Don't call it “elif”, just because it's used in Python doesn't mean the name won't be confusing.
The block (renamed) may just work but maybe it will be too cluttering with the “+”s? It's useful but will require reorganization…

bruh they can say elif chill

Knightbot63

Sooo
Like python with elif's?
Well, I do like it but the workaround tho

if <> then 

  

else
if <> then

end
end

Though I'm not copying and pasting tons of if thens and I think this can be useful for better organizations.
So support for the reasons I stated above.

Because you have to drag out thousands of if else if blocks or keep duplicating them instead of just clicking a button that adds it faster. Also a lot of programming languages have else if statements.

But you really shouldn't have “thousands of elif” statements. Sure, its laggy. But so is 1 block. I'm voting against this because you really don't need it.

and, without toasters, we wouldn't have toast.

The workaround can be easily done in a seconds, it won't bother anyone if you stack 100 block up each others, that's literally what Scratch is. This couldn't really do anything rather than closing the door for the more worthy blocks to be added, and it literally have the same case as the rejected forever if block.

Support, fast food is bad for kids, and instead it should be replaced with vegetables. Club Penguin's Pizza Parlor is bad because it encourages people eat pizza. It should have been a vegetable shop instead.
Also, kids aren't just going to eat 100 pizza slices just because they see a pizza sprite on the screen.

No longer using the forums unless necessary.

Really, stop with the “support/no support” thing. I don't care if you give a reason. If you have a reason you don't need to add this to your post in the first place. Stop acting like your opinion makes a difference. It doesn't. Opinions were never the point. The point is whether or not it's a good suggestion. If you can give a good reason at why this is a good idea or point out a flaw, do it, but don't take sides.
This is not sarcasm.
