Oh boy, this is gonna be a long read, so if you don't wanna spend your time on this, go to the bottom for too long didn't read

So, hashtags, the bane of (almost) every user's existence. Whether it's them that says hashtag every 3 words or just their friends, some words are broken and should be fixed.

First of all, let's start with how roblox implements some words that can be bypassed easily. Let me just give an example, They don't hashtag the words kill and streak, yet they hashtag them together. Why would they do that you're wondering? No idea.
You can bypass that easily by using spaces, try that yourself on a custom chat gui such as phantom forces.
The simple solution would be to hashtag the word kill itself or just plain remove the censoring for the words together.
Remember this most likely doesn't apply to those two words either (Haven't tested any other words)

Second: hash tagging random words.

I haven't tested this myself since I currently don't have the time, but i'm 100% positive there are still many random words even after the recent update.
If I talked all about this, it would take hundreds of lines so i'm not gonna go in full detail. I can just say that roblox should remove most of the random words.
Yes I do know some of those words are frequently used to ask/give personal info so I'd recommend to hashtag those words ONLY if other keywords are in place

Third: cheese

Fourth: Spreading of hashtags

This is probably a very controversial and opinionated topic i'm gonna leap into, but I can't ignore this.
Spreading of hashtags (soh) infects your entire message with hashtags if one word was hashtagged. It was added in the latest hashtag update (some of you may not know about this if you haven't been in a game with a custom chat gui in a while). (THERY OPINIONATED TIME) On one side (mine) I've found this to be crazy and wish for it to be removed, however the argument against me and this side is that there could be other words that would tell you enough info to figure what the person said. Once again not gonna go full detail into this and i'm gonna try and be as passive as possible (UR NOT BEING NEUTRAL N00B). I don't have a good solution for this as of now (HASHTAG THE KEY WORDS N00B).

That's all i'm gonna get into.
But that isn't all.
Bad words not being hashtagged, words that are wrongly pronounced being hashtagged, long words being hashtagged

Too long didn't read: joey talks about bypassing hashtags with spaces, hash tagging random words, cheese and the new hashtag spread update that makes all words hash tagged if one word is hashtagged

I like constructive criticism so please give me all of that.
will ro of the block game mods see this? the world will never know
You have no idea how many times I had to type this out because of all the hash tags that would of showed

Yeah, they have no plans on fixing this despite all of the hate this update is getting. They never listen to anything on this forum so chances are it's going to be this way forever.

Better to be on the forum than to be in a comment section slowly fading away, at least the mods check the forum more often and I can bump several times

There are so many remove hashtag posts going on I don't even know which one you're talking about.

I just thought I would bring another one in too
