“You didn’t make that avatar yourself, you bought it off the catalog, you’re not original little bro”

Interesting feature, but I don’t see the plus button even though I meet all the eligibility requirements.

Great, another ID verified feature that people who are protective of their privacy are not allowed to use​:japanese_goblin::japanese_goblin:.

These requirements are sad. You’re asking for peoples money and information just to use a basic feature that other games are built around already?

Why Premium???
Why ID Verified???
What is the point??

You’re just locking a feature away from random people at this point. Plenty of people with premium or ID verification can abuse features, there’s no point putting this behind an artificial pay wall.

And if you wanted less people to use it so it doesn’t strain moderation a ton while its still new, just don’t ship it to everyone at the same time? Space it out some?

The actual change is OK and is just like some of the pre-existing avatar games on Roblox, but the requirements are just like a cooperate slap in the face.
(Also why 13+?? These are just going to be on the marketplace like other items correct? Restricting it to 13+ doesn’t make a ton of sense. Maybe for responsibility or something but in theory a 12 year old is not gonna be any more responsible than a 14 year old when creating public avatars.)

Even furthermore, please get a grip on avatar moderation. There are avatars no kid should ever see roaming in mass on this website, and I have doubts that making a ton of public avatars for the main website is going to help that considering moderations track record. The moderation feels like a ticking timebomb for a lawsuit about exposing younger audiences to potentially suggestive content or something very similar.

TLDR; Don’t lock a basic feature behind unfair requirements (your not even selling items, its just sharing outfits) + also stop stacking more work onto moderation without first fixing it. It’s just gonna get worse.

When can we expect this feature to roll out on computers?

ok if so, then we don’t need this change and may ask roblox to revert it because it’s useless and only wastes our time.

Same here. I meet all of the requirements and have uploaded and published a UGC item (but it was uploaded and published in a group which I own, does that affect it?) but I cannot see the + button anywhere in the Desktop app.

Click on ‘Avatar,’ then click on ‘Customize,’ and look directly to the right of it.

I guess thats to stop children/people in breach of the terms of service from making avatars out of the well known innapropriate clothing on roblox.

It’s not there for me at all for some reason. I have premium, I’m ID verified, I meet all the requirements. I’ve also tried reinstalling the Roblox desktop app but it still wont appear.

I believe there is already Bulk Purchase and it totally does the job for CAC

That is not what I am asking for, I am asking to publish avatars to the marketplace from inside of an experience, not publishing avatars to the experience.

Understood, sounds complicated to implement since not everyone can use this feature atm.

ID verified is likely to avoid spam, troll alt accs exploiting this feature to create inappropriate outfits and flood the marketplace with it.

Wanted to check this out but I’m not actually allowed to buy the higher premium tiers.


What’s up with that?

Possibly account age or region could be a factor

I have a 15 year old account in the USA
