Bc we already have a good url, and the point of the forums are to discuss. If we wanted to transfer the URL to that, you'd have to change a bunch of other URLs too. (50000+) Because of all the topics created, and then the posts on the topics.

It'd just be hard, and we already have a fine URL that people know.

Hope this Helps!

No support, this would be a nightmare for the Scratch Team to implement, just think about how many topics there are! Not to mention, a URL like that is unnecessary, we already have one that works perfectly fine.

How about, redirecting forums.scratch.mit.edu to scratch.mit.edu/discuss

There's no need to create an entire subdomain just for a redirect.

No support.

Why is this needed, exactly? This would be incredibly difficult to implement, since there are over 5,000 forum topics, and there's nothing wrong with scratch.mit.edu/discuss.

I don't think this is needed. The current URL also resembles what we have for projects and studios

scratch.mit.edu/projects/1 - for Projects
scratch.mit.edu/studios/1 - for Studios
scratch.mit.edu/discuss/1 - for Sub-forums
scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/1 - for Topics

I don't think it would be difficult - we aren't moving the posts anywhere, only changing the URL.

Again, there is absolutely no point in doing this. Just an unnecessary burden for the Scratch Team to handle.

No support. If you have any reasons, please explain what they are.

This is my forum signature, here it's okay to… forget it, you've probably seen hundreds of these signatures before.

a more useful change would be /discuss/topic/:id –> /discuss/topics/:id (and the same for post –> posts) to match /users/:name and /projects/:id

disclaimer: sometimes my posts are pretty critical of the scratch team (especially my older ones), but i really do scratch & scratch team. jvvg made a short essay thing about the scratch team, which is a pretty good read, if you want a different perspective for the scratch team's actions.

So why is scratch lab at lab.scratch.mit.edu and not scratch.mit.edu/lab?

Scratch lab is it's own thing, not totally part of the scratch community. It even has it's own color scheme. (that greenish color)
