Is it against the Scratch rules to use code to block other Scratchers

ipopo

Hi,

I have always been wondering if it is against the Scratch rules to use code to block a few scratchers from running my projects my inserting this:

when green flag clicked
if <(username) = [scratcher's username I want to block]> then
forever
stop [all v]
end

end

I don't really know… probably?
Even if you used a script like that, they could always just log out and run the project that way.

But if they log out, they can't use cloud data.

Also, some of my projects record the usernames of people who accessed my project, so even if they use another account with “scratcher” status to access my projects, it wouldn't take long for me to block them, too.
