As more time passes on, the more cases like these are sure to arise. I have recently seen 2 other Roblox developer accounts get terminated around our community, however I do not have direct communication with them to verify exactly what is it.
Realistically this post should be marked as “[CRITICAL]” since it has the possibility to affect the lively-hood of developers on this platform on-top of wasting all of our time for possibly weeks/months+.
I been on this platform for 15 YEARS, and this looks exactly like what happened in 2022.
Same i has been on this platform for 8 years i has create the account cuervodel1995 8 years ago, and then my main account got false terminated without reason i still fighting to get unbanned
Is this report written by AI? Something about the amount of repeated unnecessary/redundant information/advice that doesn’t really look like it would help at all and seems to contradict previous points is just strange.
This point doesn’t even seem to be relevant to the bug itself, not to mention, you already said this before. It’s fine as a small mention, but you don’t have to say this every two seconds with a description.
What does 2FA have to do with bans?
This would help more in the case of needing to change your account email, what would this do in the case of a false termination?
This isn’t even related, you already said this exploit works on accounts that haven’t violated any rules (and failed to provide information on how the exploit actually works for Roblox to fix)
yeah, it’s a bit repetitive and not super well put together. But honestly, I don’t think the writing style is what matters here.
This exploit is very real. I’ve been in group chats where people were literally doing it live, and you can find examples of it on Twitter too. It’s not just some made-up theory, people are paying others to get accounts banned, and it’s affecting legit devs, creators, and regular players.
It’s possible the person who reported it didn’t really know how to word things properly and maybe used AI to help. But that doesn’t change the fact that the issue they’re trying to explain actually is happening.
So instead of focusing on whether it sounds like AI or not, I think the priority should be looking into the actual problem, especially since it’s already being abused out in the open.
We don’t actually know the full method behind the exploit, if we did, it probably would’ve been reported dozens of times by now. What we do know is that we’ve seen someone use the regular “report abuse” function on a user, and then say that it’s just part of the process, that there are more steps involved to force a termination.
Whether the targeted user actually did anything wrong is unclear, which makes this whole thing even messier. Right now it’s all a bit blurry. But one thing we’ve noticed is that Roblox has been quietly unterminating a bunch of accounts during investigations, and this has been going on for a few months now.
Exact That’s why my main account was falsely terminated. I know this is a moderation error. Maybe the exploit caused moderation to ban innocent people. if you check the other post Common Issues Revolving 'Enforcement Terminations' Both have one thing in common, which is that exploit caused a bug and got innocent people banned, it makes no sense.
Not saying the issue at hand isn’t a problem or that it isn’t real, but the post doesn’t seem very helpful, they might as well have said that there was a problem and left it up to the engineers if all they were doing was bringing attention to the issue.
This is really bad and these people should absolutely be terminated. I have found another way that this is done. If they are able to find your email connected to your Roblox account, you are screwed. They are able to input your email and username into a support form and then they threaten Roblox HQ and say other bad things. Not only can you get terminated for this, but also get into trouble with the police. And they can do this with no verification required. Please add 2 step verification to support forms.
I hope anyone affected by this can get your account back!
I was added to a gc by some old friends (who I’ve since cut ties with, I don’t condone what they’re doing and I’m not affiliated with them in any way). In that gc, they shared a few steps of how the exploit works, but they didn’t reveal the full method.
What I do know is that people are actually paying, and paying a lot to have certain users quietly terminated. Most of the time, these are innocent people who don’t have strong connections or visibility. They usually try to appeal, but that rarely leads anywhere so they lost everything.
I agree that the post is written in a weird way, and yeah a stronger, more well-structured post could definitely get more attention. But the issue is, if we make a new one now, it’ll likely get buried under this one since it was posted earlier and already has visibility.
TDLR: (a devforum mod will rage at me saying please do not make clones of reports )
I think, the reason of the false termination via false reports with exploit, than generates a bug into a false termination is because of the ip, i know there more people than are false terminated too, is there a solution to resolve the bug
I feel like this thread is just ai generated and just doesn’t explain directly how the exploit works, huge complication on the text.
When I wrote a little report on terminations by proximity I not only mentioned how they worked but also explained some bugs and mistakes related to this, using the report to also talk about how many flaws the current roblox system has and how many problems it can cause in the future
Slight update: 2 more people that are apart of staff in my group have also been targeted (oxIayde & jothez).
Instead of account termination, it has caused seemingly harmless places from their profiles to be taken “Under moderation review” and “[Content Deleted]”.
What I’m going to assume here is that they’re probably doing inappropriate things in the game and reporting it via DSA/OSA, then the moderators who handle that illegal content report join the server to see if such things are actually happening, and shut the game down upon seeing the inappropriate content present in the game. Maybe they could make their games private for now.
Slightly concerning how ROBLOX automates bans on such important users that generate a living off of its platform, could seriously affect people’s living conditions and health
Once contacting ROBLOX support about a termination it should always be reviewed by a human even if the response times are within a week. This ensures that developers who are making a living income off ROBLOX aren’t feeling hopeless about ever getting unbanned. Communication is definitely needed in situations like these.
