The hackers on Roblox never really seem to give it a rest (especially since the game is so darn easy to hack in the first place). I've gone to several places, only to find them wiped completely of everyone and everything (especially Robloxian High School).
The message that appears onscreen often says that viewer has been banned, and that they should contact Roblox post here in the forums. Other times, it says something completely random ("Diaper changing station"?).
The hacker has taken his toll on Roblox. You've seen what it's done to places. And worst of all, it could be any one of us. It could be you. It could be me. It could even be a moderator for all we know. The possibilities are endless. The hackers could be anywhere.
TL;DR Roblox is being hacked. The hacker could be anyone. Places are vanishing. Random messages appear onscreen. Much more. |

They broke the rules.
And for the bricks, it happens, its lag. |

"It could be you. It could be me."
No; rather, it's KidBoT and his band of merry noobs.
Yes, hackers *cough*Exploiters!*cough* are getting WAAAY too common. Seriously, I cna think of half a dozen people |

@Stephen12 I don't really care. I just figured I'd let people know.
@Underworld No, it wasn't lag. I know lag when I see it; bricks vanish, but they're still there. I've seen entire places disappear. There have been eyewitnesses. I just want to know if anyone else experienced this. |

@Catmando Of course it's exploiting. Everyone always refers to it as "hacking" for some reason. I felt I ought to use a widely-recognized term for such events :P |

| Xiao, I've had exactly that happen before (that is, disappearing bricks). My guess is that when the exploiters open tools, and therefore explorer, they cna just enter Workspace and randomly delete bricks to cause mayhem, or select a whole bunch at once and POOF! gone. |

| They're called exploiters. And just ignore them and report them to the MrDoombringer if you know they reall are. With great knowledge there is great responsibility. :o |

| Precisely, Catmando. Roblox makes it way too easy to do things like that. |

@waterkid
DAHHAHAHAHA. Good one. Like anyone on Roblox will listen to any of this. And I know it's exploiting. Everyone always says "hacking" for some reason. |

| None of you know the story behind Kidbot. He's xScenex, but none of you know who he really is. |

| No but seriously. The only good way to stop the exploiters is by ignoring them. They have a tendency to exploit for attention. |

| Ignorance may not be the answer. Some of the exploiters may actually be encouraged by the lack of people trying to stop them and continue to mess with the game. The only way to solve this is to buff up Roblox's security so that things like this can't happen. But the developers are too focused on other things to notice any of this. |

| That also seems to be a moderately popular location for exploitation. Witnesses have claimed that things kept vanishing, and there was nothing but a couple pieces left. |
