List for every "inappropriate" word on Roblox?

Help and Feedback Game Design Support
#1

I know that this may be in the wrong topic, but let me explain. I have made a texting gui for texting other players in Roblox. According to guidelines, I also made a working chat filter, but I’m not sure which words are deemed “inappropriate” on Roblox. All I’m asking is for a list of all the words that are considered bad on Roblox so that my account or game(s) don’t go under review.

why are you making your own, roblox already has a chat filter system.

Probably it is needed, I’m not sure where to find that but maybe try asking @Roblox Support?

#4

Not everyone is perfect so people bypassing is a risk.

#5

It’s a texting gui so I need a filter

#6

There’s no need for a custom chat filter and you can’t end up going under review just because players said some bad words in your games so don’t worry

I tried this as one of my first methods and it didn’t work but maybe I could read into it more

Did you use the example?


local TextService = game:GetService("TextService")

local filteredText = ""
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
	filteredTextResult = TextService:FilterStringAsync(text, fromPlayerId)
end)
if not success then
	warn("Error filtering text:", text, ":", errorMessage)
	-- Put code here to handle filter failure
end

It doesnt really make sense to be making your own Filter as Roblox has already Provided it like what the others said, We arent really allowed to say explicitly what they are because of reasons, But basically can be found under the Profanities in Community Standards that you arent allowed to say curse words from any language or symbols to trick the Filter System.

All you really need to know is that any type of Profanity or Swearing is bad, there are a few exceptions to this rule however, Like for Example:

  • Badass
  • Damn
  • Hell
  • Heck

A lot of these Standards are being removed or less enforced for games under a higher Age Recommendation.
