I think the following quote from the original post is unique enough from the other topic to not be a duplicate:

True

How would anyone who's eliptic or non-eliptic know that there is an option? I never go on account settings to check out for updates, neither will they. The truth hurts, but this is still a duplicate.

This explains more and is more unique. Also, it would be there when making an account.

I just thought of someone (although I think the OP already says this):
I think when you first join Scratch, it should have a checkbox that says “I'm epileptic” and/or has an icon of a crossed eye, so selecting that would let the epileptic user see those warnings.

Being nice? This is talking about epileptic warnings.

I think it's a good idea if we add a epileptic warning to projects with flashing lights, as something like this might end up saving lives

There should be a box that you can tick that says “this project contains flashing images”, and a question mark that explains about epilepsy once clicked on, it should be something like this: “Flashing lights can cause injuries or deaths to epileptic people, please tick this box if your project contains flashing light”

There should also be a tickbox that says “I'm epileptic” when creating an account, if you tick it, you are banned from using projects with flashing light, this option can be toggled after the creation of the account

If you did not tick the box, you will receive a warning screen when opening a project that contains flashing lights, the warning screen should be similar to the loading screen except it is red and says “Warning, this project contains flashing lights, do not play this project if you are epileptic” in large font

I know you can add the warnings in the description, but not everyone is aware of the issue and not everyone read the description before playing a game

It is mandatory to add a epileptic warning if your project contains flashing light, and there will be a report option for projects without one, epileptic warning will be automatically added if enough people reported a project (similar to auto censoring) and the creator will receive an alert

Being nice by letting epileptic people know that the project may be hazardous to them.
