Anybody else agree that it would be great to have access to HTTP GET for pages on roblox.com?

Like we could use the friend and group methods without the player having to be in the game.

^The methods are 'attached' to the Instance of the player though, so they have to be in the game. ​>:(

I wish we could a list of items owned by players in a table, split into subtables for each type (pants, place, shirt, badge, package)

As well as get group logos, forums, news, new items in the catalog, front page games, place descriptions, group shouts (if the owner of the game can view them) and so on all without needing a player.

As well as being able to see if a player is allied, or enemies with a group and getting a table of all the group that the player is in.

Yes.
I could list things.
It'd be nice to have a browser Instance that we could directly take the HTML from.
But that's an ugly work around.

Yes, that would be so smart, because I could steal everyone's account just by being with them in a game -___-

Keep dreaming sunshine. That's not possible.

Access could be restricted to the pages in http://www.roblox.com/Game/LuaWebService/.

Yes, it would allow a lot of online data to 'process' in-game mode :D.

It would also mean that you could query anyone's PMs and other private data, that happens to be in your game, and that sort of thing.

@Luc: Its far from unreasonable to ask for evidence to back up a claim like that.

@Strav: What about restricting access to /Game/LuaWebService?

It's opening a whole new can of worms to try to arbitrarily separate pages into a set of "safe" pages and unsafe ones. There's no way that the devs would be able to get it right and maintain it.

And then there would be constant complaints of "why is XXX page blocked??"
