So we kind of got a third way to report chat messages instead of getting the bugs fixed, nice. Roblox got their priorities straight as I can see. I am not sure how useful reporting individual chat messages is, as with the current behavior, reporting one person already sends the entire chat log to moderation and thus you can get all violators moderated at once and quickly with one report, even if the violations differ.

i don’t see why we needed another report button regardless

That report button sends you to the report menu in the escape menu. This is the chat report menu:

I do think it is better. But that is just my opinion.

yes, that was captured in game. pwease don’t ban me I was just doing you a favor roblox :pray:

this could have been integrated in any of the 5 existing flows

Cc: @be_nj (I put wrong category instead of engine bug so it might’ve went unnoticed)

No worries, I noticed earlier and forwarded the feedback to the relevant team to take a look. I agree it looks a bit odd intersecting the messages

It is functionally better in the way that you can report somebody who is no longer in the server using this method.
Had a few times where people bypassed the nword but nobody could report them bc they would leave immediatly after. Reporting from the website isn’t worth the effort

Has this entire feature been flipped off by chance? I had it yesterday but don’t have it today. Same account, same device.
