You're mad. Swearing is against the rules and I will report people I see doing it.

Support, definitely. The way the filtering works at the moment is terrible.

Support. Quite frankly if the filtering system wasn't so god forsakenly bad I wouldn't support this. But as it is, its horrible. I'll be playing a game with some friends, and the game has a bounty system. I'd be at the "Bounty Board" looking for people to hunt down, and I'd try to say their name to my friends. Andddd it comes out hashtagged. For whatever reason, their name can be "fluffymuffins" and It'd hashtag it. Idk if this is happening to anyone else, but it sure is for me. And no, I am not under 13, so this isn't the safe chat thing. Its merely Roblox having a bad censoring system. Recently i've seen a game get taken down for having a custom chat that was "not filtered properly". And trust me, it was filtered PROPERLY. Well, it had a different filtering system than Roblox. But swear words were censored. And for some reason, Roblox took it down. If you're interested on knowing what this game is. Its Tokyo Ghoul Online. Yes, it has a minimal amount of players online, and that's the result of it being taken down due to the chat filter thing. It used to have like 300 players on at any given time, yet now it barely breaks 10. I know that it got taken down due to not having a good enough chat filter because Ryukiyo, the creator, posted a screenshot of it on Twitter. In short: Roblox's filtering system sucks. ~~ Insert kewl sig here ~~

I support this, but I doubt any of the problems will go away. It's been so long and the problem is worse than it has ever been!

They already lost their TRUSTe I think. I don't see it anywhere on the website rn.

I support this idea fully. When I started playing towards the end of 2013, many sources, including the ROBLOX support site, said that the chat filter was disabled. I decided that playing at the age of 12 that I could up my age one year to bypass the filter. Didn't happen. If anything, it gets worse with time. The policy needs to be greatly relaxed to cater for everyone. Swearing and offensive terms (e.g homophobic or trans phobic phrases) should be censored. When it comes to names like "John" or "Smith", or even most letters on their own, this is an overreaction and needs to be treated instantly. The thing that we all need to understand is that ROBLOX won't listen to us no matter what we do. The game will lose popularity and fail as a global company. I understand that their new "Sift" program is still in development stages and will of course have bugs, but shutting games down because they have "bypasses" (which are game changing features) is silly and childish. But let's be honest, are the developers ever going to fix major bugs which have been in the game for years? NO! They will focus on the things no-one has ever paid any attention to anything the community says to support them and give new ideas. And yes, hashtags are ugly. To see whole lines of text removed from the chat is a real eyesore. To be honest, eyesore is an understatement. I'd say the tags are too obvious, take up too much space, and clearly represent that they are obstructing something.

Almost all the people that are disagreeing with this are the ones that didn't read the entire thing. Support.

Adequate solution. Nothing too irrational or drastic (like what CloneTrooper suggested to front-page games awhile ago.. mentioning an entire algorithm for it) I support this, but knowing ROBLOX they are going to consider this carefully (if it harbors enough support in the first place, of course) @BHAT.H

I know, right? They make it as good as impossible to talk.

Much support from an S&I Mini Mod... Judge me, I judge you. Simple.
