Currently Roblox allows you to block up to 50 users. This may be enough for some users that aren't being harassed very much or that simply move onto a different game and have no more issues with people. However, for those that are cyber bullied, especially streamers like myself that have to consistently deal with exploiters, this 50 limit isn't enough.
A 50 limit means I can block up to 50 exploiters, I blocked that many in practically my first two weeks of streaming Roblox. Sadly exploiters do exist and plenty of others that aim to ruin other people's day by being rude to others. This leads to me blocking others that spam the Roblox chat with inappropriate things, racism, vulgarity, and often worse.
Reasons to block someone:
- They're exploiting / cheating - They're harassing you. Ex. Calling you names, being mean, saying you're bad, etc. Especially in the case of new players, which turns them away from enjoying Roblox. - People joining your games to target you specifically. - People saying vulgar stuff in chat that you'd like to block out. - Whatever reason you want, since it's your right to block them.
I'm sure I'm not the only person or streamer that has hit that 50 limit. It's not okay to simply say, remove a few old people that you blocked. That just provides an opportunity for these people to strike back up.
I shouldn't have to worry about my only form of protection against other harassers and exploiters being unavailable. If you've been harassed by a player, or exploited, or in a game where you were exploited, make sure your voice is heard. Drop a comment below saying what was done to you.

Support, Snake. I think that it's a good idea. Actually i think there shouldn't be a limit to it.

I also agree. Why should there be a limit? A limit on blocking people is like limiting how safe you can feel. Bumpppp.

Tell that to the kid who gets multiple people picking on them in Roblox and can't do anything about it. They can't play their favorite game(s) anymore because they can't block anyone. What now? Cyber bullying is a legitimate issue, regardless of whether or not it exists.
Sadly people will always get hated, that doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to do anything about it. I understand where you're coming from nonetheless. One of the other major issues is exploiters, what if you can't block exploiters from joining your matches anymore? You literally can't play then.
Unfortunately Roblox has such a large playerbase, that you know there's always an exploiter lurking that Roblox isn't banning or removing from the game right away. If ever.

@binh12 It's not about 'getting hated'. It's about the fact of being able to do something about it so your experience isn't ruined by some kid. Harassment is against the rules, reporting usually does nothing, so the only option to prevent anything is blocking. He streams daily, and as soon as ROBLOX awarded him the weekly streamer award headset he was hit by an exploiter. Literally his first worry was "Can I even block this guy, or is my list still full" Somebody was hindering something he's trying to turn into a career, he shouldn't need to worry about losing it because somebody wanted to be inconsiderate. If he's unable to block the person after reporting them already, then he cant stream. If he's unable to block the person, that's one more group of people in a server having a ruined experience on ROBLOX because a kid wanted 15 seconds of fame to say 'Hey, I exploited this guy". Or even spamming vulgarity into the chat by bypassing the ROBLOX filters, which I've seen happen way to many times. So many things get false reported, so reports don't get taken seriously, or do much to begin with. Blocking is literally the only way to avoid that. If you've got people following you server to server, game to game, then you're practically being forced off ROBLOX. Because the person choosing to stalk you has no life, and you can't block them, because of all the other 50 people on your block list. Yes, some people can make new accounts, but that shouldn't be the solution. To start over. In snakes situation that isn't possible, if he makes a new account people will find it because of twitch. So please, continue to tell us how he needs to "Man up dude, it's the internet."

Wowz! I don't know if i support this but my mind is telling me no. But mah body MAHHH BODY IS TELLING ME YESSSSS! K.
I support snake! ROBLOX! Increase the block limit. 50 is just not enough. What is the point in having a limit anyway? The limits just annoy people because there is lots of commotion in roblox. There is no doubt in my mind that there are over millions of hackers, spammers, and bots in roblox. Roblox currently has around 36 million, that may not seem like a lot of these people (spammers, hackers, bots etc.) but it really is. think about it. what if raiding servers becomes a thing? (It kind of already has) The whole server can be screwed. Especially if it's on Natural Disasters, that's already half of someone's block list taken up. Please consider Snakester's idea. If not using it in the near future.

I agree with you. But for now you should unblock your 1st blocked person to save room just in case they forgot about you. You can also ban them from your games. And there is no limit to how many people you can ban from a game.

Support.
To be honest, why is there even a limit?
A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. |

@cpmoderator12345 Actually, if you think Snake is a... whatever you said, you clearly don't know who he is of how he acts. Snake is probably one of the nicest and most understanding people I know. As a close friend of his, that's something I can definitely call a true statement. Either way; look at you, breaking a S&I rule by making a rude remark. I think you just proved part of Snakes point, as well as others. Lots of nasty people on the internet. |

Support, Snake ;)
I fully on agree with your statement. I seen quite a bit of bullies making alt accounts and exploits too get away with things and people unable to block them due too the blocking limit even after making it friends only. Quite weird right?
Even from how much you look at me... I'm always a Wizard Harry! |

| Wow, what are you? I get abused daily on roblox and elsewhere on the internet, still I never blocked anyone because no matter what they say it ain't gonna be true and if you feel depressed if someone abuses you online you might as well leave the internet. However, if you really need to block someone, I support you in that case that there should be no limit to blocking people. Block all ya want to your heart's content. Its your choice, support. |

IM ETHAN BRADBERRY, I agree. People of Roblox exploit almost every game and target other streamers to (what you said) stop enjoy roblox. Roblox is a kid friendly place where friends are to play together, enjoy games, and not to be disturbed by these notorious exploiters. Back then when I started playing Roblox at 2010 their were practically no exploiters what so ever. But now, man I can't even count them all. Everytime I join a game I get loop killed. And Reporting/Banning 50 users aren't enough.
