KC_ӼTZ (@katie_xtz) reported@FIMUSFIM People shouldn’t have to be frightened about weither or not their local public/private Wifi or IP could be poisoned to where you could get enforcement banned. This is something that should be taken more caution towards, not ignored @Roblox. Innocent players getting banned like this left and right every month for no reason! The system needs to be fix or changed, it’s not fair to players who follow the rules.

Galaxia Studios (@GalaxiaNetwork) reported@elliotlfg Jailbreak is NOT OG Roblox. An OG Roblox game is something like Natural Disaster Survival, Epic Minigames, Work at a Pizza Place, Survive a Plane Crash, etc.

HelloItsVG (@HelloItsVG) reportedRoblox AI moderation just banned a verified college student because her account got linked to a random stranger she's never met. She said: >"I am a college student so I share IPs with multiple people" >"I got banned because some random account was linked to mine" >"I've had this account since 2017 and logged on almost everyday” Roblox AI moderation is broken and falsely bans thousands of accounts per day. I was wondering if you use a public Wi-Fi... And somebody got banned…Will you also get banned?

DJ Monopoli (@DJMonopoli) reported@Ivory_2505 Getting "mad" at Roblox for something you don't like is entirely justified, but that's obviously not what I'm talking about here at all because simply being mad about something isn't overdramatic, it's how you react afterward that determines if it's overdramatic or not. It all comes down to being logical about feedback and criticism, and this is something a lot of people in the community really could use some work with. That said, It's already been stated that Roblox is being forced into doing the age checks as part of legal settlements, so unfortunately it appears as though there's not really a whole lot they could do about that. Unfortunately, I could be wrong, but the dynamic heads thing appears to be also somewhat out of their control as well, at least not without causing a bunch of other problems. Purely based on the responses I've read, it comes off as though the original system of slapping PNG's on a mesh caused issues with supporting their future plans which forced them into finding a solution to maintain the old stuff while still moving forward with the new stuff... If I recall correctly, they referred to moving everything over to one unified system that supports all new features and their intention was to get everything 1:1 with all of the old features as well for those who prefer the old look. Obviously they failed at that, but at least they made an effort to maintain it and didn't just remove them and call it a day which literally would have been erasing their identity. As for the requirements for publishing games, I've already mentioned how I'm against that, but I'm also not going to sit here and pretend like it's not going to make Roblox a safer platform... Realistically that's what we wanted and there's only so many options to effectively pull that off. Beggars can't be choosers I guess.

RoRapTV (@RoRapTV) reportedWith @Roblox’s new terms of service update, when you agree to the terms you’re signing a waiver so you cannot sue Roblox. And if you’re a minor your parents are responsible for your actions online. This means if you get groomed, or have something happen on Roblox or while using Roblox you cannot sue them.

n.imble (@nimb1es) reported@Roblox @FIMUSFIM Please fix alternate account linked enforcement bans. I’ve lost my developer income because of it. I have no other accounts other than my main account.

Ina | depths (back from 1 yr hiatus!) 🌒🔱 (@everdepths) reportedTikTok is part of my job, which I’d prefer to keep separate from my personal accounts since it’s a completely different type of content (Roblox, not WF, etc). But I can’t, because some days my accounts just get bricked with 0 views. How do I fix this? 🫥

beelzebub (@HugoGabrie36671) reported@Roblox HELLO! @Roblox @Roblox_RTC I've been stuck in the Vietnam (VNG) region for a YEAR while living in Brazil! Your support only sends BOT replies. I am a real user being ignored. Fix my region! This is a violation of consumer rights. Help! TIK#154486552

Nicholas Mugalli (@RealNickMugalli) reported$RBLX bookings are up 220% in five years. The stock is down 27%. That divergence is not an anomaly or a market mispricing. It is the market making a precise judgment about the difference between a business that generates engagement and a business that generates profit. Roblox is not a software company. It is a virtual economy — and virtual economies have structural problems that don't appear in the booking line. Every dollar of bookings flows through a system where Roblox pays developers through the DevEx program, subsidizes free to play with cheap Robux, and recognizes revenue over the estimated lifetime of engagement rather than at point of sale. The gap between bookings and GAAP revenue is not accounting noise — it reflects how much of the top line never becomes income. The operating loss structure is the real story. Roblox has generated over $3.5B in cumulative net losses since going public. The company burns cash on infrastructure, safety moderation, and creator payouts at a rate that has not meaningfully declined as a percentage of bookings. Scale was supposed to fix this. Five years and 220% booking growth later, profitability is still forward guidance, not present reality. The demographic problem compounds it. Roblox was built on an 8–12 year old user base. That cohort ages out — and when a 12 year old turns 16, they leave for Fortnite, Discord, and TikTok. The replacement cohort is younger, has lower spending power, and faces more parental controls on in app purchases. Daily active users keep growing but average bookings per user have been under structural pressure for three years. The stock peaked at over $130 in late 2021 — pricing a metaverse narrative at 30× bookings. The market eventually repriced for what the business actually produces: a platform with extraordinary user engagement, a broken monetization structure, and no clear path to the margin profile that the 2021 multiple assumed. Bookings measure what users spend inside the platform. The stock measures what investors expect to extract from it. Five years of data have answered which number was telling the truth…

Cullen Diethron (@lorddiethorn) reported@Bl4udari @Pirat_Nation it’s all of then roblox which is the real problem xbox sony and steam gog epic they all have to do it. they lose like 10 million dollars each time they don’t do no company is going to burn all that cash

placeholder (@placeholder8877) reported@wariocolosseum if you think roblox was every going to be just for the little kids, im starting to think ur the issue people will take egeneral audience over actual ratings and forget that roblox has always has the [insert number]+ rating MEANING YES FOR OLDER AGES TOO

Orietta Rose 🇺🇲 (@0riettaRose) reported@xoHouNai Unfortunately a lot of predators use Roblox knowing kids are on it. There's a lot of inappropriate user-made content on there. The open chat feature is a huge problem, especially.
-
Allen Keckonen🥕/FredChrist (@fredchristNFT) reported@NotSoEasyMoney The problem is the few years part. It's a matter of time before something else like Roblox but AI personalized pops up. All these kids play different **** every week to follow the meme. AI will speed that up and the new games will be even faster/shittier but ultimately a quicker buck for the devs.

レイ (@RayStudio_YT) reportedMy damn BBN idea The FNaF animatronics were thrown into another universe after a timeline glitch. People there didn’t know them, so a research team gave them temporary names. Springtrap = The Rotten. Same character, different world. #BiteByNight #fnaf #roblox

2K Robux Giveaway | Fed Games (@FedorianDev) reported@Neatz0 Bonus points for when Roblox releases a game destroying update and you're away "relaxing" unable to fix it for a few days while your CCU crashes in a blaze of glory 😎

Chuy2k9official-OnYT (@JaydenC66224410) reported@Roblox Hello so recently i’ve been having problems with roblox, I can run fortnite, call of duty, cyberpunk2077 without having junky physics my character jumps and lags on a empty map even on a simple pet game i have a ps5 and yall need to work on optimization on console roblox.

RoUtility (@RoUtilityNews) reported@RoRapTV @Roblox @RoCatchers I can agree Dollhouse Roleplay is definitely, and has been an issue since. The game has been deleted like 15 times, and the original owner doesn't even know what's going on with the game. People have been reuploading the same game a bunch of times, I guess Roblox doesn't take action just like how they don't care about UGC items that interpolate 1:1 limiteds.

BSlick (@BSlickComposer) reported@Vis3d_ @Roblox No clue but the system is definitely broken, and not working as intended “in my opinion”
-
🍭.*yuhie.*Nikolais one and only!🕊️💕 (@kolyaklowns) reported@VeryEvilMiku @Roblox no they managed to change my location but the only problem is the system still thinks I’m on VNG, people on Reddit said it’s a bug
-
Jason Cherrington (@jasoncherringt1) reported@FL1NTZ @GamingSinceNES They're attempting the live service games because they want that 1 game like Fortnite or Roblox where they hit the jackpot and basically get a licence to print money for years!! What platform wouldnt want a juggernaut like that? It only takes 1 to really hit and theyre laughing

Dani (@ShanizamD) reportedThis (silent) update is quite good for the bad actors to dealt with. But for some reason, this could be a mass issues too. Why? Roblox moderation's AI system can falsely-flagged someone (innocent) to break a rules without any warning. #RBLX #Roblox

★ alexa !?! (@alxiyo) reported@xJos_hy I’ve moved on and re made my group , got verified and everything, my issue is people mass stealing my stuff because they see my group is locked / holder is banned theives are mass stealing my stuff and Roblox isn’t doing anything half of my dmca emails get ignored and I can’t use the rights manager

Simeon's Art (Roblox=simonethesadboy) (@Simeoncreations) reported@xxx1169670 @Roblox I share the a with 3 people in my household and believe me I don't want to get banned if they do. Roblox fix this it's a huge issue

Zak (Mostly Inactive 📚) (@Zak_MVS) reported@JustThero @ActualDuncachi Yall gotta stop expecting people to fix the entire game in an afternoon especially when its made with roblox and its weird updates
-
SirD 🇺🇸 (@Sir_Dammed) reported@Mcgillionaire1 @TyriasRC @ShitpostRock2 I would even go so far as to say it's one of the worst video games ever made, at least in the AAA space. Sure, you could find some random ******* 8-year-old's Roblox-adjacent indie project that is half broken and terrible, but that's not exactly a fair comparison. We need to judge Veilguard for what it is. A AAA game made by a once beloved studio, and a sequel of a once beloved franchise. On those grounds alone, it's top 10-20 worst video games of all time.

Zee (@PlasticSklyFish) reportedHi. To whoever it may concern, due to recent ROBLOX updates and some internal issues, i've decided to retire from this platform. A video will be made showcasing all of the work made for games that were in production. Apologies to anyone that was looking forward to them.
-
MATS (@Matsbxb) reported@SRSLDNX @haz3m_ I don't really think its a problem of "taking advantage", i mean Roblox wasn't doing it, it was unmet demand, he was highly clever to see that opportunity at that time. But it was always going to be a temporary opportunity, this is no surprise. Times change.

Calcium桃🍑🇯🇵🇯🇵 (@XVPbhwyyKr61371) reportedMy kids and my nephews are all obsessed with Roblox. They’re all boys, so I’ve been strictly telling them, “Never share personal information, and if any weird adult approaches you, tell me right away!” My children actually listen when I nag them, so I feel relatively safe for now… but apparently there are more and more problems worldwide with adults doing inappropriate things to kids on Roblox, and regulations are tightening. As a parent, it does make me a little anxious. I suddenly caught myself thinking, “If only their playmates were AI instead, they wouldn’t have to worry about becoming victims of anything creepy.” But the thing is, online games get boring when your friends aren’t online, and it feels dead during off-peak hours, right? I really wish there were games where AI could play like real users, not just as regular NPCs.
