Probably put a limit on how many words a day you can say/message or post on the forums, before you get forced to use safe chat until the very next day.

BC members can talk as much as they want without any limit.

@maxa_boy

This isn't censorship though. It's monetising of an asset.

Chat/Messaging is an asset to roblox, and you'll find that they have a lot of control over it already. They've already set regulations and rules such as filters.

It's not true. But if it ever does become true, I'd definitely like credit, and perhaps lifetime supply of BC.

Although I find the filters very annoying, you can't blame them for using them.

ROBLOX's credibility to parents has gone downhill, and they're making an attempt to earn it back. They probably won't, but they decided it was worth a try. They're making the attempt to please both the parents and the users, who happen to have the exact opposite beliefs of where the site should go, so it's a very difficult task.

i wasn't referring to what you were talking about hypothetically, i was talking about roblox in present day.

i mean, of course it has to be "capitalistic" because it's a business. it needs to maintain and upkeep a website with over 12 million people online at once while managing real-world finances.

that'd be more of a communist thing to do.

and i don't doubt that roblox leans left, so they would do something to do that extent probably.

Roblox's filter was made for the purpose of preventing kids from doing #### things, yet they end up finding a way around that, like most online games with a filter. And because of this parents end up bashing the game through the news; because of this, roblox must've made the filter more strict so parents will give the game a second chance, but at this point it's too late and parents have put this on the list of games that "no kid should play".

nope. communism would be complete censorship to prevent any defiance towards communism.

Capitalism is effectively making money off something you own. Roblox owns its chat system. If they chose to make money off of it, that would be completely capitalistic. Very right winged and elitist too.

He's correct on that.

But it's not something they're doing at this point in time.
