Where does it say that?
I don't know what TSDR is, but reread my post…

It means too short, didn't read.

Scratch rule 3.3 wrote:

3.3 You agree to comply with all applicable laws and regulations when you use Scratch. You may not use Scratch in any unlawful way, including to harass, stalk, or defame any other person.

Censoring isn't defaming or stalking and “and unlawful way” isn't banning censoring, unless is says somewhere else that I didn't read. Depending on the use, it can be harassing but in my case it's not.

I really hope this is what you're talking about, otherwise this will be embarrassing.

I was looking at the picture you posted. I never actually read all of those rules…. :]

According to that picture rule 3.3 is: “Contains foul language or personal attacks.”

Sorry for confusion.

Ohhh, that one.

I think you know the question already.






But if you don't…

Is swearing/cussing/cursing allowed if it's censored and the real word is not actually used?
Depends on the usage. We usually censor if the word is obvious to figure out or used as a way to cheat the filter to attack another user.

Sadly, my forum signature was eaten by an evil kumquat.

…So if I do this:

This thread makes no *************************************************************************************** sense anymore.

It means I'm fine?

Swear word is very long to show it's not actually a swear word that exists yet.

Also, I was meaning in a project. Not in a comment, if that changes anything.

The above example you gave would not be fine, since it's cheating the filter to swear.

For projects, it depends. We give some leeway for cartoon censoring, but it still depends on the context of the project.

I'm not trying to use swear words to be offensive actually. It's more like how people swear when someone gets shot in the head. Less anger, more panic like XD so I gave the wrong example there. By the way, that's a really cute profile picture you have there. Just want you to know.

I'll probably be fine. Thanks

No offense, but I always found that profile pic to be really creepy. It just blinks every once in a while like it's alive.

But it IS. Not the person, but the actual logo. One day it will come out of the screen.

Whoooooooooooooooooo Scaryness stuff.

Of course it isn't. The person is in the logo, and the logo is alive. How else would it move?

gif science at its craziest.

Wait, now that I re-read the question, if you censor and don't use the real word, are you doing stuff like “$^#$#@” this. If you are, that's totally fine.

Would ******* also be ok?
I have epic psychic powers. I know you highlighted this or quoted this ;D
Nope - those aren't ok. Since this is a kids website, anything that is not suitable for any age is not ok. Using symbols to replace swear words is still considered swearing, which is not allowed.
Ok.

No - sorry. It would mean that your project had a list of bad words in it.
