If you want to get a unique icon for yourself, we suggest learning as much as possible about Roblox and becoming a staff member. You can also become a YouTube celebrity! Otherwise, go for a Premium subscription and have something to show off to other players.

Icons/Symbols Found Outside of a Roblox Game

While outside a Roblox game, a few icons will help you quickly know what your friends are up to. These icons show up in a colored circle on their profile status:

user is online

– Indicates a user is online

user is currently developing their own game

 – Indicates the user is currently developing their own game

user is playing a game

 – Indicates the user is playing a game

Offline users won’t have anything next to their profile.

What Is Roblox Premium?

Premium membership for Roblox grants you a monthly Robux allowance and gives you a 10% bonus when buying any additional Robux.

You’re also granted access to the trading and selling features, allowing you to earn more money from the games and items you make in-game!

All Premium members will have the icon mentioned above (), so you’ll notice them immediately. If you want to have the icon yourself, the only way is to purchase a Premium membership.

In-Game Friend Requests

While playing a game, you may find a player you want to befriend. Leaving the game is unnecessary if you want to add someone to your “Friends” list. Click on their name on the leaderboard and press “Send Friend Request.”

If you want to Follow or Unfollow someone, choose those options from the same menu. This way, you don’t have to stop playing the game to expand or compress your social circle. That can be a real time-saver.

If another player decides to send you a friend request, a message will pop up in the bottom right of the screen. You can accept or reject it there. You can also click on their name on the player list and accept or decline from that menu.

Blocking or Reporting Players

If someone is harassing you or breaking game rules, you can block them or report them to the Roblox moderators inside the game. Click on their name in the player list and select the option you need.

If you’re unsure if someone is breaking the rules, you can check the Community Rules to ensure you’re up-to-date.
