because roblox is being rude

for some reason if they find a censorable word they will remove all of the \n and line breaks in the text

and if it finds untabbed lua code or too many censorable words it decides to censor everything

some bad filtering update most likely

Why "hashtag"??????!? It's a hash, pound sign, or number sign. A hashtag is a tag used in certain places denoted by the hash prefix.


Roblox switched to Community Sift for their filters.

Rocrap finally realized their filter was garbage so they paid to use a third-party one that's even worse

That moment when you get hashtag'd on a thread about getting hashtag'd.

yeah but the wackest thing is that it hashtags entire sentences and paragraphs instead of just the inappropriate word

even worse it gets more sensitive if you type certain blacklisted words

like if you typed one word incorrectly it can end up making 20% of your text or 100% turn into hashtags and you will never know what was originally violating it and if you manage to remove it the other words will not be affected

man the weirdest thing is is that certain paragraphs will get hashtagged for no reason, but you can use those same words in different order and not get hashtagged

the algorithm is horrible
