URGENT! HELP! I closed a topic and it's been merged! I want to reopen theirs, but close mine! What do I do?
Hi everyone!
Yet another wrong thing…
My topic was merged with DonutsDoe's topic, and I closed it. Now it's closed. What do I do??? I want to close mine and reopen theirs!
(This is my first time closing a topic)
https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/880626/
I'll edit this soon, I'm posting early in case I get reported. I don't want to be! Can someone help? Please help!

reporting is not a bad thing on the forums, it's literally just used to contact st
they won't penalize you at all unless you're genuinely breaking guidelines

I could put it in a doc though
