GameHow to Fix Roblox Error 267: You Were Kicked From This Game
You are mid-game, everything is going fine, and suddenly you are staring at a disconnect screen: you were kicked from this game — error 267. Sometimes it happens the moment you join. Sometimes it waits until you have been playing for ten minutes. Either way, it is one of the most confusing Roblox errors, because the same code covers everything from a ban to a bad Wi-Fi signal.
In plain English, error 267 means the game removed you from its server. Unlike a connection error, which says the network failed, a kick is a decision: something on the game's side decided your session should end. That something could be a ban, an anti-cheat system flagging a script, a broken game script, or a connection so unstable the server gave up on you. The good news is that the kick message itself usually tells you which one it is — if you read it before clicking away. The 7 fixes below are ordered to match the message to the cause.
What causes Roblox error 267?
Because each game writes its own kick reasons, error 267 has more causes than most Roblox errors. The usual suspects:
- An experience-level ban — the game's developer or moderators banned your account from their game specifically, while your Roblox account itself is untouched.
- Script or cheat detection — the game's anti-cheat flagged an injected script, an exploit tool, or a browser extension tampering with the game.
- An unstable internet connection — repeated lag or dropped packets make the server drop your session, which shows up as a kick.
- Browser or app problems — an outdated browser, a corrupt cache, or broken game files can break the session and trigger a kick.
- Server-side or script bugs — a broken update or a faulty script in the game itself can kick players for no fault of their own.
- Age or account restrictions — some experiences kick players whose accounts do not meet their age or settings requirements.
- A temporary anti-cheat kick — some games issue short kicks, lasting minutes or hours, when their detection systems misfire or flag suspicious behavior.
1Read the full kick message before doing anything else
Error 267 is unusual because the game itself writes the reason. The message might say you were banned, name a script or exploit it detected, mention your connection, or say nothing useful at all. Read the whole message, and take a screenshot. A ban message means Fix 2. A script or cheat warning means Fix 3. A vague message with no reason, especially one that appears on many games, points at your connection or install — Fixes 4 through 6. Players who skip this step waste hours reinstalling a game that banned them, or appealing a ban that was actually a Wi-Fi problem. The screenshot also matters later: if you appeal, the developer will ask exactly what the message said.
2Check whether you were banned from that experience
If the kick message mentions a ban, or if error 267 hits you every single time you join one specific game while everything else works, you are probably dealing with an experience-level ban. This is not a Roblox account ban — a real account ban shows an explicit moderation message when you log in, and it blocks everything. An experience ban blocks you from one game only, and only that game's developer can lift it. Check the game's group page or Discord server for an appeal process, and be honest about what happened: appeals that own the incident get lifted far faster than ones that deny it. If there is no appeal channel, or the ban message gives a duration, waiting it out may be the only option.
3Turn off scripts, exploits, and suspicious browser extensions
Modern Roblox games run anti-cheat systems that watch for injected scripts, speed hacks, aim tools, and anything that changes how the game client behaves. If one flags you, the game kicks you with error 267 — sometimes instantly, sometimes after a few minutes of play. Remove any cheat or exploit software completely, not just close it, and disable browser extensions that interact with Roblox or inject scripts into pages. Then relaunch Roblox clean and try again. This fix also protects your account: players who keep running flagged tools after a warning kick often come back to find the temporary kick has become a permanent ban. Free items, unlimited currency, and fly hacks are never worth the account.
4Fix an unstable internet connection
A connection that drops packets or stalls mid-game can look exactly like a kick to the server, and the server responds the same way: it ends your session. If error 267 strikes randomly mid-game rather than at join time, suspect the connection first. Switch to a stable Wi-Fi or wired connection, move closer to your router, and restart the router itself — a reboot clears the stale state that causes many intermittent drops. Close heavy downloads, video streams, and cloud backups while you play, and if you are on mobile data, switch to Wi-Fi: mobile connections hop towers and drop packets far more often. If the kicks stop on a different network, you have found the culprit, and the fix is your network, not your account.
5Use a supported browser and clear the cache
If you play through the browser, an outdated browser version, a corrupt cache, or a conflicting extension can break the Roblox web player and produce kicks that look like bans. Update your browser to the latest version, then clear its cache and cookies for Roblox and try joining again. If the browser player keeps failing, switch to the official desktop app on Windows or Mac, or the mobile app on your phone or tablet — the apps skip the browser entirely and dodge a whole class of extension and cache problems. While the fix is running, the free browser games on GameAdda need no login and no launcher at all. 🎮
6Reinstall Roblox cleanly
Corrupt or outdated game files can cause repeated kicks that no settings change will fix. Uninstall Roblox completely — on Windows, remove it through Settings and delete any leftover Roblox folders; on phones and tablets, uninstall the app — then restart your device and download a fresh copy from the official Roblox site or your device's app store. Log in and join the game again. A clean install also clears stale cached scripts that can trigger anti-cheat kicks after a bad update. Do this only after Fixes 1 through 5, because reinstalling will not help a ban or a bad connection, and those are far more common causes.
7Wait out a temporary kick, then appeal if it sticks
Some error 267 kicks are temporary by design: anti-cheat systems and server-side guards sometimes issue kicks lasting minutes or hours, especially after a suspicious-looking session or a server hiccup. If the message gives no ban notice and other games work, wait at least 30 minutes and try again — many players find the kick has simply expired. If the kick persists for days on one game only, appeal through the developer's group or Discord with your username, a screenshot of the exact kick message, and when it started. If it persists on every game, contact Roblox Support with your username, device, operating system, and everything you already tried — that detail gets you past the copy-paste replies to a real answer faster.
Quick checklist to avoid error 267
- Always read the full kick message — and screenshot it — before troubleshooting or appealing.
- Never run scripts, exploits, or suspicious extensions with Roblox; a warning kick often becomes a permanent ban.
- Before troubleshooting, check whether the kick hits one game or all games — that single test halves the suspects.
- Play on a stable Wi-Fi or wired connection, and restart your router when kicks strike randomly mid-game.
- Keep your browser updated and your Roblox install fresh, and switch to the desktop or mobile app if the browser player keeps failing.
Frequently asked questions
What does Roblox error 267 mean in plain English?
Error 267 means the game removed you from the server — you were kicked. The message usually includes a reason written by the game's developer or its anti-cheat system. Common reasons include a ban from that experience, a script or cheat detection, an unstable connection, or a server-side problem.
Is Roblox error 267 a ban?
Sometimes, but not always. Error 267 can be an experience-level ban, which blocks you from one game only, but it can also be a temporary kick, a connection drop, or an anti-cheat trigger. If every other game works fine, your Roblox account is not banned — only that one game is blocking you. If every game kicks you, the problem is on your device or connection.
Why do I get error 267 in only one Roblox game?
Because the kick decision is made by that game's own scripts and moderators, not by Roblox globally. A ban, an anti-cheat flag, or a broken script in that one game will kick you there while every other game works normally. Read the kick message for the reason, check the game's group or Discord for appeals, and try a different game to confirm the problem is isolated.
Can a bad internet connection cause Roblox error 267?
Yes. When your connection drops or lags badly mid-game, the server can treat the broken session as a kick and show error 267. Switch to a stable Wi-Fi or wired connection, restart your router, and close heavy downloads or streams. If the error only happens on weak mobile data or public Wi-Fi, your connection is the likely cause.
How long does Roblox error 267 last?
It depends on the cause. Temporary anti-cheat or server kicks usually clear within minutes to a few hours. Connection-caused kicks stop as soon as your connection is stable. Experience bans last until the developer lifts them, which may require an appeal. If the error persists for days on one game only, appeal through that game's own channels.
What should I do if error 267 happens in every Roblox game?
If every game kicks you with error 267, the problem is account-wide or device-wide: a corrupt install, a bad browser setup, a VPN or firewall problem, or a connection issue. Reinstall Roblox cleanly, update your browser, turn off your VPN, and test on a different network. If it still happens everywhere, contact Roblox Support with your username, device, and everything you already tried.
For most players, error 267 comes down to one question: did the game kick you, or did your connection fail? The kick message answers it. If it names a ban, appeal it. If it names a script, remove it. If it says nothing and every game kicks you, fix the connection and the install — and remember the free browser games here on GameAdda while you wait: no kicks, no bans, no error codes — just pick one and play. 🎮
