Hey all,
Ted here.
Some nights I go to sleep sometimes worrying that I could lose everything on my ROBLOX account. Many people have lost hundreds of thousands of robux, dozens of limiteds, groups, games, and even their entire Roblox account. However, I have an idea, which is used by a lot of other websites. I feel like everyone should be able to set up account security with their phone serving as a security utility.
What I think would be very cool is if players on Roblox can use the phone number set in their settings so that they have account action confirmation sent to their phone by text. If this were to be implemented, when players would enter their phone number through their account settings, their phone could receive a text message to first verify that they are trying to add this security method. Once they have their phone set up to serve as an account security utility, players should have options to how they want to set up.
For younger players on ROBLOX, since most Parents don’t allow their kids to have phones, they could either use their parent’s phone number to receive confirmation texts, or an email if the player has one, and if not their own email then their parent’s email.
Here are a few ideas that I have that players should receive a text message on their phone so that they can confirm:
- Trades
- Group Ownership Changes
- Change email address
- Change phone number
- ROBUX purchases
- etc.
What do you all think? These are just general ideas.
Anyways, thank you all for reading. Hopefully I’ve inspired someone to make this a feature on ROBLOX.
