Apparently, some other people have it, and some others do not. Could somebody explain this to me? |

| Probably an update. Try playing a game and see if an update occurs. |

| It's a GUI chat bar instead of the normal one. And because it's GUI it has a character limit. And it's VERY annoying. The chat bar itself I can handle, but they seriously have to remove the character limit or get passed it. It's in RobloxPlayerBeta.exe which starts up if I join a game instead of regular RobloxPlayer.exe |

This got me wondering...
If you can start a game with the old client, what if you start the game with the 2012 one, would the dll hack work? |

| Yeah, that's why I posted that method earlier. Some people aren't being forced to use RobloxPlayerBeta yet. I'm not sure why, but enjoy it while it lasts I guess... |

@crusada
If you managed to get an old client, and join a game (good luck) then you can actually use old hacks. |

You know, people on Mac OS X (like me) cannot actually paste things in the chat bar in the first place.
Script builders are and always were a bad idea. If you allow everyone to run arbitrary code at run time in a multi-player environment, it's not going to end well no matter what happens. |

| I'm perfectly fine with the new chat bar limit. Nobody should ever chat more than 1000 characters at once anyway. Script builders aren't a valid excuse. |

Yeah, but some people still like to use them. I use them occasionally and it can get really annoying very fast. That's why everyone has abandoned Ana's SB because it's just turned into a game where whoever runs the first admin script wins and takes over the server. There are some other script builders that are much more civilized though.
And, really? I didn't know you couldn't paste into the chat bar on Mac... :l |

@crusada You'd have to get level 7 in the command bar, disable the version check(which is very difficult.) Unless you're experienced, you will not be able to do it; if you can do it, then it would be easier to exploit the current client, so it's not even worth it. |

| Exploiting is bad, I hope it never comes. I hate when games get stolen and sold, then the owners get mad. Like 1dev2 (1dev3 now) |

No, there aren't. All the script builders are identical, although some have features that some others don't.
I'll just quote ArceusInator here:
"SBs don't work unless everyone is playing fair and having fun, but no one has fun if everyone is playing fair. They defeat their own purpose just by being what they are." - ArceusInator |

| Not sure why some of you wouldn't have it, but re-installing ROBLOX should probably fix that. |

Let's replace a few words:
"Civilization don't work unless everyone is playing fair and having fun, but no one has fun if everyone is playing fair. They defeat their own purpose just by being what they are."
In any event, this means people can start getting out their pseudo-text boxes.

In SB, couldn't you just create a textbox in your GUI, then a script that accepts input and uses loadstring() on it? :)

| The textbox is just as limited as the chatbar. |

@Dr
TextBoxes have text limits, too. |

| No, you couldn't. If you make a 'TextBox' it will still have the same limitation in characters as the 'TextBox' that is going to be the chat bar. |

Then make the system create more textboxes as you reach the end of one... You will need to click on the next one, but that should be too bad. |

| Or you could make your own text box. That would work too. |
