over the years i noticed that spam is becoming increasingly more frequent.
And this is how often i noticed.

2009: 15% of comments were spam
2010: 28% of comments were spam
2011:45% of comments were spam
2012:70% of comments were spam
and now?:85% of comments are spam

Clearly nothing(effective) is being done to solve this issue, so its justs getting worse and worse intill it is starting to get out of hand.
Maybe roblox should hold back adding features a bit and start working on a very strong spam preventing filter for comments.

Well, those statistics are incorrect.
And roblox has been trying to combat spam (3600 second comment time, Email Verification) but I do agree that it is still a problem.

Roblox is working crappily at combating the spam legionaries.

Are those stats guessed or from a valid source? Primary or Secondary?

You totally made up those stats. Just saying.

But yes, the spam is getting worse, but ROBLOX is trying. More spam comes with more people and with more people joining by the second, spam will always be getting worse no matter what. Without some MASSIVE thing that gives like an IP Ban to somebody who spams even once, it's impossible to stop. People will just use alts they don't care about.

You people should stop for a while and trust him. I've been on Roblox since 2009 (2007 if you count me as a guest), and I can safely admit that the statistics are (unfortunately) 99% accurate.
But it's not because there's simply more spammers, it's because a bigger % of Roblox right now is little kids that believe in those free robux and tickets scam copy-pasta comments.
Notice how the form of the most popular spams hasn't changed since 2010. The best thing we could do at this point, is go back in time and delete the account of the person who started it all. So yeah, there's no solution.
