Hello, Roblox Developers!
I saw a discussion saying about user input sent outside of roblox is meant to be filtered.
I’m especially talking about buildthomas’ post:
What do I mean with that?
I suggest creating special filtering function which would work like Chat’s FilterStringForBroadcast function, but it won’t filter string to be safe for 13- children. I would just filter string like for 13+ people. This could secure Roblox user’s personal informations (like phone numbers according to buildthomas) and won’t tag the most of the sentence (like original function), which makes it unreadable. It wold be useful in case developers would want to make a feedback system only for themselves (such as Discord hooks). Something such as sender -> developer filter. Sadly… The normal filtering function (both 13- and 13+) accepts only player instances as arguments. If it would be possible to enter user ids there it would be surely easier, but I wonder it could be abused with filtering each user’s id and check does it equal to normal 13- / 13+ filtered string.
Sooo…
It’s hard for Roblox developers to secure user’s privacy in feedbacks system when you want to keep the message readable, but filtered…
I hope You will understand my request.
I can’t wait to hear your opinions about it.
Sincerely,
DevKurka.
