hey where are the flags from? looks like they would've been used next to locations on profiles or something?
I think they might be the wiki wednesday flags but not sure
No, this is the country mark in your phone number when you create a teacher account.

I think that the page is ST-only
I wonder what could it be? Could it be a list of every studio? :/
It's probably administration tools for studios
Probably just a bug.

That's much more likely – many invalid URLs return 403s.

I found https://old-scratch.netlify.app/
Not a scratch.mit.edu page, probably just an unofficial thing (the Scratch 1.x website is open-source).

I really hope they have this for Scratch 2.0 as well.

Is there a wayback snapshot of the old maintenance mode page?

The one that has Pico and Tera with construction outfits and says:

We're working on our servers. Scratch will be back soon.

I find this very intriguing, as I'm pretty sure they changed the maintenance mode screen in 2018/17. The only remnant of it seems to be a screenshot on the wiki.

Please let me know if anyone finds it.

(I'm thinking of reviving Scratch 2.0 even though it was less consistent because I love it. And yes, it'll be blue, not the disgusting purple color made to “hELp cOlORbLInDs!1!1!!1!1!”.)

I found this but what is it? https://scratch.mit.edu/users/griffpatch/?ref=g-tea
uh yeah anyone can make those links

https://scratch.mit.edu/users/griffpatch/?anykey=anyvalue&anotherkey=anothervalue
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Query_string

is still a valid link, so is this

https://scratch.mit.edu/users/griffpatch/#haha-put-whatever-you-want-here
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URI_fragment
I was wondering what those were called! This reminds me of a forum page with a query string like ?view=compact and I can't for the life of me find it.

Edit: I found this giant thing on Wayback Machine, but it's not what I'm looking for. I wonder if only the ST accounts can make queries with ?action=search because there are many in the archive and I'm assuming they do something if people are using these queries.
http://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/search/?action=search&keywords=Ocular&author=&forum=2&search_in=all&sort_by=0&sort_dir=DESC&show_as=topics

Edit 2 lol: I just realized that “?action=search” is a legitimate Query String for the forums! Not sure how to get it working though

EDIT3: There is no way!!! I found it: A single tiny sliver on this site map I found using 300% magnification!
Here it is: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/search/?action=show_unanswered
This view has been in use since 2013! (I wonder by who…)

I wonder if there's an easy way to find more “/search/?action=” links… The circular WBM site map is very cumbersome.
Found it This is my source of information for all of the following

Using that WBM tool, here are all the (things I would call “Various forum mod tools” maybe?) query strings I've found for scratch.mit.edu/discuss/search/:
?action=search
?action=show_unanswered
?action=show_24h
?action=show_new
?q=著作権 (Translates to ?q=copyright. Not sure if this one is a real query or not)
Also, you can add “&show_as=posts” to the end of all these queries to get a view that shows the actual OP instead of just a title with info. In my testing, these query strings only work on discuss/search/

Edit 4: One last thing: You won't be able to see this: (‹‹ previous 1 2 3 4 … 25 26 27 28 next ››) under these /search/ query links if you have a certain extension enabled.

Edit 5: Ooooo… Dustbin :0

Please, please snip if you quote this :pray emoji:
And yes, I know it's midnight. I don't want to hear about it lol.

The forums used to have a search feature, but it was removed sometime in 2.0 once the the Google-based search was added to the site (I think) and never readded once they removed that in like 3.0.

(View the post above for an explanation)
i think these are hardly unknown, they're all linked on the front page of the forums
Dang. Didn't see that. That's only show_unanswered and show_24h though. What about show_new and search?
Edit: and that one with Asian characters.

Sort of unrelated to the topic at hand, but filter issue images can still be faked even without inspect element. All you need is some software that can intercept and modify requests, a suitable browser (I used Firefox for my example, which won't come through because of the new filter blocking assets as a whole now ), and the correct certificates for said software installed.

I did this just by intercepting (stopping) the request that actually sent the comment, and setting the contents of the response from the default values that came with the request to this:
{"content":"example","parent_id":"","commentee_id":""}:
And then resuming the request.

Not sure if I or anyone else had mentioned this, but the 2002 Scratch info page and 2003 download page (in their respective order):
https://web.archive.org/web/20021102113014/http://llk.media.mit.edu:80/projects/summaries/scratch.shtml
https://web.archive.org/web/20040219052137/http://web.media.mit.edu/~jmaloney/mas714scratch/ (I am aware this was archived February 2004, but it was last modified October 2003 as evidenced by the download link “Scratch11Oct03”.)

https://scratch.mit.edu/accounts/modal-registration/ is HTML for a 2.0-era registration modal

https://scratch.mit.edu/site-api/users/set-template-cue/ and https://scratch.mit.edu/classes/student_password_reset/ both show the 503 error page
(Edit: set-template-cue is apparently meant for banner dismissal)

https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/412/delete_posts/ is Forbidden, but it doesn't show the regular 403 page

https://scratch.mit.edu/accounts/email_resend_standalone/ is probably similar to modal-registration but for account verification

https://scratch.mit.edu/classes/complete_registration completes student registration (???)

https://scratch.mit.edu/codingforall/ is an interesting 2.0-era page related to microworlds, which seem to be early versions of Scratch Design Studios

https://scratch.mit.edu/conference/2018/schedule is the schedule page for ScratchCon 2018
