Roblox Error Code 267 is an error that usually occurs during gameplay, as a result, the player is abruptly banned or kicked out of the game. The error is shown with a pop-up box on the screen which explains the reason for kicking you out.
Basically, neither Roblox nor the player is to be blamed for the error. Instead, the main reason you’re facing this error is due to the insertion of illegal scripts by the game’s developers. The games are designed to sense and prevent such illegal activities.
So, whenever the game detects such suspicious activities, ROBLOX immediately kicks the player out of the game in an attempt to prevent itself from being hacked/manipulated by the cheat codes.
However, there can be other several reasons leading to this error. One such could be having a new account. So, if your account is less than 30 days old then the game automatically kicks you out and any attempts to replay the game are futile.
Exactly, these two reasons are out of your hands. So, don't trouble yourself, go ahead and play other games. ROBLOX has enough games to keep you busy.
Note: Read the pop-up message explaining the reason behind the error carefully, so, that you can troubleshoot accordingly.
