Roblox should introduce tutorials to devforum members when they get the reply and topic button with enough reading time

I was being sarcastic, there is no need for a tutorial on top of the text you have to delete that outlines the guidelines for the topic

Also, no one who is going to delete the text when making a topic without reading it is going to sit through a tutorial and read the whole thing.

If someone is going to ignore all of that text, they’re going to ignore the whole tutorial as well

This isn’t gonna force them to read the rules. If they weren’t gonna read the rules to begin with then this will only make them simply wait until it lets them skip past that tutorial. It will gain no benefit to users and only negatively impact people who do follow the rules.

Hey! I’ve just received DevForum access a few days ago and it actually gave me a tutorial by @discobot. Upon completion of the tutorial, it’d given me a “Certified” role.

I think when users sign up to for the dev forum they should force them to do a tutorial because as said here:

This is a common issue, and it’s mainly to newer people on the devforum the best you can do is redirect them and flag the post for being off topic if its not used in the right category.

I know they have the discobot tutorial but you don’t have to do it I believe the forum tutorial should be mandatory.

Yeah, it usually happens to newer people rather than both newer and older users.
I SWEAR TO GOD ROBLOX HAS TO INTRODUCE THE TUTORIALS NOW. Creator Hub banner overlapping sidebar menus while on desktop Mobile View - Forum Help / Forum Bugs - Developer Forum | Roblox
Edit: The topic OP was actually on the forum so yeah don’t report this.

Ok I get your stance, but I need to know, how do you think this is going to help anymore than the tutorial you are given when you start making a topic that the same people actively choose to ignore.

Cause honestly there are no benefits of creating this, they’re just gonna ignore it, or forget it, and it would just be a waste of the engineers time when they could be working on something else.

Yeah, I think it did. Pretty sure it talked about most of the features on the DevForum.

I read on another post that the majority of people on the devforum are under 18, so this can lead to posts that sre flagged often, so i think either the requirements of being able to post topics should be higher or that the tutorial should be mandatory.

The tutorial should just be mandatory instead of stricter requirements.

Where? If somebody else said it who isn’t staff it’s probably not true.

“wastes our time”
Listen here, the DevForum has it’s own rules, learn to respect them, or don’t use it at all. Simple. The rules are here for a reason, to make sure that everything stays in order, and that everything remains under control. If you are to receive moderation based on something you’ve done supposedly to violate DevForum guidelines, you should take notice to the report the moderator has given, instead of downright ignoring the feedback. If you believe a moderation action to have been incorrect/unfairly given, you should open up a ticket to ask for more information in regards to said actions given, and that you want to make sure your mistakes are fixed. Like it or not, as we are under Roblox’s DevForum, however they choose to moderate it, they can do as they wish…

There really isn’t anything more to it, just read the rules.

Well I did realize that these type of topics are one of the points of the moderator job and make moderators work to correct it lol. But the rules take long to fully read though. Edit: I guess its up to Roblox however they want the devforum to be.

Yes they do, but you must do it regardless, to avoid moderation. You have to always abide by the services you’re using and their rules, whether you like it or not.
