I had a game on roblox that was like those weird survival games on roblox and it was doing completely fine until 2 days ago when it was deleted. When I went into my account it said roblox gave me a warning for “Copyright Infringement” on my game and it had been deleted, so when I saw that i remember the day before, u had released an update with nintendo’s Mario character as a killer, but i didn’t realise it was copyright protected, so when I published the update, i made an icon and thumbnail for it, then the next day the game was deleted. I felt as this was unfair because first, my game makes no money, second, it was an update with just a mario character in my game, and a icon and thumbnail of it when roblox could have just asked me to remove the character and thumbnail, third, my game does not revoulve around the character Mario, so it seems unfair that they would delete my game right off the bat just because I added a simple character from nintendo to it, I can understand a game like pokemon brick bronze was deleted because it revoulved mainly around pokemon, which is a reason for nintendo to delete it, but for my game, mario was just a character i could have removed to prevent roblox from being sued, but let’s get to my main question now, since my game was deleted it was also put under review, which means nobody including me can play it, so is it possible if the game could be made public again if i remove the character or whatever else broke TOS? Also you might be thinking, “Why don’t you just send an appeal to roblox?”, Well i did but still have not gotten a response, and I would like to know if what I want to do is possible and can get my game back up, I’m not here to rant about how it was unfair that they deleted my game, but if it’s possible to delete what inside my game broke TOS and get the game back up.
Uh, yeah. If you remove the inappropriate content inside your game, it will be playable again, but not immediately.
It wasn’t innoproperiate content rather copyrighted content which would be the character Mario from Nintendo
And the game is Content Deleted so would I still be able to?
You can probably appeal to roblox if the content is deleted. I haven’t gotten entire games moderated, so I’m not sure.
Though I’m pretty sure content deleted games are able to be made public, you just have to rewrite the name, description and reupload logos.
With my game, however, it is Content Deleted, and put under review
I’m wondering if what I could do is remove Mario from the game then appeal to roblox saying “i deleted mario from the game can you bring it back up now?” Would that work?
Try and get rid of te bad stuff. If you can’t update it, just make it under a new game.
If it is under review it is under review; I’d think Roblox would contact you with a summary of why your game was against tos. If that email doesn’t come, contact roblox yourself to ask for further support.
That’s actually another question I have, am i allowed to completely restore the game myself in another place but remove Mario? Is that breaking TOS
But my question is if i could just go and delete whatever was in my game that broke TOS (which would be mario for copyright) and tell roblox that it no longer breaks the rules of copyright so can they bring it back up?
If the copyright asset is removed, you should be able to publish the place.
If not, contact Roblox Support.
I will be able to publish the game, however since it is under review, nobody can play the game, so would I tell roblox that i removed the copyrighted asset and request they bring my game back up?
Hopfully.
If not, publish it as a new game and put the new link in the old game’s desription.
I heard people say that when something in their game breaks tos and their game gets under review, they just remove it and their game is back up like normal, even in the roblox wiki it says that, but i did contact roblox support saying i would do that exact thing but have not gotten a response yet
Ok. Try it.
But, I THINK “Roblox Wiki” isn’t an official part of Roblox.
You should have a responce from roblox soon.
Do what you can!
It sad how roblox didn’t give me a warning beforehand and just straight up deleted my game for something i could have removed in 30 seconds
Just like what i said before, it seems more logical to request i remove the asset instead of deleting the entire game but I’m not complaining against what roblox does but i find it unfair
Yes, If you remove the things they ask you to remove when they PM you on Roblox the reason for your game being taken down you can email them to have your game reopened. This has happened to me multiple times in the past.
The only thing they sent me was that my game was taken down for copyright Infringement, they didn’t specify what was copyrighted but i assume it’s the mario character since it happened quickly when I updated the game with the character
