Thanks for letting me know. I updated the post.

Very nice post. You may want to mention Alice in #9. It is pretty much a harder version of scratch, but in 3d.

Good idea.

Hello, I'm from Spain.
Could you please add a new block in the pen options named “MultiPen”? This option will be able to write with several pencils at the same time.
really useful to draw a rainbow .

I am looking forward to hearing from you!!!!!!!!

Best regards,

Isabela and my teacher Quico.

Please do not use this topic to suggest things. This is a just a list of the rejected/pending suggestions.

1. Back in 1.4, there was a useful list you could use to block users' comments, projects, etc. from your webpage. When will this return if at all?
2. Could we get a license or a special permit for making chat rooms, as long as we can moderate them ourselves or add scripting that could do it too? I bet just simply adding the username to whatever comment they make can reduce bullying almost completely. Not to mention a few tricks I know.
3. There seems to be a love-it “trap” now. Popularized projects tend to stay on the front page longer than those that are gathering their popularity. If you noticed, old projects (2-3 weeks old or more) remain front-paged for quite a while, then projects with very low love-its appear and disappear quickly, and it repeats. Maybe you could notify the Scratch Team to modify the time a project can stay on the front page…

Besides a list for rejected and one for pending, create one for most commonly suggested?
Things like realtime collaboration or but things the scratch team hasn't confirmed or rejected, but it's been suggested frequently.

There are way too many of those, though… :/

You should add something about apps.

Add profile badge/achievement systems to the list, please. See here to find exactly what I mean. More than one person has suggested this, but I feel it would harm Scratch's purpose and function, as well as down new users. They would make all kinds of trouble, like bragging and hate comments, for example

some random person wrote:
That guy thinks he's so cool just because he has that one acheivement, but he really sucks.

Basically what I'm saying is, Scratch is not a gaming site. It is for making and sharing projects, including games, but if you want acheivements for what you make, then sorry, it could be harmful. If you want achievements, program them into your projects, make a badge project for yourself and make it your profile feature, but we don't need this system for rating users.

Thanks! I've already replied to two of them.

You have points. Even though I don't actually understand (Because i'm eight) I still think she has a point.

You don't have to respond them, just make a list with the link to the topic.

mathfreak231

For the scratchblocks tag, could you add that it is enabled and being tested on the wiki?

Exactly. At least then we don't have to remake forums for ideas already suggested.

lol, italics.

You know, there IS a way to make 3D scratch, and still have it easily accessible, make two seperate downloads; one for Scratch 2D, and one for Scratch 3D. Problem solved, that way beginners can use the 2D version, while more advanced users can move onto the 3D version. As for the potential problem of a lower framerate, 3D projects will probably have to be downloaded, like you could with 2D projects back in 1.0, I see no reason to at least CONSIDER this.
