You are wrong here, these bundles you mentioned have no reason to have their upper modesty layer since they dont have anything to hide.
Its you and your brain who sexualize everything you see. These bundles dont have any private part shown, just a blank surface so that is up to your imagination.
Seriously.

I do think moderation needs to be improved quite a lot, there’s a lot of users posting and reuploading ROBLOX made assets which I think is a huge problem, especially for those who work very diligently on their own accessories and bundles all for the catalog to be pushed with stolen assets such as these ones I found (this group seems to be filled with a ton of stolen assets):
if I recall on the AMA they had a few days ago they did mention they would be taking action against creators who do this so hopefully we see a improvement in moderation overall

This is a separate issue that I conveniently reported a few days ago:
Please give it a like and a bump if you’re interested.

No, im just saying you guys are delusional. You guys sexualize everything you see even a cartoonish non humanlike chibby characters.
Children dont even care or think about these things.
Squidward from spongebob has no pants(Shocking)
Sonic has no clothing.
You should check disney characters from movies you will be surprised.
Yeah the child brain doesnt think the same way as the adult brain, so as long as there is no oversized or any private part representation there is no reason to censor bundles.
What is next? modesty layer on the original old blocky characters… oh LOL that already happened

While some of these definitely should have a modesty layer, most of them do not resemble a human body. I can agree that “It-Girl Baddie Doll” is starting to resemble a human body the others do not, including the one you posted. These look more like lego character and don’t have a realistic human body look. If you look at the examples roblox provided they look way more human. In addition roblox will automatically apply 2d modesty clothing to transparent characters if you don’t wear any shirt or pants.

This raises the question: why do those “Lego” bundles get deleted when they don’t have a modesty layer, while these half-transparent ones are clearly added to bypass the requirement and make it look like they have a modesty layer? If not for this, they would be deleted. Roblox moderates them under the “Romantic and Sexual Content” standard, whether you call them blocky or whatever else.
This bug report addresses very valid points. As for the replies from others, they’re either just opinions or off-topic. To those who haven’t contributed anything relevant: if you don’t have something genuine to add, it’s better not to reply at all, as it doesn’t help. This was genuinely a concern of mine.

The reason they get moderated is because roblox moderation is awful. Roblox most likely doesn’t even look at the mesh and check if it resembles a human body or not (not talking about if it looks like the character has female characteristics or not). This post is about someone being unable to upload their custom body even though they’re clearly following the modesty guidelines.
Another example of roblox’s horrible moderation is all of the UGC accessories being focused on making a big female chest. While it’s natural they’re clearly meant for other purposes and definitely encourages it. According to roblox it’s against the guidelines to create accessories that encourage that type of behavior.
Not to mention the characters that are just recreations of characters from nsfw movies.
(These are off topic but prove my point that roblox moderation is inconsistent and bad)
It is difficult to determine what is actually breaking the TOS when roblox is so inconsistent with their moderation and at the end of the day it is really up to you if you choose to think it’s sexual that a lego character doesn’t have a black bar covering their chest area or not. Infact the second example you attached looks more like a modified roblox bundle, which does break other guidelines but since roblox uploaded the original package without modesty clothing there is clearly a line to be drawn somewhere between lego non human characters and human characters.
To make it clear, I do believe modesty clothing should be enforced on human looking characters, but it should also be clear that this rule should only apply to human looking characters. “Modesty layers are required if your avatar character resembles a human”

After careful examination, we confirm that the reported examples contain the necessary modesty layers.

I don’t understand this because I’ve read your policy several times. In fact, I’d like to support my claim directly with screenshots. Below is a screenshot from the Marketplace Policy showing the example avatar bundles they provided regarding modesty layers being fully opaque and specifying which types of avatars they should be for.
The policy states that modesty layers must be completely opaque, yet all the ones in this report have around 0.5 transparency, which clearly violates this rule. Could you explain the design aspect of this?
Specifically, your policies already show how modesty layers should appear in bundles similar to these—take a look at the screenshot below, especially at the Scarlett bundle. The bundles in this report allow for the creation of characters that directly expose the avatar’s hips down to the groin area, which your policy does not permit.
I believe a review is necessary, or at least a clear explanation of what exactly you’re referring to, because what I’ve quoted here completely contradicts what you’re saying.
If I were to take a guess from your examples, although may not be the best explanation the characters dont exactly resemble a living humanoid creature, instead look more like toys if that makes sense
I am not sure about the fully opaque part though, the policy explanation might be outdated or unclear.
The main reason bundle creators want to avoid using modesty layers is for it to be 2D clothing compatible, and people usually dont like modesty just sticking out on their avatars for no reason. There is no intention to create abusable bundles in the examples you gave, so Roblox just allows it.

I’m really starting to question the OP’s motives. It shouldn’t matter whether or not one is famous because the rules apply to everyone. After reviewing the examples, I don’t see any that seem to have malicious intent. I figure moderation might be being lenient in response to this feature request that was posted awhile back. Maybe, the modesty layer policy hasn’t been updated to reflect these changes yet.
Also, pinging the UGC creators to call them out is unnecessary and makes this report seem more like a personal attack.

You’re going a bit off-topic here, but since you brought it up, I’ll respond.
If the modesty layer policy hadn’t been updated, the staff would have said so. I don’t think that’s the case here. That staff member has already corrected what they wrote—before, they said it was “by design” and that the rule was followed, but now they’re saying there is a “required modesty layer.” Everyone agrees that there is one, but the issue starts with its transparency. The policy states that it “must be fully opaque,” which completely contradicts this, yet people keep twisting and interpreting it however they want.
The argument that the characters aren’t realistic or resembling humans and therefore don’t need a modesty layer has already been debunked by the staff themselves because they said it has a “required” modesty layer.
The issue still contradicts the rules, despite everyone here arguing otherwise. The modesty layers are supposed to be fully opaque, yet none of them are. How is this even up for debate? Some of you really make me think.
Yes, the rules apply to everyone, but they are literally role models, and since they appeal to an audience, you naturally expect them to always act correctly. Otherwise, those who become popular without displaying ethical behavior eventually get canceled, and no one supports them after a while. So, this would mostly go against what is generally accepted. That’s why they need to be more mindful of the rules than random UGC creators. Everyone is watching them, and they attract much more attention than others. Because of that, they need to take the right steps to avoid criticism. You can think of it like YouTubers—hopefully, I don’t need to explain this further; you get the idea.
Because despite Roblox’s rules, we are allowed to have opinions and whoever is handling moderation seems to agree that the use cases here are not malicious even though they are dancing in a gray area against the rules. They correctly use Roblox’s 2D clothing UV maps and they do provide a visible modesty layer to appease the demands of the moderators inspecting the preview.
When you inspect every one of these provided examples, the 2D clothing renders correctly on the body parts:
You are clearly aware of this already because you posted a screenshot of the torso trying to make a point of how the line was rendering transparent. So what is your deal? What is your grudge against 2D clothing?

I don’t understand your argument regarding 2D clothing. Isn’t the whole point of the modesty layer to prevent inappropriate content since people can customize that area however they want? Either way, a single sentence in the Marketplace completely invalidates everything you’re saying. I’m tired of repeating myself—the real issue here is that the modesty layer is transparent, and Roblox classifies that as Romantic and Sexual content.
Also, I don’t bring this up often, but I once reported a bundle through the DSA Report channel for having a transparent modesty layer, and it was literally taken down. This just adds up—moderators don’t seem to think much differently than I do.

I understand your concerns about the modesty layers, the moderation not exactly lining up with the policy written down or a general concern about abuse
But, the bug report has been adressed a few replies ago by a staff member. I don’t see any more reason to continue this topic as its only a heated argument now, and even less of a chance now staff will take a look at it.

After reading this whole thread, the things you have said so far are shameless and malicious in nature, particularly coming from someone who actively exploits Roblox marketplace loopholes in order to earn money from stolen assets and intellectual property.
Why go out of your way to try and harm legitimate UGC creators over an imaginary problem which causes no real safety issues to Roblox users? I understand wanting clarification on Roblox’s moderation policy, but it is clear that this is not the intention of this post, you are attempting to justify this weird resentment you against bundle creators. It really doesn’t look good when you start pinging so many of them in your thread, followed by posting screenshots of filing DSA reports against them.
They have done nothing to you, and if anything, your actions including Intellectual Property theft prove to be more harmful to the community than whatever problem you’re trying to portray here.
Please reconsider your intentions in the future.
