The Roblox Erotic Roleplay Community - "Roblox's ERP problem began in the mid 2010's as a quiet whisper. Over the next decade, this whisper would slowly grow into a blood curdling scream, audible from every corner of the platform."

[Dick Lickieta]

The problem with this analogy is that, regardless of whatever misleading advertising or marketing they say, Roblox is not an after school program or a summer camp. Roblox is an arcade on the boardwalk, a place for entertainment and socialization that both kids and adults inhabit equally, with some games being kid friendly and some games being more mature.

Roblox's age demographic is nearly 60% under 18 and 40% under the the age of 13 and that's assuming the number of 18+ users isn't inflated due to kids lying about their age.

"What if someone brought a gun to a school and shot someone, wouldn't you want to ban guns then?"

No, actually. Sorry to all the kids getting diddled, but it's their parent's fault for not monitoring their Internet usage. There is no system of age verification that isn't a horrific overreach. I sympathize with the people who want one, but ultimately, like guns, culture will develop and change to promote Internet safety the same way culture changed to where everyone on a range nowadays is a fucking gun safety expert compared to 200 years ago. I understand that you want to protect kids, I want that too, but ultimately we must allow culture to shift, which it will, and not force the government to mandate safety.

Guns are something you need to be 18+ to purchase that children get a hold of via negligence (that you also need ID to purchase), Roblox is a children's game.

I 100% agree parents should be more aware of what their kids are getting up to online, but Roblox is a company that makes a product for children and needs to specifically be held to a higher standard legally because of that. Alternatives are either no standards which was the status quo until recently of children being kidnapped by pedophiles or kids not being allowed to access the internet wholesale which enforcement would almost certainly be put on companies because no parent would ever want to have to answer for the actions of their bad parenting and thus you have your mandatory ID verification anyways.

Roblox has essentially acted as a digital Ghislaine Maxwell through their willful inaction and because of a worrying but unrelated trend of government overreach and that has a lot of people spooked at the idea of any sort of regulation, but modern government also exists in order to protect the people so unless you want to take matters into your own hands to deal with the problem (which I am in no way advocating for) they are the ones who have to do something.

Nevertheless this still leaves three possibilities.
One, he actively participated and didn't get any further badges while enjoying the grooming simulators for what they were intended for: grooming. He gives these games the green light only because he loves them, undermining Roblox with his grooming despite the CEO genuinely going against it.

Your Devil's advocacy has some merit, but I'm disinclined to charitable interpretations of what these fuckers have been doing. The behavior of these evil fucks can't be merely Hanlon's Razored into mere incompetence. There has been too much direct action for which the only explanation is malice.

Specifically, this "Chief Safety Officer." He actually went into and saw what was going on in these "condos." He not only did nothing about it, but has actively obstructed any attempts by the community to do anything about it.

Also just look at him.

Just fucking look at him.

There is a chance where the fall of Roblox will be used to completely end US internet traffic using the Kid's Online Safety Act draft like in the UK and the EU. That's 70% of the entire world's Internet Traffic by the way. Celebrate the end of a groomer and gooner platform whatever you want, but I have a gut feeling that this is going to be the beginning of a new set of bad news.

Millennial parenting is to blame certainly, but I doubt we would see shit like that given the power of the Tech Lobby, you have to remember theres a shit ton of demented boomers in Congress that will just vote based off who pays them the most and not out of any of their own personal moral convictions, theres plenty of crazy Authoritarian bills in the vein of the Kids Online Safety Act mainly coming out of representatives from the Deep South that get no co-sponsors, due to the Tech Lobby, and the general outrage if it ever got to the House Floor, Roblox is definitely fucked from this but I don't see them just flat out banning any other means of communication or locking it behind an ID, maybe at the state level some shit gets passed expanding shit like Child Services if Parents act retarded, but thats really all I see happening

 

[AnOminous]

Quit acting like Congress is such a source of wisdom. We do NOT need any MORE laws. We just need to enforce the ones that are already law. Whenever any goddamn idiot says "there oughtta be a law" 99% of the time THERE ALREADY IS ONE. We just need to enforce the ones that already exist and everyone agrees need to exist.

 

[Farmer Jon]

If the company is being lazy, the actual solution to the problem is simple: tell Glowie that the CEO once drew a stick figure of a child being raped by the stick figure of an adult. He'd let 1000 child rapists go free if that's the price of taking down that CEO.

Nigga what?

 

[Rux]

Specifically, this "Chief Safety Officer." He actually went into and saw what was going on in these "condos." He not only did nothing about it, but has actively obstructed any attempts by the community to do anything about it.

And to make it worse, the condo (it was just one) was owned by TheOfficialTeddy, the same creator who was gonna be apart of The Hatch event a couple of months ago, which caused a big scandal. The Chief Safety Officer of Roblox was already aware of Teddy for at least 8 months by that point and still signed off on letting him be apart of the event. Hell, he might've been the one to invite him for all we know.

It's only gotten worse ever since Schlep was banned... I hope to god Roblox looses every lawsuit they have against them.

 

[Goonsmoker]

Chibi Reviews once again doubles down on holding Roblox accountable because parents are to blame of their kids getting groomed and raped on the platform and not the billion dollar corporation.

Still a fat L from Louisiana AG pushing age verification on websites.

Man I do NOT want to see this guy EVER speak on the Roblox/grooming kids situation again. He just posted a screenshot of shotacon, and according to the comments, it's got lolicon in the "manga" too.

He's ACTUALLY flaunting his true alignment and exposing people to his degeneracy like a true groomer.


A picture's worth a thousand words, well here's 4k and honestly what else would you expect a lolisho coomer to look like?

EDIT: Pretty good video to signal boost.

Kids just need to be kept off of any type of social media/online games. Load up Mario/Zelda for them instead of the groomer haven block games.

I agree with you but the problem is the parents who instead of being a fucking parent will just give them an ipad and walk away. They expect the ipad and these companies to parent their kids and they are part of the problem. I have relatives that do that shit so I've seen it first hand. Besides the obvious roblox and pedophiles being a problem, blame needs to be put on the parents as well for this shit.

This is cope. While yes, parents should be more engaged, the liability is squarely on the company offering a children experience.
Its like saying "wow, the kid drowned in the pool at the kindergarten? The parents should have paid more attention!"

The whole point of "child safe" advertising is that parents feel comfortable leaving their kids in a space that they can explore without risk.
There are hundreds of cases filed with police in the US of parents who found out there was inappropriate things going on in the game. How did you think we got where we are? The AG did not file the lawsuit because of Schlep or Ruben Sim, they did it because the police has cases and evidence to support their claims.

What is needed is a law that requires special compliance parameters for companies making digital products for children, including direct personal liability for the leadership of the company. Right now companies can just claim "game for kids" and nobody actually checks if that is true.

In my opinion the ONLY way to achieve safe digital spaces for kids is if you make the people offering the software personally liable for enforcing rules and law.

I think we need to look at why parents are so absent these days and recognize that when women joined the workforce, we relegated parenting to a part time job - one that gets done simultaneously with housework, etc. The culture that pushed women into careers has completely erased the idea that there are skills needed to parent, duties owed by parents to their children, and that parenting requires time. Proper parenting is directly at odds with feminism, as it suggests that the immediate wants and gratification of women isn't the ultimate aim of existence. Proper parenting says that women have to subordinate their wants in order to take care of their children, and in order to get there as a society, we're going to have to dismantle the entire thought process behind "women's liberation."

Also, given that we've just seen the leaks of all the IDs submitted to gate keeping apps Tea and whatever the male-Tea was called, I think that requiring ID has some serious drawbacks. It's bad enough when adults get their name, picture and address stolen; compiling a database of the name, photo, age and address of millions of real children seems ripe for exploitation. That dataleak would be every pedos dream. They wouldn't have to get a child to divulge that information in a game, they could just browse the leak. And that's if the company doesn't have inside pedos willing to sell that info to their pedo friends.

I also don't know how in game purchases are supposed to be a proxy for age verification, given that parents are the ones paying for their children's Roblox purchases...

This, if anything positive comes out of this, it’s the fact that Gen Alpha will finally play something that isn’t Minecraft,Roblox,or Fortnite

Yeah, he looks like a creep, but it's still so surreal seeing this out of an older, clean-cut business guy. Obviously there's plenty of normal-looking people who in private engage in perverted/predatory/coomer shit, but Roblox ERP specifically is just another strata of brainrot coomer autism that I really can't put together the mental image of a balding Gen X-er with Roblox porn. It's such a strictly niche Internet phenomenon that I struggle to understand how someone past a certain age and level of "normie-dom" even gets into it.

I mean, a kid born in 2011 gets too much screen time and ends up being groomed into hyper-specific e-fetishes? Unfortunate, but I get how it happens.

But this fuckin guy probably looked at Playboy magazines growing up, and somehow late into his adult life, after becoming an accomplished CEO of a massive company, becomes such a sperg giga-coomer that he can't even keep his perversions under wraps? I just don't get how it happens.
