I hoped this day wouln't come, but it has. Scratch has given themselves the right to train A.I. models off of anything posted on the site. No. Absolutely not. I won't have it. They snuck this into the new terms of service, and it almost went unnoticed. Now that I've been made aware of this, I have removed all my projects and will make no more. I'm sorry. I can't stand by while the platform I once loved steals not only my art, but my friends' and everyone else's as well. Scratch is where I truly became an artist, and where I devloped my writing. I met people just like me, and made memories. We wrote, we drew, and we had fun together. Everything we stand for is being stood against. I can't let that happen. Thank you Scratch, but our time together has ended. To the few of you who still know me here, I bid you farewell. If anyone wants to see my content again, message me and we'll work it out. To everyone else, peace. (I'll still check messages frequently, but that will be all. Farewell.)
