Any face with punctuation in their name brings users to a 'Bad Request' page if clicked through the 'Recommended' tab

Reproduction steps:

  1. Go to the catalog and keep on searching for faces until it recommends you to get a face with a non-letter in it (having ‘-’ in the name of the face doesn’t reproduce this glitch, however ‘:’ and ‘.’ do), for me I got suggested ‘Err…’ on the ‘Shiny Teeth’ face (Shiny Teeth - Roblox).

  1. Click on the link to the face with the non-letter character in it and notice it brings you to a ‘Bad Request’ page.

The link to this bad request page is as follows:

https://www.roblox.com/request-error?aspxerrorpath=/catalog/20418658/Err

What I expected to happen:

I expected it to bring me to the page of the face I clicked on (Err... - Roblox), not a bad request page.

This issue can be workarounded by removing ‘.’ and ‘:’ from the url bar, however this doesn’t seem to work on the ‘:]’ face since everything in it’s name is a special character and the link becomes: https://www.roblox.com/request-error?id=7b16d45b-0f2f-4457-847c-cbfbceee285c&mode=&code=400
