You can't make this stuff up

I wish I was kidding but I'm not, take a look at this all the way at the bottom

http://devforum.roblox.com/t/updates-to-chat-privacy-api-new-account-indicators-change-to-sift-apis/33867

The good news though is that they're changing chat so you can restrict it to friends only if you want, so I guess if you're one of those people tired of encountering idiots in-game then this is for you

"I want to remind everyone that while earnest discussion is encouraged. Negative comments, anecdotal stories, and memes will be removed from this thread without warning."

No, JParty, that's not encouraging open discussion if you're only allowing certain opinions to be said

And it's not happening @incog this is the plan and they're sticking to it

Eventually everything will be censored, and will will just have to communicate with morse code. (A dash has two spaces around it) ### # # # ### (SOS, dot dot dot, dash dash dash, dot dot dot)

"No, JParty, that's not encouraging open discussion if you're only allowing certain opinions to be said"

Well, saying "The filter has problems X, Y, and Z" is constructive, and saying "the filter is worse than X because Y and should be just removed no questions asked" is a negative comment.

GollyGreg already pointed out in the thread why people less than 13 can't say numbers, and there is also the reason of giving out their age. It goes against COPPA.

Yeah I guess, but is there really no way for the filter to look at numbers in context and see whether or not people are actually giving out their age?

I mean, they're used for far more than just that, that seems way too extreme

Player safety is important but there's a pretty bold line between "safety" and what's unnecessary

I actually typed up something on this filter earlier, it's worth considering

Let's get one thing clear: the current filter is bad, it is a problem, it needs change. It is censoring words that are in the top 20 most used words, and preventing completely innocent discussion. There are alternative ways of censoring things that don't prevent real innocent discussion.

As if my opinion of the staff couldn't get any worse, I see this. Why not add helicopter-parent settings that are completely optional instead of going back to ##### ########### communication?

They are kinda optional @polymind, but like Nexus said there's these COPPA guidelines they have to follow when doing updates

A lot of it definitely makes sense, but this one is absurd

"People can just lie about their age"

There will be without a doubt, both trolls and people that know to register above 13. However, there are still a massive amount of people (and the parents who make the account) that don't lie about ages.

At this point I'd rather have a filter that works for both sides (-13 and 13+) while not being as insane as a soccermom.
