So, in case you haven't already noticed, the chat filtering system has been improved. Read this first:
http://www.roblox.com/SponsoredPage/NewChatSystem
Essentially what this says:
BOTH age groups (under 13 and over 13) will get filtered. (Using the ###'s). However, the under-13 group operates on a whitelist system, meaning the moderators have already decided which words they can say AND see. This is less freedom than 13+ users, but significantly more freedom than the preset sentences.
The 13+ age group, as said before, gets filtered as well. However, it is less restricted, and operates using a blacklist. A blacklist is a set of words that are NOT allowed to be said or seen. Essentially this means that 13+ users are a little bit more restricted on the words they can say.
Is this all a bad thing? No. Why? Because it enforces a bit better the basic rules of chatting on Roblox. This means that NO curse will get through the filter, and that personal information is harder to exchange, which is honestly a good thing for younger users.
Basically the new chat system:
-Actually blocks cursing and it's variations -Makes it harder to exchange personal information -Keeps rudeness to a minimum
It's not all bad. Yes, I am aware that the moderators are still sorting out the lists, so there are words and phrases that SHOULDN'T be blocked. However, patience is key here. As time goes on, it's going to be a lot easier to get used to.
Hope this helps. |

I can't say Swords, I can't say my username. I can't say guns or weapons or lets RP. I am 13+
15 actually.

| I really don't like the new chat filter because it blocks stupid words that poeple like my friends say cause we are older than younger kids! |

| Clearly you guys didn't read the article nor did you read the last few sentences of my post: They are working on perfecting the white/blacklists. |

If they started out this bad on the blacklist filter i'm sure it's going to be a few decades before they "perfect" it.

Nah. I expect it to get much worse. You know. Like everything else around here.
But yea. Roblox REALLY needs to fix this. More and more old and great players are leaving with each update, and me and my roleplay friends are moving off-site just because of this new chat system.
By the way, Roblox, you include the sword as a primary Brickbattle weapon but refuse to let the word be said? Yea... Something's definitely wrong here. T_T |

You're all over reacting. They set this as the default blacklist for several reasons.
They filtered roleplay, which I 100% support. RPing is basically nothing but an OD trap. A few weapon named got filtered for various reasons, and as stated my Tom, they're waiting for a user reaction to the filter to work on it.
It's only been a day or two, all of you need to calm down. Don't act like a spoiled little butthurt brat just because you got a few words taken away. If you want to RP for to IMVU or some crap. |
