some guy on scratch made a project about the serious issues on scratch

the project is gone (because scratch team is a bunch of hypocrites) but it basically boiled down to ST not doing its job and banning the innocent people

what ST is currently doing is not good and lots of people are leaving because of it. its practically worse than roblox moderation.

i like to say more but i will edit this post when i have the chance

ST has lots of problems… and not just moderation, but also with how they run their community in general. I have a lot of problems about which projects they do and don’t feature - wrote a rant about it here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/529667947/

yeah i completely forgot about that, it seems like ST prefers quantity over quality. and yes there has been some good, but most of it is just a quality of a dumpster fire. i completely agree with your rant about that

Roblox moderation is worse. You can't even say the word gay on roblox.

it has gotten slightly better, but take that to a grain of salt

Also, it seems like pretty much everyone and scratch has no idea what the actual problem with moderation is. Fast bands are actually pretty rare, it usually has to do with the people getting bands not admitting the things they did. Once I claimed I got false band, but I'm pretty sure now was just for evading punishments. The real issue is that the Scratch Team does not spend a lot of time judging whether or not something it's OK, which is understandable but is still an issue. Several programming projects have been taken down because the ST's unsure whether or not they are safe, and that's why the browser extension policy exists. We all don't like it but it's pretty much the only plausible thing the ST can do right now.
