READ ALL PLSS <3 --------------------------------------- also known as things aes comm needs to understand <3 anyways- as mentioned on my leaving proj on @aesupdates , I have been on scratch before aes comm officially existed and have been a long-time member since 3 years ago [ofc I joined aes comm after one year] It was actually fun to be a part of this GREAT comm until dr_ama started So, ST had to make a change and action! Some things I don't agree with- but most, I may be. Common cases I've heard ST doing is: 1) taking down people's pfp 2) taking down a project, part of b/w or desc, or smth 3) bnning people for no reason After doing some research, I found out: 1) most of the pfps taken down are kpop-related or have smth "bad" [ykwhtimean] ; I completely agree with ST taking this down for "face" bc I mean it's not your face but still- [unless it's yr bsf nd u start sp_amming ST- yah i got it] 2) I don't rly understand much- because most of them seem okay- but "some" really crossed the line 3) I actually have no reason why innocent people have been bnd but I can conclude that it was bc - m_ass reporting - was somehow involved in a dr_ama - myb wrong person bnd / bc of an i_mpersenator but some like i_mpersenators , etc. do deserve to get bnd so agreed with ST now; what I agree with ST: 4) people getting bnd bc of their prev acc guys- js saying, let's say you get IP bnd. but you use a diff IP to get back on scratch. this is called BA_N EVADING and can lead to PERM BA_N bc you are AVOIDING BEING BND. so don't do evade b_anning by making new accs or using diff IP bc ST WILL GET YOU. js send appeals nd wait for a long while <3 I've seen people released from temp b_an if they don't b_an evade 5) pausing comments [slight disagreement here tho] ok; I get to flw ST guidelines but sometimes we get comment bnd for too long nd for no reason :< otherwise, don't say weird nd mean stuff. obvs yr gunna get comment paused. 6) taking down the aes comm studios, etc. guys- let's take a break- puh-lease. if ST doesn't rly want the aes comm around for now and wants us to understand and get the hint and learn the lessons, let's do that and take time off the aes comm for a bit, until ST agrees to let the aes comm reunite and restart fresh some opinions on ST bots however; I do sometimes find the ST bots, a bit VERY sensitive. So maybe fix that..? I'm not sure. I'm not on the ST but I hope ST regards this Also, I have no grudge, and disrespect, towards ST. I completely respect ST and ST guidelines and understand why it is there. (Like guys! I got this is a 8+ website but it is also known as a kid-friendly/kids coding website. [my lil advice: try to include coding in your projects too!] So we need to keep the website safe, kid-friendly, and we have to be that ROLE-MODEL) So let's improve aes comm <3 [wait- how'd this go from a ST facts/op. to aes comm let's improve :skull:] ---------------------------------------- yah- that's all of my ST facts / op. if u want me to sp_it more facts- lmk <3 [comment some of yr ST facts / op.!!] -who knows who gettin a shoutout on my next proj :3
