Do not allow users to delete UGC catalog items from their inventory

For some reason you can delete UGC items from your inventory. In contrast, you cannot delete Roblox-created accessories, so it seems like you shouldn’t be able to delete UGC either.

As somebody who has played Roblox for five years, I’ve seen lots of different exploits and lots of new methods to literally ruin peoples experience. But this is one of the most terrible things I’ve seen in 2 years. It’s just a terrible thing that could happen if your account was compromised. Especially when it’s one of those expensive items. It’s not fun to lose items that YOU paid for.

What if you have the really expensive UGC and that just got deleted? i.e. https://web.roblox.com/catalog/4315514742/Oversized-Demonic-Greatsword
You wouldn’t want to spend 10,000 robux again on a sword.

(I don’t have many UGC but you get the point)

Please make sure this issue is addressed. People would have less things to worry about if they are compromised.

Thank you.

Perhaps this could have the account pin attached to it to help prevent this from happening in compromised accounts.

Edit: Second thought I had is have the item marked as pending for deletion for a few days so that if the account is re-secured, then the owner can simply cancel the deletion of the item.

That would actually be a good suggestion!

Except if your account takes longer than a few days to recover
