BloxPulse covers Roblox for players, developers and the people who follow the platform closely. A lot of our readers are young, and a lot of Roblox news starts as a rumor, a leak or a screenshot. These standards explain how we decide what to publish and what we do when we get something wrong. Every writer and editor is expected to follow them, and our style guide covers how we write.
Accuracy and verification
- We go to the primary source wherever one exists: official Roblox announcements, the Developer Forum, Creator Hub documentation, company filings, or the developer or person involved.
- A claim that we can’t confirm from a primary source needs at least two independent sources before we report it as fact. Screenshots and clips are checked for editing, age and context before we use them.
- When something is unconfirmed but newsworthy, we say so plainly in the headline or the first lines of the story, and we explain what we know, what we don’t, and how we know it.
- Numbers, quotes, names and dates are checked against their source before publication.
Leaks, rumors and unreleased features
We report on leaks when they are significant and we can establish that they are genuine. We label them as leaks, and we don’t present an unreleased feature as confirmed or guaranteed to ship. We never publish exploits, working scam methods, stolen assets, private source code, or anyone’s personal information, even if they are already circulating.
Protecting young people and private individuals
- We don’t identify minors by real name, face, school or location.
- We don’t dox anyone. Usernames are only published when they are necessary to the story and the account is acting in a public capacity, such as a developer, a group owner or a creator.
- Stories about scams, harassment or child safety are written to inform and protect readers, never to show how to repeat the harm. Where it helps, we point readers to Roblox’s reporting tools.
Fairness and right of reply
When a story makes a serious allegation against a person, studio or company, we contact them before publishing and give them a reasonable chance to respond. If they don’t reply, we say so in the story. If a response arrives after publication, we add it and note when it was added.
Sources and anonymity
We name our sources whenever we can. We grant anonymity only when a source would face real harm, such as a ban, retaliation or harassment, and the information can’t be obtained on the record. At least one editor must know the identity of an anonymous source, and the story explains why anonymity was granted.
News, analysis and opinion
News stories report what happened. Analysis explains why it matters, and is grounded in evidence. Opinion pieces argue a point of view and are clearly labeled as opinion. We don’t mix opinion into news coverage.
Headlines and images
Headlines must be supported by the story beneath them. We don’t exaggerate, and we don’t use a question as a headline to suggest something the reporting can’t back up. Images are credited to their source, and edited or illustrative images are not presented as documentary evidence.
Independence and conflicts of interest
BloxPulse is independent and is not affiliated with Roblox Corporation. Writers disclose any connection to the subject of a story, such as working on a game, being paid by a studio, or owning a stake in a project, and an editor decides whether they can cover it. Where a connection is relevant to readers, we disclose it in the story.
Advertising and sponsored content
Advertising and sponsored placements are always labeled as such and kept visually separate from our reporting. Advertisers and sponsors don’t see stories before publication, and they don’t influence what we cover or what we say. Being an advertiser doesn’t protect anyone from critical coverage.
Editorial review
Every article is reviewed by an editor before it is published. Editors check sourcing, fairness, accuracy and compliance with these standards, and can send a story back to its writer or decline to publish it.
Live coverage
Live updates are published as events unfold, so early details can change. Each update is timestamped. If an earlier update turns out to be wrong, we correct it in place and say so in a new update instead of quietly deleting it.
Corrections
When we get something wrong, we fix it and add a correction note at the end of the story explaining what changed. Minor fixes to spelling or formatting that don’t change meaning don’t need a note. We don’t delete stories to hide mistakes. If a story is fundamentally wrong, we say so at the top.
Corrections have their own process, separate from story tips. To report an error in a story, Intel profile, opinion column or press release, use the Report an error form (every page links to it at the bottom). An editor checks your report against the source and records one of three decisions: corrected, not corrected, or already handled. You can see the decision and the reason on the same page. Significant errors get a dated correction note; minor ones are fixed without a note.
You can also reach us on our Discord server. Story ideas and leads still go through tips.
Use of AI tools
We may use AI tools to help spot breaking news and to write about it faster. AI doesn’t replace our judgment or our standards: a person on our team checks every fact, quote and source against these standards, and an editor reviews every story before it is published. We are responsible for everything we publish, however it was produced. Any AI-generated image is labeled as such.
