The new roblox age guidelines rules update is kind of insane...

Roblox will apparently soon be updating/adding some new TOS Age Guidelines. A lot of players are freaking out and worrying over this. But honestly, I doubt we will see any chance. Look at it this way. Roblox moderation is not going to get less strict.

What is ROBLOX? ROBLOX is an online virtual playground and workshop, where people of all ages can safely interact, create, have fun, and learn. It’s unique in that practically everything on ROBLOX is designed and constructed by members of the community. ROBLOX is designed for 8 to 18 year olds, but it is open to people of all ages. Each player starts by choosing an avatar and giving it an identity. They can then explore ROBLOX — interacting with others by chatting, playing games, or collaborating on creative projects. Each player is also given their own piece of undeveloped real estate along with a virtual toolbox with which to design and build anything — be it a navigable skyscraper, a working helicopter, a giant pinball machine, a multiplayer “Capture the Flag” game or some other, yet­to­be­dreamed-up creation. There is no cost for this first plot of virtual land. By participating and by building cool stuff, ROBLOX members can earn specialty badges as well as ROBLOX dollars (“ROBUX”). In turn, they can shop the online catalog to purchase avatar clothing and accessories as well as premium building materials, interactive components, and working mechanisms.

I think Roblox has realized these are very frequent problems on their website, so instead of trying to ban them, they decided to simply regulate them. Kind of like when prohibition was in place, drinking in some areas went up because now, the government couldn't regulate who can drink and where they can drink it.

Instead of ABC to trust trade get ready for ABC for a gf in Adopt me 😭💀

Seriously tho if its a law against children and gambling irl, even if the roblox TOS says its OK, its still illegal??

[stev]

roblox should focus on improving their moderation than add stuff that are already there

[Multi]

I bet that some people will make some really explicit games but because of Roblox’s moderation little kids will see it.

[irfnmml]

Roblox never makes us proud for the 100th time

[prayinq]

actually a part of me thinks this is a good update.. roblox reprimatinding adults not to swear feels like a 17 year old in timeout.
but i also feel a bit skeptical, people may use this update to swear even if theyre not 18 above.

About drinking, there is a game called "Decaying winter: The last strandeds", there is a utility which is a bottle of whisky or something but eh, I don't feel like it is bad, you just get an camera voble and a painkiller effect for like 20-30 seconds and that's it.

"Adopt me is like a CSGO gambling version for kids" -tankfish

They should make it so you can verify on underaged accounts because most accounts have false age and people like me are stuck with it

[briseismercado]

there is only one vibe game i know of were you just vibe, and orders are not usually seen there. its called cabin roleplay and it's a nice game to play when your bored or tired. there's a campfire, a kitchen, a mini balcony, a living room with an actual working tv. i even had a nice conversation with someone about how rare it is to snow in the warmer states.

100% think roblox should work on their moderation system before they decide to add things for us older players, I’d hate for my younger sister to be exposed to certain things at her age.

[A-Dead-Soul]

I would say, Only allow the people over 18 to get the over 18 features if they added their ID.
Because otherwise anyone can pretent to be older and then meet some creeps or pedophiles.
It'd be safer for children due they couldn't rlly go into these type of things if they didn't proof they are over 18.
It's like when you go to a shop to buy vodka (i intent to drink some kinda vodka), without some ID you just can't buy it, but with a ID proving you are 18+ you can.

[BankruptStudio]

Oh my god, all of these new Guidelines are very wild.

[SpctralI]

The main issue is parents not monitoring their iPad kids and letting them lie about their age lol

[LevixTheCreator]

romantic themes and romantic dating is basically just roblox making an excuse to keep the vibe/hangout games to be on the website including online dating.

[Raykiv]

For everybody (Including Sharkblox)
That thinks that these apply to players.
NO.
It will only apply to games and they will be marked for 18+ like All Ages, 9+, 13+ so its not a big deal its only going to affect what you play, YOU have to decide where you go.

[Xloverse]

roblox should NEVER allow sexual games, roblox already has an issue with grooming it would only become worse

[Plasmacticus]

i think by romantic themes it means like if the game has a story, the characters can be a couple. without this being allowed you cant canonically have parents in a game, as they're a couple.

[rukimoto]

0:27 GAMBLING?! ROMANTIC THEMES?!
(i mean, romance is not bad at all, but i cant trust how the people will be romancey stuff like that, especially young kids)

(gambling is illegal, and why are they doing this?!)

[yukich]

So roblox just basically gave up moderating this and knew this things already exist anyway
