If they are trying to make realistic gameplay, why can't we interact realistically on the forums? Life isn't a cup of tea garnished with cherries.

Any time there is any controversy or discord, the thread is immediately deleted.

Why?

that's not the case, people just word it in a way that would provoke a negative flame war instead of an intellectual debate. this community doesn't know how to act maturely with each other.

This is about realism. There are idiots in real life. Do we ban them from life for exhibiting stupidity? No, we make a reality television show about it.

@mx

Your lack of ability to formulate a legitimate abstraction isn't a fault of my own.

If you would, please leave.

And to clear away the haze, the forums and gameplay are both relevant to ROBLOX.

What an exhibition of miraculous stupidity.

physics =/= a board for discussing said physics bruh

do you have no other argument than to call me stupid cause thats weak man defend ur point lol

REALISM in a games physics has nothing to do with the REALISM of a forums discussion

and aren't their laws against hate speech irl so not allowing controversy is actually pretty realistic

I will confess, I did adulterate my argument with an ad hominem attack. Also, though, I did explain that they are both relevant to roblox. That is an undeniable fact. Your claim "physics =/= a board for discussing said physics bruh" is derived from opinion, bruh.

If there are laws about "hate speech", they conflict enlightenment values (of which america was founded upon) and should be abolished at the hour. Opinions need to be expressed. When they fester within, disasters occur.

how is that even slightly an opinion

by that logic no game forum for a game with even semi-realistic physics shouldn't have rules because then that's not realistic

you're taking what a moderator said and using it entirely out of context for your own argument that you should be able to start flamewars because it's "realistic" like gameplay

and gameplay

is not

the forums--

It is an opinion, because it is not an observable axiom of reality. I just put the following info out there: As roblox seems to favor realism, why do they not demonstrate similar fondness within there forums. My original intent was to ask a question, not start an argument (not that mind arguing). I apologize for implying that you are stupid, I really do, but i stand by my argument adamantly (as I am now arguing).

because forums are not the same thing they literally have no relevance to gameplay whatsoever despite the fact that they'e for discussing said gameplay

why you think it is unrealistic to have rules is baffling as it's like the opposite. why would you want to allow people to start controversial fights when the core demographic of this game is for 8-14 y/os that are in no way capable of discussing anything 'controversial'

Early exposure is favorable, in my opinion (See Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart). And you make the claim "why you think it is unrealistic to have rules is baffling as it's like the opposite". I'd like to see a whole reply devoted to explaining the truth behind that claim, if you don't mind constructing one. Also, I would like to be shown the exact phrase where I stated "it is unrealistic to have rules", preferably verbatim (I am not guilty of that, so it is lamentable that you will not be able to present that bit of information).

Just to remind you,
ROBLOX is mainly supposed to be a kids game. If everything here was but into nice big words and we were all mature, then I guess Eve never bit an apple.

tbh i don't want my 10 y/o sister getting into a fight over religion/real life laws/other literal controversial discussions and i'm satisfied that roblox does not allow that as i can comfortably let her play and browse the forums as she wishes

you have been implying this entire time since the beginning of the thread that it is not realistic to make controversy against the rules because gameplay is aimed to be realistic. that is why i am telling you that the two are not relevant. they're not comparable, there is no way for there to be an inconsistency. that's like saying "i hate how oranges are orange and chocolate is brown. that's so inconsistent." they're entirely different things of no comparison whatsoever

"If they are trying to make realistic gameplay, why can't we interact realistically on the forums? Life isn't a cup of tea garnished with cherries.

controversial threads being deleted is enforcing rules, you think that is unrealistic and that is where i am getting my argument from and as the aforementioned simile states they're really just. not things to be compared with at all.

A mighty redundant post. This was previously expressed. I am an advocate for the raising of intellectual standards for those my age, so this argument doesn't phase me.

ROBLOX is not a children's site.
It is simply played by them.

maybe view this in the eyes of the corporation in charge of making sure the game is safe kids rather than yourself

if this game wasn't aimed at kids it'd be fine but. it's still referred to as a kids entertainment website.

if i were to view it in my own opinion i'd probably side with you because i'm slightly above the target demographic for this game and sometimes it's interesting to see younger generations opinion

but that's not how kids websites work

For one, I'd like to ask why you wouldn't want your sister to be a knowledgable human being. 10 year olds are more capable than you may believe. Mozart composed his first piece of music at 5, half your sister's age.

You have yet to explain why forums and gameplay are both irrelevant to ROBLOX.


""...literal controversial discussions and i'm satisfied that roblox does not allow that as i can comfortably let her play and browse the forums as she wishes"

Roblox allowing the discussion of controversial topics is a liberation of your sister's will, not an abridgement of it.

i'm not gonna get into your opinions on what little kids should know considering how irrelevant it is

and yeah i have

because one is gameplay. for games. and playing. and the other is for various discussions.

they are different things.
