This is in order to keep a kid-friendly image that ROBLOX NEEDS to have.

-You cannot name or tell how to access any sites not allowed for in the Official Rules (it states no links).
This means:
*putting spaces in the URL
*using words instead of a URL (www dot roblox dot com)
*saying .com, .net, etc on the end of a site's name
*telling people something like "Google this and it'll be the first result"

-"Necroposting" (posting on old threads) is not allowed.
The basic guideline is that a thread is dead after a month. However, if you manage to bring back actual discussion, it's okay.

-Page stretching is against the rules.

-Only English is allowed on the games and forums.
You may no longer use any of another language even if translation is immediately provided. The mods don't have time to translate everything they find, especially as internet translators aren't exactly reliable.

-Any discussions about harm to a person or themself is against the rules and considered an adult topic.

-Discussion about a mod-related action is not allowed.
Meaning the mods can't tell you on the forums why a thread was deleted or someone was banned/suspended. You can email about your own threads, but that's it.

-"L2D!" threads are considered spam/karma threads.

-You can't discuss Hetalia on the forums.
Basically the whole thing is stereotypes, so it should be banned.

-Any stuff based on R-rated material are not allowed, even if they are completely appropriate.
Mods' new guidelines are basically that if it's not in a Disney movie, it's not allowed here.

-Talking about a Zombie Apocalypse is against the rules. Also zombies in general are not allowed.
Zombies are pretty gross and scare a lot of people, and in late 2012 that was basically all people talked about. Also, please stop complaining to me about it.

-Discussion of firearms is not allowed, even if it stays away from religion, politics, and adult topics.

-Hospitals are not allowed as they *may* contain adult topics.

-Images may not include watermarks from other sites, or watermarks which contain anything other than your username.

-No over-the-top blood.

-GUIs may not contain flashing colors.

-Art ownership: You may not post or upload something from another site even if you give credit or have permission. Credit only counts if it was given on the forums themselves.

-Do not post links that will lead to a screamer.

-Sharing accounts is not permitted.
For multiple reasons. It could be used to bypass a ban, or someone could claim an instance of rulebreaking was by another person on the account and therefore the account shouldn't be suspended so they could still use it.

-Age no longer allowed to be shared. It now falls under the "no personal information" rule.
Birthdays (month and day only) are fine, though.

-Mini-mods (aka "junior mods") are not allowed on the Forums.
It's okay to tell someone they're breaking a rule if you see it, but don't make it a habit; if it doesn't seem like a genuine mistake, just report and move on.

-No "feeding the trolls" (talking about trolls) or discussing banned members in general.
This includes trolls who have long since gone.

-Do not report a thread more than once.
Even if it's been several days. Trust me on this one.

-Orientations (as in people not initiations) are considered an adult topic and will not be tolerated.
Applies to gender and to attraction (or lack of either) in all instances (rp, groups, discussion) that are anything other than a straight couple or stating "male" or "female."

-No photos of people.
Things like a hand holding a pet are sometimes acceptable; it's not completely consistent. However, it is consistent that no picture showing a face, silhouette, etc. is ever allowed.

-Thread/game/wargroup advertising threads are not allowed.
Except on Game Marketing for games

-Joke Clans are not allowed.

-You may not discuss Skype or similar things.

-Sedation and seduction is not allowed.

-Attack on Titan is considered adult.
Has an MA15+ rating

-It is okay for a someone to kill another, as long as it is not graphic/gory.

-You may not discuss Five Nites at Freddy's.

-Weapons in art in and of themselves are not forbidden, but contextually they may not be allowed.
Explanation: "It might be that a message or thread is pulled due to the text, not the weapon. It could be that holding a knife is okay, but the knife stabbed into someone's chest is going to be pulled. A gun being held at the side is not the same as a gun pointed at someone'e head." I also note that this is a subjective area of moderating, as there is no cut-and-dry way to say what crosses the line, but it should be relatively clear what is and is not acceptable.

People will bypass it no matter what- unenforable

-"Necroposting" (posting on old threads) is not allowed.
The basic guideline is that a thread is dead after a month. However, if you manage to bring back actual discussion, it's okay.

It's not that much of an issue

-Page stretching is against the rules.

Sure, it gets annoying every once in a while

-Only English is allowed on the games and forums.
You may no longer use any of another language even if translation is immediately provided. The mods don't have time to translate everything they find, especially as internet translators aren't exactly reliable.

No.

-Any discussions about harm to a person or themself is against the rules and considered an adult topic.

Harm to a person can be taken as a joke, or be considered a PA.
Self- Harm should be considered an adult topic, but I really don't see much of that around here

-Discussion about a mod-related action is not allowed.
Meaning the mods can't tell you on the forums why a thread was deleted or someone was banned/suspended. You can email about your own threads, but that's it.

That's already a rule, you will likely be banned again or will just be ignored

-"L2D!" threads are considered spam/karma threads.

Yep.

-You can't discuss Hetalia on the forums.
Basically the whole thing is stereotypes, so it should be banned.

Just because the entire thing is stereotypes does not mean it should be banned

-Any stuff based on R-rated material are not allowed, even if they are completely appropriate.
Mods' new guidelines are basically that if it's not in a Disney movie, it's not allowed here.

No. If its made so it's appropriate for children, it should be okay

-Talking about a Zombie Apocalypse is against the rules. Also zombies in general are not allowed.
Zombies are pretty gross and scare a lot of people, and in late 2012 that was basically all people talked about. Also, please stop complaining to me about it.

Lol zombies are a joke. If you are legitimately scared by it you gotta grow up a little

-Discussion of firearms is not allowed, even if it stays away from religion, politics, and adult topics.

No. Weapons are cool.

-Hospitals are not allowed as they *may* contain adult topics.

What adult topics? Most games on ROBLOX don't include graphic and realistic open heart surgeries going on and stuff

-Images may not include watermarks from other sites, or watermarks which contain anything other than your username.

No

-No over-the-top blood.

When you go over the top it makes it seem like a joke. So no

-GUIs may not contain flashing colors.

While epilepsy is a real issue, they should always understand that there are a lot of things that can happen in a game or computer screen that can create a seizure.

-Art ownership: You may not post or upload something from another site even if you give credit or have permission. Credit only counts if it was given on the forums themselves.

No.

-Do not post links that will lead to a screamer.

Eh, sure, but you should be suspicious of all links you click on on the internet

-Sharing accounts is not permitted.
For multiple reasons. It could be used to bypass a ban, or someone could claim an instance of rulebreaking was by another person on the account and therefore the account shouldn't be suspended so they could still use it.

1. They don't care who on the account did an action, the account will still be banned either way
2. There is no way to enforce this

-Age no longer allowed to be shared. It now falls under the "no personal information" rule.
Birthdays (month and day only) are fine, though.

There really isn't much wrong with showing age, but I can see where it becomes an issue.

-Mini-mods (aka "junior mods") are not allowed on the Forums.
It's okay to tell someone they're breaking a rule if you see it, but don't make it a habit; if it doesn't seem like a genuine mistake, just report and move on.

Yep

-No "feeding the trolls" (talking about trolls) or discussing banned members in general.
This includes trolls who have long since gone.

Eh...

-Do not report a thread more than once.
Even if it's been several days. Trust me on this one.

Yeah

-Orientations (as in people not initiations) are considered an adult topic and will not be tolerated.
Applies to gender and to attraction (or lack of either) in all instances (rp, groups, discussion) that are anything other than a straight couple or stating "male" or "female."

Here we go, someone who thinks like me.
Tolerance and acceptance are cool and all, but it should be kept out of the eyes of children because they don't know anything yet, they need to spend time learning about the world first before finding out who they are

-No photos of people.
Things like a hand holding a pet are sometimes acceptable; it's not completely consistent. However, it is consistent that no picture showing a face, silhouette, etc. is ever allowed.

Yeah I can see that

-Thread/game/wargroup advertising threads are not allowed.
Except on Game Marketing for games

Yep.

-Joke Clans are not allowed.

No

-You may not discuss Skype or similar things.

Why not?

-Sedation and seduction is not allowed.

HOW DO YOU DELIVER SEDATIVES ACROSS THE INTERNET

-Attack on Titan is considered adult.
Has an MA15+ rating

15 isn't adult, hun

-It is okay for a someone to kill another, as long as it is not graphic/gory.

It shouldn't matter. It's a game. Cant do much with gore if you just have bricks

-You may not discuss Five Nites at Freddy's.

YES

-Weapons in art in and of themselves are not forbidden, but contextually they may not be allowed.
Explanation: "It might be that a message or thread is pulled due to the text, not the weapon. It could be that holding a knife is okay, but the knife stabbed into someone's chest is going to be pulled. A gun being held at the side is not the same as a gun pointed at someone'e head." I also note that this is a subjective area of moderating, as there is no cut-and-dry way to say what crosses the line, but it should be relatively clear what is and is not acceptable.

I can see the issue of a knife in someone's chest being graphic, but a gun pointed at someone's head is not.

The only product of the technology of tomorrow is the speed of outrage, where two polar opposite opinions can clash with each other so violently only minutes, even seconds after a controversial event unfolds. Hell, people can jump on it in real-time at some point. It's this exponential acceleration of that speed of outrage that is the scariest thing to look towards in the future, and quite frankly, I don't want to be around for that.
