Further clarifications: Preston, owner/creator of "Pet Sim X" has told me that he diligently bans any accounts known to be trading items off server, as well as making the point nothing in his server was akin to anything regarding slot machines or gambling being present in "Pet Sim X".

Let me be a boomer here for a second and point out the fact that at some point, parents have to be accountable for what their children are doing on the net.

"Ask your parents before going online" was a statement we all casually ignored back in the day because it seemed silly, but with websites like Roblox and TikTok maybe we should've taken that recommendation much more seriously.

Roblox is probably worse than Tiktok, disregarding the fact that a lot of the criminal activity is being done directly to kids.

the craziest part is games on roblox with lootboxes are actually banned in countries that dont allow it, but pet sim somehow bypasses it lol

I just cannot believe the kind of stuff Roblox gets away with every day..

I cant even begin to describe how many times roblox has protected literal proven and dangerous players/people from their platform despite outrage and community cries to stop them.

Can't spell Roblox without "rob".

Fun fact: In the earlier stages of the roblox catalogue, shirts and pants could alternatively be purchased with a free currency called Tickets. They could also be acquired for free as well, but later down the road, Roblox removed tickets and forced clothing creators to charge at least five robux in selling their clothing.

If I ever have children, I’ll make sure they know very well about gambling, predatory behavior, and other dangers of the online world before letting them go ANYWHERE.

What’s crazy is sometimes kids and teens will band together to ban or get rid of predators from their games and servers and stuff.

Roblox desperately needs a thorough investigation. Not just for this, but there are quite a few PDF files in there. Two or three have been busted already.

There's a bad combination about, parents don't seem to teach kids about internet safety anymore. I was playing roblox for shits n giggles and there was a little girl in chat who said her age, the school she went to and her username was the 3 first letters of her first and last name.... I told her that what she did could be dangerous and she just didn't understand why :(

Roblox has gone so far downhill, I remember when I played it as a kid, and it was on the level of most other MMOs. I have had enough of these greedy scumbags, I decided to hop back on my account after years of inactivity, just to find out I'm banned because my "security cant be verified" I sent them an email from the account I made, and showed proof of purchases as well as my old password and everything. They kindly pointed the middle finger at me and said "Sorry we dont have a way to verify your account, so it will remained banned. Companies like this make me sick, ruining childhoods....

I joined ROBLOX in January of 2007. My account ID # was under 10000. I stopped playing around 2012. It blows my mind what it has become. When I started playing, nobody that I knew, knew what it was. I tried going back out of sheer boredom during the pandemic and it's

Careful, Muta. Someone who did a deep diive video on Roblox's predatory behavior towards their creators got hit by a lawsuit.

Which is why my daughter, who started playing Roblox when she was like 6 years old, was given enough money to purchase a cosmetic or something she wanted and that was it. We give her 10 bucks we'd watch to see what she would spend and we would follow up by checking her balance every once in a while. She already learned at an early age the value of a dollar and never once had a problem with her spending frivolously. A couple times she wanted money, enough to buy a game pass in a game or two but she picks her games very carefully and asks maybe twice a whole year for a little bit of money. You've got to do it when they're young to show them the difference between a valued purchase and a waste of money. The first thing I taught her was exactly this video says never spend Robux on a chance to get something in a game. Either by the whole pass and get all of it or buy a cosmetic that you can use over and over again

If I have kids, they’re banned from the internet. I’ve seen too many kids get targeted by bad people (including my own younger siblings) to feel any other way.

Roblox is so predatory it hurts. As someone with young children who play Roblox it’s sometimes concerning

Finally ive been saying this for ages. I've educated my son on staying away from the gambling shit.
