My son plays Roblox and this is definitely a big issue. I basically had to turn off his filter so he could play the game. Otherwise, the chat looks like this:

Player1: "Can you promote me?" Player1: "Did you see that?"

Player2: "Yeah, just send me a message" Player2: "Did you see that?"

Player1: "Thanks!" Player1: "Did you see that?"

Pretty frustrating, even for a parent. Seems like their filtering technology is just a total piece of junk.

What happens when you turn it off? Does that mean your child can say anything and receive anything from another user? Or is the incoming chat still filtered?
