The Roblox Community “Roblox em Português” (ID: 4806497) appears to be experiencing an issue related to the join indication system.
Currently, several old users—including inactive accounts and even deleted accounts—are being shown in the Members section as if they joined recently, which is misleading. These accounts include:
Arallyon (Arallyon - Roblox) — a former Roblox employee with the Administrator badge but no recent activity.
Notice that some of the listed users appear with recent join indicators, despite:
3.1. Being inactive for long periods
3.2. Having left the company
3.3. Or having their accounts deleted
Expected Behavior
The join indication should accurately reflect when a user joined the community; Inactive or deleted users should not be displayed as recently joined, and community member listings should rely on correct backend timestamps or metadata for join dates.
This ongoing problem is also occurring in other Roblox communities. After reviewing my Roblox community, Steampunk Entertainment - Roblox, I realized that the order of those who have the Member role assigned is incorrect. It’s displaying those who have joined a long time ago as recent instead of showing actual users who joined recently.
Another example is the Roblox community “Русскоговорящие разработчики Roblox” (ID: 12735774), where it shows that I joined recently while in reality, I joined when it was made.
I have high confidence that the order is rendering oldest->newest on this rank set, as we had all of the admin users kicked when the owner’s account was compromised several years back.
