Allowing notifications when somebody posts in the group wall

Feature Requests Website Features

Problem
As a Roblox developer, it’s currently hard to communicate with others through group walls because many people posts everyday in one wall.
Since Roblox shut down the Forum back in 2017, they claimed they could use group walls as communications throughout players in the group

Solution
Roblox should add a notification setting for group walls to notify us when somebody posted something new, or if somebody mentions his/her username.

How the system would work?
• Notification setting will work, like this

The settings will have a notification control for every group:

•Priority- Receive notifications everytime somebody posts something in the group wall or shout
•Normal- Receive notification when somebody uses his/her username in the group wall or shout
•Muted- Not being able to receive a notification in this certain group

They will get notifications about the group, through the notification bell.

Conclusion
If Roblox could address this and add this feature it would really help benefit the community because people would be faster notified if they made a certain topic in a group wall and they may instantly read it, before other posts different topics or posts.

As a developer, it’s currently hard to use the group wall for conversations between fans and developers. A lot of players post spam and requests for Robux rather than giving actual feedback and asking questions. It would be awesome if there was a way to notify players when somebody @'s them just like on the forums. Yes, you can just use messages, but it’s a hassle when a player wants to give minor feedback. In a fast-moving wall, interaction could be better.

This feature also brings drawbacks, though.

  • What stops players from notifying the developer too much, at a point where it overwhelms them?

I suppose there could be something like this:

This way the player can choose whether to be notified by the group of their choice.

  • Can players abuse this feature to gain attention from a developer?

Well yes, but perhaps there could be an age restriction set by an admin of the group to prevent flooding.

This feature would be completely customizable by an admin of a group. I think this feature would be awesome for receiving feedback from your player base. This would help tons of developers improve their games.
