I have been on Scratch for over two and a half weeks, and I have tons of projects, comments, favorites, followers, forum posts, etc. Does anyone happen to know when I will become an official Scratcher? Will it be today, tomorrow, soon, in a week or two, or sometime else?

I have now been on here for almost three weeks, and I saw some members of the community that became Scratchers when they were on here for only two weeks. Could somebody please look at my profile, and tell me if I should have the invitation soon? Have I been active enough, or do I need a few more of something? Thanks.

This Is Because I Told CrazyNimbus To Use The Forums To Become A Scratcher.

Actually, Captcha isn't a good idea considering some people can't even READ the Captcha, plus Captcha would be frustrating to new users.Restrictions
- Can't use cloud data
- No signature (?)
- Have to wait longer between posts
- Can't edit/delete own posts
Ticks me off because I've been using the software for years, and just never got around to making a Scratch accountd, so when I do I get restrictions placed on my account??????
And if the problem is “bots” then how about solving that with an anti-bot mechanism (eg. CAPTCHA)?

To become a Scratcher, It looks like you need to upload some more projects, and post some more comments. If you are very active with comments, projects and posts for the next two or three weeks, maybe you will become a Scratcher. References - My friends on Scratch.
P.S. - I'm a New Scratcher too.

From what I see, your account has only been registered for about 2 weeks.Restrictions

Also, I have plenty of experience in trying to stop bots, and they have been able to get around CAPTCHAs and almost everything I put in their way. And even if there were a mechanism to stop every single bot, this wouldn't stop a real person from creating an account and trolling the website. While this system is kind of annoying, it has been extremely effective.Thank you for letting me know - the topic post has been updated accordingly. Let me tell you - You cannot input the signature if the rank is New Scratcher.
Guys I think what the guy who said he had Scratch for years meant he downloaded the downloadable version of Scratch years ago, but only got a Scratch account a week ago. Also, what's a signature!?!

Go to the discussion home and scroll all the way down. Then find “show your topics/posts”. Under it is “Change your signature”. Click on it and you can make a signature. Your signature might look something like the text below this message that says “A meow massages the heart.”. It could be a quote, some pictures, or a special or funny message. When you click “Change Your Signature”, there is more information about what a signature is. Thank you for your question, Williamja!

I am a new scratcher and I edited my posts beforeThanks for letting me know. I updated the first post.Any questions? Just reply to this thread!New Scratchers have to wait 30 seconds between comments.
Please notify me of any incorrect/outdated information!According to the Ahh, thanks for posting this by the way.bugtracker…
EDIT: what are the restrictions on editing?
EDIT2: However I can verify that the other three are correct. Post time is obvious, cloud data brings up something that says to wait and be active before cloud data edits are changed and here ([url=google.com]here[/url]) is a test to link to a non scratch site.
