1) Roblox should add more languages than English and German to the website, as the demands for English may be high but the demands for German are not, and there are other languages largely spoken on Roblox, such as Spanish, Portugese, and French.

2) Roblox should add the ability to add accent marks and special letters to the chat system. This facilitates the use of multiple languages. You could also use this feature for fun if you'd like, accents are pretty cool! :3

3) Roblox should re-add the manual chat system for guests and under-13 accounts. This helped all members of the Roblox community communicate between one another peacefully. And it was fun saying "Juice!" and "All your base are belong to me" to everybody! XD
_________________________________________________________________________________

Side Note: If you are against these reasons for one of the following, do not reply.
1. "I don't want to see other languages in the chat because its annoying"
-Roblox has a new /block and ignore feature, so you don't have to hear it.
2. "Almost everyone speaks English, it doesn't matter"
-Not everyone speaks English, and its about time we expand Roblox to all audiences.
3. "You cant speak this language because this is America" or "Go back to your own country if you want to speak your language"
-This is intolerable, everyone is equal and this isn't the place to offend people, especially since this is a child friendly game.
________________________________________________________________________________

I believe that Roblox should be an equally fun experience for all, and that we should have options for those of us who do not speak English, or who want to play games where they can communicate in another language easily. These are just my thoughts and ideas, and I'd be happy to hear any feedback or additional ideas you have. Feel free to message me on my account Starpower903!!! Thanks! :)

The issue would be that they'd need to hire translators to translate stuff.


It would cost, a lott of money.

No, it would not be that expensive. There are already tons of programs capable of typing out different languages and symbols. There are programs to support languages like Chinese, Arabic, etc. These days it is not hard to translate languages and symbols. We don't need stuff translated for us, we just need the option to create the characters of the languages. Nobody needs to translate Arabic to have people type it out, they just need to be able to type it lol if that makes sense?

Futile.
That would mean having to make more servers for people the speak different languages.
And we all know THAT'S not gonna happen so therefore every server will be mixed in with people speaking differnt languages and it will be confusing as heck.

You could simply ignore those people or Roblox can have a separate dimension of servers for different regions.

The fact that you have a problem with people speaking another language is bad enough, but im gonna skip that. You don't need separate servers for people who speak different languages. Most people here speak English anyway, but its not like 1000 people who speak Spanish are going to join one game lol. Not the point of this forum, so your reply is ignored. :)

It would be expensive to add new languages, but I agree. I can't believe they haven't added Spanish yet.

Instead of block/ignore there should be different chat servers ( chat gui ) to fit the language in. So people that speak engsh dont have to hear Ma ganda etong game.

To be honest, I think people who speak foreign languages (especially those that use latin characters) already communicate fine. It's typically understandable without accent marks, and many people wouldn't use them even if they had the option because they like to type quick since it's just in-game grammarless chat. I've seen Spanish, French and German speakers who get by fine without accent marks.

Support. There could be different chat 'rooms' for each language in each game and they would only run if 2 or more people of that language are in the server.

It's an American Game, English is the most widely spoken languages, But Spanish would be okay, because all the illegal immigrants will take over.

Mada754, that's a pretty broad generalization to say all Spanish-speakers living in the United States are illegal immigrants.

Mada754, you're being extremely racist. I feel sorry that your mind is so screwed up that you've formed racist prejudice against those people.
