Picture this. A system in roblox which instead of picking up certain words in the comments, would pick up certain phrases instead.

The filters could also do this
1st offense: Commenting disabled for 1 hour.
2nd offense: Commenting disabled for 5 hours.
3rd offense: Commenting disabled for 1 day.
(Any offenses under this run the risk of a ban for the user)
4th offense: Commenting disabled for 3 days.
5th offense: Commenting disabled for 1 week.
6th offense: Commenting disabled for 1 month.
7th offense: Commenting permanently disabled.

Here is a list of phrases and groups of words it could filter.

My place
Come to my place
Free Tix
Free tickets
Free R$
Free Robux
Send me trades

Also, does anyone else hate those stupid, crapily made "CLICK THIS 10 TIMES!!!!!!" ads?

They are pretty much spam too. All they do is put a challenge out to the viewer, and the viewer is easily manipulated into clicking it.

"the viewer is easily manipulated into clicking it."

It is amazing how little everyone cares about what a cesspool the commenting section has become.

If we don't care then it isn't a cesspool.


Just your opinion.

i agree that there should be taken some measures against spamming but the permanent disablement is a bit harsh, i think this idea should be a tweaked a little more and then i would support it. :I

Well, the permanent disablement is only on the 7th offense. Some people just need to learn the hard way.

maybe they should just make your comment not postable when those sentences are in there or they should assign people to review the comments (but that would probably be one off the most tedious jobs you could have... xD )

i agree if they would clean up those childish comments of all those gullible players, it would attract maybe a more mature audience to this game, something I would love to happen, but you can't just ban people because they made 7 irritating spam comments... :P

I'm saying that it keeps them from posting it if it detects the words. It would then disable the comments for one hour, and display a message saying why it was disabled. I mean, go on ANY item in the catalog. ANY item that is featured, and look at the comments.

Last time ROBLOX attempted to add a spam filter (which was different) in a place they broke the entire chat system for a whole day. I'm sure you remember.

I'm talking about commenting sections. Not in-game chat.
