So I just spent close to two hours typing out a post, and when I FINALLY finished, ROBLOX gives me this message saying that "a word in my post is offensive" and that I can't post it.

Okay, that's fine (not really), but I would at least like to know what word was "offensive". I can't think of ONE word in that post that could be remotely considered offensive. I can't remove it if I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS. So here's what I request:

First, fix the banned word list or whatever so you don't pointlessly block more posts.

Second, if we do say something that's ACTUALLY offensive, please tell us what it is. It's not like we'll be offended by it, after all, we used it.

Lastly, let us back to our post so we can edit it and not have to retype the ENTIRE THING.

Sorry for raging, but I am so frustrate right now I could flip a table.

Can't agree more. Really, I've had waaaaay too many posts blocked for the same stupid reason. Both figuratively and stupid-stupid.

"Second, if we do say something that's ACTUALLY offensive, please tell us what it is. It's not like we'll be offended by it; after all, we used it."
No words. (Really.)

"Lastly, let us back to our post so we can edit it and not have to retype the ENTIRE THING."
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

Nah, I can give you real raging if you want. Not myself, obviously; more of a ROBLOX.txt thing.

Support. I know how you feel.

However, a potential downside could be someone using a word that's actually offensive, and then using different symbols/letters to bypass the filter.

all u gotta do is press the button to go back a page, and allllll your words are still there, just go through and delete the words that can be filtered, (i.e words that can be insulting, words related to account stealing, and other banned words like cuss words)

its not hard, don't whine

@Grant

The go back to post button doesn't take you back to what you were typing, it takes you back to the thread. Pressing the back button on the browser takes you to the new post page but everything you had typed before is now gone.

the things is, grant, ROBLOX likes to get a little too kid friendly and censor things that normally wouldn't be worthy of being censored. of course we know to censor words like d[@]mn or h[e]ll as a precaution, but not words like p[@]ssword, [@]ccount,and p0m p0m.

and then there's the trouble of finding out which d[@]mn word ROBLOX finds too sensitive for our supposedly delicate ears

while it's easy to do on a post as short as this, it s[u]cks when the filter blocks your word wall, rant, essay, guide, application, detailed suggestion, story, etc.

Roblox probably doesn't do this because then we'd know every word that's filter and we'd come up with creative new ways to bypass the filter.
