The elections will be delayed as we're working on a new voting system to ensure fairness and legitimacy. We will make another announcement about the elections on Oct. 14, and hope to hold them soon after.

@turntechGodhead: You can see if you meet the requirements to run for community moderator here. The date of the elections hasn't been announced yet, so keep checking back in the announcements for info

Thanks! I'm sure you know that the #4 edition is coming out soon, but I can't write it until the news about the elections are posted 

I'm looking forward to reading it

dude it was already filtered you didnt need to double filter it with your uncoolness

by the way that word isnt even a swear what nut made that decision

The Scratch Team made that desicion, and it is a swear word. I took it out of my post because I don't want it in there if anyone quoted it.

But when you quote it, it shows the real word again.

You've been seen using obscene language a few times. It's a site mainly used by young users, so you need to be polite and use suitable words, even when criticising.

dude for the last time nothing i have said is a swear word

can you guys understand that or do i need to be more specific i mean seriously the kids cant even see the word its just a *

all the "swear words" (obvious lie) become *s
all the "swear words" (obvious lie) become *s
all the "swear words" (obvious lie) become *s
all the "swear words" (obvious lie) become *s
all the "swear words" (obvious lie) become *s

all the "swear words" (obvious lie) become *s
all the "swear words" (obvious lie) become *s

no damage done
word not seen
i cant edit it

how old are you guys anyway if you think that words bad you should get out more
the other version of darn isnt a swear for anyone older than 2 years old
dont get mad kids

Actually, the word becomes seen when it's quoted (the asterisk only acts like a mask) - thus, we remove words even if they are masked by asterisks.

The Scratch website consists of members who are as young as five years old, so the Scratch Team and the community moderators will sometimes remove words or phrases which may be deemed inappropriate for the website. Obviously, "darn" isn't so strong as a some other cuss words; but the tone you did share did sound rather unfriendly.

Perhaps it's best if you read over the website's Terms of Use, as it is a general outline of what is and isn't allowed on the website.
