Roblox players often encounter an issue where their chat messages are tagged with hashtags, making communication difficult. Read on to learn more about server issues, chat filters, and age restrictions in Roblox.

Here's what you need to know:

What Is Roblox Tagging?

Roblox tagging occurs when the characters you type in the chat are replaced with hashtags (e.g., "#####"). This is a form of text filtering implemented by Roblox to protect users, especially younger players, from inappropriate content. However, this system can sometimes malfunction, causing all messages to be tagged.

Why Is Roblox Tagging Everything I’m Saying?

Server Issues

One common reason for widespread tagging is server disruptions. For instance, in July 2024, a "partial server disruption" caused all chat messages to be filtered into tags. During such outages, the chat filter may glitch, censoring everything you type. Always check Roblox's server status to see if there are ongoing issues.

Chat Restrictions

If server issues are not the cause, the tagging might be due to chat restrictions. Roblox filters out expletives, offensive language, and other sensitive material. If you attempt to send such messages, they will appear as hashtags. Try sending a neutral message like "hello" to see if the issue persists.

Age Restrictions

Roblox applies stricter chat filters for accounts set to ages 12 and under. This is to prevent exposure to potentially inappropriate content. If your account is marked as underage, most of your messages will be tagged. Accounts for users aged 13 and above have fewer restrictions, but some filtering still applies.
