I have to stress endlessly over saving characters, and sometimes waiting an hour to finish a comment. 200 characters is often WAY too little, and sometimes you have something to add/reply to another comment, and waiting an hour is ridiculous. 30 minutes would be more reasonable. It won't cause a storm of spam, and it's not a dramatic change, but it would be massively appreciated. Thank you for reading.

No support.

The comment section is meant to be a place for quick and sharp way of putting across your opinion or reaction to the game. It's not there for you to write an essay about the game on, or to have a conversation that spans several comment pages. If you need to write more than 200 characters, for something that's meant to be quick, you're doing it wrong.

If you wish to hold a conversation with someone use the PM system ROBLOX gives you access to, rather that having it in the confines of the comment section.

Forget this, the entire comments section needs a revamp. People spam there like crazy with no reprecussions, and they keep posting the same bullcrap even though it would be easy to just blacklist a certain combination of words. With this, getting rid of things like "Copy/Paste this in 5 comments for 999999 tix/bux then press f5 and look at your money" could easily be done. You could say that people could just put in extra spaces, but if a script can ignore extra spaces, then the filter can ignore extra spaces, characters typed over and over, and so on. Im pretty sure that if people took the time to post an actual comment, it would never match something on the list, especially with people using or not using grammer and/or shortcuts like using 4 instead of four and more. Next, put more punishment for spam, and delete all existing comments. I'm pretty sure that all the good ones are buried in trash anyway.

@grantox, most accurate, brilliant, immensely legitimate--you have just won everything there was ever to be won about.

(Argh, I can't help it, GRAMMAR IS SPELLED WITH TWO A'S. WHENEVER PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT GRAMMAR OR BEING ASKED TO USE GRAMMAR, ETC, THEY SPELL IT WRONG(ironically usually when they are ACTUALLY complaining about/defending spelling).)
Uh, no deletion, just things that are OBVIOUSLY spam should be sent by a program to admins who can quickly delete large amounts of them with one click or something after making sure there is nothing legitimate. Anyways, 300 more characters and making the wait time less astronomical will not influence spammers, they are too busy jumping game to game to wait 30 minutes unless they would probably wait an hour anyway. Also, you should be able to use some spaces/new lines in case you are making a list or something. Example:

Wow, this game is great, it could use 3 things.

1. A new bla bla bla.
2. A fixed whatever.
3. Getting rid of the gibberish bla bla?

(Horrid example, but it gets the point across.)

The character limit would be the only thing that helps much, if you can't put your comment into 500 characters, then you are typing something more than a comment. Changing it from 1 hour to 30 minutes wouldn't affect much of anything, especially since you can now type more than twice of what you originally could. Support for a higher character limit, I couldn't care less about the time between comments.

Uh, yeah, but the time limit is ludicrous, it would be nice to lower.

30 minutes is still ludicrous. But agian, I really don't care, so if others want the 30 minute time so be it. I just want the longer character limit.

Yeah, the whole idea is to make it a bit less restrictive, cutting it in half to a time that will still deter spammers is nice, there is no reason for it to be an HOUR.

they should allow a comment every 10 minutes and allow more characters but actually put in the effort of designing a filter(which is incredibly simple and easy to do) like grantox said.

After roblox messed up posting a comment, it told me to "wait a while" before trying more. Another hour for me, and I still need 5 more of those comments to explain why this years egg hunt is a new low standard.

And ANOTHER error occurred, probably roblox censoring my hatred of their awful hunt, despite a ridiculous amount of spam and inappropriate content in the comments.

Maybe not, 60 secs can be used for spam easily. 10 minimum if you ask me, but 30 is more than enough of a nice change. Just crack down on spam reports. If someone gets busted for spam, they won't do it anymore.
