Finding the missing Forum IDs
If you sort the ID numbers, there are a few gaps. Someone try to find them out by using archiving or contacting Scratch Team, as they all lead to 403.
50-53 Forum ID also exists, but lead to 403. All others lead to 404.

- There are some forums that were deleted or only created for test purposes, so I doubt they would have a record of those. The rest are either ones like the dustbin or moderator forum or ones they probably wouldn't want to share with us.
jvvg (talk | contribs) 17:33, 1 December 2016 (UTC)- As of now, only forum IDs 12, 35, 38, 40-47, 50-51, and 53 lead to 403. 52 is now the Scratch Day forum. I believe, as per jvvg's reply, that the 403 sections are the dustbin, moderator, or ST forums, or other forums that should be inaccessible to the general public.

Three of them I have access to which is how I know them, and the last one (the dustbin forum), I was able to figure out and have proof of. Although, I may need to get permission before sharing the ones I have access to, but I can at least share the number of the dustbin forum.

Meaning
could someone add why the forums have id's?

- I don’t know how Scratch runs their site, but with my prior understanding of websites, I would assume this would be to simplify things as a computer can go “Oh, 1!” And redirect to “1” as listed in its code, unlike letters, which unnecessarily complicates things. Also, I don’t think anyone would be looking to understand how websites are run.

- I'm guessing it is to make the URLS shorter, and thus, making forum URLS easier to link.
