This was in the blog post
----------------------------------
sidekick601: How do you guys do it? How do you moderate every single image on ROBLOX? It’s a question I’ve been holding for so long. I mean, there are millions of players on ROBLOX. Is it a bot?

A human looks at each one before it goes live on the site. If you could write an image-moderating bot that was at least as good as our human moderators, we would like to buy it from you, and so would many other companies.
----------------------------------

Is it even POSSIBLE to check an image to see if it has innapropriate things? I know finding text in a image is pretty easy, but is it even possible to try and find something in a image that can change so much?

Google did it for both their image search and safesearch. Not sure how though. It's probably on a blog somewhere.

no bots involved

it's all human eye.

but yes it seems like it is possible, if you run an image through google image search and all you get is a bunch of you know what websites containing the image (unless you took your own pictures... nevermind) then block it.

It's possible. Just really really hard. It involves the use of bebop protocols, and you might get a lot of false positives or true negatives, or false negatives even.

If Google can't make something 99.9% reliable to check images, nobody can. Google have a huge amount of money (from selling user data and ads) and they spend quite a bit on their search engine. Nobody can moderate every image on the internet, so they make a bot, and go to extreme length to make it good.

It's possible to filter *many* things, but not all.
For instance, the not very enforced but still existent ban on realistic weaponry. We are very far from accurate abstract object recognition.

I remember reading the rules a few years ago and didn't it say you can't upload real pictures containing human beings or violent pictures?

Why are famous people allowed to be uploaded, but a picture of me not allowed to be uploaded?
If I was famous, would I be allowed to post pictures of myself?
