Would this be allowed?

I was thinking about this idea recently and wanted to share it.
My idea is having a game which allows the player to modify data store values, (only strings) and these messages would be censored, filtered. Also there would be time limits, you could pay to have tokens, which allows you to save / get more data, and you would get them daily. Everything would be censored, not only when saving, but also when getting the message.

Is that against TOS? Could you find a problem with it?

They would be able to set any string under any key inside data store and could replace any other submitted by any other player.

Also what do you think about the idea? (Only comment if you have any info above.)

Why would u let players edit that? And that should be fine with roblox unless they add something inappropriate

There would be filtering. More of an interesting idea. Also a cash grab :sweat_smile: but yeah.

Wait what is the goal or use of the game? I mean it sounds like it’s just a notepad on Roblox.
Also TOS wise you should be fine but allowing people to edit that is risky.

It’s just a stupid idea. It would be it’s separate game lol
I do find it interesting, a notepad is technically what I wanted to do. I wonder if roblox moderates DS info?

What is the point of allowing players to edit data stores? Isn’t it the same as server-sidedly increasing the data of the player without the need of risking players being able to edit it themselves?

Anyways as everyone has said that should be fine. I just really don’t see the point of giving players more control of there data.

It’s not supposed to be a feature of a game. I know you shouldn’t let players edit data store values simply, but this would be a GAME it self.

Yes. As long nothing inappropriate is shown to the players, this within the boundaries of TOS.
