Roblox needs to fix their image moderation

I wanted to make a health bar for my game and use a slowly deteriorating cross as an icon. I didn’t think much of it since I had already uploaded 10 out of 12 states of the cross and then I got banned for 1 day for ‘discriminatory content’. For this image:


I can’t wrap my head around how this is offensive or discriminatory. I’ve read into hateful cross-like symbols but none of them resemble the cross I made. I also looked into the Geneva Convention but they only protect red crosses, crystals and crescents so this cross also doesn’t fall into that category. Before you ask me to appeal, I already did I’ve did it 2 times on the ‘Violations & Appeals’ site and then one on the support forum but all of them got denied. I’m pretty sure all of them we’re automated too since my appeals got reviewed almost instantly. I’m not particulary mad about the 1 day ban, I can wait that out but I’m just frustrated to why this even got banned in the first place, because nothing about this asset is discriminatory. And I don’t know what to try next, but I appreciate any suggestions on what I should do.

Expected behavior

This icon should’ve just got accepted and I shouldn’t have got banned for a day because of a normal white cross.

Not a bug. Appeal via the Appeals Portal, that’s what this feature is designed for.

In the post I said that I already appealed and all of them got denied. I have no more appeals left, I can’t appeal anywhere no more.

Then contact Roblox Support and appeal there. You’ll be guaranteed to have a human review your appeal and if it’s not in violation of any guidelines, they’ll restore it without issue.

If you meant this then I have already tried that. I’ve appealed 2 times on ‘Violations & Appeals’ and once on this. But it got denied like instantly not even a minute after I sent it out. And you only have one appeal for your image on this site. If I sent another one out it won’t get reviewed.

I once used the Roblox Texture Generator for a mesh and once I approved the design it came up with and it uploaded it and applied the texture I was moderated for uploading content that redirects users to off-site links.

I appealed it and it took a while for them to understand the situation.

Their automated moderation is, well, :poop:
