Group of people &/or spam bots filling studios with projects that crash Scratch.

I have seen a group of people/spam bots “raiding” two studios with projects that contain a script that freezes/crashes Scratch (when I start as a clone, create clone of myself, delete this clone). All of these projects go by “reaper project” or something like that. What should I do to report them? Should I report their profiles? Their comments? Their projects?

I’m unsure if action has already been taken against these accounts, as I have just checked my profile and a comment left by one of their accounts has been deleted.

Wait- was that post a Tally Hall reference?

I'd say report the comments and the projects. I wouldn't reccomend reporting profiles as there is not a good option for this kind of thing.

If it gets more extreme, Contact Us is also a possibility.

Projects I want people to see:

if there's anything inappropriate on their profile (their username, profile picture, About me or What I'm working on) do report their profile
