Some tips for new scratchers!

Hi! I know some people say I'm new but I don't consider myself new. Here are some tips for new scratchers:
1. Be as nice as possible. Meaning be respectful, kind,and mindful. Also, remember that scratch has people who are differeent ages, different religions, and have different opinions.
2. Spam is bad. Spamming is when you post on someone elses project "Look at this! (link)" It is mean and bad. Don't do it.
3. Feel free to express your opinions, just kindly. Don't say " I HATE all of __________'s projects! They're SO bad!" it's just plain common sense.
4. Don't be mean to someone who isn't your religion. I get teased about my religion all of the time at school and I hate it!
5. Don't be too gory or gross. Remember, 4-year-olds are on scratch.
That's all for now, if you have any more tell me and i'll add them!

There are a lot more types of spam than that. Maybe you could talk about, blockspam and necroposting  tongue

Necroposting is where you take a thread that hasn't been posted on in forever, and comment on it, bringing it up to the top of the thread list.

Not sure if i'm correct with this, but blockspam is when you just post a lot of random blocks without any real meaning.

move (10) steps
move (10) steps
move (10) steps
move (10) steps
when green flag clicked
when gf clicked
when flag clicked
When [Sprite1] clicked
repeat (10)
move (5) steps
stamp
end
repeat (10)
move (10) steps
stamp

No, this would be like blockspam:

when gf clicked
say [YOU MUST DIE!!!!!!11!!!!] for [9999999999] secs


Bye 1.4!

Re: Some tips for new scratchers!

We're blockspamming on a topic that discourages blockspamming.

Wow.

Anyway, nice guide!  big_smile
