The Blacklist Filter is aimed at users who set their age as 13+. an age which is thought of as more acceptable to swear than any lower. Even on the Blacklist Filter, if you say something that's "bad", even if you spelled a word wrong, like "shirt", you get a ban.

Now I wouldn't mind if the word was censored (which it is anyway) and forgotten about but the whole idea of a ban from that (and to say a 3 day ban in most cases) is quite absurd. Hardly any 13+ MMOs do the same. I can't think of any anyway.

It's like the ROBLOX staff are over-protective parents, spreading their protection over their website and game.




TL;DR? Users can't see the word, it's censored so why the get banned? ROBLOX is one of the only MMOs with a high moderation.

I don't think people should get banned, maybe they should censor it in-game. In all honesty I'm not sure if my opinion matters considering I don't see any problem with swearing, at the end of the day, its a word, nothing more. Its only bad because society makes it that way.

Most MMO's are aimed at users over 15 or 16.
And RBOLOX does need to take more action about how the chat system does work I will agree on that point but Swearing takes it to far.

All I will say is that its the person fault

Personally all the times I got banned it was my own fault I can't agree much

From title changers I agree its my fault for not looking at the subject
and from swearing I did got banned before like that I knew its the rules not to say it but I get banned for it

Its all my fault I got banned

Did you even read the ROBLOX rules?

"Swearing of any kind is not tolerated."

No, most MMOs are not aimed at 15-16. At least their minimum age isn't

WoW - Age 12+ Allows swearing.
Runescape - 13+ Allows swearing.
LoL - 13+ Allows swearing.
(+ much more but I have forgotten most names, those three are the ones that first came to mind)

By allows swearing I mean you don't get banned for it, it's just censored.

It's a word, it's a group of pixels on your screen making up shapes known as letters in an order.

It's a sound, a vibration that came from your voice box and out of you mouth, shaped by your tongue.

Only society, like imbetter said, makes it bad.

Also, yes I did read the rules which is why I know what I'm talking about when I protest,

Also, also, kids (under 13) are put on the Whitelist Filter. If anyone should be banned for saying words like that, only them. If they lie about their age, their fault. They suffer for that.

If it's censored, nobody sees it anyway. I'm suggesting this because I have often spelled words wrong which made them look bad and only just gotten away with it.


"It's a kid's game" is not an acceptable argument.

You should not have to get a ban from it.

Iciness, that's not the point.
You go make a couple of thousand shirts and call them all different names like "Red Shirt", "Blue Shirt", it's only a matter of time before you spell that word wrong and get banned.

It gets censored anyway so it's like going to my parents and saying "Bleep". They aren't gonna care because they never knew that "Bleep" meant. That's the purpose of the censor.

It's not an acceptable argument. I will explain again so I can get it in your skull.

Lets presume everyone is honest as they should be. Nobody has lied about their age.
-Any user under 13 is a "kid" as you say, ok? They are put on the Whitelist Filter. They will be banned for swearing, they will not see it as it is censored and they will never know a user has said the word.
-Any user OVER 13 is not a "kid" as you say, ok? They are put on the Blacklist Filter. This still doesn't allow them to see the word as it is censored but they do not get a ban for saying it.

A user can accidentally say it, word won't be seen, user won't be banned. Who loses?

Now please, read ALL OF THAT THOROUGHLY before making an argument.

Maybe they just don't want words spelt wrong meaning swearing words.
If they let it get out of control what do you think raging O'ders would say hmm?
