Roblox added a new feature that added an out-of-game chat suspension, which in my opinion is quite ridiculous. The first time I had encountered this is when I was trying to send a link to a Roblox game to one of my friends, and I would get this warning. After multiple attempts to pass the link, I get a 9-minute suspension from being able to chat with that particular friend. I couldn’t find anything else about this online so I am writing this right now. I can understand just censoring it with hashtags, but this is just absurd. The message looks like this:
And the message to trigger it? Well…
I don’t really care about bad Roblox updates, but this really set me off. I want this to ACTUALLY filter out bad stuff instead of petty things like “Get’er done” when all I was talking to was one of my developer friends in a joking manner. And to give me a nine-minute suspension for a ROBLOX GAME?! I can understand an external link, but Roblox is really just shooting itself in the foot here.
The thing is, it seems like its automatic. Because after I got the first warning sending a link, I began to spam it in hopes of it coming through unfiltered. It seems, like voice chat, this system is completely automatic. And I do not know of any person in my friends list who would report me for something they are unable to see, because of the chat moderation being only visible to the sender.
Another thing is, it gave me the suspension almost immediately.
I’ve gotten this before I wasn’t disclosing or asking for the particular friend I was talking to at the time for their PPI (personal private information) I wasn’t suspended at all however just seemed like a warning even though my account was not striked, it was very random to.
