Dislike Botting

Bug Reports Roblox Website Bugs

Ever since my game, Stop it, Slender!, was released nearly 2 years ago (I think), it had only gained ~5K dislikes up until a week or two ago. In the past 2 weeks or so it’s gained 1.6K dislikes from seemingly nothing. To my knowledge there are no current bugs in the game that would cause such a spike in dislikes. Only explanation I can make is bots.

This is probably going to thought of as no differently from the rest of the “add captchas (or SOME other deterrent)” threads, but it’s a real issue. My game has dropped nearly completely off Top Rated, the section I most rely on. With like botting patched, exploiters are just going to start doing the alternative - dislike botting, and it’s only going to continue until something is actually done about it.

Preach it!

It ought to be as simple as applying the Like bot detection system to Dislikes and removing offending accounts’ ratings if botting is detected.

Hopefully the staff will address the issue, as this certainly won’t be the last instance of dislike botting.

I was actually just in your game, and while I was playing as slender I tried catching a player which resulted in me getting frozen and the player just running away. It happened every time i tried catching players and made it nearly impossible to win as the slender. Not sure if you’ve fixed that yet or not, but it was enough to make me rage quit. This was last week sometime.

Xbox games get a huge number of votes because of the voting achievement. I don’t think it’s bots.

This has been fixed since then, was only a thing for 2-3 days due to an update bug.

XBox users must have some high standards in that case, the game always did fine on PC.

It seems to be raising again on Top Rated, and the dislikes aren’t coming in as rapidly as they were last week (nearly 200/day). All the sudden increases and decreases just feels like bots. And it’s not like they aren’t a current issue elsewhere.

I think the problem is more general than just your game, e.g.:

The rates of the XBOX version are really poor overall, I can imagine more games on it get a ton of dislikes as well.

Edit: to be fair there are only ~20 reviews on there yet, but you get the picture

I think a lot of poor reviews are biased, or from previous roblox users from 2009 that think roblox is still really bad.

I can conclude from reading the reviews (one even spoke of their child when their spelling equals to that of a 6 year old) that most to almost all of them are just trolling or just using their fingers instead of their brains when thinking of reviewing Roblox.
