#Do something about the spectacular amount of stolen Roblox-thumbnails on the Play menu!

ofc bro
To get back on topic has there been any tickets that have been acted on yet
I'm probably going to go on a prowl soon looking for offenders and submitting tickets all over the place
Gotta be honest (at least imo) the only reason any of this is happening is because RRS is a thing. People rack up subs in order to get it and start spamming these trashy rooms with little to no effort. They can throw in a bunch of sketchfab models and transactions and call it a day. RRS allows these people to crank out these rooms faster and faster and get more and more tokens from 4 y/o’s. In my opinion if you are going to get Rec Room studio, Rec Room should do a background check on your account. It will limit the amount of people to get rrs and it will let smaller creators who don’t have a ton of subs and don’t make roblox rooms to use it as well.
remember when RRS did do this and no one made low quality RRS games
and then they added autoaccess
Ah the good days
Alas we are all doomed to suffer the fate of rec room as we go down with the ship
-Barack Obama
Thanks Barack
Studio isnt the problem, only the people who abuse it
-The guy who has been in early access without publishing a single map since
I have yet to see someone with early access abuse it, only users with auto access
I mean A player has early access, but for the most part your right
ew gross wtf
I take what I said back, I've now seen a player who has abused it several times without consequences
i can't even wear it
how does this remotely relate to bad thumbnails
the messages were deleted, now this looks odd
Update your game for better thumbnails!!! (Joke)
I think they just give it to people with a lot of subs which is how A player got it
my issue with this is that someone could be genuinely wanting to make a fantastic game with rrs but in order to get it they would have to prove themselves by making a whole resume
but it's honestly better than what we have now
Well still even with the system we have now lots of people who want to make rrs games don’t have rrs even with how easy it is to get
yeah real
But imo games that are 90% rrs are kinda bad.
majority of rooms tagged with rrs does not even use rrs
Rec room and the maker pen have their own charm and a ton of rrs assets tend to loose the rec room feel
they just use it for thumbnails
its very lazy, its always the clicker rooms
almost had me start a hour long tangent about clicker rooms
but, we need to stay on topic
the clicker games can wait
a person with 10k subs got really defensive when i asked what about their room is rrs
they said "idk i didn't made this" they were a co owner lol
then they called me a random and banned me
Hi, @inland crow!
It looks like this post might be about bans.
For all matters ban-related, you can find more info here: https://recroom.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/sections/4419815401239-Appealing-Bans-Other-Restrictions
Rec Room does not discuss bans publicly, nor will anyone on the Rec Room Discord be able to help with ban appeals.
I have a lot to say, but like I said, thumbnails 🌚
ill save it for #building
Uh oh

anyways I'm gonna go look for offending rooms now and compile a hitlist for ticket submissions
tell you the results when I'm done
already found a game redacted is involved in that's crazy
is taking a "use only" invention as a paid item in your game that pays higher than the original invention while doing nothing to add or relate to the theme of your game a CCOC violation?
if not, then it should be
please
lemme dm you the one that I've sent here twice if you haven't already downloaded it
To my knowledge atleast 1 person made a ticket about it and they haven't gotten any output from rec room
No. There’s an option to turn off keying an invention that the invention creator can set. Outside of that, if someone didn’t want their content being keyed or monetized, often without credit, they should not have published to the invention store.
The invention store still provides no messaging about this, though. Lots of issues regarding messaging and creation on the platform but that deserves its own thread.
Wait... Why are you protecting them?
Protecting who? People who use inventions?
this is derailing the thread again. if you have an issue with what im saying dm me. these users know what they are doing wrong and the issue is not because they are keying inventions.
Ok but, to summarize what you said, you said that, creators should not upload to the invention store because of scummy players?
Why would the invention store even exist at that point
no thats an entirely different sentence
yes, publishing to the invention store means that you accept that anyone can use your work for any reason.
the only granularity is the can key/cant key toggle. players need to know more - most asset stores have licenses for this reason, rec room does not. in either case this is not a users fault, its RR's problem to fix.
real
anyways I submitted 7 tickets yesterday and plan to look for more
70-80% of the rooms I checked had yk involved
it really is just the same people making the same game
I always thought that was an exaggeration but it's true
holy hell the people weren't lying
wtf is the new tab
already found a "sus" room
any input from rec room support?
all 7 tickets got automated emails yesterday saying that it's in their queue
thx for asking tho, im gonna do more tickets today
Bro this is like commiting mass murder and the police only do something about it if people email them
at which point the murderer gets away
in this case, the person who cloned/stole the room gets their room rewards money and all the other tokens they got from putting 50 keys in the room
At which point they only get punished by the room being taken down, but they already earned their money
FUCK THIS GAME
There is nothing we can do
I'M FUCKING DONE WITH THIS GAME
....
I can see why
good thing I never became a creator
would of become the worst mistake of my life
WE'VE BEEN PROMISED THAT SOMETHING WOULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS OVER A YEAR AGO
IT'S STILL FUCKING "Please go to our help center website and submit a ticket"
IF THIS IS THEM DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS THEN I'M GONNA START DOING SHIT LIKE THIS
or quit all together, alternative choice
what choice will rec room have if the creative community is built up of shitty game creators
we don't
rec room will
the further they dig themselves down the more creators give up on everything
it is
our only voice is Star Centurion, but he's the one that promised this, over a year ago
anyways I'm gonna stand by while yall complain further
I'm gonna go eat radon
its always gonna be like that
it would be like going to the police station
How can i talk with rec room staff I’m getting several bans
i got bans 4 days this week
For nothing
@willow reef
why is everyon using this thread as a dm
Coming from ChapGtp5.
A ticket won't get you anywhere
they might recommend a ticket
you're out of luck
Where can i have a ticket
i don’t know to much about discord
that doesn't really explain how you got here
you wont get a response for a week, or ever
takes 3 days for them to respond
if it takes longer then send in another
they got hundreds of these coming in
@astral matrix
it's taken them a week for one of mine
the chances of it getting looked at would go higher if its in an actual email format
i feel like a lot of tickets that go in is just “this person bad ban them”
making it look more professional would prolly help
or maybe im just insane and it doesnt
i mean it would sound better
imagine if the support team wrote it like “thx for the ticket we’ll prolly look into it”
i wish they would
This game doesn’t care about players
They bannd people they don’t deserve it
And they allowed people they don’t deserve it
it is not your business how i get here
Yeah they really gatta do something about this, like what is this
is it so difficult to be original
I went to see the photos in the room in like 4 of them, it's exactly the same game, same chests, same layout, same blocky hill borders, and cant forget the gambling
I will never understand how anyone could be proud of themselves for making games like that…
well these rooms arent exactly passion projects
i doubt the creators feel anything at all
theyre proud of the money theyre making maybe
just sent in a ticket asking how these creators receive punishment so hopefully thatll be a good answer
20 years from now they are going to be laying in bed remembering all this and dying of cringe
damn they dying at 30
yeah, the type of people who make games like those are the ones who see games not as a form of art, but as another profitable form of content that can be mass produced for maximum profit
that's why the same creators make like 20 of those rooms each
that's also why they do every form of promotion under the sun
from the mild to the scummy
Just got finished reading his captions + comments. He's making really basic points about things we've all heard and said a million times there's nothing new to really read or ponder about. Regardless I do agree with it and don't blame him for leaving.
And the room he referred to is def scummy if what he's saying is true
Shouldn’t have gotten his map stolen but it seems like people have an argument against him. Does anyone know if the clone was a single map or has it already been distributed everywhere
Moderation team doing their finest
It's almost as if a ticket has been made, maybe even 2
mom wake up chapgtp5 sent something
what is it now
oh
ironic how they hire hundreds of mods to make sure people don't slander bad people. (And also moderate things ofc)
but they can't hire more people to review tickets, or enforce rules
was the the new thumbnail policy just to supposed to scare the creators into changing their thumbnails or something?
seems like it
that got me thinking
why don't they let the moderators do this?
didn't you mention a rec room mafia or some shit
big creators paying devs or mods to protect them
yes
yes
handling things professionally does a lot more wonders than just gathering people to do worse
we've gotten way past handling things professionally
in a bad way
then expect nothing to be done
wtf are u sayin
I don't think you have been professional
It should be safe to assume people were professional at the start of all this
Create Support Ticket
Hey can something please be done about this maybe not so cool thing? People should make their own thumbnails, maybe thumbnails shouldn't just be random imported images. Best regards -123456789
No response
or
Corporate response being completely irrelevant to the support ticket
yeah I've seen this happen
I understand they gotta go through thousands of tickets
definitely not
but maybe don't assume someone got their room stolen or their co owner removed
and then dispute it as a co owner discussion or some shit
people gotta constantly be told to not show names and they still do
when they say to not witch hunt theyre literally tryna help you by not weakening the report by being unprofessional
sending in a ticket is your best chance of any action happening
what option do we have
pffft
I'm done with this
lets open up the option book so you got 1. report the room through tickets 2. bring awareness to the rooms without showing names or 3. find a better game
since they dont want to take action, why bother if thats ur stance
its an unfair world out there, cant make it more unfair by making reporting these rooms worse by being a poopface head
shit
@ionic stirrup
It's cool to have your voice heard and stand up for what you believe in, but try to stick to the rules when you do it. We get where you're coming from and might even agree with you, but we've still got to do our job and enforce the rules. It's awesome to see you all speaking out about important stuff. Keep sharing your thoughts, just don’t break the rules and try not to get your voice removed in the in the process. Things move slow in the corporate world. Results don’t happen instantly.
None of the players who have had their rooms delisted in my tickets seem to have been given bans/moderation action for any significant period of time.
This includes junior tagged rooms that had nude costumes +seats on beds and 200k views.
This includes folks who had multiple tickets filed and multiple rooms delisted.
These folks are still publishing republished garbage every week, or worse. The top rec.net image atm actually talks about this.
We are getting into holidays so its unlikely we'll see any significant changes for another month or 2. After that maybe I'll try and create some youtube video content on this issue.
Rec Room for ya
I reckon by next year they're gonna make a new rule saying your room cannot have 70 foreign inventions and 25 keys.
But they're not gonna enforce it
cuz this shit makes them money
When a rule exists, results shouldn't happen instantly, but should happen within a day
Is a rule even a rule if the only people who enforce the rule are the people who have to follow the rules?
Why can't they let Moderators enforce the creator code of conduct?
Like you said
If there's no one exploting people for tokens by attracting a large young audience. How will rec room make their big bucks?
look It's the 2 friends again
?
they're talking about how every time you say something here, I'm here
no lol every time we find some crazy shit we send it to eachother and the other get's online and get's back here
me asf
why do you to only spend your time in this thread
two
nothing interesting to talk about
lemme guess
no motivation to make anything because of the reason this thread was made
yes actually
yeah
I got a response. Out of the 8 tickets I reported in my crusade, 4 got clear action. 3 rooms got taken down and 1 room got its thumbnail removed (was a skibidi toilet game). Tomorrow I will look over the other 4 tickets and see if my evidence wasn't clear, my wording was off, or if the room just didn't break any clear rules. Regardless, I can now confidently say that tickets do something.
(the ragdoll map that showed up in the last screenshot wasn't the offender so I crossed them out)
Any input on the cloned/stolen digital circus costume rp
they cloned it again 💀
idk
If rec room wants to save money they would do something about theses cash grabs
nah im sure they’re making rr plenty of money
if cash grabs stay up rec room makes money yes but will most likely lose its players in a matter of years, whereas if proper action was taken and rules were diligently enforced, people would be incentivized to make better games, which would bring in new players, meaning more money
All of this is on paper ofc lol but that's how I imagined the dice would roll
It also doesnt help that the new Room Rewards system rewards monetization/engagement instead of quality
idk anything about these new room rewards complaints
I heard that’s why they changed room rewards bc they’re not getting enough money
It feels like the building community and circuiteers make up like 10% of rec room
If they leave nothing will change except the quality of games coming out
Most if not all of the new players are young people who look forward to these game. Even saw one in the recnet comments of an awful game creator
It would be hilarious if we just all drop everything and quit at once lmao
yeah
it’s what I did lol I just come back sometimes to talk to friends n stuff
someone comes in and says something interesting and we go on tangents
🤷♂️
womp womp
I’ll like to say this thread is about Roblox thumbnails, not inappropriate ones. I’m not saying that the inappropriate thumbnails are okay, as I’ve already went ahead and reported the room. I’ll also be removing your post as it can cause witch hunting
These 2 rooms are exactly the same
It doesn't show the full name so you wouldn't know what it's called
So it's not witch hunting
It's still getting removed
I'd like to add to this, the clone has been up for nearly a month and will probably win the creators room rewards 🙂 👍
rec room moderation team doing their part making sure we don't slander these people
meanwhile the support team is just not alive or something
They’re the same when you enter the room?
I look at the photos in the rooms and it looks like they're the same room but with some overpriced keys and a different thumbnail
real
@astral matrix Didn't you get someone to make a ticket for this? What did it yield cuz If it's still up then the ticketer must have been rude
They sent me screenshots and it looks like it will "yield" something but it has taken nearly a month
first real response was a week later saying they have to forward it to their room rewards team 💀
another week later they asked how long it will take to take action, they responded within 5 minutes and said they are still looking into it
That sounds quite preposterous
🤓
For me it's always taken them at most 2 weeks to take action
