AA
AA is an acronym for "Admin Abuse", which is when an administrator misuses their administrative powers.

"I didn't break the rules but I got kicked from the game, did someone AA?"
13+
13+ means that something is only accessible or recommended to players who are aged 13 or over.
→ Example Usage
"This game is 13+ because it contains violence."
1337
1337 is another way to type the word "LEET", as 1 looks like L, 3 looks like E and 7 looks like T. When used in Roblox, 1337 usually means elite, which is the word that leet comes from. 1337 can also refer to leetspeak, which is when people replace letters with numbers that look alike.
→ Example Usage
"I'm so 1337."
"1'm so c00l, I sp3ak in 1337 speak."
ABC
ABC isn't an acronym, and doesn't mean anything specific. It is a word that people use to respond to a request from another Roblox player. For example, one player might say "ABC for free gear!", and players who want the free gear would send "ABC" as a chat message to signal that they are interested.
→ Example Usage
"ABC for free stuff!"
"ABC! ABC! I want free stuff!"
AFK
AFK is an acronym for the phrase "away from keyboard". Away from keyboard means, quite literally, that a player is going to be away from their computer and not available for a period of time. This phrase is used when a player will be away for both short and long durations: a player might say "AFK" when they are going to get a drink, or alternatively when they are leaving their computer to visit the shops. Usually, however, it will be used when a player is away for less than 20 minutes as Roblox will disconnect players who aren't active for 20 minutes.
→ Example Usage
"My brother wants help with something, I'm going AFK!"
"Mmmm.. is that dinner I smell? I'll be AFK for a while!"
Alias
In Roblox, alias refers to aliases set through the alias feature. The alias feature allows players to set an alias - meaning a nickname - for their friends. Aliases are only visible to those who create them, so if you set an alias for your friend, only you can see that alias. Because of this, it is common for players to ask what aliases their friends have set for them.
→ Example Usage
"Hey Timmy, what's my alias?"
"Set my alias as butterfly queen!"
Alt
In Roblox, alt is a shortened form of the word "alternate account". An alternate account is another Roblox account that a player uses that isn't a their main account. For example, if a player had two Roblox accounts, the second would be their "alt" account.
→ Example Usage
"Dude, is that your alt account or just some random guy?"
"I'll be back in a moment, I want to use my alt account!"
Annually
In Roblox, annually means the same as it does in the real word: that something happens once a year. If a subscription to Roblox Premium is charged "annually", that means you pay once a year.
→ Example Usage
"I pay for my Roblox membership annually instead of monthly because it's cheaper!"
"My friend goes on holiday annually every summer."
BETA
In Roblox, beta refers to a version of a game, or other object like an asset, that is available to play or use as a trial because it isn't yet fully finished or tested. Games and assets in a "beta" phase are usually free from major bugs but may have small issues that still need to be worked out. A game developer may run a "beta test" of a new game or update to polish features and find bugs.
→ Example Usage
"Have you tried the beta of that new Roblox game? It's great!"
"I just released my game in beta because there are still some bugs."
BRB
BRB is short for "be right back", which means quite literally that a player will be unavailable for a short period of time (e.g. 30 seconds) but they will "be right back". For example, if a player is leaving their computer to get a drink, they might use this phrase to let you know that they will be gone.
→ Example Usage
"I am going to get some lemonade, I'll BRB!"
"BRB, I need to speak to my friend."
Chile
In Roblox, chile can mean one of two things. It can mean chill: as in, chilled out and relaxed. Or it can mean child: as in a young person.
→ Example Usage
"Bro I'm so chile right now!"
Dec
In Roblox, the word "Dec" is used before numbers and words in an attempt to bypass the chat filter. Because Roblox picks up "Dec" as December, it may mistakenly allow certain banned phrases or characters to be used after it.
Disc
Disc is a shortened form of the word "Discord", which refers to the chat application. Discord is a banned word on Roblox to help protect members of the community from scams and inappropriate behavior.
e.e

FE
In Roblox, FE is an acronym for "Filtering Enabled". When filtering is enabled for a game, it means that changes made on the client aren't replicated on the server. This prevents cheaters from inserting objects into the world because the changes they make to their client aren't passed onto the server (which would then be passed onto everyone connected).
→ Example Usage
"Goodluck cheaters, this server has FE!"
"No :( I can't cheat on this server because they have FE."
FFS
In Roblox, FFS is short for the phrase "for fudge sake". This is a figure of speech that is used to express frustration or annoyance. Sometimes "fudge" is replaced with a much more profane word.
→ Example Usage
"FFS, I just died!"
"Why can't I level up fast enough?? FFS!"
GFX
In Roblox, GFX has two meanings. Its first, and most simple, is a shortened form of the word "graphics". Its second meaning refers to high-quality rendered images of Roblox characters and games that are made with special software. These high-quality rendered images have a lot more definition than Roblox, often incorporating detailed shadowing and enhanced 3D effects.
→ Example Usage
"The GFX of that new game aren't very good."
"Can you make my game some GFX?"
GG
In Roblox, GG is short for the phrase "good game", which is the gaming equivalent of the phrase "good job" or "nice". It is often used at the end of games to congratulate the other team. It may also be used ironically when something unfortunate happens.

HR
In Roblox, HR is an acronym for the phrase "High Rank", which refers to players who have high ranks on a server (i.e. they have more power and access to more features) or group.

In Roblox, Limited (U) (meaning Limited Unique) items are items that only have a limited quantity available before they are discontinued. For example, a Limited (U) hat may only be sold 5,000 times before it is taken off the store forever. This is different to Limited items which have an infinite quantity but are discontinued after a certain date.
→ Example Usage
"Did you see my hat? It's Limited (U)."
"It's already sold out! That always happens with Limited (U) items because too many people buy them!"
