Most AF pranks last from March 31st to April 2nd.
I meant they could make it autoplay only on April 1st.

which April 1st? Australia's April first or USA's April 1st?

I don't think april fools should ever severely impact site usability, by turning links into rick astley songs, I personally prefer fun things like useless updates and blocks shaped like cats. No Support.

good idea

I have never liked suggestions for april fools features as it just ruins the surprise, and makes it seem like scratch did not do anything original

No support, the concept is great but, the whole point of APD is the "surprise element' and I'm sure that this doesn't capture that aspect.

it does

you open up the main page and you suddenly hear the drums
This suggestion spoils everybody

But nobody will believe it's going to be done and they'll get surprised that the ST put this.

What do you mean? Rick rolling has been around and alive for much longer than you believe.
That would have been funny and novel when rickrolling was new, but everyone has heard of it and this prank has been done before (Youtube did it in 2008) and this would just make the site impossible to use. This is just a terrible and unoriginal idea.

Stop being rude. You don't need to say “This is just a terrible and unoriginal idea”.

No support. By implementing this, Scratch probably would risk being copyrighted or have some other legal issue, and also it's unfunny.

here's an idea, after like the beginning it shortly cuts of to someone saying “ok ok i'm done, you can go play this now” and then you can finally view the project

Actually, to be frank, it really is unoriginal and terrible.

No support. This might need a large process due to copyright issues. I mean sure they could add the YouTube link but it won’t exactly be an easy process without getting copyrighted. Besides this isn’t exactly the best time for rickrolls. As they have been dead for years

CapTeam2

this is funny. Support. rick roll funny. rick roll support,,,

rickroll doesn't die, everyone on scratch is still rickrolling

You don't need to say that. Just state the points of why you don't support instead of being rude for no good reason.

ScratchCatHELLO

would you like it if you opened scratch one day and all you saw was this?

no support. I just don't really understand why this is necessary and it would hurt the usability of the site a lot. plus, a lot of people have autoplay disabled on their browsers. maybe a joke announcement that includes a rickroll?

Please do not blockspam and/or link YouTube videos that aren't scratch related.

Most browsers don't allow autoplay (sound doesn't play until you interact with the site).
