I flagged something but... I got a note saying it was ok?

Here's the scoop:
I flagged this project http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Lightnin/641361 because there was a swear word in it but they said it was okay. I read a post about someone getting the project deleted or whatever because it had the word fudge in it. I think this is unfair.

I couldn't see a swear...
But the fudge is unfair. There are tons of games and projects out there with blood, and this gets flagged? Where is the post?

I don't see a problem with that project  hmm  It was made by a Scratch Team member, so I doubt that they'd deliberately try to offend anyone...

I think that if a project is openly implying a swear, it should get removed...  hmm

The project was made by a member of the Scratch team. I don't see any swear words in there, anyways...

OOH!

I know that this might be confusing, but the song is saying POCKET calculator. Not, well yeah.

It's solved. I'll fetch a mod and get this closed.
