Stop Roblox From Silencing Predator Catchers


Stop Roblox From Silencing Predator Catchers
The Issue
Roblox, a platform used by millions of children worldwide, is threatening legal action against Schlep— a content creator who has dedicated his time to catching online predators and protecting kids.
Over the past year, Schlep has worked with law enforcement, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), and even major YouTubers like JiDion, a "pred catcher" with over 8 million subscribers, to expose and help arrest individuals targeting children on Roblox. His investigations have led to real arrests, felony charges, and predators being removed from the platform.
But instead of working with him, Roblox sent Schlep a Cease and Desist letter. They are accusing him of violating their rules — despite the fact that his evidence has repeatedly led to criminals being charged. Even worse, Roblox has often ignored his detailed reports, responding with copy-and-paste messages like “Block the user,” while predators remained active until news outlets got involved.
We believe this is an attempt to silence someone exposing Roblox’s failure to protect its young players. A platform that claims to prioritize safety should be supporting those protecting children — not threatening them.
We are calling on Roblox to:
- Drop the legal threats against Schlep.
- Work with experienced investigators and law enforcement to remove predators quickly.
- Commit to transparency about how predator reports are handled.
Children’s safety must come before Roblox's image.
Sign this petition to show Roblox that the community will not stand by while they silence someone working to make their platform safer.
EDIT (8/10/2025):
Roblox has officially responded by declaring "vigilante groups to be a platform risk", which can result in account termination or even legal action in Schlep's case. (Source: RTC, Roblox)
This is not effective, since Roblox and law enforcements groups do not care about the community and try to hide anything to do with disgusting people on their platform.
Let's push for the better, and get this to 100 signatures. We have a right to protect the platform.
I'm also moving this petition to Global, which means if you aren't in any of the highlighted countries, then you can sign this petition too.
