15:04:56 -- These two users cannot communicate (ChatService:CanUsersChat returned false)
    Stack Begin
    Script 'Players.TaxFraudBruh.PlayerScripts.ChatScript.ChatMain', Line 1180
    Stack End
15:04:56 -- Requested module experienced an error while loading
    Stack Begin
    Script 'Players.TaxFraudBruh.PlayerScripts.ChatScript', Line 26 - function DoEverything
    Script 'Players.TaxFraudBruh.PlayerScripts.ChatScript', Line 144
    Stack End

If you play in the same server as a blocked user then ChatScript will error on line 144 due to an error inside ChatScript.ChatMain on line 1180. This error causes the chat to completely break and results in myself being unable to chat at all. This error has also occurred on other games and not just the one in the screenshot.

Expected behavior

The error shouldn’t cause the chat to completely break. The error should be handled correctly and not just left to break the chat.

I highly doubt that Roblox is going to fix any bugs related to the Legacy Chat System, unless they’re severe. Why? Simply because the Legacy Chat System has been deprecated for a while and is soon going to be removed (at the end of April of this year).

He’s reporting about this bug from the POV of a player, not a developer. There are still so many games out there still using the Legacy Chat System and if any player got the bug then it isn’t their fault. Please think well before posting any comments.
