A glitch is a fault in a software which produces an unexpected result, usually from errors in scripting. Like any video game, Roblox has a handful of glitches. While some glitches are harmless, short-lived, and sometimes even entertaining, some can occur for a long time, break functionality, and even harm the software (usually known as bugs).

This article lists only glitches that occur within the Roblox website and software, not within individual Roblox games.

Remaining glitches

Fixed glitches

No delete button

In June 2010, the delete button was removed. If anyone took something from an item, the player could not delete it. They could get as many items as they wanted but it still won't show up the button to delete it. Players who have an item before this will show up the delete button. This has been fixed now and players who bought a hat during this issue will now show its delete button.

TBC visual glitch

On January 21, 2019, every player with any level of Builders Club had a Turbo Builders Club icon on their profile and in-game. Many users resorted to the unofficial Roblox Discord server and questioned this. An administrator made an announcement that it was just a visual glitch and everyone kept their real membership. The glitch was completely fixed the next day.

Friends glitch or friend request glitch

On December 31, 2013, there was a rare glitch on Roblox where users noticed that their friend request got accepted 3 or 4 times. When they checked their friends list, they noticed that their friend had the same avatar and username. This was fixed quickly.

Sky death glitch

Around 2015 and 2017, there was a glitch where if one were still on forcefield and fell to the bottom of the sky where around the point the player die, they could somehow walk on the bottom, however in 10 seconds the body could perish, it was fixed on late 2017.

Hat giveouts

A user named Nikayah created an exploit in which one of the hats, such as the Riddling Skull, was given out to over 1,000 users. Roblox has banned him and was unbanned with another exploit in early 2009. xSCENEx has also done this by giving the Teapot Turret to himself.

No torso glitch

This happened on December 15, 2010. This glitch allowed the player's avatar to have no torso. It didn't cause any problems with Roblox. Their torso would be there if they joined a game. This was fixed and all players were updated back to normal on the 16th.

Gear down glitch

This glitch was only up for a few hours before it got patched. This glitch prevented the player's avatar to move its arm in the proper location while holding a gear, and the avatar thumbnail would appear with the player's hand down.

Infinite daily Robux glitch

The infinite robux daily glitch was only for BC members, it started in around 2011, users would change their time on IOS, Android, or PC, the time would be set to a future time like 2021 or 2020, then if the user was lucky enough, they were able to get thousands of Robux without waiting all year, the glitch however may not be patched still but players who did the trick were terminated. This glitch can no longer be done as Builders Club has been replaced by Premium.

Double gear

The double gear glitch allowed users to drop one gear; there were multiple ways to do this, but the most well known one is for when you select another gear while walking over a dropped gear, allowing a player hold two gears at once. This was once possible on the main Roblox site as well, it occurred if one did the multiple hat glitch but with gears instead. It occurred with the Trophy of Participation 2016 where if someone were wearing it before it was switched from being a hat accessory to gear while wearing another gear it would appear as if they were wearing two gears on their profile, this is not possible to repeat and once they updated their character after this occurred, it would take off one of the gears.

In-gear glitch

On 2015, a gear glitch happened in Welcome to Roblox Building, where if the player uses the "Add Object" tool and they use Cheat Engine and copies the ID in, if they reset or drop the tool they were holding, the gear would appear in the "Add Object" tool. Later, Roblox closed down the game due to this glitch and it was later fixed.

Egg-jump

This glitch got patched when removing hats got removed. A player wearing an egg hat could press '=' on the keyboard to remove the hat. Once the egg landed the user was able to jump on the egg and 'super jump.'

Chat bubble

When a player chat most of the time, their screen would be white on and off for a couple of seconds due to the chat bubble filling the screen and flashing on and off for a couple of seconds, this happened across most games, being very annoying for players that roleplay or chat very often due to this constantly happening.

Camera error

In 2017, some users got an error with the camera not following the character in Roblox Studio. It had been stuck in one place and won't be even able to move the character. This glitch is now fixed, however in some old abandoned games, this glitch is still common, except people can move their character.

Zoomed-out profile camera glitch

If one wore some items on the Avatar page, their camera could have been ultimately zoomed out.

Wearing unavailable body colors

Back before the character/avatar page was updated, there used to be a method with inspect element of changing the avatar's body colors to ones that did not show up on the body color list such as the color Crimson. It would require filling in the ID and name of the brick color from the official Roblox Wiki/Developer Hub platform. Unfortunately once the character page update was set in this became impossible to do anymore, there are still many users wearing these unavailable body colors on their characters. Avatars with these colors could also not be saved as outfits.

Outfit copycat glitch

Between 2016 and 2018, there was a glitch where if you loaded in game next to a player, there will be a chance you would be wearing the same outfit as the other player. Sometimes the player may wear your outfit. The glitch was common in MeepCity, Get Eaten, lesser known RPG games, and games with discontinued scripting. This Glitch still happens sometimes, only that it happens to other players when your game hasn't loaded player textures for others yet.

Edge-jumping

If a user stands near an edge and then jumps, the player will go flying away from the edge and possibly result in a death. This is due to the in-game physics. It also occurs when you walk into a corner at the right angle. This glitch has been fixed.

February 17, 2016 glitches

On February 17, 2016, an unknown bug in the Roblox system made tons of users spawn with no packages, no hats, no animations, and some had also reported spawning as a noob. This glitch was patched hours later. However, on February ?? 2022, the year of which Roblox had a lot of maintenances, this glitch has started occurring for a short time again. It has then once again, been patched since then.

Username glitch

On December 6, 2016, a glitch occurred allowing players to use the sign-up page to make an account with the same name as an existing feature, which is not intended to be possible on Roblox. This caused new players with names such as 1dev2, PlatinumFalls, and Roblox to be made. This was shortly fixed, and all accounts with usernames used by earlier accounts were terminated and had their names reset.

Player list glitch

In some servers of a game, the player list could have either been stretched out on one player's name or not just show the players. Because of this, you could not exit the game. A solution to this was that you could've exited out of the game usually pressing Alt+Tab if your keyboard supported it. This bug was only server-side, not client-side. It was patched sometime in 2020.

December 2014 model glitch

On December 9, 2014, at 7:15:29 PM, a glitch occurred that automatically updated all Roblox models made between 2006 - 2012 that had over 10k+ sales to be randomly updated. Such examples of models having this glitch is a DIY tool giver.

Small Avatar

This glitch can be activated by using certain Rthro package parts together on an R15 avatar, making the avatar much smaller than usual. This can be exploited by people, as a smaller avatar means a smaller target for players to shoot or look at, giving them the ability to hide in much smaller spots, fit in places others can't, or otherwise be harder to handle.

Lag Clipping

When you have a little space between you and the wall and you walk forward and freeze your screen by pressing right click on the white bar (Only works on Windows OS) and it can let you go through a wall. This glitch works easier on thinner walls.

Hs4/Noli Username

This will happen if you try to create an account with the username hs4.

This will happen if you try to change your username to hs4.

When you try to create an account with the username Hs4 or Noli (not case sensitive), an error message will appear. It is still unknown why Roblox is unable to accept these 2 usernames. This bug eventually lead to some myths. There was once a player called Noli. Hs4 is found to be on the Roblox testing site.

If a user tries to change their username to hs4 or Noli, the word InternalServerError in red will appear, the username will remain unchanged, and the user will not lose 1000 Robux.

This is due to a full wipe of the accounts, causing the website to bug and say An error has occurred.

Unpatchable Glitches

Chat filter bypass

Example of the chat filter glitch. Some words are censored for safety reasons.

Unfortunately, this glitch will likely never get fully fixed as there are so almost endless ways to bypass it. If the player types a swear word in a strange way, such as by replacing letters with numbers, it is possible that it will not get filtered.

Bouncing

Bouncing is a glitch that makes the player bounce off a platform upon landing. This glitch is most common in games with detailed animations and/or are often laggy. Due to this, the bug may never be patched.

Slow walk speed on slow devices

When a player moves while their device is lagging, the character moves slower. This is because of Roblox's client-side framerate being under 30 FPS, and the fact that Roblox doesn't use delta-time for client-side character movement. This is likely to happen on Android or iOS devices.

Server player limit glitch

This glitch is very old, and usually happens when many players join a game at the same time and Roblox tries to distribute the players to the same server. During this glitch, one server will hold more players than its limit, with the extra player being immediately redirected to a new server.

Leaderboard function delay

After the new leaderboard update, trying to block, friend or follow users is very delayed compared to the older leaderboard. This glitch may not be fully patched as this has been a problem for years and now it became worse.

Half Error Message

Note: This glitch is extremely rare.

There was a bug that you can't see the half of the error message, and the background is unblurred and sky instead of being blurred and gray or sky. This was positioned in the top left instead of being in the center. This glitch may not be patched. This is fixed by entering and exiting full-screen.

See this thread for more information.

Lost connection error

Sometimes when you play, you will be see everyone around suddenly hangs, and the screen will show you offline even if your connection normal, the error code is for the error is 277.
