"1. The mod is always right. What the mod says, goes."
It would be the same for the 13+ section
"2. If you have a question about any of these rules, or if you have a question about your ban, PM a mod or contact info@roblox.com. Do not post about your ban on the forum. If you post about your ban on the forum, you may get banned again."
Addenum: If you are banned on the 13+ forum, you are not allowed to use that section again. Were suppposed to be more mature and more responsible than ROBLOX's younger users, so this would be fair
"3. You are expected to abide by the spirit of these rules. What does that mean? That means that if the rule says "Do not talk about purple things" and you post talking about violet things, or lavender things, then you will get banned. (No, you are not being forbidden from talking about purple things. That was just an example). Do not try to find loopholes in the rules. You will be banhammered if you do."
A rule usually not enforced in the normal forums but certainly should be, and it would in 13+
"4. Don't cuss. Period. It has no place in our community. Attempts to disguise bad language or bypass the language filters will not be tolerated."
MINOR and OCCASIONAL swears should be allowed in a 13+ forum, but not anything major.
"5. Don't be a jerk. You’re welcome to disagree with another member’s opinion but attacking (flaming) and insulting another member is not acceptable. Intentionally starting flame wars WILL cause you to be banned for a while."
This rule should not exist in 13+. Older members should know how to conduct themselves around trolls, but if it would get out of hand, then banning is sure.
You can say "I disagree, and here is why". You can NOT say "I disagree and I think you suck". You can say "I do not like racing games". You can NOT say "This player has built a racing game and I hate it".
Again, nonexistent on 13+. "You suck" shouldn't hurt a mature persons feelings whatsoever. " "
"6. No degrading racial comments are allowed. I shouldn't even have to say this. Seriously, you guys. Don't hate."
Addenum: Harrassing about orentation would and should not be allowed on 13+ forum either.
"7. No inappropriate references. There’s no question that Internet is full of degrading inappropriate material and comments. Roblox is fully G-rated, it must be KEPT that way. This will get you instantly banned. If you are not sure if the thing you want to talk about it okay to talk about, PM a mod and ask."
Another unenforced rule on Roblox, but it would be PG13 or lower.
This means no talking about anything R-rated, drugs, or any dating topic (including furries).
Dating topic should be allowed unless it gets out of hand, and serious conversations on drugs should be allowed on 13+ forum as well.
"8. No Politics. No Religion. We prefer that members not get involved in political or religious discussions because they often result in flaring tempers and flame wars. Yes, you may make a religious or political shirt. Yes, you may make a religious or political game. No, you may not talk about your political views or religious ideals on the forum. No exceptions."
This would not exist in a 13+ forum. This is in place because of idiot trolls, and serious conversations on either topic should be ENCOURAGED.
"10. No whining about moderation This mostly applies to the operation and moderation of the online community. Members will be banned, threads removed, and so on based on the clearly defined rules. Publicly bemoaning the operation of the community and the way the rules are enforced will not put you in good favor with the moderators. If you have a legitimate concern or suggestion, PM a moderator. This also includes "pity threads", meaning ones proclaiming you're leaving, my cat died, etc."
People would not be allowed back on the 13+ forum after being banned, so this should not, in theory, be a problem
"11. No spamming. akdjfaskhj is spam. Posting the same thing over and over is spam. Responding to somebody with a short pointless comment like tl;dr or inb4b& is spam AND it's rude. Don't do this. If you are going to take the time to post on the forum, make sure that you actually have something to say."
Agreed.
Using horrible grammar and spelling is a form of spamming. Making a typo or spelling a word wrong is not spamming. tieping liek dis lawl is spamming.
"12. No dangerous or harmful posts. Posts that encourage members to participate in real-world activities that we deem to be harmful or dangerous to members will be deleted (i.e. lighting things on fire, jumping cars over people, deleting necessary computer files, etc.)."
Everyone savvy enough, as the older people on this forum, should know not to delete system32 off your computer.
"14. No dating topics. This isn't a dating help site. Keep topics about dating and relationships, be it online or not, out of here. Do not post asking for girlfriend advice. Do not post asking for a boyfriend. Do not post talking about the cute girl or boy in your class. Do not post asking how to ask somebody out. There are a lot of places online where you can talk about dating: Roblox is not one of those places. If you are not sure if it's okay to post, do not post it."
Should be allowed unless it starts to get out of hand.
"16. No offsite links. At all. None. No wikipedia, no YouTube, no fan sites. If the address does not start with http://www.roblox.com/, then you may not post it here. No exceptions."
I never have agreed with this. Offsite links should be allowed in 13+ forum, but idiots who abuse this to links of obscene websites will be banned.
"18. Do not talk about 2012/the end of the world/Armageddon. Some people get scared at the thought of the end of the world. There are little kids on this game - don't scare them."
Should be allowed on 13+ forum. Again, serious conversation on this topic would be encouraged.
If you think ROBLOX should add a section to the Forums exclusively to 13+ members, add your name to the petition below.

Get people thinking.
Roblox added the 13+ feature, so we should have more. |

| Why? There is tons of us who are that age or older, and in order for Roblox to keep our attention, they should somewhat cater to us. |

what happened to roblox being user friendly? now it's split up into who's 13+ and who's not? it doesn't really matter anyways, because it's so easy to lie about your age which means immature children are only going to abuse this |

"Dating topic should be allowed unless it gets out of hand"
No.
I don't know anyone who DOESN'T lie about their age...
Do you want 7 year olds pretending to be 13 dating some online freak?
And it not being report-able? |
