Stop Blaming stuff on new scratchers!

I believe that almost 70% of all problems on scratch are being blamed on new scratchers. Not all spammers and odd behavers are the new guys!

Re: Stop Blaming stuff on new scratchers!

No, they are not being blamed on them. it's just mostly spammers and trolls that are joining and then getting shut down, so I can see how you would get confused.

Has there even been any trolls lately? No. You do blame the new scratchers.

Don't worry - you get upgraded to new members after a certain period of time. We're not really blaming anyone - it's just a precaution against trolling.

Here's the dirt: When trolls come in, we ban them, forcing them to make new accounts. The limits are put into effect so that they can't post too much before a moderator finds them. Since there's no way to get into the "member" group without passing through the "New Scratcher" group, they're effectively stopped before they can cause too much damage. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, but it's necessary.

If there's something else we feel we're blaming New Scratchers on in general, please let us know  smile

Dude... you're only saying that cuz you are a new Scratcher (You can tell cuz it says it was made in 2010, I made mine in 2008, anyway, yeah. Plus who said we did blame the new Scratchers cuz at this stage I have no idea what we are "blaming" them for. :-)

Re: Stop Blaming stuff on new scratchers!

I would never blame anything on a new scratcher just because they're new. I hate stereotypes like that.

You know? I think new Scratcher isn't exactly the best term for it. Look at when I joined < 2009. Maybe I joined the website then, but I have been using Scratch for almost 5 years now. See what I mean?

5 years? It only came out in May of 2007, meaning that the longest you could've used it for was just over 3 years...

What exactly is being blamed on YOU specifically?
