As Roblox moderators work to maintain a safe environment for children, many aspects of the site are moderated. Some moderated targets are the forum and game chat logs. If a player violates the conditions of use, a moderation action may be taken on the account, which may be terminated or prevented from using the website for a determined period. When a player's account is deactivated, other users are no longer able to view the user's profile, statistics, or inventory (the profile will be replaced by the message "The item you requested does not exist"), although they can still play games created by the player. Inappropriate usernames will be changed to "Content Deleted" with several numbers afterwards and the usual removal of the ability to view the profile. Similarly, inappropriate content will be replaced by "[ Content Deleted ]".
