Re: Customize home page and instant chatroom

The customizable home page would be nice. AddZero's tagging suggestion can help achieve that.

However, the instant chatroom will not happen.

Re: Customize home page and instant chatroom

Being able to customize the Homepage would be quite interesting... I'd support that just for the fun of it. ;D

Yeah, chatrooms will not happen, as Coolstuff said. ;D

There has been a lot of talk about having chatrooms in Scratch.

The Scratch website does not and (most likely) will never have chatrooms. We do not have the resources or the interest at this point to support the monitoring of chatrooms. User-driven monitoring is not an option for a chatroom that involves minors. We have enough work with dealing with the projects and comments on the site as it is right now.

So sorry but no chatrooms.

We also want to discourage people from using the forums, galleries and projects as a chatrooms.

As you might know some members have created their own websites with forums and even chatrooms. You are free to do that as it is outside the realm of what Scratch is about. You might also have noticed that a few users were arguing about the list of chatrooms. So if that happens just with a list of chatrooms imagine what happens with the chatrooms themselves  smile

Anyway, if you have anything to say about this topic this is the thread where it should be posted. Any other threads about chatrooms will be closed as they do not seem to provide any valuable information about Scratch.

Thank you and feel free to contac us if you have any questions.

Scratch on!
