You may have been experiencing lots and lots of censored content from other players in-game, and most of these filtered words, as you could probably guess, are not even inappropriate words. This is because ROBLOX is using a new filter called Community Sift, which you may recognize as the filter system used for Animal Jam. This filter applies to users 13+ as well. Community Sift is a broken filtering system, even more so than the under-13 filter that was in place before. Sift supposedly filters words or phrases with these qualities:

Bullying
Spam
Self-Harm
Racist hate speech
Fraud

However, Sift basically blocks ALL words that aren't present in its whitelist. Meaning that if you say a word that isn't in the filter, regardless of if this word doesn't meet the criteria for being filtered, it comes out as hashtags.

I joined ROBLOX in 2012 to meet new people and have fun. But now whenever I talk to them, they'll reply back "sorry i don't speak hashtags." The moderators cheaped out and gave up on trying to filter the chat themselves, and instead decided to let other people do it for them. But this filter has completely broken the chat system!! This is NOT what ROBLOX needs or deserves. Sign this petition to fix our broken chat filters!

I agree completely with this. Also, in my opinion roblox needs to completely re-think the way their privacy is set. Most users nowadays (the older ones, and ones that understand how to use it) use third party communication sites. In my opinion, roblox needs to get rid of this filter for the older users. I think a new age limit should be placed, say the 16-17 range that there is a very limited filter, mostly for catching very bad stuff.. Such as illegal sites, sites that could lead to exploitation, and sites that could steal personal information. This filter system should not worry about foul language, because honestly it does not matter for someone of that age. It would be better to have this, than to have people resorting to third party sites that could actually be very dangerous for users that do not know how to correctly use it, or users that are not mature enough to use it safely. I do think that it would be wise, to keep the basic security for those under 13 and a list of banned words for users 13-16 age range.

This is essentially what we have as of right now. No support, there are plenty of SFW things I attempt to say now that are always censored.


why make trillions when we can make.... billions?

Support, every time I talk to my friends on a game and say a word such as "skype" it gets censored. Why did roblox have to make this?

no age filter will help. if people find out about it. they will make their age over the limit.

Support. You can't even say "gameball" without it being up in #'s. In Multiplayer Studio, I said "do" and "I" and it #'d it.
