Places Incorrectly Marked "Experimental Mode" on Develop Page

Games with filtering enabled turned on are being incorrectly labelled as “Experimental Mode” on the Develop page. (Figures 1 and 2). Also, any game that contains a place that is incorrectly labelled “experimental mode”, shows the entire game tagged as experimental (see figure 3). I just noticed this bug about 30 minutes before posting this. I have tried disabling and re-enabling filtering, but it still says “Experimental”.

Here are some examples:

  1. This place was made Filtering Enabled today and it still says “Experimental Mode”. Link.

2. This place has had filtering enabled for over a year. In addition, the game itself hasn’t been edited since 2016. Link.

3. All of the places within this game have filtering enabled turned on yet the entire game is still marked Experimental. Link.

I’m unsure if this is affecting players ability to find the games. Are games with this “experimental” tag being hidden from users under a certain age yet?

From what I heard, this can be resolved by joining the game once after FE has been enabled. ROBLOX categorizes experimental mode based on the last server that existed. This should probably be changed so that it updates on publish, as you are not the first person to run into this, and the solution is non-obvious.

Any of this games have other places in their universes which are not filtering?

Found that my menu wasnt FE protected, which is super odd and extremly dangerous.
Wow. Check your menu @Mimi_Dev, maybe roblox disabled FE on some universe game places?

I wish the “games” page would show the “experimental” image, that the develop page has, if it isn’t FE.
So that people know if it’s FE or not.

To clarify this, the status changes when a new instance of the game launches. If a server is already running and you join it, the status will not change.

I did find a few games with it off but mostly they were dev servers no one could access anyway (which is making removing the Experimental tags more difficult because servers never run in those versions). Every game is FE now though.

Does the Active or Inactive status have any effect on this? I have several inactive games that all have filtering enabled, yet they are listed as Experimental Mode.

Have you played your inactive places? Since they’re inactive, I’d guess not.
