FE
In Roblox, FE is an acronym for “Filtering Enabled”.
What FE Means
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

Player3: I can’t drop items for you here - FE’s blocking it, ugh.
Player4: Thought I could glitch through the wall, but FE said nope - back to square one!
How FE Is Used in Roblox
FE refers to the security system Roblox implemented to prevent client-side exploits from affecting the server. Before FE, exploiters could run scripts that everyone in the server could see and feel. After FE was enabled across all games, exploits became limited to what the exploiter could see and do locally.
