The chat box is basically just a decoration that takes up 1/4 of the screen
roblox gotta get their shtick together for 2025 bro
i said welcome to someone that joined my game and after that everything was tags. only way to fix it was by rejoining.
Iāve noticed that the word āmasterā has been tagged on its own. I canāt even say the word āHooverā. Iāve also noticed that when I say the word āDiskā, like in āDisk [number]ā it comes out fine, but as soon as I start mentioning āDiscordā, all traces of the word āDiskā get tagged.
I found a probable temporary workaround:
If your chat gets 1984ād, type ā;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;ā in. I have no idea why it works, but it does.
No. They are in a sticky situation. People expecting for ROBLOX to magically be able to instantly police every corner of their platform of almost half-a-billion accounts without so much as a hiccup is likely the cause for this.
I miss the old day when theyād tag a few words, that way you could know if the filter was bugging. It took me like four tries to figure out what the hell was the issue with the sentence āWould you like me to run a physical?ā
The issue was āyou like meā in that sentence.
Speaking of thatā¦
Before they used AI for chat moderation, as it turns out, there was a .txt file within the Roblox client which was responsible for chat moderation. Essentially a list of banned words, and as far as I remember, only the banned words would be tagged instead of the whole thing.
I genuinely donāt get why they changed, its illogical and hugely inhumane to just block everything rather than telling us which part was wrong. They should know how unreliable it is, so at the very least we should know which part of the string was censored.
Developers have had the issue for longer than players have though, weāve never had the luxury of individual words being tagged when updating game descriptions, it just rejects / censors the whole thing
Iād like to join:
Instead of this chat filter, itād be better for them to revert it back to the better, yet older one, which didnāt tag everything, but tagged the words specifically that were bad, for example:
based off of the ācrapā tag right now:
āman im having a ###### day right nowā
Instead, itās being put to ā####################################āā¦
and it is just annoying.
they most likely did it how it is today because you could VERY obviously see what someoneās trying to say when they chat ā#### youā or something
the solution to that is to randomise the length of the tagged part of the message, or better yet add random spaces too for further obscurity!
