Roblox Groups API broken for my user account, but not for others

Description:
The bug seems to occur inernally in the ROBLOX Groups API, so there isn’t much I can provide here.

Started Happening aprox. 3 days ago, from when this post was posted. Date shown below
2020-06-07T22:00:00Z

Reproduction Steps:
My code to reproduce in studio, or in a live server:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(p)
    print(p:GetRankInGroup( 3620943 )) -- Also happens for any other valid group ID
end)

reproduces the bug for me, but it is unlikely to do so for you, as this is, from what I can tell, only for my account

Here’s a method for (hopefully) anyone to reproduce this:

game:GetService( 'GroupService' ):GetGroupsAsync( 137413810 ) -- 137413810 is my UserId - it breaks
game:GetService( 'GroupService' ):GetGroupsAsync( 103451698 ) -- 103451698 is BanTech's UserId - it works somehow

Log Files (only containing the logs really near the issue - as in 5 logs after the output:

Error: GroupService:GetGroupsAsync() failed because HTTP 500 (InternalServerError)
Info: Stack Begin
Info: Script 'print(game:GetService( 'GroupService' ):GetGroupsAsync( game.Players.LocalPlayer.UserId ))', Line 1

PacketReturnQueue is empty, no work to do
RakPeer has distributed 182 packets to plugins since last debug time
PacketReturnQueue is empty, no work to do
10 RakPeer has distributed 40 packets to plugins since last debug time

It prints an HTTP 500 so this is likely not relevant

Further info:
On groups pages, like Stepford County Railway - Roblox, the groups list never loads. This is likely the same issue.
This started happening right after I joined a group with a partially censored name, to claim it, to see what it was before the old owner left, as I was curious. It didn’t let me claim ownership, neither did it let me leave. Link to said group is: ##### The Great Order - Roblox

(I hope I did everything correctly this time)

This is still occuring, 3 days later, and the website>Create button now randomly gives a 400 - likely related

It’d be best if you showed either a gif or a screenshot of that 400 error.

Am writing a response to a normal roblox support ticket about it - here’s a screenshot of the screenshots:

Bumping as its still an issue. This is becoming less of an irritating bug, but more of a complete workflow bug as I cannot do anything related to group games, or anything. Basically, if it involves a group, it doesn’t work, for me.

Update, as i forgot to put this in the original post:
The bug also affects ROBLOX Studio’s home screen, as it no longer lists groups on the “My Games”>“Group Games” page, but instead shows this:


(not even a dropdown menu with no entries)

@0J3_0 This issue should be fixed for you now.
