removing the automatic credit

Maximouse

The automatic remix credit? No, don't remove it. Otherwise it would be super easy to steal projects.
About whether it counts as credit or not – of course it does. Automatic or not doesn't change anything.

Then no one would get credit, and there wouldn't be a link to the original project.

huh? credit like this is in remixes. I don't support this. sorry.

The user means how REMIX is automatically added to the title when you remix, and they want that removed, not the link to the og project.

The OP doesn't mention that. It says “remove automatic credit”.

Uh, no I don't think you read the OP, that's not what it said at all :/

Anyway, support, it would encourage Scratchers to give credit- though it should say something along the lines of ‘this project is remixed from X’s project X.' instead of being removed completely.

I can't tell you how many times I've seen exact copies in remixes with no credit, politely asked the remixer to give credit and change something, and have them say that there's already credit at the top of the page.

The automatic credit is credit, so don't tell people to give credit if the is the automatic credit.
Remixes that don't change anything are a problem – if you see one, report it. But if the automatic credit gets removed, it would be super easy to create an exact copy without credit.

In the editor, click on File in the top-left and select Save as Copy.

No idea yes, I know it's a rhetorical question

No support, that would make stealing stuff really easy, why wouldn't you want to give credit. If you don't give credit your breaking the TOU

Adding to that: the CC BY-SA 2.0 license Scratch uses requires credit, but doesn't say it must not be automatic.

I would make it easier to break the licence if it wasn't

Well,they should keep the note and credits since there are some people to thank and some notes.

For remixes, the automatic thanks message.

When remixing a project, Scratch automatically shows the original project as credit.

Also I will state, while I originally supported this post, I disagree with it now. While I do agree that people should give credit to the original even with the automatic credit, removing the automatic credit would be a bad idea and cause issues with New Scratchers who don't fully understand why they need to give credit. remixing projects, and the person who originally made the project doesn't get any credit.

So that banner on top for the remixes that says
“Thanks to griffpog for the original project griffpatch pog”?
