Full control over the player kick message

[DevBuckette]

As a Roblox developer, it is currently impossible to completely control the message a player receives upon being kicked. This used to be the default behaviour, as is shown on the developer wiki:

But now the kick reason is always displayed as You have been kicked from the game: [Given Reason]

I want to be able to have full control on this kick message without more text being added in by default.

If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my development experience because I like to make sure that my feedback to the client is always precisely as I want it. If I expect to be able to give the player a specific message, I want them to receive that message precisely, and not altered out of my own control.

Another good take on this by @buildthomas would be:

Maybe they can make the header “Kicked from game” instead of “Disconnected”, then they don’t have to add it in the description. It should be mentioned that the game itself caused the disconnection somewhere, because otherwise it can be misleading to the player if the developer gives a non-descript / inappropriate message.

That’s a great idea. I’ve added it to the OP.
