Honestly hoped that you guys at Roblox would mention the group payout approval process, as well as the locking of group’s ability to fund users.
We weren’t even notified, yet this guy knew about the restriction process days before Bloxy News.
This is outrageous, I just got information, that you guys are also planning on adding a functionality, where a moderator must determine if a group is edible for group payouts, otherwise you guys are going to disable payouts for that certain group. This is crazy, there is a API for it and everything, this is becoming ridiculous, this better not be true.
It turned out to be true, and so did the part of Roblox reliability towards the issue.
It’s on the roblox API website, if you haven’t checked already, I apologize, I had no Idea the API website, managed by roblox isn’t reliable nor moderated by real roblox administrators.
Breaking down the API documentation.
{
"canUseRecurringPayout": true,
"canUseOneTimePayout": true
}
When users request to use the group payout feature, it will either be accepted or denied by Roblox. Inline with what you two said, moderators seemingly are already denying payments
It can be further discussed on how Roblox cost people’s career on the platform.
So I believe this update has gone live, and I can tell from recent experience with it, that this has SEVERELY screwed me over. I have had a steady income for a while now, and was able to work out the timings for my bills and rent. I will not be reaching my necessary DevEx value by the time I need to process my DevEx in order to pay for my rent and bills in time, due to this ridiculous change.
DevBuckette couldn’t pay his rent from what Roblox could offer. A cause of this change.
And here’s some more issues.

The forum these issues are discussed are hinted throughout the forum after the beginning of November 2020.
I really hope you revert the group payout restrictions and approval process. I am 100% sure that Roblox is aware that they cost people severely because of it. That’s why it should be in the road map, because it changed people’s ability to live.
