What exactly is wrong with the moderation system these days?
Well, you can get banned for just about anything.
For example
One of my friends just got banned for "posting too many times in a thread"
and I got banned for just calling somebody a "noob"
As the old rule says, "whatever the mod says, goes".

But from the users perspective, this is wrong.
We have no clear idea of the mods ideals.
What I am thinking, is having a universal list of rules, that the mods HAVE to follow.
For example,
In RT, where MBD and gonordx moderate;
We are in contast fear of the two, because gordox's ideals fluctuate more than a bi-polar squrial with ADD.

So, a list of what to do, and what to actually do, would be really nice.

A easy alternative is enforcing the current rules on the mod's banning ways, but I don't see that ever happening.
So, guys
Please listen this time
Fix the moderation system

Roblox overdoes everything. If they see someone with awesome stuff, Roblox bans them.
One time, I was deleted for this reason.
"Your account has been terminated.
Reason: This account has expired"
?????
Since when can accounts expire?!

All moderation is automated with the exception of:
Inappropriate places (not 100% sure about this one though)
Stuff that pertains to real-life (such as threats)

I have a HUGE moderation history, when I was a good egg since I joined.

Why penalize and punish me worse than they do ACTUAL offenders when I have always stuck by the ROBLOX rules?!

Anything can go under "inapproprite", we have to define those lines.

Exactly, Roblox also follows a policy called, "Auto-deletion"
They delete anyone who's been reported, like, a million times by cyber bullies. The victim has done nothing wrong, but BOOM! The victim is deleted. That's just wrong, Roblox!
There are stupid and silly, "Rules" such as:

1. Roblox will delete an account when it has expired.
?????
2. Roblox reserves the right to delete an account at free will.
?????


I disagree with those rules!
Roblox has NO right to delete an account when they did nothing wrong.

Here's something messed up.

I play a great game and wonder if it will have VIP. I make a comment:

> "I really like the game! Will VIP be added?"

My account is disabled for twenty four hours for breaking the rules of personal information.




SERIOUSLY?

I like ROBLOX. I make a free website using "Wix" which is a site where users can chat about what they like about ROBLOX and can only use their ROBLOX username.

> I post it as a comment.

My account is disabled for fourteen days for "scamming ROBLOXians"

There's a fine line.
The line's between true banning to false banning to majority-deletions.
Admins have went over the last line. By a lot.

@Bridge, so there's a forum regarding a serious topic that is a crisis for ROBLOX, and you say everyone is whining. Then you have the nerve to tell us to support your post, and apparently your post is about something that isn't as powerful as the constantly abused mod system.

I got banned for a week for saying "poop."
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!

You kids need to settle down

Unless you can come up with a more efficient way of micromanaging a multimillion-member-MMO (and no, having the mods conjure "clearer ideals" isn't the way to do it, most moderation is automated) then please restrain yourselves from jumping to conclusions about the moderators

The simple fact of the matter is that there are a whole lot of people who play this game, and the staff can often not take any chances.

The current moderation system is inefficient but it's better than nothing, and it isn't about to improve anytime soon, what with hundreds of new people joining every day.

Recruit, 1) We're not kids, forums are 13+ >_>

2) What he means by moderation system is by stopping the false bans. Nearly all who go to this site don't decide to come back so the hundreds joining per day isn't actually as absurd as it sounds.

3) What he meant doesn't invole Bots. He's saying the mods should make their bans for legitimate reasons. We already know mods aren't bots, that's why they have a team of moderators.

The stupid thing is, the admins don't ban on the forum, whoever gets reported gets a 1 day ban automatically.

Add the s to the swag, remove the s and my tail will wag!

@Color

1. First of all, you don't even know that. You can't judge people's age by how they type. Secondly, so you define an adult as being over the age of 13? Odd, considering anything that you want to do legally that is of an adult nature requires you to be at least the age of 16 in most cases.

Now I will explain to you how the moderation system works. Thousands of reports are filed every day. It truly is not possible for humans to go through and read all of them, so much of it is automated. This method is used on the forums as well. Often, weird bans come from bots. And there simply isn't much you can do about that.

As for the rather minor human moderation, well, their ideals can be read about in the rules of Roblox.

As long as you don't break the rules, you have a low chance of getting banned. A random, unreasonable ban might happen every once in awhile - just deal with it. You can use alts. And, those kinds of bans have actually never happened to me. Every single time I was banned or warned I knew perfectly why.
