IMPORTANT UPDATE: TML is once again showing signs of significant inactivity. Please join me and @LuckyNum10 in our movement. We will convince TML to return, this time for good, with our voices, one step at a time. Follow our studio here: https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/51238628/ LINKS TO TML'S FOUR PROFILES: @_Diamond-Joseph_ @TheMissingLegend @_Sad-Song_ @TML-Real-not-kidding BACKGROUND INFO AND THE FULL STORY AS OF 1/12/2026: TheMissingLegend was a Scratcher I knew. In early November 2025, he started having some personal issues. Me, along with other users on the platform, tried to help him with these issues. But eventually, these issues escalated into a full on mental health crisis for him. We continued to assist him, but he stopped responding to posts on his account chatroom, and all activity on his account ceased soon after. On November 26, 2025, TheMissingLegend was seemingly confirmed deceased. We feared the absolute worst, however, a week later, he made an unexpected return, which shocked many and led to widespread celebration. Now, however, his account is facing major inactivity again. Fear is starting to grow in us once more... Please click the green flag, then fully read the statement below regarding this matter. Remixing is highly encouraged. Never forget TheMissingLegend.
(The following is my original statement on the TML case, dated November 26, 2025, when TML was still thought to be deceased. I would like to clarify that TML is still alive, but now inactive. With that being said, please continue to disregard any mentions of him being deceased from the statement below, though please be wary.) -LTGamer464's Original Statement on the TheMissingLegend Incident, November 26, 2025- Hello. I am LTGamer464. I am a freelance Scratcher who has been on this platform for two years now. Now, I've actually known TheMissingLegend for quite some time, even from when his account was still called "Diamond Joseph". Now, around two weeks ago, TheMissingLegend asked me to follow him on his aforementioned new account, as it had been banned for an undisclosed reason. I gladly accepted, but when I got to the account, something felt... odd. A lot of the content posted on the account was what I would consider "negative quotes", like for example, a project containing "I'm so sorry you met me". I was quite concerned for him as I saw this, which led me to reach out to him. We talked. He told be about how he was bullied, how he didn't feel welcome on Scratch, and how he was feeling down. He then got into some very disturbing details, talking about how his haters wanted to k**l him. His mental health began to deteriorate rapidly after that, which forced me to take drastic measures. I worked with other Scratchers to try and get him out of these issues. But, nothing work, and eventually, he left us and ceased all communications on his profile, never to be seen again. Learning of his demise has been very shocking for me, and most certainly for all the other Scratchers involved too. I would like to take this moment to apologize to everyone. To everyone I worked with. To everyone I tried to work with, but couldn't. And most importantly, I'd like to apologize to TheMissingLegend. I didn't try hard enough to help you. I didn't take what you were saying seriously in the beginning. You deserved better. And for that, I am so incredibly sorry for what you had to go through. Now, we all must never forget TheMissingLegend and his contributions to this community. Not now. Not ever. Thank you for your attention, and may TheMissingLegend rest in peace. -LTGamer464
