A while ago I've noticed that commenting has been removed for games. Now, I understand the whole fuss about inappropriate comments, spam, scamming et cetera- but couldn't the mods resort to a different kind of approach in terms of dealing with the aforementioned issues with the community? Couldn't they have made some sort of filter that disabled copy/pasting on comments to prevent spamming? Even though a certain portion of the community doesn't necessarily make comments relevant to the game they're posting the comment on- I still think that this whole issue could've been solved differently and not removing commenting altogether from games.

TL;DR - ROBLOX removed commenting from games altogether instead of finding a way to filter specific types of comments and disabling the copy and pasting feature in the commenting section. Most users post irrelevant stuff in the games' comment sections but the mods could've found an alternate way of preventing spamming, scamming and foul behavior in the comments.

Well, you know Roblox, they aren't one for straightforward solutions like captchas or r9k. :^)

I'm guessing they're worried about having some kind of extra step to commenting that would prevent spammers also has the chance of confusing kids. Probably want to make everything as accessible as possible to them, not to mention they probably see removing the comments as a way of protecting them from scams.

That's the part that bothers me the most. No feedback, no friendly conversations (if lucky enough)- no actual communication outside of said game. Nothing.

The problem is that roblox staff for some reason DONT WANNA TAKE THE SMART IDEAS to fix the scam sites. They could have added C A P T C H A, Filter, make you need to have an acc older than 1 week to be able to comment, etc. But for some reason they tried 10 + different things and none worked. So they decided to remove comments. ( why ? idk )

They always say that they're trying their hardest yet they remove things when they fail to find a solution only 10 times. It's not really fair.
