Okay, You have to be 13 + to actually socialize with the vast community, I am aware that you think roblox is not a social site, but in all reality - we know it is. Characters, chatting, friends, best friends, shouts, groups, statuses.. Come on, Doesn't get much more social than that. The building is basically an app. Moving onto the point of this - Roblox is childishly designed, but the community either lies about their age to get in, or is "PG'd". Why is roblox designed like this when it incorporates scripts and architectural elements?
My suggestion to end many conflicts listed in here is this - sever roblox.
What I mean is create subdomains like kid.roblox.com and teen.roblox.com.
kid.roblox.com - For a child audience. This is for people UNDER 13. No safe chatters, all the socialization, and the same building capabilities. All games (teen and kid built) will be shown to them, unless the author of the game wishes otherwise, but the servers for kids will be only listed on the kid site, and teens on the teen site.. This way, kids wont have to worry about being bullied by teens and teens don't have to be annoyed by kids (if they do get annoyed by kids.)
teen.roblox.com - Teen built games are the only featured ones (Basically based off of the fact that most teenagers (true teenagers) would dislike playing the MOSTLY poorly built games of the kids. If the game is well rated, and is still made by a kid, it will still be featured on the teen site. This would be allowable by introducing a new place rating system (below), Also, the website would feature more mature things and designs. No nudity or anything, just more teen directed rather than kid directed. The rules will still be applied, such as no swearing, but admins will (or should) be less strict.
This way similar audiences can be at ease. Also, this should end conflicts involving people hating safe chat.
TL;DR - Read it or leave. Posting TL;DR is spam, therefor will be reported. Thank you.
-- Almost forgot, The place rating feature - If the kids like it, they rate it well. Then it gets bumped to the teens site. If the teens rate it well, it stays. If too many rate it poorly, it is pushed back down for a year, then will be given another try in case of possible updates and whatnot that might have increased the likeability of the game.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Thanks for reading (if you did.) |

| @TheNegativitron - Nice name snipe, anyways if the child lies, it is their responsibility if they are pushed away from the community, if they can handle it though, They should jump right in. It is more than just teens, but mature users. |

I am tired of saying "Crap" or "Hell" in games and having people say "dood i am reporting you because u swear". I just came from a Catholic school grades P - 8th and saying "Shut Up" infront of K - 2nd graders ended up in them telling their teachers, which then told the nun principal, then me being sent down for saying "Shut Up". I told her "Is shut up really that bad?" She would say "It isnt respectful". I would say "Bit** leave me alone!".

Well... the re-titling is getting annoying, but I am guessing that was a support. Thank you.
Also, I forgot to add: If you do not support, please explain why so I can possibly improve the idea. |

| Support. Even though I'm n 4th Grade, I'm quite Mature. I don't say "u" or "plz". The Teen site would have "Superior" scary games. And, you can curse. And, Teens don't spam. The kids think spam is a game or funny so they just do spam. |

| Exactly, and I have nothing against you, You seem rather mature for your age. In my example, you would simply be one of the people who can venture into the teen site if you wish. It is more for mature people than simply just teens. |

| ROBLOX does not particularly 'care' how old their players are, creating "Kid.roblox.com" & "Teen.roblox.com" would cost money to run the site (Exactly like this one) They also have friends only places + admin to kick people unwanted if you're a teen and you don't want some 8 year old to follow you and say, "i lke tixes, don8 me tixes" Anyways kid/teen, it doesn't matter, younger people 9-12 are a lot more joyous then you think. No need to be snotty. |

| Perhaps then, just a character setting that edits roblox's appearance, and what you experience rather than just completing a whole new site. Saves money, and still achieves the same goal. |

| @Emodude, Also, I am not trying to sound "snotty" as you stated, note I said that more mature users would be the users of the teen feature/site. I love the enthusiasm kids bring into the world, BUT some do at times get somewhat annoying. Sorry if you are a single child, but if you have a younger sibling, I am positive you have been annoyed by them at LEAST one time. |

You wouldn't have to create another website. Similar to roblox.com/Forum, it could be roblox.com/Teens for the teen site, and roblox.com for the kids site.

| I am in sixth grade and I am very mature but I am not a teen and not a little kid either. also the games on the kid site would suck because 6 yr olds would make them. |

@daniel Not all noobs are kids. Most successful trolls/noobs are intelligent older ones.
@Idea I say no. Why isn't one site good? I mean sure this is kid based but there are advanced objects. There is scripting right? While anyone can pursue it, you gotta put some brain into it. If you can't handle it then go to MC or something.

not really sure if i can support this, because this would sorta be like dividing the fan base. roblox is a game for all people of all ages.
i also think that since people tend to lie about their age when making their accs, it would sorta be pointless to add the 2 domains or 2 other websites, and then have accs divided into those 2 websites. but, i appreciate that you don't crap post like some other people do on s&i :P. i have to admit it is not a bad idea though.
it's just that i think the community should be united as one, because this game is for all ages. |

| to add on to my argument, "predators" may make fake accs under the 13+ age to try to dox the little kids under the kid domain. the smallers kids may be tricked into giving out personal info, and a site specially made for people under 13+ is a predator's heaven. |
