every page.

They don't stay forever, but do stay for a pretty long time (I believe half a year?).

I know that because I've gotten two alerts (that I remember) - one was from two years ago and it's gone, and one's from 3 months ago and it's still there.

An update a while ago caused the alerts before to be deleted. But new alerts will continue to stick around as usual.

As per my post a while ago:
