EMOJIS and IMAGE LINKS trigger mutes when they SHOULDN'T!

Michael_M_Games

Recently I have tried posting Image links in comments but scratch MUTED me! (I stopped after I realized it was the image link that muted me)
Just about 10 minutes ago, before I submitted a forum discussion, I put an EMOJI in one! Apparently emojis from the keyboard aren't postable, so they call it a BAD WORD and don't bother. Instead, it would be better if they just put one of those orange warnings on top of the comment, like the one that tells you are commenting too fast or the one that says that your comment is too long!

I hope Scratch Team addresses this problem!

Image links to certain websites aren't allowed and triggers the filterbot becausethese sites often contain inappropriate images where the Scratch Team doesn't like. It's hard to moderate with those image links.

That makes sense

But what about emojis?

For emojis, that can happen if the emoji is unsupported
For image links, was it a image link from Scratch?

Yeah a while ago they filtered scratch image links with /get_image due to “abuse of the feature.” This might have caused that.

Oh, I understand! Tbh now this disscusion is now pointless, everything is kinda pointlless! Although it would be nice if you could have any emoji!

When I load a project, and loads the url and nothing else. I have to reload the page once or more for the project to correctly load.
