Hello
Welcome to the Forums

What are Stickies?

Stickies are topics that the Scratch Team might consider helpful for (New) Scratchers to use. Stickies are listed at the top of all the forums and have a a blue thumbtack as a logo instead of the normal blue dot. If you wish for your topic to be stickied, you can report the post. In “Reason” section, simply put you are requesting for your topic to be stickied.

How do I create a new topic?

Upon entering a forum, a blue button saying “New Topic” will appear in the top right corner of the forum. Click on the button to create a New Topic.

How do I post in a forum?

If a forum is not closed, scroll to the bottom of the page and type your reply in the New Reply section.

What is a closed topic?

A closed topic is a topic that has been closed by the owner or Scratch Team. That means that you are no longer able to post on that thread. However, you can report the post to request it be reopened.

Other Forums

There are private forums like the SDS forum, the SST forum, and the SWC forum which only certain people can access. The permission to enter those forums is granted by the Scratch Team.

What is a post count?

A post count is a count of how many times you have posted in the forums. You can find the number of posts you have here.

What is bumping a topic?

Bumping a topic means posting the reply “bump” in a topic so it gets moved to the top of the list below the Stickies. Bumping is used by users who want their post to be viewed for opinions/answers.
Please do not bump your post twice in a period of 24 hours

How can I edit my post?

If you have posted a post click edit in the bottom right corner of the post. If you are a New Scratcher, you will need to become a Scratcher in order to do this.

How should I report a post?

Click report at the bottom of the post and explain why you are reporting that post.

Hopefully this answers your basic questions about the Scratch Forums. Be sure to look at the rest of the stickies for more information!

Hello! Welcome to the New Scratchers Forum! This topic has been made for new Scratchers to say hello! This has been created to replace the old “Introduce Yourself Here” topic by BY147258369. A huge thanks to him as he basically made the whole layout of this topic. His original topic was getting lots of replies, so I made this to replace it.

I am not a new Scratcher but,New Scratchers will not care about discuss Scratch so, we have to comment on their project or ask if they are new if you do not recognize them.:) New Scratchers should try this easier code.

the suggestion forum isn't in the forum list, are you going to add it?

So… I didn't update my signature for over a year XP But… I left the forums, and I'm not coming back anytime soon
(and I'm not updating my signature)

Both stickied Suggestions Directories currently have 138 replies.
