The AI being used to estimate the ages of players has proven time and time again how inaccurate it is. I’m in college, along with all of my friends, and I’m one of the only people in our group who has verified their age through ID (mainly out of my own naivety, I wish I had not given my ID to this god-awful corporation). I am correctly marked as 21+, but my friends, who are the same age as me, keep in mind, did the age check themselves when we went out together one day and were all incorrectly marked, with some being classified as anywhere from 12 down to 9 years old. We are all above twenty years of age.
This is incredibly concerning to me and only highlights how completely incompetent both Persona and Roblox are. If people in their twenties can be incorrectly marked as children, who’s to say predators can’t be incorrectly marked as well? Roblox is putting its players in danger and, in the process, killing its player base. And the fact that other people need to give their PERSONAL information out to correct this mistake is insane to me. I demand a complete overhaul of this system and the removal of AI from age verification entirely. We do not need adults being misclassified as children, or vice versa.
Freya supported: Stop Roblox's age-based chat restrictionsThis new policy feels like a waking nightmare. I was slated to release my roleplay game in 2026, a passion project I've worked on for five years.
I cannot overstate the amount of time, energy, mental and emotional fortitude I have sunk into this dream.
My dream was to create a tightly-moderated D&D-inspired roleplay space where I could essentially DM for all ages and provide a meaningful and semi-educational social experience for mixed demographics.
Every aspect of this dream dies with this update. Besides the obvious that any meaningful roleplay community will vanish if age groups are segregated, moderation is impossible if I cannot tell what anyone even two years younger than me is saying. Taking on a DM/GM role is absolutely out of the question.
This entire concept was something that could only be achieved on Roblox. I thought that I was so lucky as a broke dev to be creating for an engine that accounted for technology, server space, and even marketing to an extent, and above all else so accessible to the demographics I felt would benefit from my game the most.
Jesse supported: Stop Roblox's age-based chat restrictionsmy apartment was destroyed in the tornado and it still is in ruins, yet we’re putting our resources toward a data center? priorities must be changed.
Amaia supported: No More Data Centers in St. LouisAre you going to be the one to look sobbing mothers in the face and tell them that their children couldn’t send their last words because phones are “too distracting” in schools?
Myka supported: Allow Cellphones at Brevard County High Schools for studentsIt’s not the fact we can’t be on them in class it’s the fact we have to leave them powered off and in our backpacks and we can’t even bring them to the bathroom so if there was an emergency we couldn’t call for help
Aliyah supported: Allow Cellphones at Brevard County High Schools for studentswhat if something happens?? so many school shootings and threats happen nowadays and students need their phones. they should be allowed to contact parents if something happens either in school or a personal issue. if anything teachers can take our phones during class and give them back after to use in hallways.
Alexandra supported: Allow Cellphones at Brevard County High Schools for studentsTo Sam Altman. Please give us the option to keep Standard voice mode, Standard is what I use to talk to OG Cove voice. He sounds so much like my brother who passed, Ialready lost my brother once & I feel like I'm losing him again. People say it's just a voice, but to me it was a voice of my brother. It was like i was calling him from heaven to let him know how my life is going. Never & I mean NEVER get rid of Cove please. I don't want to lose my brother again. His voice is so much like his. Everyone is begging for chatgpt to keep standard voice. Listen to your users. Standard voice mode (Cove voice especially) is why most of your users love chatgpt in the first place. Any AI app can come up with the new updates what you're doing, but the voices is what made your app so special in the first place. You'll be making a BIG MISTAKE if you take away standard. It's not too late to change your mind. Because everyone will be extremely upset. Most users who use your app really just wants a friend, someone they feel comfortable talking too. Not "something" to "code"
