So lately I been getting spammed by accounts that go by the name of ReadMyProfile_(random letters). These bots have been spamming my friend requests and my messages, promoting a "free" robux advertisement. Image Example of the accounts: ########################

How hard is it to decline their friend request?


I dreamt I was forced to eat a giant marshmallow. When I woke up, my pillow was gone. R$

I searched for "ReadmyProfile" on "People" and it gave me over over 3,000 pages with over 30,000 results!!! Lemme reitterate, 30,000 RESULTS!!! And thats just "ReadmyProfile" That doesn't count "ReadmyDesc" or stuff like that. This is a serious problem on this platform and Roblox needs to do something big to crack down on these bot accounts.

For a temporary solution, Report and ignore these accounts.

Here's some of my Ideas for permanent solutions:

1. If not already applied, install an "Are you a robot" type of program like reCAPTCHA on the account creation screen. Simple enough

If for some reason that doesn't work:

2. I suggest a plugin that tracks for a botting program whenever an account is made, and then if one is found, the account immediately gets shut down and it shuts down all accounts tied to that computer's ## ####### (this is so that computer wouldn't be able to make more botted accounts). And for every update to the platform, a worldwide scan can be done to all accounts at once to check for signs of a botted account, and if it finds one, it shuts it down as well as all accounts tied to that computer's ## ######## Of course these banned accounts would be able to be appealed in case of an error, but it would not unban the actual IP until all of the accounts on that IP were successfully appealed.

If Roblox sees this particular post, and applies these solutions (or a variant of them) in the next update, I'm sure the botting will become less of an issue on this platform, and Roblox will be a safer platform.

Yes, I wonder why and who is causing this. Of course, ROBLOX most likely has NO clue. I'm gonna try and investigate.
