Know what words can and can't get you banned on Roblox
Roblox recently introduced an update to allow swearing in certain 17+ games. However, this doesn't mean you can say or type anything you want without getting banned. Here's everything you need to know about using swears and cuss words in 17+ Roblox games.
Is Swearing Allowed in Roblox Games?
You can only swear in certain 17+ Experiences that have enabled strong language. Swearing can't be directed at any other user or used to bully and harass others. You can use strong language to express yourself after getting a jumpscare.
