(#40)That's why I edited it
Maybe the symbol should count as 3 or more characters towards the comment character limit instead of being censored in any way.

Edit: only censor it if it has over 3 characters of that as people may be using it intentionally

I am not sure about it (since i do not know its Unicode and therefore its belonging writing system), but it may be the chinese 破折线, which is used fairly common in Chinese, as its meaning is like the latin - or :, e. g. Books - (

Yeah, ur right, except for rare cases (which almost no Chinese people learnt or care about), it will not be used in a bunch. If it, in your mentioned case, was used as spam, I absolutely agree.

Hmmm… This would be useful, as it could be used to break Scratch. But, if your going to ban this symbol completely, why not ban a bunch of of other symbols? Heck, ban the entire keyboard, it can be used to spam. Personally, no support, as anything could be used as spam. Just cause it's longer doesn't mean it should be banned. I've never seen this used anyways.

(#1)as someone with 5 of these in my username. I dissaprove/disagree. It's a symbol. I should of added way more, but it already takes so much time typing. Anyways. It's a symbol. Spam should be reported.
This symbol “⸻” is very, very long. That if you copy and paste it so much, the comment gets extremely long and may be considered spam. My suggestion is to block this symbol to prevent all of this spam and scrolling time.
Edit: only censor it if it has over 3 characters of that as people may be using it intentionally

they're talking about “⸻”. you have “_” in your username, which is considerably smaller.(#1)as someone with 5 of these in my username. I dissaprove/disagree. It's a symbol. I should of added way more, but it already takes so much time typing. Anyways. It's a symbol. Spam should be reported.

I think if the same character repeats 5 times the bot should detect it as spam.
