I believe scipts can be moderated so I wouldnât take the risk. Roblox does need to comment on this as it puts developers in a difficult postion: getting their account potentially took action on or having people swear in a game when itâs not meant to happen.
any swear with any language is against the rules
I mean, I know couple of games having such module [ which lets swear in Hebrew], and yet they are not banned. I am talking about games thatâve been there for +1 year.
If I make a black list for bad words [ luckily, in hebrew there are not as many bad words as in English],
would that be okay?
You shouldnât try to handle this yourself, if someone wants to break the rules they will. Let Roblox decide who is breaking the rules and leave it out of your scripts. Itâs not your responsibility to keep people from cursing.
I mean, but roblox sadly censores the entire hebrew language for <13 users. And I want them to be able to speak Hebrew in game [but still hashtag bad words].
I know already how to detect what word they say, and how to replace it [and hashtag it, so everyone will see the hashtaged version, and not the uncensored].
Yes. Any swear words in any language will, possibly, get you banned. Donât take the risk.
Then how would you explain the fact there are few games that allow that and have been there for 1+ years?
For real? I havenât seen any games that have done that?
Because those ones are specifically for israeli / hebrew speakers. But I wonder if I should be okay if I made it too. [I WONâT disable Robloxâs filtering system, I just want to let everyone there speak Hebrew. Because there is a bug that censores every hebrew word for <13 [ even good words]].
yes it is i did it before and i got banned for it
Weird. I know it is for other languages. But for hebrew?
Because I know hebrew is âspecialâ on roblox because it censores all words [ even good ones, which are not swears] for <13 users.
If you know how to detect what words they say, I advice you just make the swear words in Hebrew get âhash-taggedâ, while allowing players to speak in Hebrew too.
It wouldnât be a bad idea though to ask someone from Roblox directly.
Honestly, I wouldnât take this type of moderation into my own hands. This is because of the fact that Roblox will mostly likely deem you as modifying the chat filter and moderate your game/account. Sadly though I completely understand your point as it seems that Roblox only cares for a few languages and leaves out others causing issues for people that want to create a multi-language experience.
I see what you guys are saying,
About Moderation
Look, if you were to completely remove Roblox filtering system, and use Chat:Chat
to make the messages, you will definitely get warned/your game will get closed and be reviewed.
But! I am talking about something else -
I am not disabling the roblox filtering system, I still use roblox built in chat [both chat and bubble chat], and I donât use the Chat:Chat
method to make the messages pop up when saying words. I use a module inside the Chat
service.
Letâs see an example of what I mean:
Say we have this black words list:
local badWordsFilter = {"Word1","Word2","Word3"}
I could use a module within the Chat
service, to detect if any of these words appear in the playerâs message, and then hash-tag it [make it #]. Is it bannable still?
I think that from there, the only way of knowing for sure is to ask someone from Roblox.
Also, if someone from Roblox does answer you, and allows you to, take a screenshot. That way, if they ban you/take your game down, you have proof you were allowed to do it.
Hope I helped as far as I could, and that you are allowed to have Hebrew in your game. It is something that Roblox shouldnât even tag.
Thanks! Iâve sent them an E-mail through Roblox Support
.
But do you know if I could reach them on the forum?
This is possibly due to Roblox not supporting Hebrew as a language. Is there a reason why you are making Hebrew a priority?
Simply because I intended some games to be for israeli/hebrew speakers.
[Iâve already made games for English speakers]. And these 2 are the languages I speak daily.
