Despite the wonderful idea of having a brand new system where you have to be verified to comment, spam still remains to flood up every single popular item.
Even "Bro" is now a seemingly popular item, and 99% of the comments on the first 30 pages (that's true, check it.) is nothing but spam and scams to the same link!
New users keep joining in on the spam. It's an endless warfare of the comment sections.
As long as they're made by ROBLOX, there's going to be people looking at the item and viewing the comments, and if there's people viewing the comments, there's going to be people thinking they can spam up the comments in hopes of scamming a user.
Also when they're not using spam to scam, they're adveritsing their games through comments! Instead of spending 150-1000 tickets on a legitimate advertisement, they're deciding to spam all over the comment sections for their games. That means that the well created advertisement system where users can have their own ad on the website the size of a real life advertisement on a website is being overthrown by the free way which happens to be spamming.
Please, ROBLOX, remove the comment sections on popular items. A lot less users could spam, a lot less users could get a virus on their computer, it'd be much better.
Face it, it's EXTREMELY rare to find a user who's comment is about the item. "i like it" "This matches great with (another item)" and even the semi-annoying "lower the price" are the common comments I was so used to. But when nobody comments about the item anymore, the comment walls have no value.

@Tetris
"because people wanna see the comments too" That's why users spam links containing viruses. People want to see comments so they see them and use the links they see.
That's why the scams are in BULK and become SPAM. |

another bump... I might have to keep bumping and look at all the happy faces and positive replies this gets until ROBLOX closes the comments on popular items. |

Sadly the numbers that don't spam and scam wouldn't be able to comment either.
The numbers of scammers and spammers are so high that they literally engulfed the comments of ROBLOX. Therefore, I'm sure the nonspammers/scammers will know why comments get disabled though if they do. |

Located small amount of spam on "Equinox" Hat
Sadly if the comments stay on items like that, once spam is gone on popular front pagers, it migrates tries to migrate where it can.
Hopefully if comments get disabled on popular items, and Equinox eventually gets loaded with spam, we can just make a thread on S&I titled "Close comments on Equinox!" |

http://www.roblox.com/Pineapple-Head-item?id=87262199
The last spam here was 2 months ago. Compare this to the spam of Front Catalog Page items. I think Pineapple head deserves to keep comments. I can't say the same for the ones you see when you first go to the catalog. |

Support. Comments are supposed to be for complimenting the item or hating it or something related to the item, not for spam. If people can't use the system correctly, then it should be removed. It would get rid of a lot of spam (but, unfortunately, not all of it).

@Golden, thank you. Hopefully if I get enough support, ROBLOX will do this.
If this happens, there'll be a lot less ROBLOXians getting computer viruses. |

| Why do that, when you can just moderate comments better? |

There's only about 60 admins. Half of them aren't moderators.
If they could just moderate comments better, then the spam would be gone.
I've spent LITERALLY over an hour reporting spam and scams ***mostly Scams that WERE spammed*** on just ONE ITEM.
This'd make it easier on the admins and give less people viruses. (Most spammed scams have viruses.) |

@Skelly, I know. I think that what comments were MEANT for is a beautiful thing, getting to give feedback, a user's opinion, sounds great.
But the comment system was exploited into being a loophole for instant scams. |
