Re: [Petition] Allow Claiming of Join Request Groups

This is a petition that hopes to achieve enough support to convince Roblox to make Join Pending Groups claimable to those with BC.

I find it odd that people are not able to claim unowned groups because they are join pending, even if they are some kind of BC.

This problem was made aware to me when I had a friend with BC who wanted to have their own Samurai Clan, without making their own. I knew of one which was already made and unowned. It is called "The Horisu Clan".

The leader abandoned it and it has few members, none of them are active and its a dead group. My friend would of taken it, except it was join pending. I asked what this had to do with claiming the unowned group. He informed me that you can only claim an unowned group if you are in it. Therefore, any unowned group that you cannot get it shall remain an empty, dead, space taking group.

I find this a rather silly thing and would request that there be made some way for Join Pending groups, that are unowned, be claimable somehow.

Perhaps, it can be made so anyone with BC may claim an unowned group without having to join it and they simply auto-join by taking ownership. I will admit, I do not know if there is a good reason to make it possible for groups to sit around unclaimed forever, but I cannot imagine one either.

If anyone knows the reason why Join Pending groups cannot be taken, please put down why below.

Please Support.

No support, _unless_ ROBLOX adds a way to delete groups aswell in which case I support.

I've abandoned a couple of groups as join request only, simply because I couldn't delete them and because I didn't want someone being able to join (and take) a group similar to "Leolion's Accounts", etc.

A lot of my friends have lost their groups because some people take it, exile everyone, then make it Join Pending.

I hope that together we can convince Roblox that this is an issue that requires their attention. It may seems rather unimportant, but its a pretty big problem to some.

I support, Roblox needs a universal delete tool on groups and let people with BC claim a group, it is just simple as that if it is join-pending, dead-wasted space.

I believe if ROBLOX added a new tool that allows the owner of the group able to delete the group as long as there are no other members in the group, then yes.

If the tool was not added, I would disagree with this as maybe some previous owners of the group do not want anyone to have it - and thus leave it empty and manual acceptance.

Bumping because it made 100+ views. Will bump for every 100 from now on.

Thank you very much for your support, DrDrRoblox. I think the delete tool would be an excellent add-on as well.

jjjakey has informed me that my current idea may cause many Roblox groups to be taken as it would become easier to take groups.

Therefore, I have thought of an idea to combat this problem.

What if groups could have a p@$$=word on them? The idea is in the case a person is wrongfully b@nned they could still get their group back from an unowned state since only they know the p@$$=word.

This would also make allowing someone else the group easier, as you could leave it and only tell the new leader the p@$$=word. Therefore, only the appointed leader could take the group.

Now, for the problem of unowned join pending groups. What if the p@$$=word system was only good for a certain amount of time when unowned? This way, if a leader leaves their group, they will have time to think about if they really want to leave it. If not, they put in the p@$$=word and re-control their group. But, if they really want out they let it go.

Now, for leaders who want to leave their group, but do not want others to have it. Make a delete option for groups. The conditions being there must be no members in the group besides the owner before deletion can happen.

In this system, groups changing hands, being sold, and accidently lost are safer then how we have it now. Plus, there is the option to delete then group.

How does this sound?

No support. I had a group(Capital T), which I abandoned and made sure nobody could restart it. I don't want anyone to own it or start it up again. Further more, the group lives on under a different name.

No support, when some people retire from ROBLOX, and shut down their group, they don't WANT someone to claim it. They want it to remain a momento. Just get your friend to pay 100 ROBUX.

Pretty sure VAK no longer shuts down groups.

People who own groups they no longer want will occasionally shut it down for Vaktovia, but the Empire itself doesn't.

People that don't want their group to be reactivated should leave a message in the desc asking roblox to delete it, if this idea gets into the system.
