This is now disgraceful.

Scratch Team got back to me and said I was also banned since “I claimed to be an adult man who interviewed other Scratchers”

So, here you go guys. Adults aren’t allowed on Scratch, and you can’t interview other Scratchers.

Scratch Team is treating me like I’m a nonce when in reality I’m just a happy father who wanted to interact on a site that my son used and to help out the community. And this is the impression I have been given.

My 3rd account, thatphysicsforumer, just got banned for “ban evading” and that I should log in to “physicsfanaticman” to learn more, when that account is deleted and that ban reason was the one mentioned below (the vague one of “your account is banned for breaking the community guidelines when I haven’t broke any) and that I had already got a contact-us response saying I could continue with that account.

Why do I deserve to be treated like this?

My first account, @obesityoftheold, got blocked for an “inappropriate username” (it’s because obesity is a problem amongst old people in the Netherlands) and now my 2nd account, PhysicsFanaticMan, got blocked for the following:

Your Scratch account has been blocked for continuing to break our Community Guidelines.

When I know I never broke any guidelines and they didn’t provide me with any comments that broke the guidelines?

After all my hard work on the forums with my posts the last week, this is how the Scratch Team treats me.

There’s no way that’s actually it. Why are they doing this stuff?!

I don’t know. This is the EXACT response:

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out. We removed your account because the username is inappropriate, yes, but also because the profile claims to be an adult man who is "interviewing" other Scratchers. We are a site for children to code and this is not appropriate behavior, even if you're only pretending to be an adult.

Thanks,

Johnnie

Scratch Team

wild (what types of interviews did you do?)

only just seen this but me and him did one about the womens world cup but now it’s over and he never got the chance to release it

the community manager for scratch is literally an adult who could be concieved as more of a nonce than anyone with the bubbly way they act, not sure why they target you.

who is the community manager?

ceebee, i dont think shes a nonce but the way she acts is definitely more nonce like than how obesityoftheold behaves

ceebee annoys me, spends more time on making projects than actually helping the site

Dang, the scratch team sucks
