Scratch

This seems a lot like the private message idea that has been suggested before. Right now the Scratch Team is currently not willing to have private messaging.

Here is some more information about it:

Private Messaging

Cheddargirl asked if I could put this here. It's occured a lot before, and I never noticed! *blush*

Anyway, I had a look around and it didn't take long to spot the answer:

No.

Because keeping things open and public  allow for things to be transparent. Inappropriate behavior is easily spotted and the benefits of having private communication do not outweigh its disadvantages.

There are other places on the web that do a better job at private communication.

So if you want to send secret messages to your fellow secret agents, use a different website.

And naturally, there was an arguement afterwards. Buddy_ca111 argued about it, and I'd place the post here if it were shorter and slightly less argumentive.
And then shadow_7283 stepped in and pointed out some stuff (ah, these arguments go on for a while)...

I disagree with you Buddy_ca111. What I think Andresmh was trying to say is that Scratch is meant to be a learning enviornment. Anything worth saying on Scratch is something that should be able to be viewed by the public, that way they can contribute. Private messaging is not necessarily bad, although sometimes people use it for negative purposes. It's just that what would you say on there? Something Scratch related? If it is Scratch related, than it won't matter that it is viewed on the Site.

Private messaging can be used for what you like, but I don't think Scratch really has a need for something that can be done through other websites and/or e-mail.

Okay. And for your information, the argument went on even further, but there's no point in continuing.
