Say, my "Etch-a-Sketch" gets featured, and then I upload Space War 4 with that name.

When It is online, I change the name to Space War 4. 

Yes, I don't think you would do that though xD

I was making a project and when I was finished with a thing I uploaded it to my test account.
I named the project TEST, but I had already a project called TEST uploaded, so the new one replaced the old one...
But the sharing date is the same as before, so it says that the project I just made, was shared 4 weeks ago 
This could be used for faking sharing dates...
Maybe it should be fixed?

Link to the project I just made:
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/JacoolFix/731550

yes i reported this about 2 months ago for the same thing! just a test named test and reuploaded a differant test project wit the exact name

Its not a bad idea... 

JK

This could turn into a very bad thing. Like what if someone who's project gets featured changes it to something else... Well I know the picture on the front page would change but that doesn't stop innocent eye's from viewing it before it can be taken off. Maybe to stop this the scratch team copys the scratch project onto another account and make the "by" thing link to the originals persons account and any "views" are given back to the original project.

That way the featured project gets featured for the content that it had when it was featured and not added content afterwards.

please consider this
