You should be allowed to see swear words, but only if you want them to show.

Like, they'll be shown as something like: #### you.

Yes, I didn't really say it, that's just what it'll look like. If you change your settings, you'll see and there won't be hashtags.

They should be an age to see swear words that get covered up.

This is actually not a bad idea, much better than just getting rid of censoring. If the parents are supervising their children enough to see them disabling censoring it's their fault if it happens.

Believe it or not, kids these days are smart.

1: They've most likely had the Internet their entire lives, and have gradually adapted to it better than their parents have. They likely have a couple tricks up their sleeves in order to keep their parents from knowing what they've been up to online. Trust me, I used to do it all the time.

2: They HATE being told what to do and being restricted. If they know that there are swear words on a game and there's an option to make them uncensored, they WILL make them uncensored. Kids these days like to pretend they're adults, so they swear a lot and make inappropriate adult jokes. Where do you think they learn these things from? Either the INTERNET or a couple of bad friends they have. If it's the latter, where do you think the bad friends learned these things from? The INTERNET, other bad friends, or bad parents.

2.5: "Oh, they wouldn't be able to uncensor them because their parents would get mad.". NOT when kids have tricks up their sleeves that their parents will overlook (see 1) and they have enough motivation to bypass the rules that they'll make sure not to get caught (see 2). If the parents were so protective that there would be NO way to get around them, then I highly doubt that the child would be on the Internet for long. One s3xy ad on the side of the page and BOOM! Privileges taken!

3: Even if the words aren't censored, kids WILL know what those words are as long as they already have knowledge of swear words. It's not hard to guess that ### is the A-word, and you can use context clues to find out what #### means. And if they're like me, then they'll end up reading the hashtags as swear words anyway in their minds, so the censor is basically useless. "Oh, we'll let them hear the word and think the word, but to let them READ the word is preposterous! Good grief!"

So let's just keep them censored. This IS a kids game, and it will always be a kids game. It doesn't matter how many teens play it, it's still a kids game. I doubt that parents would appreciate a checkbox saying "Remove Censor" on the Settings list. All their little boy or baby girl needs to do is click that check, and a whole new world will be opened up for them. Good for child development! :D ... -_-

Your whole post is essentially that kids know what they are doing on the internet but if parent's aren't watching their kids internet use properly to be able to know they disabled it they can't complain because it's completely their fault.

@drbouncyballs

That doesn't excuse the breaking of a site rule.

While you type out what you're going to say on Roblox, you think about what you're typing. It goes through your mind whether or not you really WANT to say this, and then after that, you (I hope) think whether or not you really SHOULD say this. When you want to type out "Oh f***" when something surprises you or you messed something up or whatever else happens, you need to take into consideration that the word you're choosing to say is NOT allowed to be said on Roblox. It doesn't matter how old you are, whether you're 8 years old or 80 years old, it is NOT ALLOWED.

There is a whole English language full of other words to use. So use them. Honestly, excessive swearing is just a sign that you have a terrible vocabulary, since you seem to be limited only to THOSE words.

Swear all you want in real life, but NOT on a site where it SPECIFICALLY says that swearing is NOT allowed. There are so many other words to use, words that are appropriate for the site, so use those instead.

Don't get rid of the actual swear words, but censoring Harry Potter, and kit kat is idiotic. (I filter-passed those words)

I don't want them being so age protective, It makes members quit, but they termite the people who are not quitters, the BCers, they loose money.
