Backpacks 3.0 (Public Backpacks)

reallysoftuser

I think the entire “backpacks” system could use a rework, with the ability to create and share your own public backpacks, and save other people's backpacks to your My Stuff page. Maybe you could have useful scripts/engines in the backpacks that anyone would be able to use, or just add your own art and other fun assets from your projects, it's all up to you!

Only the person who has made the public backpack can alter the contents of it

This is meant to be a new take on this suggestion I don't support: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/134420/

Supporters: (some posts have been shortened)

I like this. I would love to have a bunch of collections of music, images, whatever that are all shared and passed around. I also have grown myself a collection of assets I made myself and I'm sure somebody would want them.

How about a link in the bottom called assets, where you could search through assets. Support.

Yes i support, because it can be helpful if you don't want to have to copy, lets say a 15 block script

You don't have a supporting statement on how it's a “solution”.
dupe

Maybe “Assets, a way to share scripts, costumes and sprites?”

sorry that was just awkward wording, i edited the post.
Also, this is not a dupe at all. This is a suggestion for the ability to make new backpacks that are public to everyone.

No support, by acting upon backpacking material, what if we could intelligibly alter the material so it may be treated as unmoderated messaging?

Solution: you cant alter the material. i never said you could in the suggestion.

This solution is hood but I have to agree with GoboThePlant. It could end in unmoderated messaging

No you cant change whats in a public backpack, only the person who made it can

Actually, people could put things in it that don't follow the CGs, so it would go as soon as it started, no support.
also i think this is a dupe

Then you should report the user who made the public backpack and add details of the public packback through the text field, or report it to the scratch team via Contact Us.
