Tried checking out the items someone was wearing. As of today (?) the user profile no longer individually displays the items someone is wearing (shown in the image).
Same goes for their inventory, which is blank regardless of their privacy setting.
Ah, I did consider it a possibility, going off of a YouTube title by SharkBlox.
Not sure it this is some way from Roblox to work around the issue (I’m not known with it) or indeed, as you said, excessive use of the API.
Regardless, I would’ve at least liked to see a mentioning of it somewhere. Even a TextLabel on the page mentioning something’s down or not working right - perhaps even with this lil’ character
