Story of the biggest roblox copyright letdown (TRUE STORY) ( If you want skip this ) :
Since the roblox put a ban on bytecode (Read ROBLOX Blog post if you are unaware of what this is) for possible future exploits reasons in 2012 read more in roblox blog post here called 'Bye Bye Bytecode'
The Link: http://blog.roblox.com/2012/08/bye-bye-bytecode/
Anyways, it was a big let down in August 2012... from 2007-2012 people could protect their scripts from stealers while 'HardCoding' your name into the script so people would know who the official owner was it was un configurable. The scripts could not be decoded at all it was impossible... Something even more sad was only 100 places used the byte encryption. Roblox totally forgot that lua even had byte codes and when they did find out they could be a potential risk to a new large exploit coming out like the recent (DLL INJECTION PATCHED) they had a long voting and discussion meeting about it... Obviously, they decided to terminate it... When people logged on the next day to see the roblox blog they saw 'Bye Bye Bytecode' then there 1000's of roblox script publishers realized they could of protected their scripts before this whole time! But the 100 of places that did have it broke down and were labeled "UnPlayable"
Here is the roblox script that broke in the updates that robloxians could've used:

( Read the Idea now )
The Idea( READ THIS ): ROBLOX You need to come out with another way we can copyright our models so we can have 100% credit and so other users cannot make other models of it! Our work down the drain so people can take credit of it what has this world come to! LoadStrings are decodable NOW MAKE US BE ABLE TO HAVE CREDIT FOR WHAT WE CREATE! SUPPORT! |

How about you save that ON A FILE instead of a MODEL? |
|
|
Really?
FM's are meant to be used for other users maybe make it private.

no support at all. when you make a model free, you make it public domain. it isnt against the rules to steal or copy it. its uncopylocked. |
|
|
What is with the no supports. The reasons you give is garbage. If he wants something like Bytecode, I'm sure he means a way to encode your things and make it harder for people to decode your code so hackers don't just take what they want.
And apparently you guys think that hackers only take scripts from free models. :o! Those hacking baddies! |
|

support even though I dont script |

This idea should go through... When you get your models out on a public domain people should be able to tell it's yours! Roblox needs to add something where you can republish a model with the owners name in it saying he created it or something like that people need to take credit for their work... |
|

Support. I hate when noobs do that.

I don't care so much for models, but it'd be great if we could use the LinkedSource of scripts. =/
Just publish the script to the website, do a simple encryption on it, then only the asset holder can see it / sell it
^ selling scripts would be possible without other people spreading the script around once they get it. |

I know protecting scripts is very essential support ( Support even if you don't script ) |

If you want to give your item on the market you should be able to say you made it... |

I don't support this. Sure, I want an anti-copy system for models, but there is no sound implementation that leaves anyone happy.
Also, the admins knew of bytecode for a long time, and the reason they removed it was an exploit in which you could gain SERVER_SIDE_CORESCRIPT use!
Do you remember when a few thousand users got "The Last Egg", and everyone thought ROBLOX (the user) was "hacked"?
Yeah, that was that.

@LuaWeaver for a person who posts a lot of good stuff it leaves a good implementation of them being happy |
