No. While there are times where we will move a thread over from the moderator forum to the regular forum for transparency, there are certain things discussed in the moderator forums that should stay in the moderator forum, lest they turn into gossip. It's kind of like how details of a blocked account are left between the Scratch Team and the account owner.


Save your time and effort for something more positive and creative.    The moderator forum is only accessible by moderator and admin accounts only - the URL won't work under regular accounts.

So... What does it look like?

You mean the moderator forum? It just looks like any other area of the Scratch forums, just with moderator-related topics. 

yeah i just read the wiki about it

If I am correct, Scratch looks for users that set a good example to moderate.

No offense at all, Just saying that getting banned might be difficult to get through.

i didnt even get some of those warnings. if i had, it wouldn't have happened.

Well, thats something you would need to talk to the Scratch Team about, not me.

i did. when they emailed me the warnings i got, i told them that.,

Several moderators have been banned before.

Actually, to my understanding, out of all the moderators that have served, there was only one who had a ban history (and supposedly it was one of the minor bans, not something serious like trolling). Ban history and notification history (aka, notifications the Scratch Team sends out to a user for inappropriate behavior) does play some effect, but while it's harder for someone with a ban history to become a moderator, a ban doesn't necessarily mean it's impossible - you'd have to show a history of very positive change in character after the ban (in other words: rebuilding trust to show that you've become a helpful member of the Scratch community).

But now we're getting off topic.

They have an admin panel, with reports, a place to ban, ban IPs, etc.
The Scratch Team has more stuff, like being able to censor words. Believe it or not, they chose the * as a censored word. They could have changed hell to heaven, or I hate you to I love you, stuff like that 

You got that from PunBB, didn't you.

Actually Scratch forums don't use punbb. They use Fluxbb which I've heard is better. More flexible and stuff. Im considering changing my forum to use flux.

I'm pretty sure I know which one. 

Could you tell us what the reports page looks like? :3
