    100% agree. Roblox looks like Minecraft but it’s more like a chatroom with games rather than a game with a chat feature.

    A chatroom where 60% of the users are under the age of 16. 40% under 12.

      Also extremely exploitative of child labor.

      They basically lead the kids on with a carot on a stick to develop in game content with a promise to get rich but the reality is that will never happen.

      Edit: This is just a TLDR; and the tip of the iceberg btw. If you have kids I highly recommend doing some research into Roblox specifically how it exploits children by incentivising them with false hope.

        This. It would solve so many problems. I know we’re all out here doing the best we can, but this would do wonders for society.
