I've heard (and seen) a lot of hacking going around, and suddenly people's places are getting sabotaged. I don't know about you, but I like my place and don't want IT getting messed up either, so here's my suggestion:
Stop HACKING.
I understand you can't just program a few lines of programming and say "there! I'm done with THAT problem..." because Hacking is extensive. Still, I think that there should be safer methods to get all this done.
In the mean time, I SUGGEST that all those who like their complicated/large place SAVE IT ON TO THEIR HARDDRIVE. Then, if it gets hacked, all you must do is rewrite the Workspace (copy+paste), lights, teams, etc. |

As far as I know, these hacks don't affect a place in the long term. Once a server is restarted, the place goes back to normal. However, I would still recommend that everyone saves their place to their hard drive. Just in case. |

Sorry about the double post, but I just remembered something about the exploit. I know how to do it, and I have done it before. However, it only works on unlocked bricks. Therefore, if you don't want your place exploited, lock every brick in the map. |

ya one of the places were hacked mario's final destination wus hacked by someone using a delete copy hack tool i think i dont know |

"I know how to do it, and I have done it before" Then acording to this topic, you would be a hacker then...
"However, it only works on unlocked bricks"
So it makes the place explode? o_O |

Hacking can do almost anything, if the programming allows it. Roblox is designed to forbid anyone moving locked bricks. So, not even hackers can change them, but they can change (edit, delete, etc.) anything that isn't locked. |

This is an issue we take very seriously - the most recent exploit was patched within 20 minutes of us learning about it. |

Wow, you guys fix hacks better then Xgen and StickArena |

omg its not a hack its a GLITCH |

Thank you for fixing it. I've known about it for a wihle, and pmed it to all the admins, except since they get 100's of PM's a day, it took a while for BuilderMan to finally reach it. Even then he needed another PM with more information, so rather than wait another 3-4 days for him to reach the pm, I took more drastic measures, and published that Roblox Hacking site, posting the link over the general section. Sure I was ip banned, but at least the hack was finally fixed. And there are ways around every type of ban :) |

Stick arena is fail.
the ratio of hackers to non-hackers on thare is 5:1
Hopefully roblox becomes hack free =D |

maybe the place will be normal but ppl can copy the place and I dont want ppl to get visits or anything for my creations |

As far as I know, they also fixed the exploit which allowed you to steal places. |

This was decidedly unwise. By publishing a hack for all to see the situation gets worse, not better.
As soon as we learn of an exploit we drop everything and assess the situation. Like all other game sites, we have to make a judgment call on how to respond. Do we take the entire site down until the hack is fixed? How long do we test a fix before we release it to our users?
Thankfully we were just getting ready to deploy the patch when the exploits were published. Had that not been the case then we might have been forced to take Roblox down entirely. This means nobody would have been able to play this weekend.
So, *please* continue to tell us about exploits and hacks, but do so *privately*. We greatly appreciate (and often reward) users who help us out in this way.

yeah i think someone hacked my level cause i upload stuff and save it but when i enter my lvl nothing is there O_O |
|

This usually just means that the upload failed. Try uploading again, and it should work. If not, in Roblox Studio, hit the play button. If the program freezes, check your scripts, you may have a corrupt one. |

@Eric
Is there any way that you can make a hidden script in each game to make it so that if theres any tools that do not match the saved version (random bricks or GUI's) will be removed and the location will be tracked down? |
