These are just two suggestions to the roblox company. I would advise you would at least read one section before posting.
Okay, so I'm sure you've all heard of the banning of LOLCaptions, arguementally the best game on roblox. That was, aside from profanity, banned for real life pictures.
Now, I've played this game plenty of times, and I've seen the pictures. They really aren't that BAD! How could you report a game for real life pictures when they weren't even harassing anyone in paticular or disobeying the rules?!
But that's not what I'm getting at. I see about 60% of all ads having real life pictures in them, and they NEVER get reported. I've never seen a single one get banned. Coincidence? I think not.
THIS is what I'm getting at.
If we can have real life pictures on our advertisements, then we should be able to have them on our games. Just cause the pictures are on a game rather than an advertisement, it doesn't change anything on it! Plus, real life pictures in games could allow us to be a lot more creative in building, and make so many more games.
In other news...
Profanity, profanity, PROFANITY. Everyone has used it or is going to use it at least once in their lifetime. Profanity means to swear, or cuss. Now, I'm not saying it should be okay to swear on roblox, but seriously, if we put every charactor in a censor, in my opinion, that doesn't really count as swearing. It doesn't teach the little kids how to cuss and it shows the older kids that we are cussing, and they probably will know what the word is.
Only difference is that we're not actually physically SAYING the word.
So what should we do? I say we should not be able to report someone is they censor the word, or use stars. A star, for those of you who don't know, looks like this:*. However, we should be able to report people if they use @ or $ or any other symbol that resembles a letter, because they actually could be spelling out the swear with those symbols.
Thank you for reading this thread, and you may now discuss. |

LOLcaptions got banned for the fact that people could say bad things without it being detected by a filter.
Perhaps for bad pics as well, I dunno. |

@delta
Yeah, that's kinda why I said ASIDE FROM PROFANITY. |

On the decal topic we are alould to upload real pictures but they dont want them to include possible pictures of you just because of angry parents. But if you upload a picture of a guy with a mustache its probably not you so they let it by.
On the profanity topic if you just go **&(^&^&*&(*&*&**^&^&^ its ok but if you can tell what word is from the amount of stars and position in the sentence its the same as just saying the word. |

You never mentioned that part, all you said was that if they used those characters, they should be reported. |

@dolphin
Thank you so much for kindly spamming up much of the thread when you could've just said "I disagree" and why.
THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH. |

"You never mentioned that part, all you said was that if they used those characters, they should be reported."
I was hoping that people weren't that stupid to overthink that possibility. |

Just because you were shortsighted enough to leave out the fact that it would only be if they used them to spell out curse words and someone notices that, does not mean they are an idiot. |
|

So in other words. i could curse all i want with stars and get aaway with it? For shame for shame. Why else use stars? For fun? nope, its used for cursing on a virtual game. |
