If you're ever playing Roblox and you come across a toxic player who's bullying you or someone you know, or even a stranger in your server, it may be a good idea to report their behavior to moderators, and attempt to have them warned about their actions/words. Reported players will likely receive a warning from Roblox upon their first incident, followed by a full account ban if they continue to play inappropriately. To learn more about how to go about reporting a player, continue reading below.
How to report someone on Roblox
Players can technically be reported in three ways: by reporting them in game, reporting them from their Roblox profile, or reporting them from the Chat menu. All three of these ways are detailed below.
How to report a Roblox player in game
If you're ever playing a Roblox experience and someone begins to act out in an offensive, mean, or toxic way, you can report them in just a few simple steps:
- Click the Roblox icon in the top left corner to open the Roblox menu
- Scroll through the list of players until you see the perpetrator you're looking for
- Click the flag icon next to their name
- Select the general reason for your report from the drop-down options and then type a comment explaining why you chose to report said player
- Click Submit
Upon following these steps, your report will be completed and sent away to Roblox's moderation and safety team.

How to report a Roblox player from their profile
As you search around the Roblox website, you may come across a profile that displays inappropriate and/or offensive content, whether it's in the form of avatar clothes, or verbiage in the player's bio or username. When you find an account like this, you can report it by clicking the small red link below their About and Creations sections that says Report Abuse.
Clicking this link will take you to the official Report Abuse page where you can continue choosing the reason for the report, and then enter a custom comment explaining your reasoning.
How to report a player from the chat menu
Sending hateful, offensive, or scammy messages and comments on the internet (and especially on Roblox) has become exceptionally commonplace in the last few years, so it's important to know what to do when you get them. If you receive a direct message that you deem inappropriate for Roblox, you can report the sender immediately by opening the Settings of your chat history, clicking on the three dots by their name, and selecting Report from the drop down menu.
Then, like the other steps mentioned above, select the red Report button once more and fill out the necessary information for your claim.
What happens when someone gets reported on Roblox?
If Roblox moderators read a submitted report and deem that what was said does in fact qualify as bad behavior, the reported individual will likely receive a warning that advises them to stop said behavior. If the previously reported player continues their actions and gets reported again, they will either receive another warning, a temporary suspension, or a permanent ban, depending on the severity of their behavior.
What should I do after reporting someone?
Upon submitting a report on another player, you'll likely want to separate yourself from their negative energy and bad behavior. The easiest way to do this is by blocking them, which, like reporting, can be done in game or from the player's profile.
