Can a mass reporting bot cause deletion of my game?

Recently my game was attacked by a mass reporting bot, which caused the game to get content restricted, after couple of hours all restrictions were removed, but they are threating me to do even bigger attack and I am a little uneasy. Is it possible that my game might get deleted (similar situation in this post - Game Was Mass Reported, What Should I Do?), or am I completely safe and moderation will not do anything crucial to my game?

I may have witnessed something similar. I believe bots underwent sus activity in a game, mass reported their own activity, and got the game oofd

I’m getting déjà vu here.


Answering the OP’s question - not exactly. If all they did was to mass report your game for no reason, it might get restricted, but it wouldn’t get deleted, as Roblox moderators wouldn’t find anything suspicious about it.

But if Exploiters were to join games and engage in inappropriate behaviour in your game, I’m not sure restricting your games might be the only thing Roblox does. Not sure how Roblox handle reports either - do they restrict games first before investigating, or vice versa?

Unless you can talk to a real person at ROBLOX, not roblox support, you can’t do anything. Roblox Moderation will see the ammount of reports, and probably will falsely delete your game. It happened to my friends before.

They restrict it before investigating, exploiters attacked it over 20 times but every single time the game would get back to public in couple of hours.

I think everything should be fine unless, as you said, they will do something inappropriate with it b4 reporting.

Knowing roblox moderation I wouldn’t put it past them to not do something crucial to your game. You can only protect yourself as much as you can which isn’t much you can do in this case. You can only hope Roblox doesn’t make any permanent decisions with their moderation from the false reports. As long as you are able to prove wrong there shouldn’t be issues.
