So I’m trying to publish my game so I can make DevProducts, but there’s a problem:
I was just editing the name and description of my game on the Roblox website, but it won’t let me save changes because…
Apparently I have an inappropriate name/description?
The name of my game is Developer Collaboration Hangout.
This is the description:
Welcome to the Developer Collaboration Hangout, where you can socialize with other developers of Roblox and create your dream team for a game you wish to make! Show others your skills in hopes of getting hired, or offer other developers jobs for pay! You may discuss payment in the form of Robux, but not real currency. If you enjoy the game/hangout, give it a thumbs up, follow the game, and feel free to donate! Thanks for visiting and I hope you find this game useful as a developer!
Probably the error was ‘real currency’, but the thing is that I tried using the title and description in a game I had out there and it didn’t mark it as an error.
Inappropriate place name or description is simply Roblox’s way of telling you that something in the title or description is going to be hash tagged so instead of letting you save, it gives this warning instead.
Kinda makes it difficult to know what is hash tagged but it’s not intending to say that what you typed is innaproperate.
This is most likely bug, because it before happens to me I was not able to change the game name to most likely everything but I can put it to stuff like “e” only, even tho the game name was not inappropriate or something, after a while ago it worked perfect with same name I wanted, so I believe this is a bug and you should try moving this to #platform-feedback:website-bugs and good luck.
It’s not a great idea to discuss payment in the game description. I’d try to keep it as short and summarised as possible, therefore I’d remove the discussion about payment.
Personally, I’d just get rid of this whole part as it is not very helpful and this is probably the part that Roblox has deemed to be inappropriate.
Alright, I did get the part about currency out of the way. My description now says:
Welcome to the Developer Collaboration Hangout, where you can socialize with other developers of Roblox and create your dream team for a game you wish to make! Show others your skills in hopes of getting hired, or offer other developers jobs. If you enjoy the game/hangout, give it a thumbs up, follow the game, and feel free to donate! Thanks for visiting and I hope you find this game useful as a developer!
Update: After deleting all the settings of my game, including name and description, I logged out of Roblox and logged back in. I configured my name and changed “real life currency” to “real currency”, and it worked. Don’t know why it showed up as inappropriate at first. Thanks for all the help/suggestions!
