What the heck?

I tried logging on to the site and all of a sudden, this message appears instead of the site

The Scratch Team decided to block the account or the IP address you are using.

Reasons: Blackboy2000 posted pornographic content from this IP address
Contact Us if you have any questions

Now Im using my grandfathers computer, and until I came, nobody knew and even when they knew scratch's potential and so nobody cared.

What the heck is with this?

Re: What the heck?

I'm going to make a guess and say that it's possible that somebody on the Scratch team accidentally blocked a bigger range of IP addresses than they intended to.  Please contact the Scratch Team using the Contact Us link if you are still being blocked in error.

Your music tastes are bad, therefore your argument is irrelevant.
