Protest!

Guys, you clearly need to figure out how moderation works. Read the first page for more info, but here's a TL;DR:

If a project is mass/false reported, it gets auto taken down by a bot for maybe six hours, before a HUMAN MODERATOR does eventually actually deal with the issue. If it doesn't come back within two or three days, then it broke the rules - if it didn't break the rules, it's back within a few hours.

This is no big deal, if you hate the comment mod don't use Scratch. They are not changing the moderation. It works fine.

Imagine…one day,you finish a project that took you 5 years. You post it. Then the very next day it's…gone. Reported because someone was angry. Mass/false reporting NEEDS to stop. Entire accounts are disapearing! This HAS to end. Thank you for reading.

And if it was actually appropriate it would be put back up when a human moderator reviews it, which typically takes a few days.

You can report anyone for anything, but nothing will be permanently affected unless something is actually inappropriate.

what changes do you want made? everything you described is already occuring human moderation exists.

Everyone protest or banned

So can someone explain what's going on right now??

Though, scratch will
1. Just not see it
2. Take a few days to bring it back up

1. The suggestions forum is not for petitions. That's the whole reason the forums are called discussion forums
2. I'm not trying to repeat what others have said but the only actions done by bots are mutes and the automatic project censor
3. This looks AI generated. Do you really care that much if you have to use AI to support your argument?
4. While this isn't addressed in the OP, many replies are suggesting that victims of false reports can get permanently banned or lose their account which is untrue
5. Are we for real with this “protest” stuff? You guys should be grateful Scratch allows you to share projects and comments in the first place, is it not clear why they have to protect children on the site from inappropriate content?
6. Some of yall need to remember that if you don't have anything useful to add to the converation then just don't post it in the first place.
7. Stop lying about moderation
8. You agree to follow the community guidelines and terms of use when you join the site. If you don't follow them there's gonna be consequences, mind blown!
9. And if you don't like those terms/guidelines and Scratch's appropriateness for children, then maybe you need to consider if this is the right site for you to be on.

That’s what I was telling them. All I said other than me saying “Petition!” Was telling them it was off topic
