Spam

Spam is often known across all over the internet as posting large amounts of words for no reason. For example, typing "dsjhdsjk" over and over again is considered spam and is discouraged by the Scratch Team. Spamming is often one main cause of reporting, and also getting banned.

AEs in addition are also considered a type of spam. Adding someone else's project to an AE without their permission is strongly discouraged in the community. Although, unlike other spam, it is very rare for someone to be reported while adding projects to an AE.

Regular Spam is the most common spam in the community. Posting large amounts of random text is an example. Even though it is possible, it is very rare in the community. Posting spam like this could result in being banned.
