So a while ago (back in 2.0-ish) “Someone created a project that was like “hey bully” and shows reason why bullying was bad and I agree, but first, it calls you a bully, and then it says “95 percent of people don’t care. The 5 percent that do will put this on their profile.” And there are ton of remixes from this that are exact copies of it ands it’s just getting annoying. I know people will say “use contact us” but the website is blocked for me.

Yeah I agree
It's copy bait, didn't originate on Scratch from what I've seen, and is literally just for remix bait for people who get easily fooled (no offense)

Pretty sure (don't quote me on this) these are already not encouraged (maybe) (citation needed) by a Scratch Team member***

copypastas are indeed not allowed on scratch

source: common sense

Phew
But I think this one's worse than a copypasta because it's like a whole remix chain of a billion projects

Yeah support
It’s another one of those “give me fame for a common opinion!!!” and it’s better if someone copies the text and puts it on their WIWO or makes a different project.

I have also seen those “whoever likes this has a crush on you” posts. idk how to feel abt those…

probably not because those are lies and against cgs

Support. The person who put the copypasta on Scratch probably doesn't even care about bullying.

i wasnt aware of this trend tbh, but it does feel like it goes under spam if thousands of these projects are exact copies

highly support.

These just clog the Scratch servers. I think in general any guilt trip project (I remember back in 2020 I saw a post that was “remix or you don't care about animal abuse” with like an injured dog) shouldn't be allowed. Like yes, spreading awareness is important, but not by guilt tripping people.
