Someone else in that post also posted this image too as well which can be taken both ways, but I’m leaning that I have to somehow
Idk why Roblox doesn’t let us filter text in Studio
Me either. I guess I can submit this as a feature request? Or a ‘Bug report’ as you can’t comply with roblox terms?
I think you have to send an email to Roblox about this.
Or in DevForum.
Like a ‘trust and safety’ report?
idk
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I made a post in this area
If a roblox administrative or another user is seeing the post and has another area or recommend a different place for this request lmk. I can’t post in #feature-requests:studio-features / #bug-reports:studio-bugs (“if you count is as a bug because It can’t allow roblox terms”)
Shouldn’t you use the “How to” category?
This is for reporting users.
Theres no great place for this post. As the “How to” is just general info.
I am just hoping that they can refer this to someone how works in that field and/or give me a place. Because I can’t use the other dev forum areas.
In my Brain, Moderation existed which is the real category for reporting users
User safety concerns seems like a category of ‘concerns of possible safety that could happen in the future’
oh ok
i hate character limits
I’m so confused… Isn’t this… a safety request ( to allow Filtering chat in studio for safety reasons) ? And what do I do next
Text not filtering in studio shouldn’t be considered a bug since that’s been the case for years now (and Roblox explicits states “in experience” when referring to filtering). You’re not displaying the text to other users so filtering shouldn’t be a problem.
Well I am and that’s the issue. Every developer, and other developers if the user is within a team creation session. Since this is a public plug-in
In that case, you should use HttpService:GenerateGUID (or some other name generator) since the likely-hood of it generating any innappropriate content is fairly low. I still don’t believe that filtering should be an issue since Roblox doesn’t provide plugin related filtering APIs so anything that were to happen as a result of it would be due to Roblox’s negligence (using custom filters without the official one still violates the TOS)
Well the issue isn’t just this as I accept user input in different tools. Also not to mention that GeneratedGUID generates an extremely long string. Which I want my system to have some customization.
Well I know this isn’t a “bug”, this was intentionally design which causes a ‘bug’ for safety, it creates a void because you can’t follow the TOS while making a plug-in, so if someone were to report my plug-in for inappropriate content, I’m assuming I’m in trouble as the plugin creator when though idk what to do and roblox doesn’t provide any tools as far as I know.
Which I’m asuming a custom filter is also against TOS because they want people to use the roblox filter, but you can’t use the default one here .
cant you just use string.sub?
yk
filtering in studio isn’t really an issue. this plugin uses the filter api provided by roblox, even though it doesn’t do anything in studio. it also has a second silly filter, but this is unnecessary.
Yes, but the terms of service and the docs page are uh… Not clear. I would rather have a filter, for random results, as the doc page says to have one and use only the roblox one provided, but I don’t want my plugin taken down for results it output and someone reported it.
My plugin is not just length, you can customize more, like have numbers only etc. Also doesn’t help whenever I collect anything with a Textbox
In simple terms, I don’t want to be responsible, and want to rely for what My thing generates and follow the roblox rules so my plugin can stay for a long time. And not have it taken down because I didn’t follow them
Why not generate the strings with hexadecimals?
(I mean using numbers from 0-9 and letters from A-F)
You won’t have to filter them at all because there would be no chance of creating inappropriate words.
