My project Minor Differences Part 3 was a comic from theoatmeal.com that i found hilarious and I had to share it. It was recently removed.

I read the terms of use and this is what I found:

"Help keep the site friendly. If you feel others would find a project or comment mean, insulting, too violent, or otherwise inappropriate, click the link that says "flag as inappropriate."  In the Forums, you can do the same thing by clicking on the "Report" link below a post. The Scratch team will review, and may remove any project, comment or post."

I acknowledge it had crude language and I mentioned that at the beginning of the project saying people should be mature about it. Everyone knows those word and what they mean.

It was not made to offend people, the comic was just for hilarity. In no way it could actually OFFEND someone.

So please Scratch Team put the project back.

The ideal part here is that it wasn't rude

Bad language is still not allowed on any part of the Scratch website. Even if I say something like *.

Precisely! This, however, belongs in All About Scratch, so I shall move it.

Bad language is generally what makes things funny, if it isn't the language, you are usually just laughing out of something's stupidity

You sir, have one undeveloped since of humor. Bad language is inappropriate and NOT needed to be funny without stupidity, that's what puns are for. 

Yes, if you can't make humor without bad language, then you are not good at that. It isn't necessary.

The Scratch Team is probably not going to put a removed project back if it has crude language in it. Projects have been taken down before for the same reason and the project owners often times had to upload a "cleaned up" version of the project instead.

In any case, you'll probably have to contact the Scratch Team here to talk with them about the reasons for project removal.

Sorry, not much chance its going to be accepted if it has crude language...

I'm sorry but that project was reviewed by the Scratch Team and the language and (some of the themes) really didn't seem like it was appropriate for all-ages.  Please contact the Scratch Team directly if you want to discuss this further.
