I have reported 2 topics in Bugs and Glitches forum because the OP blockspammed, making it hard to understand the bug. (Yes the OP is the same guy who made the “What If I Am Disrespectful” thread here.) I just wanted to make sure they were reasonable and I wouldn't get alerted for reporting blockspammed threads.

What's Block Spamming? Is It Something Like

when green flag clicked
say [BLOCK SPAM]
say [BLOCK SPAM]
say [BLOCK SPAM]
say [BLOCK SPAM]
say [BLOCK SPAM]
say [BLOCK SPAM]
say [BLOCK SPAM]
say [BLOCK SPAM]

Yes, the OP, or a responder spams blocks to say stuff- repeatedly.

when green flag clicked
say [This is blockspam] for (2) secs

Also I'm assuming they got warned about it and made that topic

That's actually not blockspam, since it's on topic. Some people just use Scratch blocks as a type of font, which is okay, but not recommended as it takes longer to load the page.

They mean posting

when green flag clicked

on a random topic, which is blockspam

Using blocks to type normal stuff is blockspam

Sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but that's wrong.

Ok I will make a better example

when green flag clicked
say [I like cats] for (2) secs
ask [Do you like cats?] and wait
if <They like cats> then
say [Me too]
end

no I didnt get warned about blockspam, just some dude keeps blockspamming in his topics- yea its a way of text- but it does get annoying- especially when they use it to type whole sentences- making it hard to interpret what they are saying.

Know I mean the person who blockspammed got warned so made a QaS topic being angry about it whilst blockspamming

oh, ok

Blockspam:

say [Hello] for (2) secs

say [How are you?]

This is an example of blockspam.
But this is okay:

when [space v] key pressed
show
when [a v] key pressed
hide

This is okay. The Scratch Blocks were made for showing people how to code stuff (you know)
But blockspam is when someone uses the Scratch Blocks to talk and stuff (see first example)

Yes, I see that.

Just to clarify:

This is in fact blockspam

But this:

kaj wrote:

when gf clicked
ask [TELL ME HOW TO USE CLOUD VARIABLES] and wait
do (answer) :: custom

is not blockspam. However, I don't think people should really do this. It's not against the rules but it's extremely annoying.

There are a few types.

Reportable:

when green flag clicked
move () steps//as irrelevant

Non-reportable:

when green flag clicked
Haha i Get
To Use Scratch
Blocks Because They're
Not Reportable Lol//It isn't reportable but spammy and my eyes bleed to that colour.

The threads the guy made was just a longgg list of scratch blocks making it hard to understand what the bug was in detail

That is reportable, though. If it's really just a font, that's like you saying:

Haha I Get To Use Scratch Blocks Because They're Not Reportable Lol

This is spam, off-topic, and doesn't even pertain to the question. The blockspam version is spammy, off-topic, and not pertaining to the question too, but with a new bonus: it takes longer to load. Now, that in and of itself is fine…. but it has no point if it is just spam.
