Bulk delete for group walls + Live push of some sort

Feature Requests Website Features
#1

With all the spam going on, at least one thing that would be useful for us to cut down on spam, is bulk delete endpoint and a live endpoint that we can receive new messages.

This would allow us to setup our own bot to delete massive amounts of spam easily. Though I am not sure how ROBLOX feels about bots, but obviously ROBLOX can’t do everything themselves, this would at least give us the ability to keep our groups cleaner without spamming delete on each of them or doing it manuially (which is barely possible)

Discord obviously can’t handle everything themselves, hence one of the reasons they allow bots.

I'm curious if there's a way to delete botted comments on groups

Can’t you just exile and hit “delete all user messages”?

Mad Studio’s group wall was flooded with about 810+ spam bot accounts, with a new one joining as soon I exiled another. It could be a useful feature.

I wish someone released a bot with basic functions such as ranking up, exhiling, and comment deletion. I have no idea how to do this part myself, but can come up with algorithms that I feel would detect spam adequately. This could be helpful for things unrelated to spam too

#5

In this github account, there’s some old bots, that could be re written.

Some spammers do their spam and leave. This removes the exile button which allows you to delete all their comments.

This was one of the main issues I found with Group Botting. It took me about 20 minutes to replicate this behaviour and it’s worrying how dangerous it can be.

Hopefully a solution could be either this, or a purge ability for a user regardless of if they still remain in the group.

EDIT: Maybe a setting to ‘delete a users posts after they leave’ in the Group Admin panel?

I agree with this feature request as recently it’s been made increasingly aware that roblox is taking better action against bot accounts, mainly with group botting by implementing those new CAPTCHA colour thingies. However there are still groups affected by the issue of bots so a group wall mass delete feature would be extremely useful.

Why I feel that this feature would be useful is that there are many many MANY groups that were affected by the group botting on their wall, still are affected and may be affected again in the future and it takes a very long time to clean out hundreds of pages of “Click this link for free robux”, which you don’t want users clicking. Along with this if there are hundreds even thousands of messages on a group wall that a group owner wants to clear or a new group owner wants to clear - whether for a fresh start or due to spam, then it also takes forever and ever.

Overall this feature would help to prevent people falling to roblox scams if people can quickly and easily clear their group wall of these ads, as well as stopping it being an inconvenience to a new group owner or the current group owner.
