There should be a 'spooky' warning!

Seeing as there are a lot of FNAF based projects, and possibly even more ‘scary’ projects that don't break the scratch rules, I think we need a ‘spooky’ warning. I think people should be able to set if their projects may be scary for some. People who are young or simply choose to can turn on the spooky warning so that any possibly ‘spooky’ projects either won't be shown to them or will provide a little warning like the ‘username’ block does.
If anyone has any ideas or support for this, please say!

There is already a NFE (not for everyone) rating for projects that don't completely go against the Community Guidelines, but aren't completely appropriate for everyone. They won't show up on the front page (with the exception of Newly Shared, as they probably haven't been viewed by the ST yet), but there's no warning that they are NFE - the only way to tell is if they should be front-paged but aren't, say if a curator tries to curate it. Support for stating that a project is NFE.

There's already the NFE status. Also, the creator can do so by him/herself.

NFE is a hidden status given by the ST, and it prevents projects from being front paged.

Support for a warning when a project is NFE, and an alert if your own project is marked as it.

Yeah, I was thinking of a not-hidden status; Something you could select if you want to see projects labelled as or not.

If you can choose whether your project is labelled like that or not, what's the point? Most people will just say no so that they don't scare off any viewers that would normally not care… (Nvm my brother told me I read your sentence wrong)

Then again, I had a project that was mistakenly labelled as NFE once. I got it fixed, but still, that would just make it more annoying…

I support to be warned if I'm about to see a project that is NFE. And to be alerted if one of my projects gets marked as NFE.

The ST has been talking about adding some kind of warning for stuff that falls into the NFE category. It's still in discussion, our biggest issue is, if implemented, on how to word the warning itself - NFE is a pretty broad category, after all, and covers other topics other than ‘spooky’.

Maybe something quick, like “NFE Warning- This project may not be suitable for everyone.”
