ROBLOXians who can free chat should be allowed to chat decals from there MyDecals category (continue reading).
When you chat something, you should have the option to attach a decal by pressing CTRL + D. After that shows up it opens up a GUI in-game that shows all your decals in your MyDecals category (it should be scrollable so you can scroll down to see all). You select the one you want and then afterwards a little camera icon shows up next to your chat.
After you send your chat if it has a attached decal on it other players wil see a camera icon next to your chat. To view the decal they must click the camera to open it and click the close window to close it. This could be really cool because you could post pictures and memes that were approved by ROBLOX and added by other people. Plus it would give the MyDecals category a lot more purpose than just for building.
If spamming would be an issue, give the command a 20 second cool-down.
The only real problem is that more and more players will begin trying to get ROBLOX approval for images, which can be time-consuming for admins and mods.
Support would be nice. |

Also ability too post more than one at a time as long as it fits MB cap. If it doesn't it will say "Too many MB. Remove an image." |

Its a great idea. But the one problem is.. Screamer pictures. You know, scary decals that mods accidentally let through the system. (theres alot of them) Trolls might make them and post them all over the place. |

Good point. Maybe make it if you hover your cursor on camera icon you see a small thumbnail?
They're not as scary if they're really small. And you get a warning that way. |

Oh I know!
If that happens you can mark the decal as inappropiate and when they see the chat next to the camera icon it will show that.
As well as also making it so if you report them for it they have a severe punishment. |

Hmmm, support. But about the 20 seconds.. Make it 1 minute
If they post any scary/adult content, report them [REPORT>REPORT CHATLOG]
If there's minimum 3 reports on the same server by different people, a moderation will check the SERVER Chatlog. If he/she finds any moderatable content, he/she will ban the user.
From IN-GAME [24 Hours]
If he/she keep doing this [3 Days]
If he/she keep doing this [1 Week ban from games + Warning on the site]
If he/she keep doing this [2 Week ban from games + 3 Day ban on the site] |

I understand decals in forum posts on S&I, builders & scripters helpers and "I made that". But why do you need decals in chat?
To constantly post stupid memes, emoticons and free place advertisements? That's not what decals are for. |

Even if they do stuff like that, it starts out hidden so it won't really be bothering you.
You don't have to look at the decal. |

5 minute cool-down. Not abuse-able, no spam. |

Why would you/someone use decals in chat?
Besides memes and ads = in a usefull way.
I support if you have a good answer ;) |

Other reasons besides that are to:
1) Show pictures of things you're trying to explain. (If someone doesn't know what you're talking about or is unfamiliar with it, you can explain it with a picture)
2) Share ROBLOX screenshots in chats.
3) When trying to make a decal for someone to use in their place, group, etc, you can show them your decal in game.
4) Can post pictures of emoticons to express yourself more clearly. (not only memes)
5) Show pictures of concepts that you are trying to make.
6) Share decals you have made and are proud of.
I have more suggestions. Not all of these may sound good, but you have to have an open mind. This won't necessarily limit or hinder you to memes and ad spamming. And it wouldn't hurt to actually understand the memes that people already chat if they actually chat the picture itself. |

1,2: it can take hours or even days before a picture gets through moderation, so this wouldn't work.
3: just send them the link in a PM
4: I mentioned emoticons and memes, this is what I was worried for. Memes are getting old/outdated. I don't want people to constantly post annoying memes instead of talking.
For emoticons try:
;) | XD | :'( | :3 | :p | (^_^;) | (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
5,6: Why would you have these? Are you planning on just joining random games to show your creations through decals (which would be like ads (look at and visit/take my place/model/decal)). Do this on the forum "I made that" section. (I would support adding decals to forum posts).
Sorry, not convinced on the decals in chat. |

@tamoti
You're limiting yourself to one scenario.
1 and 2) You don't necessarily not have the decal already. There are plenty of decals already out there that might be the one you're looking for. If you need to add one then ok it might take a while, but it's more using decals you already have or getting ones other people have. The number of decals would expand anyways.
3) Wouldn't it be nice to have a faster way as well? It's not the only thing you could do, either.
4) If you don't like it, like I said before, you don't have to look at it. The command cool-down time me and other people said earlier would fix spamming and abusing and overusing it. A lot of people would enjoy this feature.
5 and 6) Who said the situation had to be random? I don't always play on public servers.
You don't have to like it if you don't want to, but I will try to convince you because I care what you think.
I'll let you decide.
If you're out, OK. If you support, even better :)

"but it's more using decals you already have or getting ones other people have"
The decals other people have aren't in the mydecals section, so maybe not limit it to mydecals but also others decals. Even if I don't support the use of memes you know this feature will cause that and we don't want to burden the Roblox servers with 1.000.000 identical "me gusta" decals.
I was only thinking about front page games. But I guess it could be usefull in group places and personal servers.
Ok, you convinced me SUPPORT.
(But it has to be optional in place configuration to allow it or not, cause I can see it ruining certain games) |
