I Am Tempted to Quit Scratch
Why? Because I don't see anything being done about religious flame wars. Nuff said.

Re: I Am Tempted to Quit Scratch
Yeah 
its a problem that can't be resolved, though. I keep telling everyone to stop doing it but no one listens. The only thing you can do is report the topic. Otherwise, you'll have to live with it.
Back. For now. Maybe.

What flame wars? If you can't tolerate others opinions then maybe the site would be better without you.

All I do about the religious flame wars is ignore them. Ignore them and they'll die out.

Well, I'm sorry you feel that way. I don't see any flame wars taking place...I see a lively exchange of ideas and beliefs. If they bother you, I advise you not to read or post to those particular topics. Of course, if you do see somebody being disrespectful, please flag it and one of the Forum Moderators will take a look.
Remember - Scratch is a lot more than one or two Forum topics

well if you go to a topic whose point is that god doesn't exist, and you strongly believe in god, then obviously if you try arguing then there will be a big disagreement and you won't necessarily always win when people discuss their strong philisophical beliefs. so why do you even go there? because it is blue and says "new posts"? just avoid getting others mad at you by not saying controversial things to them and there won't be a problem to you.

Re: I Am Tempted to Quit Scratch
Don't quit. A few topics isn't worth it. By the way, I've never clicked those topics, and if that's the reason, then I advise you do the same
I think if there were flame wars going on, the scratch team would have closed those topics. Although it is a conroversial subject.

Re: I Am Tempted to Quit Scratch
They arn't actualy flame wars, but i've been thinking about quitting too because of the stupid religous topics. I wish Scratch would do something about it.

Re: I Am Tempted to Quit Scratch
... anyone who quits because of religious topics scratch can live without... btw its kind of lame when your not even threatening to quit, your threatening that your thinking of quitting.
the point it simply dont read the post, then you can get on with your life and we can get on with ours.
