please mention that the link you provided me was from 2016 and posting there would be necroposting.

There's no such thing as necroposting in the suggestions forum.
right, but it is still considered necroposting if the thread is discontinued for a long time.

No it isn't, actually.

here. ill simplify it

when green flag clicked
start forum ::control
wait until <[forum] = [discontinued v]>
forum ended ::sensing
wait [a long time] years ::control
someone posts
NECROPOSTERSSSSSSSSS ::looks

Because of the immortality of a suggestion and the non-essential link to the poster, the suggestions forum cannot be necroposted on unless the topic is no longer relevant.

Good to know that you are saying that they can abuse their power.

Having separate rules from YouTube does not constitute a license to abuse one's power. If any moderator abused their power, they would be fired.
Unless it were a manager.
Why would they risk getting sued or lose money due to people not using the site.

But you agreed to the ToU, so doesn't that mean they can basically do whatever they want?

So we should let them break the rules and not expose them?
Why on earth did you make me look like I said something else
This looks like a BBcode mistake. I said what it looked like you said.

Then why not take down the exposing videos on YouTube?
The ST does not have power over YouTube.
So? I see no problem with naming and shaming unless it were towards someone innocent, and what if they were cheating in a way that does not break the CG?

Naming and shaming leads to drama and potential flame wars. It is best to leave moderation to the ST, who are in the best position to see the whole story.

“Cheating” is not well enough defined to debate this point further.

Managers could be fired by higher-ups, and those at the top of the ladder could get ousted if they were found to be abusing their power.

Unlike many companies, Scratch's ToU isn't written to grant unlimited power in Scratch's relations with its users. It essentially just states that they can punish people misusing the site.
