I've been hearing a whole lot of stuff which say:
“my account has been banned”, so they create a new account.
However, i also hear that banned people's alternate accounts have been banned, for “being an alt. account” or “for going around a block”…. stuff like that.
So, that seems like you can't create alt. accounts when you're banned for SOME ODD REASON, which seems like an IP ban, except that the banned people actually can visit scratch.
Is this a bug or is it something to do with the community guidelines?

I hope a suitable answer is found!

Circumventing a ban kinda defeats the purpose of the ban. IP bans are more serious though, and are generally only used (afaik) when a Scratcher tries to circumvent a ban.

Yea, good point, but most of them, I believe, don't seem like their intention is to circumvent a ban.

Actually, basically all accounts created after the creator is banned on another account are to get around the ban.

Instead they should contact the Scratch Team and submit and appeal through “Contact Us”.

Good point Cause there is a case where some guy appealed for… 5 mos., yet couldn't get his account back, so he created another account, which got banned too!

yeah, i got IP banned because my friend wanted to be a member of Scratch but didn't have his own e-mail at the time, and we were at school so i don't think he could have made one.. well i used my e-mail for him so he can be a member but then one day later i go to scratch and got IP banned… luckily they understood and unbanned me thanks mods!
