Hello, I am a new scratcher on this account, but I already have an old account which is deleted which I set up in 2015 so I am not a new scratcher
I want everyone to let me know of this idea that could be put in Scratch 4.0 or something that they could add very soon. The way that some scratchers want to work together or Collab is amazing for teamwork building and so people can learn new skills, but right now that is very difficult as people at the moment have to send Collab's back and forth by email, but a way to solve this is Scratch Collab mode. Scratch Collab mode is where one person can create a project and invite other scratchers to join a live editor of Scratch (via messages) where people can make projects together in real time without having to get send edits back and forth all of the time via email. You are probably thinking how will the 2 scratchers communicate between them. Well along with the real time editor they can also have a chat where they can talk to each other in real time (like comments), so that they are able to plan out the project together and make sure that everything is clear between the two scratchers. Once they are finished and happy with the project, they don't have to share it on different project pages, you can release the project together on both your profiles, but it will still go to the same link, and it will show who made the project (like normal, but it will show two users instead of one just below the title of the project). Only the person who created the project can invite other people to the editor (if there can be more than 2 people editing), but this can be changed so anyone can invite people if the person who created the project Collab wishes. One more feature, anyone in a Collab can back out whenever they want to. So no one can feel pressured to get a project done quickly or make a project that nobody want to.

(Additional features they could add) If the person who you are doing the Collab with starts being inappropriate then you can report them, or the admin (creator of the Collab) can kick anyone out of the Collab at there discretion.

Let me know what you all think of this idea, by leaving feedback or a new suggestion on this topic down below

Rejected sorry.

Tolors 2.1 Adding users to work on projects
Having multiple Scratchers work on the same project would be difficult to moderate not only due to technological limitations, but also because it could lead to private messaging; for more information, see #7.1 on this list. This suggestion includes live editing (similar to Google Docs) and other forms of private collaboration. If you would like to work on a project with another Scratcher, you can remix each others' projects.

But you can go to this link for a non rejected version.

Uh oh, it looks like your suggestion was rejected by the Scratch Team, which means it won't be implemented.

At the moment, a turn-based collaboration system for shared projects is NOT rejected; you can discuss it on this topic.

In the future, please read The Official List of Rejected Suggestions before making a suggestion.

edit #2: oh yeah, and the private messaging part:

7.1 Private messaging
Scratch currently has public messaging, meaning anyone is able to see the comments that you write. As a result, people are more likely to be respectful since anyone can see the comment. However, with private messaging, people know that only the intended recipient can see the message, which could lead to many more disrespectful or inappropriate comments. The Scratch Team also simply does not have the resources to moderate a private messaging system, precisely because there would be a lot of bad comments. In addition, it is a huge Internet safety concern, and is not really the purpose of using Scratch anyway.

This suggestion extends to allowing users to post links to other private messaging websites, such as Discord. Many such messaging websites are not as well-moderated as Scratch is. If such links were allowed, Scratch may be held responsible if anything bad happens to someone.
