I believe before it was more of a judgement call based on severity of the offense. Unsure though. That’s how it sounds in the OP.

Will things outside of the DevForum constitute a strike or immediate removal?
For example, people using DevForum status to scam others, or just people in general scamming or being rude on the Roblox website itself?

Is there a cooldown or a timer where your strikes reset?

The main topic has more specific information on how the cool-down period works. If you have any suggestions please let us know.

A needed change that I’m with all the way. The DevForums ought to get back into that professional community atmosphere where we’re here to share, improve ourselves and each other, not bring each other down. I personally don’t think it’s strict at all, it’s something that should’ve been present some time ago. This especially goes with the volume of people being accepted nowadays. It’s easy on everyone; it discourages members from poor behavior and it helps staff track moderations better.
Also, curious question, why is this in Public asopposed to Inception? I’m just thinking now that this is a DevForum-only related announcement in terms of the forums, so I thought it’d make more sense to put it there. I don’t know, I’m not staff.

Yea. Just saw the update.
Notable tl;dr.
Strike 2 must occur within 60 days of Strike 1. Strike 3 must occur within 60 days of Strike 2. Now if you get a 3rd Strike 61 days after Strike 2, is that a Strike 1?
Also Strike 2 is now 5 day suspension not 3.
I do find it interesting that Rule 16 is an auto-3 Strike. That one seems like a judgement call given what is shared.

Like the idea.

It was certainly done internally though there wasn’t the suspension element. Discourse has its own internal warning / strike system like this.

Awesome! 
This was much needed!

Improvements are always welcome. However, in what way did it become evident for there to be a more structured method for moderation? Is the DevForum’s activity growing that much?
It will be interesting to see what level of improvement this system will bring to mass control on the DevForum. It does seem more effective, but I don’t see how well it would work on a case-by-case basis.
It does make me wonder, as I manage a Roblox Discord community with 50K+ members but no “strike” system. Instead, we have a team of dedicated moderators, filtering, and user moderation history.

This is definitely a welcome change. I love that young and budding developers are joining us, but we should not sacrifice the maturity and the professionalism of the forum because of it.

Wait, so there weren’t strikes before?

I believe that there should be some sort of warning before a strike and suspension is applied… So that someone knows what they are doing is wrong.

That’s what the first strike is for. No need for warnings, if you quality for a strike, it means you are intentionally doing something inappropriate, it’s not something you’d accidentally run into. (i.e. for forum etiquette issues, you just get a feedback message, not a strike)

To add to what @buildthomas said, you can see all the things that qualify for strike points are pretty blatant.
