Threats from another user

Hello, scratch members.

Earlier, [name removed by mod] remixed my project I had acctually requested that NO ONE REMIX. I asked him to take it down, and when he ignored me, I posted a project asking him to take it down.
So he then told me something along the lines of quitting scratch because of me, and rather dieing then taking them down. Now he's telling me that 'At 6:00 today all your projects will be flagged so too bad'. I'm wondering what I should do about it.

Re: Threats from another user

Hey Foxgirlgamer, keep in mind that every project uploaded to Scratch is under a Creative Commons License and is open to remixing - you cannot tell other users to not remix a certain project of yours, nor can you ask them to take down remixes of your project.

As for the threats, you can flag the threatening comments down and the Scratch Team will take a look at them. You can also opt for adding the user to your ignore list if you want.

Lastly, please don't ever use the forums to publicly name out users - that can be considered an attack on another users and could be considered as a violation of the Term of Use.

Re: Threats from another user

If you don't want people to download your projects then you'll have to upload it to a site that you own instead and release it under a different license. You could upload another project on the Scratch website directing people to your project. This is the only way to stop people downloading it.

Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.
