Problem
When recording video of players who are exploiting in the game, the names of the players do not show up in the video even though I see them on my screen. The impact of this is that other steps need to be taken to report a cheater in the game since the names do not appear in the video. With no names, the moderators cannot properly identify the players with any certainty. The game that this is happening with is Flag Wars https://www.roblox.com/games/3214114884/Flag-Wars I don’t really play other games on the platform. This may be happening with other games though. But since this is a video recording issue that is outside of the game itself, I believe that this is a Roblox issue rather than a game issue.
Also note that the chat does not show up in the video either.
