Project Theft Deterent (Project)

Are you tired of your project getting copied without credit? Complaining about the based on link being not obvious enough? Well, you have come to the right place to terminate these things!!

I have made a project with scripts that can kind of deter theft - you can see it here.

The scripts in that project will…
…allow the original project to mark the remix as a copy.

… notify whoever is using the remix that it may be a copy (if the original project owner marks it as a copy).

The scripts in that project will NOT…
..deter anyone from seeing or remixing the project. Everyone can see the project and remix it freely.

So that is my project that I am advertising today.

Technically you're saying that the anti theft sprite is inside, notifying thieves that they have to remove it first to steal the project?

But it's a great idea!

I didn't say that there was a sprite… I said that there were scripts. But finding them is not that easy.

Ok! But remember to say in the notes that I allowed you to “steal” it!

Unfortunately, I asked in the forums if the project was ok to have. However… a Scratch Team member responded saying that it was not ok to have.

So… I have unshared the project - and closed this topic.
