We are a group of developers and managers who have essentially ran one of the most reputable “e-leagues” in Roblox’s sports genre for the better part of 10 years, named PRS (Professional Roblox Soccer). We function as a closed community with limited accessibility to the public, which has consequentially turned being part of our community as a considerable achievement inside the genre.
on 2025-05-12T09:38:00Z my account was terminated under the following reason:
Initially confused as to what might have caused it, I looked into the Violations & Appeals panel, just to find that a recent plugin I uploaded was removed for:
My initial appeals on the plugin itself were declined without any further explanation on what more specifically violated the terms of service; leaving me to guess what it could have been. I then contacted Roblox Support through Roblox Support, where as a EU resident invoked my rights to the Digital Services Act (DSA). As of writing this, I’m yet to receive a formal response.

on 2025-05-14T01:06:00Z two of my colleagues (moniacally & nullstrafe) were terminated as well for the following reasons:
moniacally:
nullstrafe:
Unlike my situation; when both of the aforementioned verified the Violations & Appeals panel; only to find there was no registry of any content that violated the Roblox’ Terms of Service.
I would like to point out that two additional colleagues of mine (jothez & oxIayde) seem to currently also be targeted by the moderation system itself, as multiple of their experiences (which haven’t been updated for several years in most cases) are now under review with no particular reason, as all of the aforementioned don’t have any sort of malicious content or a playerbase to begin with.

Update 1:
Additionally, our 2 bot accounts have also been now terminated (PRSRequestBot & PRS_AudioBot). This marks both the fourth and fifth account termination.
This is the ban message on PRSRequestBot:
Given the quick succession between the termination of all of the accounts associated to the three highest roles in the Roblox group’s hierarchy, and the fact that this unfortunately isn’t the first attempted sabotage we’ve suffered as a collective, we have all the reasons to believe that this is a targeted attack against our group as a whole. Frustratingly, we have been sitting here, forced to delay several projects for the sake of writing e-mails and posts regarding this situation, playing a waiting game while communication with the moderation team has just been underwhelming.
I would like to reiterate that all of us have had over 12+ years of presence in this platform, and some of us even use this platform as a source of income. With all due respect to Roblox as a platform, it is outrageous that these kinds of attacks on us are not just possible, but this difficult and bothersome to even resolve. It has now been over 72 hours since I’ve been banned, 24 hours since my colleagues have been banned. All I had was an automated response in a declined appeal, and my colleagues are yet to even receive any response from the moderation team.
At this point, it has been in our consideration whether having to endure such poor and exploitable moderation is worth our time developing future projects that had a lot of potential for revitalising one of the oldest communities in Roblox that has slowly been decaying over-time.
Finally, I would like to reiterate that by releasing this post and trying to contact Roblox’s moderation team to begin with, we are merely fighting to resume the normality that was taken from us. There will be no compensation, no accountability, no repercussions for the damage that has been done to us and our community. The very most we can get from this situation is to simply reinstate our accounts and await for the next sabotage attempt despite our past attempts to contact Roblox’s Staff team for these exact reasons in the past. If this isn’t precarious treatment of members of the platform simply using it for video-game and community creation as intended, I don’t know what is, and it’s painful that this kind of behaviour against us is so easily rewarded.
A private message is associated with this bug report
and I hope we can improve the moderation flow going forwards.
