Please stop, it isn't funny, and you are actively breaking the TOUs:
3.5 You agree not to use Scratch in any way intended to disrupt the service, gain unauthorized access to the service, or interfere with any other user's ability to use the service.
yup, your not allowed to deliberately crash the scratch website or any associated servers

Right. The translations services are something we have to pay for. So the access rates are limited. If somebody abuses the service by using it too much, the service stops - that impacts everybody. If somebody is maxing it out on purpose, that is clearly against the Terms of Use.

Looking over this topic, it's clear to me that it really isn't a good fit for “Things I'm Reading and Playing” - this is more of a game than a discussion about a book / movie / video-game. And it also seems to be leading to harmful behavior so I'm closing it.
