Once I got a response in a few hours (when MIT was awake); another time I sent an e-mail when they were asleep and when I woke up the next day there was a response  tongue

Anywhere between a couple of hours and maybe a day, really.

It can depend on the time you send it, how busy they are, and the urgency of your question.

I'd say the average wait time is about 1 1/2 days.

Alright. At least I know what I'm expecting now.

I've used it three times, it took a day once, three days once, and four days once.

Oh, okay. Also, will they respond if you reply to the email? Or do you have to use the contact link again?

Yes, they will. Sometimes I even email them directly at help@scratch.mit.edu, instead of using their form.

Alright. Do you know if it is faster (or slower) for a response to do it directly or through the form. 'cause I know the form adds extra stuff like user-agent.

I don't think it really makes much of a difference. I've only used the form once or twice, way back when, though.
