Eleventh Suggestion:

If your suggestion contains more than one thing, make sure they are related. If you want to post a lot of unrelated suggestions, it is better to make a new topic for each one.

For example, a topic suggesting a few new pen blocks would be OK. But if you want to suggest 20 new blocks from different categories, and maybe a few website features thrown in with them, you should split up your suggestion into more topics.

For blocks, a good rule is that blocks from the same category can go in the same topic. For other features you'll have to use your own judgement.

Hey Sigton, would you mind changing the quote boxes from this format:

To this format:

1st Suggestion:

<snip></snip>

The second one in my opinion is a lot more pleasing to look at and understand.

I suggested this previously. Sigton declined, though.

Why?

Make sure your suggestion or reply is not biased! The aim of a suggestion is to make scratch better for everyone (or somewhat close to everyone), not just for you, your friend, certain people etc.

However, just because a suggestion doesn't particularly cater to you, or you wouldn't use the suggestion, doesn't instantly mean it should be rejected. For example, don't reject a sound block suggestion simply because you don't use sound blocks. Then again, don't suggest something that only you will use, like a block that spawns the name of a random Windows version.

Basically, please be considerate of others using the website.

What's wrong with bias? If you don't like it, and your friends don't like it, that means some of the community doesn't like it because you are the community.

You've formed a paradox here.

Can you add one about what necroposting means on here (a suggestion is still relevant if it hasn't been rejected or implemented)?

Recently I've seen a lot of posts telling people not to necropost when the topic is actually still relevant. I fell like this should be mentioned somewhere, but I don't know if this is the best sticky to put it on.

Yeah, I need to update this so when I do I'll add that.

Necroposting on the Suggestions Forum

Overview
Necroposting is when you post on a ‘dead’ or inactive topic and bring it back up. There are many cases where it's not okay to do it, and should be reported. On the suggestions forum there are different rules concerning this.

Busting Myths
Let's go over the few myths that need to be busted:

-Necroposting anywhere is not okay
Like I said before: the Suggestions forum has different rules for this. Not always is this true.

-You can always necropost on the suggestions forum
No, in some cases you actually aren't allowed to.

-You must support on a dead topic for it to not be a necropost
Not true; if you're adding to the discussion, and the suggestion is relevant, it's okay.

Rules to Keep in Mind
Necroposting on the suggestions forums is only okay when:

-The Suggestion can still apply now; relevant
-You're adding to the dead discussion of the suggestion
-It's being bumped up by the Original Poster

Other cases it probably is necroposting.

So be aware next time you accuse someone.

It wasn't lots of people, it was just one person who did it on a lot of topics.

He didn't say it was lots of people…

Have you read it? I've a lot of people saying posts are bad because there in Snap, I really don't want this to happen, so want it to get noticed.

Snap appears to have this block. Would the block that you're suggesting work the same way?
