As me and @CattyPlayzy have recently become forum moderators, we have locked, deleted, and purged over 60+ topics of spam coming from @Black-Cat and @Lilly-123, @Lilly-Alt. We have also found extremely inappropriate content posted a while ago by one of those spammers. We together are making this announcement to say that we are going to crack down against inappropriate and spam content because such degenerate filth is NOT allowed or welcome on this platform.
Catty’s part:
Yes. We are going to do our best to make this forum as safe as possible. We will scrape every little piece of garbage off this platform, and keep it as welcoming as possible to new K-12 users. Thank you for reading this.
Work done as of writing this (Sep 22)
-
Catty has gotten multiple accounts created with bad intentions obliterated.
-
Jeff has deleted many spam topics to keep questions on this forum mostly relevant to CreatiCode and coding.
-
Catty has locked so many topics.
-
Jeff went through old deleted topics and found bad stuff and also did some purging
-
Catty is the reason moderators now have dedicated and organized topics for discussing moderation and issues.
-
Both Jeff and Catty are the reason Shrukin and Lily behave more and are helpful to this forum, as well as this forum now being safer.
-
Catty has helped find major issues with the forums, and how it affects the safety of our users in a bad way.
What you can do to help keep these forums clean and not to get your posts deleted
-
If you see someone breaking a major rule or doing something like posting inappropriate topics or images, both here and on CreatiCode, then report those to us and CreatiCode with links.
We can only moderate things on this forumIncorrect, we only moderate Help, General Discussion, and Feedback, so any inappropriate/egregious projects will be forwarded to them as well. -
Use the right categories. It is annoying when someone posts something in Live Books instead of Feedback or Help or General Discussion.
-
Stay on-topic. Do not go off-topic, post links to other sites (that could be or are potentially bad) like GimKit or Discord, and/or use topics as chatrooms. These forums are for if you need help with CreatiCode/coding, ideas with coding, discussions about coding, want to give feedback/report bugs about CreatiCode, and anything related to that. We will delete or lock topics that break this rule and if you are annoying and break this rule many times, you will suffer consequences.
-
Do not post anything inappropriate. This should go without saying, but we’ll also talk about a part that some people have struggled with in the past: make sure that images you post of characters or people aren’t overly suggestive. While an image could be considered appropriate because it doesn’t contain nudity, our standards are different, and clothed characters also break this rule, like female characters with unnaturally large breasts, and also fetishes.
Catty’s note on this - Please make sure if you have female characters with unnaturally large breasts that you cover them up COMPLETELY, or lower the size. Either way, cover them up completely (the stomach is fine) to avoid consequences. -
Help new users follow the rules. They may have not read the forum rules yet, so point them to there.
-
Chatroom clarification: it depends, but chats that are CC-related (like discussing making projects and ideas and sharing ideas/work) are okay, but doing more talking like you’re having a conversation with a friend should be kept to a minimum. A chatroom project will be made soon by either Jeff or CreatiCode if you want that.
Also, make sure to use common sense.
