    1) before you comment about the ruben sim lawsuit remember this came out in august, before it started 2) the game i'm playing in tier 1-4 is bedwars, and tier 1-6 is project lazarus 3) ima be honest i'm dumb as hell for not including the april fools hack LOL, i didn't include it because i didnt think of it as a "controversy". sorry about that
  • @lavacrystall
    Some people can literally bypass the chat filters and swear and some cannot even say “hi”. The moderation is sometimes disappointing.
  • @windowsxpnt2347
    It’s sad to think people think of quackity as “funny dream smp man” and not the guy who got various hashtags on twitter trending due to his raids on habbo, club penguin island and many more
  • @saushat2931
    You left out how “s3x” games were making it to the front page a couple of years ago which also took hours for roblox moderators to take down . They would have nude bodies you could morph into and roleplay in i came across it as a child and it was honestly so sick.
  • @angel404
    i just noticed that you're playing Minecraft while talking about ROBLOX...? lol
  • "builders club, the precursor to roblox premium" "tix were removed 5 years ago" man i feel old
  • Brick Bronze isn't rebranded as Loomian Legacy, Loomian legacy is a different game, Brick Bronze is still being reuploaded whenever it gets taken down, which is frequent, but they keep the player data in cloud so people dont restart every couple days or so
  • @motherhwa
    I remember being so interested in so-called roblox hackers back when I first had roblox (I got roblox again about 4 months ago) like 1x1x1x1 and John and Jane doe. Those were some crazy times This was also a very well explained video, well scripted and thoroughly explained!
  • @chongo1x494
    I’ve been playing since around 2014, when I was about 6. I remember that I would keep on forgetting I had a roblox account, and I’d just create a new one. It was a really fun opportunity to be around roblox during that time, and I’m just grateful that the worst I had was the occasional hacker/toxic player, and not some type of slender man who’s ripped and looks also like a scarecrow.
  • @ion7662
    “It’s also banned in North Korea” woah didn’t see that coming
  • @finnyjam8252
    Other than me just growing up, the reason I really stopped playing roblox is because they kept removing things. Censoring chat stuff, removing tix, the forums, hell it’s really hard to find new games because you cannot search by genre anymore. And it doesn’t help that the front page has shown basically the same games for the past 3 years.

  • The news makes it sound like you just randomly found condo games. You don’t accidentally join a condo game, you look for it
  • @mi_kii
    Ahhh yes controversy. The topic roblox perfectly fits into.
  • @pixie4184
    WARNING: disturbing and triggering content 1) A year ago or so while I was playing the streets, someone put a decal of literal CP up for everyone to see. I was so disturbed and nobody knew who kept putting it up, I think they might have had exploits because it would keep reappearing without anyone around to do it. Since nobody knew who had the decal, we were all unable to report it. I didn’t want to screenshot it and have to turn it in for the roblox moderation team to “look into it” and do nothing. It still makes me completely sick to this day. That’s not the only incident I’ve had where I’ve witnessed a horrible decal that was bypassed. 2) I went to play a cart ride game with a friend, and I got teleported to a completely different game where it was a baseplate with a kfc and a bunch of nazi stuff. Apparently the chat filter was gone too, because when I spawned in I said “wtf” expecting it to be censored, but it never was. There were others in the game exploiting and using disturbing stuff on my avatar after jailing and freezing me. I got a 14 day ban like 20 minutes later for saying “wtf.” I tried appealing, but they never even got back to me until the day before my ban was lifted, and that was only to say that they won’t unban me. 3) this girl and her online boyfriend would constantly threaten my friend and I. Once, she took it to the extreme where she doxxed my friend by repeatedly spamming her address, number, ssn, etc. We took screenshots and reported it to roblox, but nothing happened as a result. They just said they take things like that seriously and that they are going to investigate. That girl was also known for doing that to other competitive groups (she owns a clothing group) and spamming their group with threats and bots and other things. She was eventually banned, but she made a new account where she took over her old clothing group again.
  • I remember for a period of time no accounts under the age of 13 could use the chat box feature at all and there was only a set amount of things someone could say
  • @shutired
    As someone who's been playing Roblox for a while, aside from the countless amount of racist, homophobic, and outright derogatory games, I feel like these two kids of things aren't talked about much. 1. Con games I'm not exactly sure what these are called, but they always go under titles like „scented cons" with heart emojis surrounding the name. Anyways, the games are always filled with pedophiles and the contents are disturbing. The whole premise of the game is to do the dirty with people and they always give you things that are to resemble certain objects used during those times and the chat is completely uncensored. The weird thing is, these game never seem to be taken down despite mass-reporting of them. 2. Roblox Roleplay Restaurant These games are fine on the outside and I used to really enjoy playing them until trolling them became a trend. By trolling, I don't mean messing with people, just flat out insulting them, making fun of them, saying slurs, ect. These games also tend to get hacked often and trolls buy their way into admin privileges. Aside from that, a lot of the people who get admin privileges seriously are just horrible people in general and honestly, if they weren't a discord kitten to the owner of the game, everyone would suspect them being a troll. Speaking of Discord, the amount of mishaps that occur there is insane. Dear person who actually decided to read this literal skyscraper of text, I love you and have a great day.
  • @TheCakesCup26
    You can’t say “Town” on Roblox when your under 13 but you can say “I wanna spend the rest of my life with you” and “I love you”. That’s poor moderation. Edit: Why does this have so many likes and replies Edit: Thanks for the likes. Also i found literal cropped R34 on the roblox library, So uh.... Yeah.
  • @effie5641
    I remember me and my brother being obsessed with Roblox around 2017-18, the same era where videos of Jenna the Killer and Guest666 and John Doe were all over, and also when the Guest option were removed, was truly a fun year despite the scary rumours and hackers going around
