bold italic underline and strikethrough will be on comments, to use them, highlight the text part and click the button reading “text styles” and select a text style!
That's just #4 worded differently.

No support for all of them.

We're talking about comments, not forum posts. Comments are meant to be typed out quickly, I don't really expect a lot of use of these new features. Plus, there's the potential of people spamming (and making their comments extremely bright and distracting) or posting inappropriate images.

I agree that they aren't really meant to be crazy big things (the comment char limit is 500 vs 200,000 char limit of forum posts…)

currently, we only have on comments basic text and emojis.
what I want is the ability to make comments more custom.
I'll explain later.
1. changing the text font.

I want the ability to be able to change the Font of your text in comments, the fonts would be the ones from your computer, to change the font, select from the bottom bar “change font”
SomeProbably almost all fonts are copyrighted.* 3 points

2. changing the text color.

this is on the forums but not on main site comments, just highlight the part of the comment text you want coloured and click “change color”
No Support. There are just too many colors. 3 points

3. pictures in comments.

click “import image” from the bottom bar and select a image, if it detects the photo is inappropriate, it will block it.
How is a computer supposed to detect if it's inappropriate? 5 points

4. some BBCode

quote/ center/ bold/ italic/ underline/ /strikethrough and code/ will be on comments
Those could be used for spam. Still, it could make comments more interesting. 6 points

5. More emojis

Here they are: ~ ~ these should be on main site comments

Support, there are very few Scratch emojis that I know about. 9 points

6. scratchblocks

to use scratch blocks, click the button that says “scratch blocks” and select a block!
There is a such thing as “blockspam” on the forums. It could also be used to clutter the site. 2 points

7. text styles!
bold italic underline and strikethrough will be on comments, to use them, highlight the text part and click the button reading “text styles” and select a text style!
That's just #4 worded differently. 6 points

8. lists.

lists should be on the main site comments, but they are not, to use it, click the list buttons and type away with a list!
Can you please add more detail? I don't understand at all. 0 points
TOTAL: 34/80 points

Edit: Removed an answered question.


a list is a item on forum posts that looks like this:

  • 1.

  • 2.

Duplicate. In fact, this was mentioned as a dupe before but apparently nothing happened. I'll see if I can get the topics merged.

Support for-
*Italics, Bold, Underline, and Strikethrough
*More emojis
*The first one IS BBCode
*Scratch Blocks IS also BBCode
No Support for:
Editing, Shorten Links, Line Breaks.
A way I would see Scratchblocks be used:
User 1:
I think this could really help improve your project.
superhelpfulscript
Project Owner (User 2):
That does seem like a pretty awesome script, I'll add it to my project *That uses the more emojis feature if its added, or it just stays as a :)

Eh, not really.

BBCode contains these features but make no mistake, italics, bold, underline and strikethrough are not BBCode

  • Italics and Bold and Underline and Strikethrough
Support - this will make for some basic text formatting and a good starting point for putting emphasis onto comments.
YouTube uses a subset of Markdown for comments, namely, *bold* for bold, _italic_ for italic and -strikethrough- for strikethrough. Scratch comments can have a bit of a larger variety, though.

12944qwerty wrote:

  • More emojis - Maybe change the emoji formatting
Support, so long as the emoji isn't inappropriate for Scratch (think the emoji). Emoji formatting should also be changed, from _meow_ to :meow:

12944qwerty wrote:

  • Some BBCode?
How about a subset of forum BBCode, such as having the formatting options from the start as well as inline code? Kinda like comment markdown on Stack Exchange.

  • Editing - Could be only for scratchers or trusted ones

Za-Chary wrote:

6.1 Delete or edit your comments everywhere
The inability to delete your comments everywhere is put in place so users do not post inappropriate comments or spam comments on other users' profiles, projects, or studios, just to delete them later on. In contrast, you are not really likely to spam your own projects or profile. The only benefits to this are to remove comments that you did not mean to post, and to fix spelling errors. The former could be solved by thinking carefully before posting any comments, and the latter could be worked around by typing slowly, and stating your mistake in a reply to the comment. This also applies to forum posts; that is, a feature for Scratchers to delete their own forum posts will not be implemented.

Editing comments could similarly lead to comment manipulation, such as a user commenting “I like this project,” waiting until someone replies with “I agree,” and then editing the original comment to say “I hate this project.” Allowing Scratch Team members to view the edit history of a comment does not make it easy to moderate, since then they have to look carefully at the context of each edit, which takes time.

  • Shorten links

Za-Chary wrote:

Someone could shorten a link to an inappropriate or malicious website, and no one would be able to tell what it is without clicking on it. By then, it may be too late — a device could be full of viruses or a child could be scarred by disturbing imagery.

12944qwerty wrote:

  • Line breaks (just make breaks that shorten into one break for lists)
Anyone can easily spam the Enter key and other people will have to scroll through it just to see other comments. No support.

12944qwerty wrote:

  • Scratch Blocks
While this would be a cool addition to comments, the character limit will have to be raised first.
