How to Report Rule Violations

Roblox is a great community of players and developers of many ages, and we like to encourage a safe and fun environment for everyone. If you see other users breaking the rules, we have tools in place to help you report any inappropriate behavior.

Reporting a user in-experience

Use the Report Abuse feature in an experience to report the specific chat or other content that violates Roblox rules. It sends the information directly to our moderators and allows them to see what the other user is doing wrong.

Reporting violations outside of experiences

If you find users or content breaking the Roblox rules, use the Report Abuse feature located throughout the apps to report this to our moderators. There are different ways to report based on what is being reported, but anything you see can be reported.

Method 1: How to report a user in a game

The most commonly used Report Abuse feature in Roblox is the one involving reporting a player directly within a game. You may want to report someone for inappropriate chat, content, or violation while you’re playing so this option is a convenient one.

Method 2: Reporting abuse when not in a game

If you’re not currently playing but you want to report an entire game, you’ll need to use the Report Abuse link in the About page of a certain game. This means going into the Roblox main page, selecting the game, and going to its About page.
