I have a Scratch Forums account...

...but not a normal Scratch account. Is there any way to log in to it? I've tried, but I keep being redirected.

Yes... that's not what I mean. This account is normal, but I have another account that I have never logged into, because it is only a forum account.

What is the account's name?

Re: I have a Scratch Forums account...

This account may have even messed up the forum accounts number! The number of accounts is now 198508, but the newest user's id is 198509.

Re: I have a Scratch Forums account...

It could be, but maybe Troubleshooting is even better. People tend to say to put everything misplaced in forums to go to About Scratch. I wonder why...  tongue


If you are reading this, please read to the end, because if you don't you won't know what's at the end. Don't just skip to the end though otherwise you won't be able to read the middle, which is most important. Now you must be wondering why you just read all that, the reason is you may have not noticed something, read it again and see if you notice it this time  smile

Re: I have a Scratch Forums account...

888,199 users!
Newest user is: babyangel14
Sources: http://scratch.mit.edu/api/getregisteredusers
http://scratch.mit.edu/api/getusernamebyid/888,251


(Wow using the api I noticed how many accounts are spam accounts. (as I call them)

Out of the 888,251 accounts made only 259,203 of them have projects! (unless creator means something different.
Extra source: http://scratch.mit.edu/api/getcreators Can a Scratch Team Member please tell me I'M WRONG!) )

I did this to see if I could figure out how many users there are and what the newest id was, cant find the newest user id though.  hmm

This is advanced, because it is a slight hack. The account has a special character in the username. It is only a forum account because normal Scratch accounts can not include special characters.

So you created a Scratch account with a special character and it created a forum account for it...but then it stripped out the special character from the Scratch account?  Weird stuff!  Sounds like a bug to me.

Actually, I only registered the account as a forum account, but it does not allow me to log in. Maybe it's better that way...

Re: I have a Scratch Forums account...

Uh... Bump, and can this be moved back to Advanced Topics? I put it there because this is not a bug, it is meant to work this way. At least I think it is...
