Scratch Rating System For Games And Other.

Since now there are problems with blood, cussing, and violence, banning is a lot more common and people want to stop getting banned for the things they love. So I have designed the Scratch Rating System (SRS). These ratings go to Art, Games, and animations.
The ratings are:

N for no disturbing content. These go to projects that have nothing that is disturbing at all. This resorts to all ages.

O for older audiences. This goes to projects that have mild blood, cussing and/or violence. This resorts to 9-12 age group.

E for excessive disturbing content. This goes to projects with large or medium amounts of  disturbing content. This is recommended for 12 and older.

All projects using this system MUST have a warning on the title or actual project. ex: Shores Of Sand (NRS=O) Or when entering the project, EX: this project consists of X amount of X, and has been rated X by the SRS.

Please use this system as it will help with the banning! I hope this has been an interest for your next game, art, or animation!

Re: Scratch Rating System For Games And Other.

Cool idea! I personally don't like blood in projects, so I would check the SRS and if it's E or O then I won't play it.

it doesn't matter if there are warnings posted on it...if it's not kid-friendly, it doesn't belong on the site.   Warnings are not considered effective since they can't actually stop a younger member from running the project.  I hope that helps make things clear

Re: Scratch Rating System For Games And Other.

Bad idea. Scratch is supposed to be 100% kid friendly.

I don't think we'll ever be able to find a way around that, with out..urm...nudity filled...

...

projects coming along. It's fine the way it is.

Nothing O or E should exist on this website.  mad

EVER.  mad

Ok, maybe a little cartoonish blood, but that's it. Red Dawn pushes the limits.  wink

Why? There are kids around.  wink
