Receiving a day ban for a layered clothing asset that Is already archived. I took the step of archiving all my layered clothing items because I’ve seen a lot of creators having issues with AI moderation lately with LC.
To stay on the safe side, I took the extra step of archiving all my layered clothing items to prevent any potential problems. Despite this, one of my archived items was still flagged, and I ended up with a ban from AI moderation.
I’ve been careful to avoid issues, and it’s frustrating to still end up penalized.
Moderated Archived asset ID: 17015483130
Moderating archived avatar assets is really important because even if a specific UGC is archived, those who have purchased it can still freely use it anywhere on Roblox. They continue to exist on the platform, and if they violate the rules, they need to be removed to ensure they no longer remain on the platform.
However, I think the real issue here is not the deletion of archived items but rather the fact that you’re being moderated for it. If you’ve archived an item, it means you no longer want it hosted on the website, and you’ve willingly agreed to hide it from the marketplace without aiming for further profit. In that case, it seems more reasonable that no action should be taken against your account, since no one can purchase that item anymore, and unless someone already owns it, they can’t even find it in the catalog. The person reporting it is likely targeting you, which opens the door to exploiting the platform. If you explain the situation to Roblox Support, I genuinely believe they could reverse the moderation.
Additionally, these items remained available on the platform for six months without any issues (you are required to wait 180 days to archive UGC items). I simply cannot understand why Roblox would turn around and moderate someone’s account for an item that was archived after 6 months.
“Some time” means half a year, and in such a long period, it’s likely for an item to be moderated. As someone who actively follows inappropriate and deleted UGC items, I can say that even a few weeks would be too long for such items. I remember that items can still be reported, but I find it absurd for action to be taken on the account after such a period.
This is kinda bad.
I agree with moderating an asset, however I don’t think that there should be any ban for the user. This basically makes the archival process useless.
There’s no point in archiving items if you get banned for them? I thought the whole point of this was to prevent creators from getting banned by uploading items that in the past didn’t break any rules or copyrighted content.
This needs to get fixed, and while the asset gets deleted, the uploader shouldn’t get banned for it.
Yeah this is honestly ridiculous, nothing less to expect of moderation but they seriously need to give the AI they use to start banwave of layered clothing restrictions on what can and can’t be moderated, or at least what qualifies as a warning instead of a ban, especially in cases like this where items have already been archived as a temporary solution to get rid of them.
Wasn’t the whole point of archiving a asset to not get moderated for it? They also say at the ticket when archiving assets:
“No strike or moderation action should be applied to your account as a result of this request” so why does this happen. This is mostlikely a manual archive but this still shouldn’t moderate people
It doesn’t really have much to do with what you’re saying; it just means that as a “result of that request,” no moderation action will be taken. Otherwise, the item is still subject to moderation.
