Lately there has been an increasing amount of "joke" or "throwaway" accounts being made, along with this, some of those users have created highly inappropriate and crude places. It is important to remember that Roblox is aimed towards a younger age group, but can be played by those of all ages. Younger users should not be exposed to such subjects, especially on Roblox.

So, my simple suggestions are to:
1. Require email verification in order to create an account on Roblox.
2. Support IP banning.
3. Implement place moderation.

Although IP banning and place moderation may be flawed ideas in some way, email verification seems to be my highest priority. Such a simple action could discourage multiple alternate accounts from being made, as it is extremely simple to create a new user at the moment. This could stop the throwaway accounts from being made indefinitely, and may make Roblox a better website for all age groups once again. This also means that there could be decreasing amount of hackers/cheaters, spammers, and inappropriate places.

I hope my suggestions are taken under concideration by the administrators of Roblox.com, and I thank all of those who took the time to read this.

Place moderation is implanted I thought, as in, ROBLOX deletes bad places.
I also believe IP Banning is in.

The email verification won't change much, either.

No support.

@Backfiring
Hey, thanks for pointing that out. I would really appreciate it if I could see a source on IP banning, though. I do not believe I have ever heard of that being in Roblox.
Also, if it isn't too much trouble, could you tell me how you personally think you could solve the indefinite creation of throwaway accounts? I posted this hoping people would post their ideas, as well as pointing out any flaws in mine. Thanks again!

I'm not sure where my proof of the IP Banning feature is, I've just heard of a lot of people being IP banned on ROBLOX.

Well, about the alts.
Perhaps they could cut down on how many alts your computer may create, using your IP, yet that may not be effective seeing some people have more than one computer.

I honestly can't think of anything.
