Why Are There Two Roblox Error Codes That Mean the Exact Same Thing?

As someone who has been experience-banned from a few games using Roblox’s Experience Ban API, I’m not asking to be unbanned. I’m simply looking for clarification on Roblox’s error codes.

I’m trying to understand why there are two different error codes (267 and 600) when the documentation describes them as the same thing.

Error Code 267: Banned from an Experience

Error Code 600: Banned from an Experience

The support articles have essentially the same description.

Through testing, I noticed the following behavior:

  • If I’m already in the experience when a ban is applied, I’m disconnected with Error Code 267.
  • If I attempt to rejoin the same experience afterward, I receive Error Code 600 instead.

Is this distinction intentional? If so, what is the technical difference between Error Codes 267 and 600? The current documentation appears to describe both as “Banned from an Experience,” so I’m curious why two separate error codes exist.

One additional question: the support articles state that these bans occur because the experience creator determined the user violated the Roblox Community Standards within their experience. Why is this wording used? If a player is violating the Roblox Community Standards, wouldn’t platform moderation normally be responsible for taking action on the account, while experience creators enforce their own experience rules?

i believe they are different because:

267 is when you get banned while in-game

600 is when you try to join, but you cant because you are banned

i may be wrong, who knows

Hey there. I believe (can be mistaken) this to be because Code 267 is when a player is connected to an experience and then gets banned from the game, whereas Code 600 is when a player is already banned from the experience and attempts a connection to it.

You can also see the distinction in the first couple sentences of each error.

TDLR:

  • Error 267 = Player banned whilist connected to an experience.
  • Error 600 = Player banned outside of experience, attempts for connection are terminated.
