=== April 1st 2012 hacks ===
 
On April 1, 2012, Roblox suffered site issues that caused players to get incorrect amounts of Robux. Some assets were uploaded without being reviewed by the moderators. There was a mysterious face uploaded to the catalog named Cc:. The only person who has it is user stickmasterluke. The hackers were able to access a few moderators accounts and make them say very graphic and inappropriate things. Soon after, users Pheedy and are17, both accounts under the control of DracoSwordMaster, became moderators, and used their elevated powers to unban Minish, who is a well known hacker on ROBLOX. The prices of hats in the catalog went down tremendously, and players on the site were stuck in two possible situations; one being undeservedly earning ROBUX spontaneously, and the later having their ROBUX lost. The warning banner for the top of the site would flutter in chaos, changing colors and bestowing objectionable content, examples being "thank you minish for messing up the economy. nub." and "always share your passwords with strangers, kids!" The event banners were also hacked, changed to things like "Do A Barrel Roll" and "thank you minish for messing up the economy. nub.". Items in the catalog had prices changed and renamed. The entire website was soon shut down. TheAfter the hack attack was over, people were pointing the finger at users Minish and DracoSwordMaster, who are also well known hackers on the website for the hacks. After all this activity had occurred, ROBLOX staff brought the site returnedoffline, reporting they were still attempting to normalpatch afterup the currency system. Administrators John Shedletsky and Matt Dusek had discovered a dayway orto tworegress the everything that happened, and once the entire system was restored to its previous form, all the accounts that were tampered with were permanently banned, including DracoSwordMaster, and the "c:" face was pulled from the catalog.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://blog.roblox.com/2012/04/april-1st-site-issue-and-update/ |title=Site Issues |publisher=Roblox Corporation |date=April 1, 2012 |accessdate=April 2, 2012|first = David|last = Baszucki}}</ref>
