| A bottled account is compromised. The less accounts at a blackhatter's disposal the better. |

| All blocked or deleted posts are qeued for moderator review. There's already up to a 72 hour delay with report processing as it is. This will make it no easier. |

| I have a theory, if the player swears and swear then he might one day stumble upon a non-blocked word. Banning/Warning them reminds them that swearing is not nice, lets change this idea to only warn for bot blocked words? |

A warning is fine, but I've gotten banned for 1-2 days because, of a subject that got blocked.. (I didn't realize that you couldn't talk about it). |

| Then it would bog everything down. ROBLOX makes it known that offsite links lead to scams. It is NOT their problem if somebody falls for a scam AFTER THEY MAKE IT KNOWN THAT ALL OF THEM ARE SCAMS. |

By just blocking posts and removing workload off the moderators it would bog everything down? K.

I agree. |

| The bots work as applications, they browse the catalog and post comments. One person with the browsing volume of ten people will do that to the site en mass. |

And?

The current system hasn't stopped all that;

| Actually, you'll notice that if you report them they'll get banned. It's slow, but guaranteed. |

SO the end result is that the current system does nothing as the more serious users ( who are not idiots) have to report it rendering the current system of that irrelevant and useless.
Although I am just talking about the forum posts not comments. |

| The location and browsing volume are to be read together. I'm pointing out that someone exhausts their computer's processing power to run these bots. They leave the computer to do its thing, perhaps even for weeks at a time. If the accounts aren't banned, they'll just keep running the whole time. |

Yes but your fallacy is that the current system stops them from commenting for a duration of what? 60 seconds? They never get banned unless they get reported. Hence the current system is irrelevant and useless. |

"The current system allows users to say what's inappropriate as they see fit."
My problem with the current system is that I get banned for posts on the forums that get blocked for having an inappropriate subject - if it got posted I could see why but, it got blocked so it should have no effect beyond a warning telling somebody that said subject shouldn't be talked about.
It is improbable to tell all of what roblox considers inappropriate. Which is why I do not see why people get banned for it. Now if the blocked posts has swear words in it then it is obvious why but, if not and it is just a genuine topic then there shouldn't be any end consequences past what I mentioned. |

| Swear words are nothing compared to other, more sensitive subjects. All posts need to be safe for their respective audience. This isn't going to happen anyway. If you don't get ten pages in the first hour, your suggestion is doomed to fail. |

By sensitive I mean political subjects that are reasonable (not like adult only subjects) I am saying if the topic is genuine and not (like x-rated content) then there shouldn't be a ban for it.
If there is just a bunch of swearing and it is obvious what this person was doing then it is reasonable, |
