Gray Robloxians

The phenomenon known as "Gray Robloxians" is an infamous incident back in early 2010 to late 2014 about a large mass of players reporting to have lost "everything" in their accounts. What is interesting to most people about this case is they didn't just lose their Robux or Tix, the victims of those accounts also lost everything they had in their inventory; their hats, clothing, and their gamepasses. The only things that were left on the accounts were any free items.

At first glance, it seems that there may be a glitch in Roblox's data storage. However, as more people investigated into the occurring incident over the years, the more they uncovered interesting things about this event.

First off, the accounts that lost everything had Builder's Club, whether they had it now or in the past. There were no cases of non-builders club players being victim from this event, and any reports of that were assumed to be false.

In addition, the players of those accounts were also relatively active on Roblox, most of which were usually playing the games that would appear on the front page.

There was one more thing that the players investigated noted. If it really was a glitch in Roblox's data storage, why did these characters change into an avatar that looked like it first joined on Roblox? In addition, why would only the free items stay, yet all the other items that would've had a price were deleted?

These investigators later came to the conclusion that they were coordinately attacked by an unknown group of hackers. Some of the victims even admitted that the passwords they had were very weak. These hackers had password-guessed their way into the accounts.

A few of those investigators were smart enough to ask the victims to check the transactions of the accounts, as the robux and tix couldn't have disappeared to nothing. The victims who participated had all noted that they had a group purchase on t-shirts, with the price as the exact robux and tix they had before they were hacked.

What was mysterious is the fact that the group had no one as the owner. The owner had probably left with the profits he made.

These victims, along with several other users who believed in the incident, asked Roblox to take action and ban whoever was the user who hacked them all. However, Roblox couldn't find the owner of who made the group. The only thing that they could do is to delete the group that scammed them and give them compensation in the form of the robux they lost.

No one knows who was the person who orchestrated this hacking to this day. It's highly unlikely that an event like this would happen in the future, but the possibility of it happening is still there.
