Why was ALS Banned? Someone hacked her account. Then Lightning stood up for herself because nobody deserves to be hacked. The Scratch Team thought this was "Cyberbullying". It really wasn't. They then banned her. Don't people have the freedom of speech, first amendment? First off let me say something, ALS was my highly respected Senpai. She was one of the Senpais who I worshipped so much. She was an amazing artist, one of the best on scratch and inspired so many people. If the Scratch team banned her, they're clueless to what scratch is without her. She loved to animate and by the Scratch Team taking away something she enjoyed, that's making her depressed. Is the Scratch Team trying to make people depressed?
