Some ads are 18+ if you are NBC.
Reporting an ad does not work( I reported once, waited for 24 hours, and it's still there.)
If this is a kids website, then why is there 18+ ads?

| the ads are from google, which means they are based on your previous searches. If there are 18+ ads then stop googling 18+ things. |

The adverts are ran externally by Google AdSense. Google AdSense displays adverts based on the context of the page, what you have searched and the webpages that you have visited. If you are seeing adverts which are meant for a more mature audience, it's usually your fault as you've been on an associated website.
Whilst yes, ROBLOX can block particular adverts/whitelist certain adverts, I still feel it's not really their problem considering that the adverts are shown based on what you have been doing. |

| @ez If you really don't want them, you will notice a small 'x' in one of the corners. This blocks that type of ad for you. |

| Agreed, they should remove google adds. They are not for kids, is this not a kids game or what? I'm a young player at only 10 years old, they are disturbing. Its basicly online p0-n and it shouldn't be on the game. |

As the guy said above me. Get AdBlock, and seriously, showing advertisements to little kids are very unsafe. They want ROBLOX to be safe for everyone. They be trollin.

Support. More NBC's play rather than BC, so they will be seeing more ads. Plus, wouldn't it make more sense to have ROBLOX ads in the first place (no matter if you have BC, NBC)? |

| @Stone the reason NBC get ads is so Roblox doesn't have millions of accounts not generating any revenue. Ad revenue is a way we can pay Roblox without it actually being our money, which is how they manage to keep it F2P. |

People tell me that it's based off of your search history, but even after I clear my search history, I get 18+ ads for visiting facebook.

| @Data it's from your google search history. Google collects data on its users so that it only displays ads related to their searches on google.com. |

| Use Google Chrome and get the Adblock add-in. It works wonders for me. |
