If you were a Scratch admin...

What rule would you enforce? Just kind of a random-ish question I wanted to ask.  smile

Re: If you were a Scratch admin...

I would enforce the part where people aren't supposed to leave mean comments on other's projects. Sadly, Glitchfinder quit just today because of that.


Back. For now. Maybe.

Re: If you were a Scratch admin...

No spam and no mean comments are the most important rules to enforce  smile

Re: If you were a Scratch admin...

Beh, I'm a mod.  tongue  But if we're talking in terms of the main site: the rule I'd probably enforce most is that replying disrespectful comments not being okay. You'd be surprised how much drama is cause not really by those who act disrespectfully, but rather by those who react to them by replying back angrily or by posting projects about it.

Re: If you were a Scratch admin...

I'd enforce anti-off topicness and making/replying to disrespectful comments.

Re: If you were a Scratch admin...

Here are the new rules  wink 

•Do not post comments or forum posts if they do not contain swears
•Always post disrespectful comments or posts
•Always reply to disrespectful comments or posts
•Be mean
and finally, the most important: • Have fu- I mean buns!


Wait, that's not right.

YES and NO.

I support a year limit, but it shouldn't be 14. It should really be 12 or 13.

Cheddargirl said that the COPPA limits websites that take information from the child to only be legally used by children 14+, but that limit is actually 13.

Re: If you were a Scratch admin...

If I were an admin, I would make a rule saying you can't post dramatic quit projects, and you have to just quit, without the drama. I would also ban certain users... I'm not naming any names.

Yeah, I heard about that and saw the project. Even though I didn't really know him that much, it was sad to see him leave.

Re: If you were a Scratch admin...

If I was an admin, I would drop the 14 year limit, lower the 360 second limit for New Scratchers to 300, do the same for the TBGs, create a new forum designed specifically for creepypasta and stories, and finally ban the user "nobody", because he was featured in a very scary creepypasta and has caused the deaths of a thousand suns.

Re: If you were a Scratch admin...

If I was admin I would rule with an iron fist. Then I would get tired and let someone else take over but still give myself lots of benifits.

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.
