Add an Option to Disable Remixing
Often, people will remix projects without changing anything whatsoever, and I'm sure many people find that quite annoying. In addition, I've noticed that some Scratchers will go as far unsharing to prevent their game from ending up in Top Remixed (apparently this attracts remixes and not likes/favorites).
Why not make it easier for those people and add an option to disable remixing just as we have the choice to disable comments?
What do you think? Is this a function worth adding? What changes would you make.

3. Disabling “See inside”, restricting sharing, etc.Your suggestion seems to be rejected. Make sure to read the stickies before suggesting anything!
Several people want to be able to lock their projects so that they are read-only, and other people can't see the code to copy their scripts, sounds, or artwork. However, the motto of Scratch is “Imagine - Program - Share”. By putting a project on the site, you give anyone who sees it the right to see your code, all data in it, and potentially copy it. Part of the whole goal of Scratch is remixing. If you do not wish to allow this, then you are welcome to publish the project on your own site (once the downloadable Scratch 2.0 comes out).
