It's common sense not to spam, and most of the times those without common sense wouldn't be able to handle Scratch or much else. So I'm pretty sure by now they'd know that spamming is bad and gets them banned.

Support! I think it'd be very nice if this would be in the community guidelines because when I was a new Scratcher I didn't know what spamming is here on scratch. So I posted links to my projects in some topics until someone told me about spamming. Now I'd never spam here but I did it a few months ago when I was new. I just did this because I didn't know it is bad. If it was in the community guidelines I'd have known it then. So would really like it if this would be added!

Great idea, also explain what spamming is for those who don't know.

Isn't it already implied?

The Community Guidelines say…
“When commenting on other's projects, say something you like about it and offer suggestions.”

I found a grammar error.

But anyways, for the lack of context, I support.

Don't support
Reason: Everyone should be smart enough to know that spamming is against the rules on the internet pretty much anywhere if they don't they need to speak to an adult

On Forums dont spam on forums because a part of a website is completely diffrent to another one makes it another website it just has the exact same look and/or adress
Although it might not be true

I know this has good intentions, but it's pointles. if I wanted to spam, I'd do it. The end
Yet most of us humans don't spam, for obvious reasons, and we need not such guideline.
Also this could cause some controversy…

Still, people may not understand what spamming means here on Scratch.

Community Guidelines
“Be respectful. When sharing projects or posting comments, remember that people of many different ages and backgrounds will see what you’ve shared.”

Be respectful, do you think spamming is Being respectful? In my opinion, no.

isn't that being a jerk anyways? The whole searching-for-loopholes-in-rules-for-the-sake-of-it… non-jerks have no reason to spam.
