This is something I would really like to get off my chest in the forums if the moderators don't mind (I'll try my best to abide by the forum rules!). Something that has truly made me take a disliking into some aspects ROBLOX staff would like to call "moderating".
This past evening, I decided to log onto ROBLOX to see what has been up with a group ([ Content Deleted 528072 ]) and check how they're progress is. But instead I find a group which is raising awareness of a war dictator, Joseph Kony (Which some of you may have heard of in the past few weeks), to be striked or Content Deleted, as it states on the group. Following it, I was appalled. The group was simply just that - a group of people who are trying to keep awareness of a problem. Just like ROBLOX did with SOPA. I can understand some people stating that "This is a grown-up problem, keep it out of ROBLOX.", but SOPA was also a 'grown-up problem' however ROBLOX still decided to advertise it to a G-rated game. I've read over the guidelines and nowhere does the group ever do anything against the rules*.
*If the group was reported upon it being offensive, offensive means being highly irritating, angering, or annoying. However, I never reported any clans even though some of their members had successfully completed their motives as 'offensive'.
Not anywhere does the group do any of the activities listed on the Community Rules page. The group was either deleted by a moderator who was biased to the matter of Joseph Kony or a moderator whom was lazy to not understand the community rules and guidelines of ROBLOX. This is not the fun game that was promised to everyone who originally registered. I like to thank you for reading this far out in my subject. I'd request for the group to be given back its original stature as of the time before it was deleted, but it would be ignored.
If anyone has anything else they wish to say on this subject, I'd be much obliged for you to do so. Thanks once again. |

| I didn't read all of it, but SOPA applied to ROBLOX. Kony doesn't. |

| Anything related to any type of disaster / dictator will be deleted. The 2012 threads, the German Regime, and all stuff in that category can be deleted. |

I appreciate everyone's patience who've read this article - thank you.
Too anyone who wishes for a TL;DR:
ROBLOX falsely deleted a group which hadn't broken any rules. |

| @chaosflyer You bring up a very valid point, however Joseph Kony has been doing the same acts for the last twenty years. I would say that is long enough a wait to be allowing something as that. |

Well, I see where you're coming from.
On the other hand, SOPA was for adults, but Mr. Kony is more for adults. |
