Hello, and I am EraGamer. While I have been on ROBLOX for 4+ years (my main account is SouthCaroIina), the word "g a y" has been blocked. I wish for it to be uncensored. Why? Because it is not an offensive term. In fact, some of us may find it offensive that you have it blocked, as we may identify as that. I understand that some people may find it 'offensive' but, I find it offensive that you think that's an insult. What if I identify as g a y? You're going to tell me I can't tell people that? People can't use "g a y" as an insult, as it isn't. It's no different than me going to a g a y person and saying "You look straight" or "You act straight". So what? Why don't you block the word straight too, then? Comment "Signed" below to show your support. - Signed, EraGamer

They don't revoke updates unless it ruins the Roblox vibe/web. They wont revoke a simple word. Sorry no support

I am sorry but I disagree. ROBLOX did not censor it because it is offensive or bad or to insult ga ys. It is censored because most people use it inappropriately rather than appropriately to bully others. If they were to uncensor that word then someone could end their life. It is kind of different when you say "You look straight" or "You act straight" because being straight is not hated. I wish that people did not hate ga ys so we could use that word but I do not want to see childish people using that word as an insult. My apologies if I have said something wrong, Ellegant

@BunnyCyborg I read the posts. The posts were meaningless and made senseless arguments, thus I ignored them.

I highly doubt ROBLOX will be blocking the word "straight" in the future. No one is using that word to offend/bully others.

@BunnyCyborg I'm getting really tired of practically copy-pasting the same arguments because you morons can't get things through your thick skulls. You have no sensible arguments, or as you like to put it "proof," as to why they should remained filtered as well.

Sorry but I agree with Ellagant more. On the other hand Bunny's post was more of a copy and paste action rather than an actual post with some meaning regarding this topic.

The censor censored my old ROBLOX name! It also did it to some sizes. Like, 75% of em' This is because ROBLOX is run 80% by robots. The 20% is the ROBLOX twitter, twitch, ect.
