I have recently been playing on games like “Different town of ROBLOXia”, and I have seen many online daters. Some go way too far, and lets just say, it isn't PG. Now, I have reported all the ones that I see, but it seems to me that ROBLOX do not punish people, or do not do it for long enough periods of time. I have an idea to lower the Online daters by there being “undercover mods” that go into games and can have the power to get into the “fast lane” of reporting. This would work by the “undercover mod” reporting people they see online dating, but they have the option to get into the beginning of the queue of reports. My guess is that with your system at ROBLOX there is a long queue of submitted reports that get checked by a moderator and the appropriate ban given. The fast lane would mean that the report would be put to the front of the queue with an “urgent” next to it, meaning that it had come from a “undercover mod” and should be checked immediately.


The “undercover mods” wouldn't have a badge on their profile, or any other meaning of recognizing them. Regular mods have badges on their profile and if I remember correctly symbols by their names, meaning that if anyone was OD’ing they would stop. The undercover mod wouldn't have any of these, just the option to “fast lane” report.


I believe this suggestion should be put through because it will benefit the ROBLOX community, and will lower the amount of online daters is they get enough warnings. It will also mean that it won’t pass on to younger children playing the game and will not encourage them to OD. When I first joined ROBLOX the games I played were full of OD’ers, I will admit it has gone down slightly, but will not stop unless action is taken.

They're probably just roleplay ODing. Like, I fake OD my friend Logan as a joke.

I see some people do some things that are very disturbing. Lets just say it was on a BED... People were even OD'ing in "Greenwood Town", the game with guns that is about a town of violence, people OD there. I was watching them threw a window and my brother ran in with a knife and killed both of them. Then they went to a tower and started to OD, then I sniped them. They the left probably to a game where lot of OD'ers are.

@Byann Yeah I do that too, but on games like that there's some real stuff going on. Like they will ask for your social media.

Baaad Opinion.

Too much hassle. Just don't play games that are plagued with ODers...

@above
True, but if they were undercover the whole point is to keep it a secret. The only way people could find out is if someone leaks it.

@above they probably wouldn't be allowed to because they're assigned by ROBLOX

What you saw was probably roleplaying. Roleplaying is different from online dating because it doesn't leave the game and become anything bigger. The only reason ROBLOX doesn't approve of ODing is because of the safety issues and the sometimes graphicness of it, but as long as it's non-graphic roleplaying, ROBLOX doesn't care.

Your "undercover mods" idea is way too risky and way too expensive. You can't just hire all the moderators you want; it doesn't work like that. Each moderator on here has time they could spend doing something else, people to support, and a set salary they need to survive. ROBLOX would be crushed by the weight of all these moderators just to solve the trivial matter of who's RP/ODing, and who isn't. Plus, if you just let regular players be "undercover mods," it's easily abusable as well as a WNTS.

Your "fast lane" reports would immediately become the "just as slow" or "slower" lane reports because all the "undercover mods" would be using this fast lane across all of ROBLOX's servers. It may become just as "backed up" as the regular report system, if that's even backed up.

I don't believe this idea is really worth all the trouble it would take to execute. It may sound well in theory, but that's not all you need to get a suggestion added around here.

I support this idea, although I do agree with @above that it would be a bit expensive.

@ruin3Ds
Although ROBLOX would only use people like DurstAuric or ones that can be trusted. How else do you propose that ROBLOX stops online daters? And let me tell you, some of it isn't RP'ing.

ROBLOX has given up on lowering or beating OD'ing, as shown by the millions of users being banned on the forums and the hundreds of users being banned in games.

Most ODers aren't serious, and they just wanna RP for an hour, not an entire life of virtual dating.

iFroggy I think thats a good idea for developers to do.Like the ones who mean for No ODing not those devs who dont care.They could send in some undercover people and those people will have admin.This problem could be taken care of the makers of those ODing games.That being said I do enjoy roleplaying but some games and people take it too far.We shouldn't ban those games just make it more secure.

If its just roleplaying, than I think it should be overseen, but if they're doing the real thing, then I Support this.
