currently, the bad word detector works on comments, titles, project descriptions, and account pages. but why not add it to the editor? you could add it to text in the paint editor, variables, talk blocks, and brodcasts. this would make it more difficult to add these bad words to your projects. sure, you can report them, but wouldn't it be better to just use the code you already made?

for example, I saw this project where a guy said he was gonna ____ my mom and kill her. (not saying that) he used the paint editor text to do this. this project was taken down, but if this feature was in place, it wouldn't have existed in the first place.

I also once played a baldi's basics game where one of the brodcasts was named “___ you”

If somebody made a project with bad words before this change is in place, they will get a notification that their project is unshared, along with every instance of a bad word. they can change/remove these things, and once the project is appropriate, they can reshare it.

wait how do I make this without including a delete brodcast button????

Support, no bad words!

Support, I once went inside a project and one of the sprites was named the hard r if you know what I mean…i'm not naming the project or giving the link tho

I had a weird friend who tried doing all the curse words and Scratch was actually able to understand the bad words and censored it. So even though it can still be seen in editor, it won't show in display. However, that's English-only. When he did it in Turkish, it couldn't censor it.

wait that might be for the text-to-speech

No support, I can't imagine the slow down this would cause when every variable, every name, every assignment needs to be checked at once.

If there's something that offends you, use the report button.

Support because yes

Definite support. I would suggest it only takes place when the game is shared - like a quick check or something. It's a minor inconvenience but I think it's worth it.
