The General Consumers of Roblox have made this petition to Roblox Corporation to make the moderation system better due countless inappropriate submissions to the game.

Before we dive into our story, let's define some key terms:

Experience - A game in Roblox, usually made by the community. Example: Pizza Place Simulator
Moderation: A process in which "moderators" determine what content is allowed on the platform and what isn't
Groomer: An online term which means "when someone builds a relationship, trust and emotional connection with a child or young person so they can manipulate, exploit and abuse them."

What is Roblox?

Roblox is an online User-Generated Content game. Essentially, people make Experiences for others to play. Released in 2006, the game has seen a surge in popularity and pop culture, with even the biggest corporations like SEGA collaborating or making Experiences with the game's free Game Creation software, Roblox Studio. Anyone can make it, and anyone can play it. This can and has raised many issues of child safety, but we'll get to that later.

The game was initially rated E10+ (Everyone 10 and Up), but this has since been changed to T (Teen) for Diverse Content.

Why does Roblox's Moderation system need to be upgraded?

In case you are unaware, the game has attempted to devote their time to child safety. Key word: tried.

Like many online platforms such as Discord, some people just do not understand that children exist in that game. Or, even worse, they do understand and are doing it on purpose.

You have likely heard the many "allegations" against multiple Roblox YouTubers over the last decade. YouTubers like Ribs, Ruben Sim and more have gotten banned from YouTube or Roblox because they have been acting inappropriately with users who are minors or harassing other users.

These users may resurface on the platform again.

This is the main reason Roblox Moderation needs to be updated.
