Welcome to the official discussion topic for the United Shops of Scratch (USS), a federation that offers its member shops advice and consultation for maintaining their shops, order completion services, and some additional perks shared by shops themselves. Our shops are also given equal representation in our federation, and may even opt to receive a monthly newsletter!

The USS is currently being led by its Head Staff Department, which consists of [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/78ch3]Federation Owner 78ch3[/url], [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/Austinato]President Austinato[/url], [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/MClovers]Head Moderator MClovers[/url], and [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/misaPuding]Secretary misaPuding[/url]. We also have three Moderators who help the other staff with maintaining the federation: [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/cs4233117]cs4233117[/url], [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/kccuber]kccuber[/url], and [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/RSriram2010]RSriram2010[/url]. We are also honored to have 15 shops as part of our federation!

We are also proud partners with the [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/discuss/topic/491421/]Shop Connection Alliance (SCA)[/url] and the [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/discuss/topic/502888/]Small Shops Association (SSA)[/url]!

[b]The USS endorses the [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/projects/463098408/]#SimplifyShops[/url] message shared by Ihatr. We encourage, not obligate, our member shops to simplify their ordering processes by simplifying or removing their order forms and any complicated terms of service. Although we do not require our shops to follow this policy, following it can help make the Requests forum a cleaner and more customer-friendly place![/b][/center]

[b]78ch3 and Austinato's Leadership[/b]
[i][url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/discuss/post/4782979/]78ch3 & Austinato's forum thread[/url].[/i]
Following [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/GrahamSH]GrahamSH's[/url] decision to step down as leader of the USS, [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/78ch3]78ch3[/url] and [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/Austinato]Austinato[/url] became the next Owner and President of the federation, respectively. This topic was created on January 15, 2021, but went fully used a few weeks later after the transition period ended. At this point, the two were joined by [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/MClovers]Head Moderator MClovers[/url] and [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/users/p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-]then-Secretary p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-[/url].

Over the course of a few months, the USS has worked to simplify its rules and processes to allow the USS to run smoothly. Even with these changes, the main structure of the federation has remained intact. The USS also re-engaged in diplomacy with other federations by initiating partnerships with the [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/discuss/topic/491421/]SCA[/url] and [url=https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/discuss/topic/502888/]SSA[/url] during the spring of 2021.
