How to get someones IP on ROBLOX? [closed]

I knew this was possible a while back ago, but I am not sure if it is still possible.

The reason I want this is because a friend of mine is getting cyber bullied over ROBLOX. He already tried contacting ROBLOX, but they are doing nothing about it. My friend even got it on tape, but ROBLOX just doesn't do anything about it. I've seen the tape and this cyber bully is like treating him. And this cyber bully somehow always knows where to find him.

So it's hard to JUST ignore him.

I feel sorry for my friend, and I want to find out where this person comes from. Note: I will only want his IP to check his location, nothing more, nothing less.

local NS = game:GetService("NetworkServer")

NS.IncommingConnection:connect(function(IP, replicator)
    print(IP)
end)

-- This method doesn't work.

Don't say: "Contact ROBLOX, and tell them about the cyber bully." Because they are doing nothing about it.

Thanks for helping.

Have him set his privacy settings for Who can follow him into a game to Friends, and Users I Follow. Report Cyberbullying to Roblox using their official report system, there they will get logs of the recent 50 chats (default) and should be handling it from there. There is no way to retrieve someone's IP and use it to ban them, it's one of Roblox's security features. M39a9am3R 3210 — 8y

He already changed his settings. But this person keeps finding him. So I am almost sure that the Cyber bully has an ALT which is in my friend's friendlist. My friend could remove all his friends, but then he might just remove all his best friends when they basically did nothing. manchester1002 57 — 8y

They removed the ability to do this in like 2012. UniversalDreams 205 — 8y

How are you fixing this situation by trying to launch a dos attack on someone anyways? UniversalDreams 205 — 8y

I never said I would DDOS him, I only want his IP so that I know where he comes from. Maybe he lives close to my friend, maybe not. manchester1002 57 — 8y

Either way its illegal, you should be contacting the police or a helpline because this goes against data privacy rights. LifeInDevelopment 364 — 8y

You can't due to the security risk.

Before 2014 you were able to do this using the following method:

ServerReplicator.Disconnection:connect(function(IP) end)

However this was locked over a year ago. I know you said to not advise you to contact ROBLOX, but a good idea would be to gather some evidence of the cyber bullying and tweet it at one of the community engagement representatives for ROBLOX on twitter. Be persistent but also patient.

Yeah, thank you I will accept this answer. And I am also thankful for everyone that helped me out in the Community Chat. manchester1002 57 — 8y
