Can I report this project?

TapingAnimations

Emergency Meeting: So there's this project called “Flappy cat” it's a game similar to Flappy Bird but with Scratch Cat and I think it's too overrated and very simple and I think the user used the trending glitch but now thats the main thing, the user is just something like 6 days old so how would they know the trending glitch? Please help me.

previous accounts or learning from a dipstick. that's all i can think of.

psst! Hit ctrl + shift + down to see the rest!

For whatever reason mister Jon Arbuckle got removed ;-; I'll find a replacement GIF later

Anyways hi, I'm SK

I've been on this site since I was 10 years old. I am currently 15

I have a major addiction to sweet tea and draw a crap ton of stuff in my free time (not all of which is scratch appropriate). I post whatever I want to on the main site and mostly manage the collaborations directory and answer questions in QaS on the forums

I have over 2000 posts lol, a huge chunk of them being from when I was 11-12 during the height of COVID

If by any chance the post you''re reading is from early 2021 or before, please forget that post exists since it is cringey

This is Kimikat.

Just because it is very simple and “overrated” doesn't automatically mean it was the trending glitch. For the trending glitch, a project needs to have a good amount of loves and favourites for it to get pushed to trending, and I doubt that a week old scratcher can get that much on their first projects. It may have been loved/faved by a scratcher with a big following causing others to check it out, making it more popular.

Then how did it get so popular? (Excluding Add-Everything and Advertise Here Studios)

It simply reflects what the community is viewing lately,you can't blame the user without proof.
It might have been that some famous scratcher loved or faved it or both.
And please don't just say ‘'Its so simple!’',the user would be hurt if he or she are reading this.

Now that isn't rude?I'm pretty sure you aren't supposed to link project shaming them(shaming is controversial word,but hey you did say its simple,I'd suggest removing the link to the project and rather just describe it)

Yes, the project might be overrated but it has many loves and favorites (how did it get more loves than this?) so it probably got onto trending legitimately.

The thing is though that trending is a feedback loop; more loves and favorites means a higher spot on trending, a higher spot on trending means more loves and favorites, so it can be hard to know where a project's social actions came from.

I think the Trending Page is just broken that's all…

Please do not use the forums to gossip about specific projects or Scratchers.

If you suspect a project was reshared for nefarious purposes, use the Report button on the project and let us know. But you should be reasonably confident that it was reshared. A project being on Trending does not mean someone reshared it to get on Trending.

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.
