Hello, community of Roblox. I used to be a well known S&I former, and to date I have made contributions to the way Roblox has changed over the past couple of years. However, this has never been anything major. I would like to outline the BIGGEST problems we have within Roblox, and the BEST ways that we could improve. There are so many threads in S&I that have things so minor, or have nothing useful at all, and I want to bring the most important issues into one thread. This brings me into my first point.

There is no 'TL;DR' as this thread cannot be understood without reading through it. Please just don't post on it if there is nothing you would like to contribute.


== AN INPUT FROM THE COMMUNITY ==

Roblox listens to the developers, forumers, group members, players, and randomers through a variety of ways. This could include tweets @ROBLOX, videos on YouTube posted by well known members of the community, comments on the Roblox blog, PMs to Roblox staff, and of course, the forums.

The forums are a very useful part of Roblox. They are a place where we can communicate with all other Robloxians across the world. This includes the staff at Roblox, and they can judge how the community feels about updates, changes, and additions to the site and the game.

Most notably ATR and S&I serve this purpose. Or at least they used to. Suggestions, ideas, criticisms, and helpful points are read by the moderators in these forums, influencing the way the game changes. However, these forums are not in the shape they used to be. In just aTR, I rarely see moderators post as much as they used to. Which is acceptable, they can't spend all their time joining in. However, I have noticed a decline in the quality of posts. In S&I, this occurs even more so.

We need to remove or change S&I and give the players a way to make their voice hard in the chaos that are the forums right now. One possibility is a sort of 'direct message' system to Roblox. People could write out their thoughts, and the Roblox staff reading them could pass on anything they see that fits with how Roblox should be, or anything that appears often in those messages.

In order to keep this clean, and not clog it up with unrelated topics, this should be limited to one message a day. That isn't long in reality, and another idea could be sent the following day. Of course keeping with the community guidelines, anything 'dumb' sent it should be a bannable offence.


== BULLYING & OFFENSIVE BEHAVIOUR ==

Within Roblox, I see some terrible things happen. I am certain, absolutely 100% certain that the Roblox staff probably underestimate how much of a problem this actually is. I am aware of the argument that 'It's the internet!' and that we are human and being anonymous on the internet means people will do as they will. Well no, that's not how it works.

Roblox should include the ability to add a screenshot, or at least images saved to a user's computer, into the reporting ability in-game. Not all offences include just what is in the chat. I've seen exploiting and rudeness that isn't logged. Messages typed onto GUI text can't be seen by Roblox and are largely ignored.

Having said that, players need to remember that the report button exists as well. I see much arguing among the younger players, calling other gamers nasty names, and even if they can take it (or if they can't) they need to be more aware that they can do something about it and use that report button.

The reporting function needs a change. It needs to change to keep up with Roblox as it is so far in 2016.


====----====

As there is a lot of information here already, I'm actually not going to post the minor suggestions I have for the moment. These two issues are the biggest problems I have found within Roblox. This thread doesn't need 'supports' although criticism is acceptable.

What this thread needs is bumping to the top of S&I and for that to happen until the Roblox staff read it, and can do something about these major issues. This will improve Roblox and make it far more enjoyable.

1) No support, I feel that members of the community should be able to provide feedback on suggestions. However, I also agree with you that this subforum is chaotic. The rules should be better enforced.

2) Support.

We have always had the ability to take screenshots, but those screenshots need to be of high quality and must be seen by the admins to actually do any good.

Bullying is a major problem and needs to be taken more seriously.

I don't think we need a direct message system to roblox. If people really think something should be change, and s&i isn't enough for them, they can always contact the company itself outside of the website. Even with just one message a day, it would become so overcrowded with suggestions that it'd become obsolete. How many people play roblox? A million? Who wants to read all that.
