Add a list of completely banned franchises.

EDawg2011

So that people know that references to these franchises aren't allowed and don't risk getting banned because they didn't know the franchise was banned.

Please note that I may sometimes make a mistake and give wrong information.

Can you please put this at/near the top of your signature and tell people that tag spam isn't allowed and it manipulates the algorithm, to start a chain and spread the word? - Thanks, @EDawg2011.

But then I had a very good idea. I used F5. See, using F5 gave me a whole new perspective and I was able to see a chest I couldn't have seen before.

Then people will just see the list, find a bunch of inappropriate franchises, then look them up. It's similar to the reason why there isn't a list of all things that the filterbot blocks.

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.

I was a Scratch Team member from May 10th 2019 to October 29th 2021.

They could add a warning that the franchises aren't appropriate. (A VERY noticeable warning.)

Warnings instill curiosity, i don't think this would be a very good idea to add, and as stated here, warnings do not align with Scratch's philosophy.

I recommend reading jvvg's essay about the scratch team before complaining, as it may change your opinion and provide insight on the topic.

The warning could say

THIS LIST INCLUDES INNAPROPRIATE FRANCHISES, SOME OF THEM EVEN 18+. PLEASE REFRAIN FROM SEARCHING UP THESE FRANCHISES IF YOU ARE TOO YOUNG.

do you really think little billly will listen to that

tbh, if you make a project about a banned franchise it probably breaks other rules anyways because the current banned franchises are just inappropriate-all-around franchises iirc

It's kinda Billy's fault if he doesn't listen to this.

Maybe this wasn't such a good suggestion.

Plenty of others have brought up the fact that Scratchers will ignore this warning, but let's think about the parents and teachers here. Will they really believe that Scratch is a good fit for their children/students if it openly lists 18+ franchises on the website?

thats true too
like, a teacher could be considering scratch for students, but then see the warning, and then get skeptical

No Support. It's like adding a list of all the swear words and expecting 5yos to not click on it

Haha baby steps

Kumquats are tasty

I started scratch in 2.0
Is that a rare thing?
SOME ONE TELL ME
(Removed by moderator - Please don't show disturbing images of kumquats)

I'm asleep like all the time…

No Support for the reasons above;
There's a natural tendency known as curiosity. People that don't know will want to know, and will end up looking it up.
Providing an easily accessible list of content not allowed on the site would make banning the content redundant.

You would be surprised to hear that they do not. Even Scratch Cat has to discuss features with us to make sure they're good — it's called the Scratch Team, after all.

Yeah, but we all know griffpatch secretly runs the scratch team; I mean, he’s GRIFFPATCH. It would be outright dumb to not have griffpatch on the team. But, since it’s impossible for a human to make such good projects, it has to be either Scratch Cat, Gobo, Pico, and the other one. It has to be Scratch Cat, because the other one is too obscure, Pico is to busy making records, and Gobo is, well, Gobo. So, Scratch Cat in fact DOES have all the power, and the scratch team is a hoax made by NASA to distract from the fact that the moon landing was fake, the earth is flat, the government is run by lizard people, and spocite is a serial killer.

Furthermore, all the “Scratch Team members” are also fake. I mean, @Paddle2See is a robot designed to reject suggestions, @Za-Chary is, well, he might be held hostage by Gobo, I have no idea about him… All the rest though, they’re just actors…
