I got a message saying "We remind you to use appropriate language"

A few weeks back I received a message from the Scratch Team that said something like this:

"We remind you to use appropriate language at all times. Please read our Terms of Use"

What does that mean? Is it just a reminder that was sent to everybody, or did I do something wrong?

Yeah, I got one of those too, after posting a comment or a reply.  There was nothing bad in it but I guess something in it triggered the filter.   It's probably a mistake, I wouldn't worry about it.

it probably means someone reported you for inappropriate language (eg swearing).

But, I didn't do anything! I always use appropriate language! No swearing at all!
