Roblox has robust parental controls, including blocking all forms of chat entirely. If parents fail to use them, as is nearly always the case in modern cases where children are chatting with predators, that’s on the parents. There literally isn’t a solution that isn’t either require an id to access online services, which is a no go in any intelligent society, or disabled chat on any game that a child could reasonably access, which would kill online gaming entirely.
If they have parental controls, I definitely agree they’re doing a sizable chunk of their job right there. I just thought it was worth mentioning as it wasn’t part of your “doing everything you can do” bit.
Either way, the point i was going for is that minors should not be given money converted into “currency” to spend in online stores that are set up like casinos.
Microsoft Rewards gives you 100 robux for every 10 days where you search 32 days with Bing legitimately. So what happens is I get Microsoft to spend on “crypto”.
Once they turn 18, you can’t even control what they do. If they’ve never used any money before, you bet they’re gonna trash it all.
Not saying if they do or don’t, but if you’re going to target kids, extremely robust parental controls should also be obligatory.

kids will just make a new account to evade the parental controls. they don’t really work ime
You can hold their previous achievements hostage and only give Robux on the original account.
NO
Fair enough. I get Robux through Microsoft Rewards though, and I’d rather Microsoft lose money than Roblox.
Presumably you are an adult lol

They can play with crypto once they turn 18!
