I personally find that when someone reports me, it's because they got their feelings hurt at my expense. However, I don't get banned, because most of the time, the person who's feelings I hurt made a failed attempt at provoking me, and ended up getting provoked themselves.
Scenario:
Person: Lol bear u so weak kid
Me: Not really..
Person: Lol wuts the matter dummy, to scared to fite me
Me: No. I just don't really feel like *fighting* anyone right now.
Person: -starts killing me anyways-
Me: Alright, fine. -kills person-
Person: WTF U STUPID EFFIN IDIOT OMG GO TO HEL
Me: I want you to realize that I'm not offended by anything you've said so far.
Person: I'm reporting u!!!
Me: Ok.
Person: -reports-
-nothing happens-
I don't think younger children realize that reporting someone doesn't work under the following conditions:
A. The person reporting another user can't have started the fight/flame war.
B. Reporting doesn't instantly ban someone.

Just wanted to see what you guys thought.

I totally agree. Unless there's actually a legit reason, don't report.

Then why bother saying "tl;dr"?
Anyways...
tl;dr
Kids report people that they provoked.
Expect that person to get reported.
Gets mad because they don't get instantly banned.

*reports people repeatedly using VERY common ways to bypass chat filter and curse/talk about inappropriate stuff* (like replacing "e" with 3, "a" with 4, etc.)
*Person doesn't get banned*



*posts on a post on the old GC/RG forum (back when they existed) that is slightly controversial (wouldn't normally be considered against the rules)*
*gets spam reported by someone who disagrees with me and gets 2 bans for the exact same post*

Agree with this post, this should be an important blog post, so kids inform themselves of how the Report Abuse works!

You keep using the word "kids" as a derogatory, are you not under 18?

I wasn't talking to you and in no way did I say using the word kids was a bad thing

I said the exact opposite, that OP was using it as some sort of insult

I say "kids" because this post is geared towards a younger audience, in the 8-10 years old bracket. I'm 14 years old, well under 18. I would refer to a more mature audience as Veterans.

Ok, but what if they're reporting for legit reasons. I've seen many people hacking and scamming and nothings done about them. I report them myself and nothing happens.

I'm just trying to say as the vast majority of players on roblox are children. it seems fairly unnecessary to say kids, it's already implied

Alright, I'm not really offended or anything. And I wasn't using "kid" as an insult.
Younger ROBLOXIANS?

Well im sorry about that, I assumed that you would of gotten the implication so I interpreted it as a derogatory

I mean, you have to admit, despite what the mods say, volume of report seems to be a major factor.

For example:
When people throw insults at me in-game and say all sorts of things that are most definitely against the rules, but I am the only one who reports them, they never seem to get banned (not in a timely manner, at least).
But one time, when I was raiding with Elite Wing (back in the day...) one of the enemies was insulting me in a way akin to the many other cases I see (like cursing and such). I used team chat to tell my fellow group members to report the guy, and they did...within 2 minutes he was kicked and his profile displayed the old "The content you are trying to view does not exist" ban indicator.

@stealthy
I've never had that happen. I reported a guy on the game "Battlefield" along with my friends, and he definitely didn't get banned. I can't remember his username, it was last year that I was playing the game with him. I do remember him saying he was in a gang and that he would hack my computer, find me and my friends, and kill us.

On Work at A Pizza Place someone I wont name, PM me if you really care that much and want to know was spazzing out because she lost her manager because of her "sister" then started yelling at me -the then manager- swore at me, said they wanna kill me etc, so I reported them. I told her and:

Her: I REPORT YOU
Me: For what? I didnt break any rules
Her: Yes.... YOU SAID I COULD BE MANAGER YOU PROMISE
Me: Ummm, I never said that, you did, even so thats not against the rules
Her: I REPORT YOU WONT BE ON ROBLOX TOMMOROW
OtherPlayer: He didnt beak anyrules
Me: Yeah, I didnt.
OtherPlayer2: Your the one breaking rules, etc
Me: Its just a game dude
Her: TO YOU ITS A GAME TO ME ITS NOT
Her: (some weird language)

It went on like that for about 30 minuets, I shoulda held a vote to ban her on that game (since managers in that game can) since everyone had enough of her. I then brought a random player that looked like they knew what they were doing in and made them manager, then the girl starts spazzing again. I then lost connection to the game.

Your right, players go around reporting people for no reason. I had a reason to report her and if you were there you probably would agree. I know nothings going to happen to me, but for her I dont know.
