Chat is a communication feature in many multiplayer games, including ROBLOX. In the computer, chatting with other people is usually used with the keyboard. Since ROBLOX is an online game, it has two types of chat: Normal Chat and Safe Chat. These features allows the player to chat with other players and friends on the game.

Safe Chat

Players under the age of 13 can only use Safechat. When restricted to Safechat, players cannot type messages to other players and can only use Safe Chat by clicking the small blue speech bubble icon at the left side. After clicking, the icon would then produce a list of possible message choices, with some of the choices being able to be branched down by moving the arrow over said message choice. The player could click on the wanted message to say it to other players. In addition, those who are restricted to safechat could not receive messages from normal chat. Players over the age of 13 could use both Safechat and normal chat, but if parents decide to let their child use normal chat, that is allowed.


Normal Chat

layers who are 13 years and over can use Normal Chat. This enables the player to see a small, long grey line with some white text that says "Type / to chat or click here." The player could press / or click the bar with the left mouse button to allow the player to type any message they would send to other players. Although virtually anything can be typed down and said to other players, the player cannot and should not type in vulgar words, as the player could be kicked out of the game or banned for saying the word, although some players have found some ways to bypass the restriction of actual swear words, such as by typing the swear word one letter by one letter or by using alternate spelling to make the word resemble the vulgar word.

Team Chat is a chatting feature added on ROBLOX in 2008. It can be activated by chatting "%" (percent) before typing the adorning message. The message will be sent to all the players who are in the same team as the player who typed the message. This function is only useable when the % is the very first character in the sentence, for example:

"% Bloxx that guy" will come up in team chat

" % Bloxx that guy" will NOT come up in team chat since there is a space before the percent.

If there is no team then the sentence will not say (TEAM) at the front and the % will be shown. The team that appears briefly if the player has a laggy computer (called neutral) does not get called as a "team," and if they type with the percents and attempt to teamchat nothing will happen. Team Chat is helpful for making up a plan or giving out a strategy for a game without the other team knowing, especially for war games with teams. Normally, without team chat, the other player may know the plans and/or even attempt to foil the plan. However, because it comes from free chat, safechat players may not see the chat and may not even follow said command. Safechat players can include Guests, players who have not yet created an account in Roblox, and players whose age is below the age of 13.

A common mistake that is made by newer users of Roblox is typing out (TEAM) instead of writing %. If (TEAM) is simply typed, it is not accepted as team chatting, therefore the other team is able to read the context of the message.
