Guest



A guest is a special user who can only access free ROBLOX games which aren't Builders Club only or paid access, and cannot access most website content without signing up for an account.

Functionality
If a player joins a game but does not register or sign in, they are labeled as a guest by default. The guest's avatar is a placeholder for players interested in a game and want to play it before creating an account. The placeholders are BillyBloxxer, BettyBloxxer and DefaultGuest.

Appearances
BillyBloxxer, BettyBloxxer and DefaultGuest are the ROBLOX guest templates. Joining in-game as a guest will load one of their character appearances. Before July 12, 2016, BillyBloxxer and BettyBloxxer had very similar appearances to the user ROBLOX. Their only difference is that Billy Bloxxer wore the Red Roblox Cap, while BettyBloxxer wore the Pinktastic Hair. The DefaultGuest doesn't have hats; merely a shirt and a gray torso.

On July 12, 2016, the appearances of the guests were changed for the first time. The male guest (BillyBloxxer) now wears the ROBLOX Jacket, the Black Jeans, and the True Blue hair. The female guest is the same except with the Lavender Updo hair. The other male guest (DefaultGuest) is still the same except he wears the ROBLOX Jacket and The Black Jeans. Later, the Default Guest changed to 2.0 package and now wearing "ROBLOX 'R' Baseball Cap" other ones just changed the package to the 2.0 models.

Its possable that scripts (example) can change guest look back to the old look

Praise and criticism
There are groups made by users that praise guests (example), and some (like Euan Bomber And Dallasthepip's No Guests Clan) are against them. Some guests are sympathised as they are viewed negatively throughout most of the ROBLOX community. Some users believe that other players use the guest feature to scam or ruin other players places, commonly known as trolling or griefing, and use the guest utility to bypass bans because guests cannot be banned from the game, which is sometimes true. Other users praise guests, supporting and helping guests in hopes of welcoming them to the community that is ROBLOX.

As many guests are users unaware of the "unofficial rules" of ROBLOX, they tend to act in a way that is considered annoying by some users. This explains the reason why many guests perform actions considered rude in many games, such as spawn killing, killing their own team members, and destroying other user's creations in free building games.

Also, guests cannot see chat or say anything themselves, as the chat bar cannot be used as a guest. Because of this, guests will not be able to see other players trying to stop them, and will continue. Some players call guests "lazy" for not creating an account, as guests are still required to install the required software in order to play any games. Administrators have stated that guests will never be removed from ROBLOX.

Gender
With the addition of new updates, both new users and guests can pick a gender for their character. Users can choose the male guest, which wears the ROBLOX Jacket, the Black Jeans, and the True Blue Hair. Users can also choose to be the female guest, which is the same as the male guest except it wears the Lavender Updo Hair. If playing without choosing your gender or playing on mobile, users will be loaded as a genderless guest (DefaultGuest).

Trivia

 * Guests are known as "The True Testers of ROBLOX" by the administrators.
 * Default Guest came on ROBLOX around December 2012 and January 2013.
 * There was a guest talk script in some games, which allowed guests to chat. The script is currently broken. If the game had a guest talk script during that time, this could be unfair as well.
 * From 2008 to 2014, guests were able to speak by using the proper Super Safe Chat words. Now, they can't as that feature has been removed, and they have to create an account to chat. Around the end of 2014, guests were reported to chat normally, which was since patched.
 * For a short time, an update was released that introduced a bug in which a user does not receive a knockout point for killing a guest, unlike the normal addition of one point for every player defeated.
 * When you open the menu and look for a guest, they will have ROBLOX's avatar look, boy or girl, but in the game, they still look like the current guests. Guests were also able to join Builders Club games. Now, guests are not linked to the ROBLOX account and are linked to Billy Bloxxer, Betty Bloxxer and Default Guest.
 * Many users create fake guest accounts (example: Guest123) and dress like guests. However, many people can identify if they are a guest or not, because users cannot leave spaces in their username and all guests have 1–4 numbers in their username.
 * Guests cannot buy items from the catalog.
 * Guests wear one hat as a male, and the Pinktastic Hair for a female.
 * In Theme Park Tycoon 2 by Den_S, guests used to be able to talk.
 * Guests used to wear a straw hat like erik.cassel did on ROBLOX.
 * When you hover the mouse over a guest image when viewing game servers, the name will appear as "A Friendly Guest".
 * Cookie editors are able to change a guest number by changing the UserID in Guest Data.
 * ROBLOX's user used to look exactly like a male guest, but without a hat.
 * When a guest checks their account age, it says their age is 0 unless the guest is online for at least a day.
 * ROBLOX stores a cookie on the user's computer that keeps their ID, meaning that ROBLOX does not have to create so many IDs.
 * A guest cannot access purchasable content in-game, as they are assigned a randomly generated ID.
 * It is possible for scripts to ban all guests from a game. This violates the terms and conditions, because it makes some guests believe that ROBLOX is a bugged game.
 * In Dued1's Work at a Pizza Place, guests are identical to the ones that can be seen in the gender choosing menu. It also has 9 different chats to choose from.
 * When playing a guest in the mobile version, the guest's appearance will load DefaultGuest's appearance.
 * A bug that occurred on February 2016 let guests send friend requests. This was patched around March or April.
 * In some games with custom chats (example), guests are able to chat.
 * It is possible to join a game as DefaultGuest by following a player into a game whilst not being logged in.
