Filters are made to blot out such words with hashtags (#) because Roblox is a game targeted to a young audience so they are not exposed to such words.

A problem with the filter is that it censors words for no reason. This could be to being possibly an insult, or Roblox having a pattern to decide which word is censored or not. But some words can be manually censored, like bed which was censored for a while. Some words are censored because it is just scummy. Like the phrase "Free Robux". It is censored because it is a phrased used by scammers to mislead children into losing their accounts. Now another thing I hear many people complain about, which is Roblox censoring numbers; This is not entirely Roblox's fault, as some numbers had to be censored because it is their concern that children might leak their phone numbers to pedoes. I think thats all you need to know. Now I think the filter overall is just getting there, and will probably improve in the near future. Roblox has a large potential.

Why I think that is that the 13- filter is too harsh and the 13+ filter is too "loose". In the 13+ filter, it is not hard as all to bypass words. The only word that is completely bypass-proof is the F word. I think that gives you a brief summary of the filter.
