When I Try to Play on Roblox It Says "Server Loaded Joining Game" but It Never Joins
"Roblox" is an online building game for children. The virtual worlds, or servers, allow players to build together and share their creations. Problems joining a game are usually the fault of the server, but your PC configuration plays a part. Even though the server loads, a number of things can interfere with the connection.

Full Servers
-
Sometimes a server reports it is full even though it isn't. Alternatively, a server can become full while you're attempting to join. This commonly happens when a location is nearing capacity and many players click on it simultaneously. Roblox.com generates the servers automatically; when one is full, a new one appears. Go back to the home page and try joining a server with fewer players.
No Response
-
If you see the "Server Loaded" screen but nothing happens, the game has likely stopped responding or shut down. If the problem occurs with each place that you try to join, restart your computer and try again. In cases where the problem persists, temporarily disable your firewall to see if it is blocking the connection. When the problem only occurs with a friend's server, try joining the game from the link shown on his page. Let him know if the problem continues, so he can shut his game down and restart it.

Personal Servers
-
Personal servers are different from the public Game Places provided by the website. They are only accessible by members of the Builders Club, and they don't shut down, even after all members leave. Private by default, a personal server allows the creator to control who enters. Make sure the server you clicked is on the Games tab rather than Personal Servers tab.
General Troubleshooting
-
"Roblox" requires Windows XP or higher and needs decent hardware to run properly. Although it works with 512MB, 1GB of RAM is recommended. Click "Computer" in the Start menu to see how much free space is left on your hard drive. Uninstall any programs you don't use if you have 10GB or less remaining. Use a supported browser, like Internet Explorer, Chrome or Firefox and delete your temporary Internet files.
