[Action Needed] Upcoming Changes to Asset Privacy for Audio

My point still stands however, yes this is rushed, but there are still better alternatives that can solve this issue.

Newer audios being automatically private is fine, that’s really good actually.

But going back and touching almost 13 years worth of audios making them practically impossible to use? Why not just moderate through them all and take out the genuinely infringing stuff!?

There is no point in making that much audio practically useless in the span of 2 weeks…

this isn’t the first time people were outraged about an update. do you remember when roblox changed games to “experiences”

Very, and I can’t stress this enough, very bold of you to assume moderation is going to be stepped up when what was holding back most audio bypassing was the price tag. Audio uploads are going to be streamlined and uploaded like never before. If they couldn’t stop some from slipping through the cracks prior, what makes you think they’re going to suddenly prevent it entirely now? The only reason Roblox is pushing an update this absurd is that they’re at risk of being sued. At no point in the OP is it mentioned that moderation will be more strict, only that it will actually take longer for audio to be approved.

Getting the same thing. When I replace an audio with my own upload and hit refresh, it shows a red cross even though I’m the uploader.

PLEASE! Do not fall from this terrible disruptive changes. Its sucks to privating all the assets by Default making it Poorer Quality, Longer Time Development, Cancellation and Halting many projects, and Cutting all of the Existing Audio longer than 6 seconds cannot be hear, Making it Almost Every Game loses its life at all cost. This is no Solution to Changes of Asset Privacy. Reverse decision immediately.

Even after the Hackers hacked Roblox’s official account on Roblox web itself to glitching and hacking the Audio naming abuse for no reason.

That was a simple name change that people joked about
This is something that could potentially mess up a bunch of Roblox games and kneecap developers while doing so

PLEASE do not oversimplify topics, it angers me to a level I can’t describe

I know. Did you somehow miss the giant 22-line block of text in the middle of my post? :slightly_smiling_face::smile::+1:

Luckily I’m starting drivers ed soon so hopefully I’ll have a driver’s license to use eventually, but I need 100+ uploads sooner than next year. I’m working on two games that need a lot more than 10 soundtracks and sounds. I don’t like the fact that I’ll have to wait multiple months just for all the sounds to be on the website.

i am not oversimplify the issue, jut saying that it’s not that big of a deal, roblox might slowly start putting the audios backup after they check if it’s copyrighted.

If worst comes to worst, we may not ever get to make audios public.

Can you refund me these, roblox?

Because this update will destroy these 2 things I bought a long time ago.

I honesly just hope that this update gets cancelled. And if it doesn’t, we have another proof that roblox doesn’t care about their developers (who basically hold their platform alive) at all.

Sorry for the lack of clarification, im very bad at it
you’re undermining the issue by comparing it to a LITERAL NAME CHANGE

I’m surprised this topic is 15+ times more active than WAYWOC just for the backlash(which I also support for tbh since this update is horrendous)

I am still against this update.

I do want to reitterate, the idea of making audios not useable if the uploader doesn’t want them used is a good thing, the implementation tho is not good and should have been thought out more.

hoping Roblox offsets this FLOPPPPP update by giving devs the option to refund audio game passes :slight_smile: but then again it’s roblox so what can we expect

Oh yeah, that’s another issue. I sincerely hope everyone who bought radio gamepasses and boomboxes gets refunded.

clothing is gonna be hit with a update like this in the future since more and more large clothing companies are advertising on the platform

Free audios is pretty good, but the other part about audios becoming private is straight up dumb

Uploaded audios are private by default, so if the creator made them public was because they wanted them to be public, lol.

Not only that, what if these persons forgot that they uploaded the audio, or are not aware of these changes (which would be pointless since they could not do anything to make them public)?
