This reminds me of the Chineese "botters" on runescape. Somebody made a fourm post because they weren't talking while doing something. They just can't speak English.

This topic is exactly the same: Racist and offensive.

This isn't racist, just these weird projects come from Korea. Just saying.

Re: Be Warned!!!!! Someone May Be Trying To Get A Virus Into Scratch!

It explains alot, each is probably their student ID. However, * is with the XML thing? I know I once named a project http://www.scratch.mit.edu/invalidcode?argument=getpwrd::arcr.xml just to freak people out.

Re: Be Warned!!!!! Someone May Be Trying To Get A Virus Into Scratch!

Use your brains. Obviously it's a class in a school. "rigius89" is most likely the TEACHER, and all the other users are the students. The teacher made a gallery for his friends to add to. He is friends with all the students, and each student probably added his own project to the gallery.

The only 2 things I don't really get are:

According to http://www.freetranslation.com/ "체육과" means "Physical education and". Obviously the online translators aren't perfect, but the word "education" is in there..

The XML thing may have been a mistake on scratch, or the student might have been trying to change the look of the site.. personally, I don't know too much about XML, but I do know that it could change something on the site; however secure sites don't allow that, they change "<" and ">" to code that will not affect the actual HTML file, they will just simply be printed on the screen. Do you GET IT now?

NOt to offend anybody, but your Forum SIg is kinda racist.

You're one to talk.
Anyway, I'm Canadian, and I'm not offended. It's actually nationalism, since Canada has like every single kind of person living in it

What the- This is just some Korean class uploading their projects probably. No need to get worried about it.

Re: Be Warned!!!!! Someone May Be Trying To Get A Virus Into Scratch!

It seems like some of you still don't understand.
This is some sort of class.
And the way you wrote things about the Korean letters is racist, which offends me since I'm Korean. So really a mod should just close this thread.

So What! I never said mean things about the Korean letters! And this is getting annoying! Reply nicely and I will close the thread.

I know you never meant to make it offensive, but the way you wrote it made it feel offensive.

Re: Be Warned!!!!! Someone May Be Trying To Get A Virus Into Scratch!

Thanks for the heads up.  I don't think it's anything to be alarmed about but it is nice that people are keeping an eye out.

The XML project probably had some unexpected characters in the name that confused the parsing of the page by the browser.  Something the web development team might want to look at.
