They wont forget anything. They have your moderation logs for your account, and any account assisted with your IP. They will most likely check all of your accounts that you have created which share the same IP as your main account.
Do they know if the account was stolen at the time I got the ban?
Yes, but this doesn’t mean he’ll be ineligible just because of an incident that happened 5 years ago.
I was thinking about making alt, but they’ll know my accounts that linked with my ip.
Doesn’t mean he will be eligible either. The fact that it happened 5 years ago does not matter. Roblox has a table of moderation logs with your bans, warnings, and all of that stuff. They don’t disappear over time. They will always be there. At any time, roblox can just see your lifetime moderation history wether it would have happened 10, 5, or 2 years ago.
In the FAQ they say old moderation actions don’t make you ineligible for DevEx. Do not spread misinformation. Especially considering the fact that he got compromised, this will not affect his eligibility.

If you actually read the FAQ you would know that this is completely false.
You are the only one here that is spreading misinformation. I recommend you get your facts right next time and read the FAQ instead of making up stuff.

Things like exploiting won’t make you ineligible, things like buying robux off-site or involving yourself in monetary activities regarding- but against roblox ToS, will absolutely get you blacklisted from DevEx.
If you can prove this:
Second time someone stole my account it had weak password, and he got me banned
Then you’ll be fine (Due to the nature of stealing usually being monetary involvment, I’m assuming it was a worse ban). The bad word infraction is entirely meaningless afaik.

You said that. That is an extremely old punishment, and considering the fact his account got compromised, this shouldn’t affect him. Also, many violations don’t make you ineligible for DevEx.
“…and the timing of it…”

Did you ntoify Roblox at the time to it being account compromised?
I got a ban for scamming once (it was a twitter shortener link to a form at the time for a role-play job test/application) and my father got that appealed/compensated.
(and about a week later twitter shortener links were no longer allowed)
The only way to be sure is to try to make a request, if it’s declined you’ll get your R$100K back. This question comes up quite a bit on these forums and people are generally fine.

The FAQ implies that only certain infractions are subject to getting your devex declined regardless of timing, while other older, more minor ones are fine.

Look, I don’t think 7-14 Days Ban is a punishment for a minor infraction. My infraction is not minor. Roblox won’t pass scamming or posting inappropriate pictures. How they will know that my account was compromised at that time? and if I got rejected do I need to contact them about that ban?
I remember that Roblox used to give warnings and ban to players that say bad words. There was no chat filtering.
Doesn’t matter, you got banned, now it’s still an infranction but completely meaningless to DevEx.

But will they know at that time my account was stolen? or do I need to contact them after I get rejected ?
They likely have methods to check, none of us here would have that kind of information, you’ll have to take it up with roblox when you’ve met all the other criterion and been turned down.

I feel like 5 years ago it’s a bit much. If you’re 18, you were 13 when you sent these. You’ve changed in this timestamp. I don’t think they’ll matter that much at 5 year old reports which are just some swear words.
Exploiting isn’t allowed. If you get banned for exploiting, DevEx program staff can choose to take this moderation into account (both the severity and currency of the incident) or waive it. This is expressly mentioned in both program articles.
There’s a lot of developers on this platform who have a bit of bad history but made a turn for the better, and I think the devex team understands that. I wouldn’t worry about it too much, just go for it and stride forth with confidence. Especially considering that these things happened years ago, you should be completely fine. I think my existence as a developer is enough to prove that…
