I did, thanks. There was not a whole lot on the game and the person maybe thought it was alright to copy it, but them being able to send messages for a while with my private token was concerning.

Can we expect an incident report as to how this even happened, considering it’s a critical issue? Transparency is a welcome change that hasn’t always been the culture until recently, but it would be great if you let developers know why this happened and what steps you’ve taken to prevent this from occurring again. :slightly_smiling_face:

the fact they knew what to do with a private token is a sign they knew it wasn’t okay.

Considering Roblox’ track record of such stupidly insecure accidental updates, I doubt we’ll get a report as they want to hide this MASSIVE mistake from investors instead of being honest to everyone.

We have now retroactively set all places affected by this bug to no longer allow copying. Thank you for your patience.

They’ve done it before. So they might do it again.

Will Roblox send a message to all affected developers? Surely Roblox logs people who download places. Developers should know if their game has for sure been downloaded by someone, rather than never knowing if there may exist a copy out there.

Is there a way to prevent this glitch (Uncopylocked games glitch) from happening again? :thinking:

I’m talking about whether games republished will be taken down or not.

That’s cap. Where is the leaked copy the ?

The fact that Roblox is in the tens of billions of dollars, and Roblox is still too lazy to fix bugs like this.

Embarassing.

Lazy?

Roblox took this seriously and fixed this in less than a day. They even said it themselves that they knew the high severity of the situation. Don’t jump to conclusions without knowing all the information.

Also remember that ForeverDev is the Lead Programmer of My Restaurant, so you shouldn’t doubt that he’d be wrong.
