(tl;dr warning)
I have noticed of a new trend of ROBLOX videos, videos complaining about this "Uncanny Valley".
So I decided to learn more, but I had more questions.
Where did these people come from?
Is this is worst of the ROBLOX community?

In case you didn't know, according to greenlegocat (aka cowcow), Uncanny Valley is a community of people who use ROBLOX to dress up their character and turn it to their personas, which would be on Twitter. According to greenlegocat, most of them are extremely rude, and are ODer s. They rush friendships to take pictures.
Thankfully, this seems to happen mostly on twitter.

I have to wonder...
Is it time for me to let go of Roblox?

I could be doing something more useful, like going outside, and being productive, or at least, be playing a game with a better community.
But nope, I'm playing with the same kind of people who does this.
Frankly, the ROBLOX community has become garbage, with its old players and it's new ones.
ODer s aren't even most of the problem. It's the 63 year old men who starts these trends, and the kids who don't know any better follow the bandwagon.

Speaking of ODer s, the way most people handle them could be better.
Most of the time, (from what I've seen.) they are harassed. I don't support this but I bet half of the time they don't know what they're doing wrong. Yelling at them makes things worse, most of the time.
I prefer to let them know that they are breaking the rules, and report them.
"B-but reporting doesn't work!" You may say.
It doesn't work because nobody reports them.
ODer s are at an all time low right now, I went to once ODer infested games and saw little to none of them.
Now, the old players.
Most of them (from my experience, anyway) are people who either A. Rant about ROBLOX every 5 seconds but they don't quit or B. Has the "If you're dressed like a human you're an ODer!" mentality or C. both.

The new players usually make up most of the ODer population, and of course, the Uncanny Valley population, because they don't know what they're doing wrong.

That is my opinion on the community. It has problems in it's old and it's new players.

I have a problem with your complaint.


I dont care if people are dressed like normal humans. But have you noticed that EVERY roblox oder that wears ice arms and legs, yawn faces, e.t.c, monkey covering eyes hat, Im A Spy Cap, is basically 90% oder?

If they dress like me, for example, ok. Nothing exactly wrong. Just some glasses and a shirt and shorts and some hair. Ok. But EVERYONE that I see wearing ice arms, yawn faces, the monkey hat, are all basically trying to look cool and get a date?

I know some people dress like that and arent, but most people are. They are trying to look superhuman.

in other words, they are just a bunch of social rejects that think they are cool.


At least you tried. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@Co
From what I've seen, they called me a ODer even if I had clothes that had sleeves and and covered up all the stuff you would see in a ODer.

if you're really thinking you should be doing something other than roblox you should probably just leave
