Last time I checked, Scratch Agents does exist!
We do have a gallery, you know.  tongue
And, 'A bunch of members'?
Scratch Agents has over 80 members.
I don't really think that's a bunch.

And for everyone's information, DaRossi and I are meeting with each other to clear this whole mess all up.

I don't like scratch agents, they are like bullies themselves thinking OK project are incredibly violent and flagging them. they should REALLY THINK about how the person who's project is being flagged feels. It should be stopped at once. Maybe us people who don't like it should all flag scratch agents projects BUT WE WON'T DO THAT BECAUSE IT ISN'T NICE (TO ANY SCRATCH AGENTS). Its like this internet game called 'club penguin' which I quit because it was too goody-goody. Scratch agents should be stopped right NOW.
http://www5d.biglobe.ne.jp/~aoi-k/scribble/scrib251.gif Look at the little dudes dance!!!

Pipluquaza, I understand what you and everyone else is getting at, I am a Scratch Agent BUT I think that if one person finds a project innapropriate the next one might. Ever since Lanie quit I think it's sort of gone downhill. People are flagging anything and everything just to have something to do. They will just write comments saying 'flag this' when it only has a bit of red for blood and is a perfectly good game. People say that the Scratch Team look at projects before taking them off but they have so little time a that sometimes that may not be possible. I don't think that you should consider people's feelings when flagging something innapropriate becaaause if it is innapropriate they aren't considering yours. Well that's what I wanted to say just to get things clear and that most agents don't like how Scratch Agents is now

No! People this thing was started by Toasty to be against cyber-bullying. The real "protectors" of scratch's innocent eyes are people like Myreneptune and kevin karplus! This is a bunch of members with good intentions but horrible execution.

I did not start it. I just have a partition to 'Stop Cyber Bullying' and that's fair lots of people have signed it, people who care about 'protecting' Scratch. Lanie started the Agents and up until she left it was good there was no one complaining and everyone was happy that they were doing the right thing.

Re: Are the so called 'Scratch Agents' doing the right thing?

I am a Scratch agent, but I don't flag everything. A few of the projects are okay, but others are not. I usually only flag the ones I think should be flagged. Most of those involve the ones killing animals, which younger children should not see. People just need to realize that you should only flag a project if it really deserves to be flagged. Some projects are innocent, while others should be flagged. A few of the projects in the "FLag All the Projects in This Gallery" gallery are not really all that bad. It's a good thing the flagging system for the SA is being changed now, because before, people would just flag, no matter what the project is like.

And besides, if he Andremesh did that he would be banning over 60 Scratchers.

Re: Are the so called 'Scratch Agents' doing the right thing?

Just remember a few things:

1. When flagging a project do not flag it simply because someone asks you to, instead think about whether or not it follows the Terms of Use.

2. Just because a project gets flagged doesn't mean that it will be removed. A project that gets too many flags can be automatically censored but the Scratch Team will review the case and decide independently.

Be aware that the Scratch Team might block accounts of people who flag projects that do not deserve to flagged.

As MyRedNeptune said, please keep the discussion positive and constructive.
