HOW TO PROTEST SCRATCH AI SAFELY (AVOID BANS!) Hey everyone! The Scratch Team has clarified that they do not ban users just for being against AI. However, many anti-AI users are accidentally getting muted or banned by automated filters because of how they are protesting. If you want to protect your account and keep your voice heard, please follow these safety rules: ? DO NOT SPAM COMENTS OR HASHTAGS: Replying to dozens of projects with the same anti-AI message or copypasta triggers the automated spam filter. This will get you auto-muted or banned for spam. ? DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN RAIDS: Do not go to other users' profiles or AI-friendly studios to argue or harass people. Harassment is a major guideline violation. ? DO NOT MISUSE THE REPORT BUTTON: Mass-reporting projects just because they use AI or because you disagree with the user is against the rules. Misusing the report tool can get your account flagged. ✅ KEEP PROTEST STUDIOS CLEAN: If you run or join an anti-AI studio, keep it focused on supporting human creators. Do not allow hate speech against the Scratch Team, as the ST will delete the studio and ban the managers. ✅ USE DIRECT FEEDBACK: The best way to be heard is to have a parent help you send a polite, mature message directly through the official Contact Us link at the bottom of the site. The decision-makers read those, not project comments!
