There wasn't a good way of dealing the bots.

Captcha? Probably bypassed

Ban wave? Create new accounts

This was the best way ROBLOX could find.

Yeah, I don't pretend to understand how to manage security on this scale, but having worked with that team firsthand I know they're pretty no-nonsense, skilled people. If it came down to this, I'm going to guess this was the best option we had.

There wasn't another choice. They had to face an upset community for safety. The knew it would happen.

"The community should vote for it."

Normally, that would be fine, but when it comes to user security and safety it's important to let our technicians do what they need to.

I don't think you guys realize the different million types of captchas there are. And besides, if somehow the bots do bypass it, it would take months, maybe even years.

Technology is better than ever, it will probably take days at the least to bypass it.

The main problem with this update is that if it gets exploited, it'll be hard to change servers

I guess it's nice that they're taking steps against this, but if I have to be brutally honest in my opinion, how far are we going to go to protect accounts of people who clearly don't read what is said about not being able to get ################# ###################

Then just move to another game. Simple solution. Play the game later.
