The People Brower

A ROBLOX update for the purpose of helping to stop Private Message spammers (People who would send you spam messages saying things like "join mah group plz") was brought out to stop a list of people showing. This has extremely helped stop spam messages, however, active forumers and people with lots of friends or a popular place are still susceptible to this.

At the top of the page is a search bar. Type in a name or phrase that you want to find and hit "Search Users" or "Search Groups". It will give you every player or group with that phrase in their name or profile.
