This is why when you first share a game, you should call it “Game Name”, not “Game Name 1.0”. Once it's shared, you can rename it to 1.0 though, and it wont affect the URL
Maybe you choose what shows in the URL and you can report innapropriate URLs
Now you have a different problem to deal with: multiple people trying to make projects with the same name. There are, for example, dozens of projects shared with the title “pong”, so each person would need to keep guessing things and trying to find an unused name.
Another thing: if someone really wants to share a phone number on scratch, they will find a way to work around any filter, so allowing 10 digit urls shouldn't be a big problem.

Dear Algebra,

Using the recent tab, the most recent project I see is https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/171956674/ . So, that means the doomsday countdown is 828,043,326 projects to go. At the highest spike in multiple years, there seems to be 982,538 projects shared in a month. If someone could find the average between 01/01/17 and 30/06/17 (dates are not American, they follow the format of DD/MM/YY) I would appreciate that. So, with that information we can go on the high end and assume that 3.0 comes out by around October 2019. At this rate there are 26 (I think) months before Scratch 3.0 steps in to stop doomsday. That's 25,545,988 projects. So even at a high overestimation there is an extremely low chance that doomsday rolls around before 3.0 stops it. As long as the number of projects doesn't increase too dramatically (and stay that high), we should be fine.
Anybody see anything wrong with this? A contradiction, perhaps?
EDIT: If you need the numbers, then that means that we'll have about 197502662 projects by October 2019 if new project rates increase to and stay at the highest they've been in years (also my calculations would have to be right)

More news! The phone censor only seems to block 10 digit 1800 prefixes. With this new info, we should be able to push the doomsday back again to… well, long enough that 3.0 can still save usRight.

That's interesting, because it lets me do it. Perhaps it's only for New Scratchers?

yeah that would work really great, re-reading the posts. I had an idea somewhat like that. So if you were linking to my 4th project (which is my best project tbh), it would look like this:
https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/CellularData/4/
…BUT the other problem with it is really old links. There are some links left on the site that look like this:
https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/andresmh/104/
Fortunately andresmh only has 25 projects, but if there were at least 104, that could be a HUGE issue.
Maybe just take out the /projects so it doesnt interfere with old links.
so itll be scratch.mit.edu/griffpatch/1/

Maybe do it like this:

Two letters. It would take a long time before this would become a problem again.
