A Status subdomain that showcases the current 'Status' of the ROBLOX platform

Feature Requests Website Features

ROBLOX is a very stable platform, but sometimes there is maintenance or an issue with one of the Services. It would be handy if Developers / ROBLOX players could view a website where the ‘Health’ of the ROBLOX platform is showcased.

Here is a example of ‘statuspage.io’ (http://status.vimeo.com/). A other good one is status.github.com

  • ROBLOX staff can make reports for game breaking updates. For example, when the MarketService isn’t working. (A lot of developers are still using this service to check or a Player has a certain gamepass, etc)
  • We can ‘see’ or this issues has been fixed. (And we don’t have to verify by our fellow developers or the issues have been fixed

Benefits :

  • We as Developers know what the current status is, what we need to do in case of something ‘bad’. For example, the DataStore service doesn’t work anymore.
  • Players won’t go straight to ‘Oh ! ROBLOX GOT HACKED !’. But can actually view the status of the element on the Status website.

TL;dr A ROBLOX Status page or website that allows you guys to keep us informed about critical matter and to keep us informed about the status of the ROBLOX platform

Thoughts ?

I support this to the extent of telling us, but I don’t feel we need an entire subdomain for it.

No more wondering if data stores or our code is broken :smiley:

I feel that this feature is heavily needed, and I know that ROBLOX has this data. Any comment of fellow developers / ROBLOX staff members are welcome !

I’d still like this. In game API would also benefit by being able to access status.
