![]() It wasn’t his fault he lost his items, he didn’t click any links etc etc, they found creative ways to gain control of his account P.S: I’ve seen users (don’t want to mention usernames) on LMaD that lost all there multiple millions of RAP several times, and each time got an restore Normally this causes players to be more wary of situtations, obviously not everyone, but some Ok you lost your items but you could have prevented it, this is your one and ONLY restore! The purpose for the whole ‘one time restore’ is to educate the user That said, I don’t know if I support this idea entirely - having your account breached should be a one-time thing that you learn from so it doesn’t happen again. So while we should definitely continue pushing the account safety education agenda, it’s important to realize that we can’t educate users on everything. ![]() Many of them impersonate staff members and developers. More than half of the Roblox-related extensions in the Chrome store are malicious. ![]() Now it’s Chrome extensions and phishing sites. It used to be cookie theft and keyloggers. I agree that users need to be more careful with their accounts - but the fact of the matter is that there’s a huge amount of account scamming throughout Roblox. Educating children in account safety five times is redundant - many won’t even read it the first time. Unique passwords are hugely It’d be nice if we could somehow keep everyone’s accounts safe despite their own account safety ignorance, but that’s not realistic. They look up your username or email and find your password, and since you used it for multiple websites, they get into whatever they want. Suddenly, your information is in a large database used by malicious people to get into accounts. If you do that, your master password for everything is exposed just by one website’s database being breached. It sounds like, in your case, you used the same password for multiple websites and services. It’d be nice if the policies could be rewritten, but I can see how it could be abused. The fact that the user who had stolen my stuff had been permanently deleted was probably a good indication that it wasn’t my fault, but sometimes what can you do. So somehow, someone had got into my account, bought BC for my account (3 months worth), and then ran off scot-free. I was told next time to just be more careful, don’t download suspicious programs, and have 2FA.ĢFA wasn’t a thing on ROBLOX when I had been playing, and since I hadn’t been playing in a decent chunk of time either, I hadn’t downloaded anything that could link me back to my ROBLOX account. The account they had been transferred to was deleted, and I was unable to get my items back. Albeit it was only about 20k worth of stuff, but to me that’s still quite a decent chunk of cash to be gone. I have stuff scammed from my account, from something I didn’t realise was a thing, so I lost items and ROBLOX were kind enough to restore them.įorward about a year from me taking a long hiatus from ROBLOX, I realise my account has membership and all my items had been stolen. Instead of having a hard limit of one restoration, limiting the restoration to 1 per a decided ‘X’ years would make the limit’s application more accurate. An interval that’s this long could legitimately be the person losing their account to misfortune both times, rather than any major fault of their own. The interval between the two breaches has been so long that the purpose behind the limitation doesn’t really apply to the account anymore. Someone who may have gotten their account broken into due to a weak password back in 2008 may have their account broken into again in 2018, and they would be ineligible for item restores, assuming they used it for the first breach. We have accounts at or approaching 10 years since they were created, and that’s a lot of opportunity for their accounts to be breached more than once. This policy is becoming dated as time goes on though. ![]() They only do this once, however – I understand the reasoning and don’t disagree with it. Customer Service currently has a nice policy where if you’re unfortunate enough to have your account broken into, they’ll restore your items for you.
