Yes, sometimes but considering how many reports come in and the fact that the roblox moderation team is very small means that they cant go through every report.

Rarely any bullying or other small.

BUT I CAN guarantee, inappropriate games are banned, and botted.

I tested this out, reported, then favorite. I reported 3 condos all where banned. I reported 5 botted, 4 where banned, 1 games removed the bots.

It is NOT an auto clicker, this mainly came from critics, saying this makes you a target for criticism, because you watch a critics video, nothing else, makes you an 'expert'.

The short answer to your question could be no, but it's actually more complicatec than that.

The reality of reporting a player is that they can't run background checks on accounts. For example, if you see someone in meepcity do something inappropriate, their avatar is an obvious way of seeing this as true. However, the person is roleplaying and their true avatar on Roblox itself looks innocent.

Basically, Roblox reports are overlooked and usually don't work in terms of trying to get someone banned.

Not all of the time unfortunately. Lots of the admins don't bother looking at actually important reports. That is why there are so many inappropriate and explicit content on the site.

Roblox reports do work. I sent them an email one time about a person breaking the rules, (their email is info@roblox.com) and some of the words said:

"We want everyone to enjoy their experience on Roblox. We have moderators online around the clock reviewing reports and helping to keep Roblox fun and safe for all players. Remember, even though you cannot see if an account is moderated, our team does take action against accounts caught violating the Terms of Use and Community Rules.

Moreover, we understand that you might feel that nothing has been done. However, that's not the case. Once you use the 'Report Abuse' option a ticket is generate and may take a few minutes to reach one of our live moderation agents. ROBLOX moderators are a team of employees who work diligently around the clock to review and apply appropriate consequences when necessary."

Furthermore, it may take some time for them to check the reports to make sure that they are accurate. They need to check the chat log, and other things to insure the reports are true. When you report someone, it does not mean that they will be banned automatically.

Thousands of roblox reports are sent everyday and even more are false reports just to get a user banned.

Mostly it does work, it doesn't have that many staff, and they aren't perfect. The reason why people call it, cause there's a thing called Fast Track, if you get many reports right, you get added, and your reports will now get review first.

There are experiments from Youtube that test the reports. So far, nothing they did that was bad had ramifications. As Hidoba T. Said, it's an auto clicker.
