So if all of us can talk...why can't guests? I've always wondered about this. Suggestion: Let EVERYONE talk, including Guests. It seems unfair that Guests aren't able to communicate like everyone else. In some games communication is essential and people often get frustrated at Guests for not doing something right. But if they were able to use the chat menu and see what everyone else saw they could actually play with them. If I was a Guest and I couldn't talk or see what everyone else was saying I would be frustrated...wouldn't you? So consider letting Guests chat along with all of us. (ALSO: If you don't like my idea I don't care if you say stuff, just don't be rude about it :/)

BTW: I know Guests could just make an account. I don't know if this is accurate but weren't Guests allowed to talk using the phrases ROBLOX set up. It was like a little speech bubble on the top left. Obviously you won't know what I'm talking about if you just joined. ;)

"Guests" are usually intended for people who are new to the game. They weren't supposed to be treated as actual members of ROBLOX, but most of the community started being pessimistic and oversensitive of how terrible they are in games.

My point is, Guests aren't privileged to have this feature if they aren't even real accounts on ROBLOX. I know it sounds mean, but think about it. They can't get reported, and they'll hear EVERYTHING this community puts in speech. Seriously, there hasn't been one day where people haven't been swearing off someone else for irrelevant or callous reasons.

No support.

I think that the game owner should decide this for their personal game.

@KeyUmi - I will have to agree with your idea. I had a guest chat GUI in my game because I deemed it rational and wanted to give it a shot for a scripting challenge (this was awhile back), and guests repeatedly spammed inappropriate content.

The issue is that a guest can't be terminated/deleted, since it has no account. And I don't think ROBLOX can exactly IP Ban a guest since there might not actually be a recorded IP of a player.

So if a Guest breaks a ToS rule/law, then ROBLOX can't really do anything about it.

I decided to see what being a guest was like. I noticed they cant talk or see chat. This is a problem. A guest may need help but nobody could explain it. They couldn't even ask. Guests used to be able to say selected words or phrases, but Roblox's dumb update removed it. I for one CARE about these guests. They may not realize some things they do are bad, since they cant hear anybody's chat or say thinsg for themselves. They cant even speak out for themselves. I ask, are guests really that bad? No. They just need help

If guest can talk, guests can threatening to them, or could be annoying. This is why ROBLOX made guests (including noobs) can't talk (since 2012).

If we want to make ROBLOX safe, it needs to stop guest from chatting strangers.

"Guests used to be able to say selected words or phrases, but Roblox's dumb update removed it. I for one CARE about these guests."

Guest can spam with selection words.

Even if some guests spam, what about the others? Don't you think it's slightly unfair that innocent guests can't talk or even use selected phrases. I think the builder of the game should decide whether guests can talk or not on their game. Some people are just trolls and others could be a little kid just playing for fun. The players on the server should be able to vote to kick a guest or any player off if they think they deserve it.

I think that there shouldn't be any guests at all. It takes like 2 seconds to make an account.

Some guests cant make an account for reasons or maybe want to test the game. Further more the spamming could be fixed with a timer, but knowing Roblox they'll probably mess up a timer. The guests should atleast be able to see our chat. They are basically blind. They don't know we don't like what they do. I care! Roblox needs to fix this. NOW

Neutral.

If guests could speak and see if others are saying, they could see what the community is like before finding out the hard way.

But if they could speak, they could use it to bully other users and receive no punishment, not that people get banned for bullying regardless.

No, because then the guest can spam the chat, or say inappropriate things without getting reported.

I think guests should be removed completely. I mean, why have guest accounts when it's free to make an account!?

I agree that it's frustrating that you can't communicate with a Guest at all, but you know if they could chat, they would just scream out profanity without anybody to stop them.
