Sorry is this is the Incorrect Forum, I was un-sure what category this falls under.
I'm creating a game that has the option for a Role-play Name but my main concern for this is that does ROBLOX filter Bad Language when its in the form of a Text Label?

| Pretty sure that's not right... Even if it is, I'd use this to be safe: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=API:Class/Chat/FilterStringForPlayerAsync |

Wow. Thank you, that would've been a lot easier to use than the chat filter I made for my custom chat. x.x

| ^^^ What C0D3Y said. You should always use that because it's being updated by ROBLOX. |

To clarify, no, Roblox DOES NOT filter out textlabels/textboxes/etc. However, like stated above, you can filter out "bad" words by using

wow... surprisingly enough, textlabels are filtered. they dont appear in #s - they just arent even accepted. so if i do like TextLabel.Text="[insertfword]", the textlabel's text would stay the way it is.
weird - never knew that. didnt test for textboxes though. |

Although the chat is filtered, they can still get away with putting symbols, numbers, or other characters in-place of one or more of the letters. That's why I suggest you make a custom filter that filters out all possible ways to get around the regular filter (this includes abbreviations).

yes... some people have found certain character that are ignored by roblox.
so people can type in a curse word, and insert the ignored characters, so it looks like they're cursing. |
