  • I dont like this project.
  • This project could be improved on
  • This project is too hard
1. Why report a project because it has the color yellow (there is a phobia of yellow).
2. “THIs GAYme hAZ BAhd GRAFics!” Is not an explanation to remove a project.
3. Skill issue
These are all reasons to remove these options.
Bonus: Change the “this project does not work” to “This project is broken due to updates”.

If I remember correctly, they were added because people tried reporting for these reasons but that was a while ago.

Depend on the context of 2… I feel like some can be improved on, maybe there was an inappropriate sprite? who knows the possibilities?

That's what “Inappropriate Images” is for?

It's asking something to be improved…. and weirdly this is a report option. Problem. You can't share the project because it was taken down and you have to contact scratch about it.

If you report a project for any of these options the project will not be reported, and there will be a popup explaining why it's not a valid reason to report a topic and suggestions on what you can do.

If the did that, projects would be reported for other reasons, which would go through.
By having these options, the user who tried a false report is told that thats not a valid reason to report.

I believe these options exist because some people tried reporting a project for these reasons.
However, if you try to select them, the only things that shows is this image:

They're basically FAQs in the report category selection popup, which can be helpful. Maybe the moderators received a lot of reports for those kinds of things and wanted to reduce the number of unnecessary reports being sent while teaching users what to do in those cases.

they are supposed to teach people not to be too negative and instead provide constructive feedback

Closed by request.

Just a helpful FYI - some other sites (like YouTube) also have honeypot reporting options to funnel users into teaching the site rule rules. So don't be too shocked if it you see oddball reporting options elsewhere outside of Scratch - they help to keep false reports down.
