Section 7
Abusive, deplorable reliability, etc.I'm assuming by poor behavior Banana means abusive behavior.Section 7, in my case, just means that a person is not allowed at all to contact a specific person. Generally this comes your way if your behaviour is too poor for your child to be around.

Sorry for being so annoying, but I can only make out something weird out of that. So if I'm a dad, and I have a child, and my behaviour is poor then my child can't contact/be contacted by others?

In that case, I think it would be unfair for a kid if they hate what their parents are doing and they just want to have a good time on Scratch.

That's not what this suggestion is about. It's saying that if a user is having poor behavior towards a studio or another user, the ST can ban them from that specific studio or user account, if I understand correctly.Abusive, deplorable reliability, etc.

I do not support implementing this suggestion, as I believe that it isn't worth the effort it would take to implement it.

Section 7
I don't know what century you're living in but almost no one uses IPV6. IPV6 is static, fyi, but it's on a network-card-by-network-card basis.

It is in case of legal/restraining/harassment issues. I do not support implementing this suggestion, as I believe that it isn't worth the effort it would take to implement it.
Dude, are you kidding me? A lot of the world are using IPv6. When I Google “what is my ip address”, I almost always see an IPv6 address.I don't know what century you're living in but almost no one uses IPV6. IPV6 is static, fyi, but it's on a network-card-by-network-card basis.

What?! Sorry if this sounds offensive, but this is not going to help Scratch at all.
First of all, this probably has the same reason as to why blocking people is rejected. If a user is banned from a particular area, then there are millions more areas on which they can behave weirdly and break the Community Guidelines. I feel like the current reporting and banning/alerting system is way better than Section 7. As harassing and spamming is against the Community Guidelines, they'll have to be banned, not sectioned. I don't support this. I know I seem like a five-year-old screaming in your face but it's just true, you know.

I guess I was slightly off, but still only 30% of people use IPV6 by default–and I'm willing to bet over 99.9% of them have IPv4 as a fallback.
Either way it is a moot point as scratch doesn't support ipv6:

The links I posted show that scratch.mit.edu is incompatible with IPv6. Any reference for only supporting IPv4?

Um, that doesn't clarify a lot. Don't you also think Section 7 rather buries the problem than solve it?

Oops. Anyway, I'm guessing AWS will eventually support it, and Scratch will point to IPv6?The links I posted show that scratch.mit.edu is incompatible with IPv6. Any reference for only supporting IPv4?

Yeah, but that harasser could just as well go to more people and start abusing them… It really does just bury the issue…

It's not that it buries the issue, it just doesn't solve them any more than a ban does. Harrasing user creates new account, changes IP, job done. The same thing that they would do if they were banned.It solves it by preventing the harassme

You mean something like restraining orders?
No support, the current reporting and alert system is effective as it is. Banning a user from commenting on a specific user/studio would just enable them to continue their behavior.

Are you really going to ban someone for having a restraining order? Are you really going to sanction them to which they'd ignore everything? You mean something like restraining orders?
