Re: Alt+f4

Also theres a simple solution: Just open a new tab, then it'll ask to quit and you just say cancel. Firefox has it. IE8 has it, 7 too. Chrome has it. If your on a browser without one, I suggest you get IE8 or something, it's free and it's good too.

Re: Alt+f4

Why is this in the Suggestions Forum? Shouldn't this be moved to Troubleshooting? Or All About Scratch, though it wouldn't really fit there... but it's better than in the Suggestions Forum.

This is a rumor. So don't worry! After all, why would the Scratch Team program that cheat into Scratch? And I don't see how this could be a bug or glitch...

Re: Alt+f4

I suppose you could make a case that people that have this in their signature are educating others that Alt+F4 instantly closes your application.  Of course, that's sort of like teaching you about the dangers of jumping into a well by convincing you to leap in to get the gold at the bottom.  It seems mean-spirited to me.

I see that some people have upped the ante even more by trying to convince others that the Delete key is a way to share files.  That goes well beyond playful and I would hope that people doing that would stop immediately.

That's a nice analogy... At least is gets the job done.

Re: Alt+f4

Lol you said analogy
By the way, who said the delete key shares files?
That's just dumb, I tried it and it didnt work

Also some of my files seem to be missing
Hmmm.... I wonder if these 2 events are somehow connected
