Ok i know most of you are probably already thinking about posting "roblox is always gonna be a kid site". Im fully aware of this fact, but here is my idea.

you have an option in game settings, that only allows 13+ accounts into the game.
this would allow people to hang out with people they can actually talk to, and make sure a better level of maturity is maintained... once again i understand that there are just low lives out there that are over 13 that enjoy trolling, but life is life.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Problems and solutions

"everyone will make there games for 13+ only and there wont be any good games for people under 13"

not really. there will most likely be two versions of most games, 13+ and not 13+. this is for the same reason as BC games, people want to maximize their place visits, and only allowing certain people in would destroy that.

"segregation is wrong, and doesn't belong in roblox"

i do not believe in segregation, and this is not segregation considering 90% of the time they'll be two different versions of the game, one for 13+ and one for under 13.

"its no use, people will just lie about their age"

true, but what can you do?

"TL;DR no support, trololololol"

bye?

"This will multiply ODing"

i hate it when people use this excuse, because that's what it is, an excuse. nothing you do will necessarily cut down or add on to ODing, if someone wants to OD they're going to OD. end of story

any other problems you can think off, post them and ill prove them wrong, if possible.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Features

some of the features of 13+ places are....

obviously everyone will be able to talk, no question about it.

a slightly higher maturity level than -13 games.

you will get the same amount of tix from someone entering a 13+ place as a -13 place

Roblox remains a kid friendly community, while allowing slightly more mature people to come together, without young ones interfering.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
support?
great say so

No support?
please state why.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
thanks for actually reading the post, if you've gotten this far.
support or no support? if not why?

Were as i enjoy the dream of thirteen only games its just that a dream

Many robloxians would go there and think since its a thirteen only game they have special rights like swearing and Yes online dating

It would increase work for moderators and increase work for place owners
If you revise the idea and plan it out more i would probably support.

Who says that all 13+ are more mature than 13-? I've met PLENTY of 15 YOs that acted like they were 3.

while this is true, people will quickly learn that they don't. that's what a report system is for.

and revise and plan out how?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ROBLOX removed the BC Only Games because of the two versions. They said it was a failed concept since the majority of the games had a copy. Obviously ROBLOX doesn't want to go down this road again. Plus, I wouldn't want to click "Play" and it says "YOU MUST BE OVER 13 YEARS OF AGE TO PLAY THIS GAME. SORRY."

While I don't believe Online Dating will be an issue, reading the "features" makes me thing of games where dating is involved, like ROBLOX Spin the Bottle and such..

Young ones would flood the games anyways, and since the -13 users cannot talk, it doesn't mess with gameplay anyways. Doesn't mean that there aren't noobs over 13.

also true, but there would be no quests, and -13ers, that cant talk running around like idiots, and not knowing why everyone is mad at them because no one is able to tell them.

they probably would, and them not being able to talk, as stated in my previous post, isn't what messes with gameplay, the fact that no one can tell them what they're doing wrong does.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Nice smart-alecky move there judge...

i wasn't being a smart aleck, i was just saying i would try my best to show how an issue wouldn't exist

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>ROBLOX removed the BC Only Games because of the two versions. They said it was a failed concept since the majority of the games had a copy. Obviously ROBLOX doesn't want to go down this road again. Plus,

i CAN see why Roblox wouldn't want to go that road again, but this is a completely different concept.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wouldn't want to click "Play" and it says "YOU MUST BE OVER 13 YEARS OF AGE TO PLAY THIS GAME. SORRY."

I don't see how this could have a negative effect.

This would cause More moderation problems and reports to investigate(One of the problems they had with 2 versions of games (Bc-Nbc)) And would also Cause people under thirteen to be horded into games.

It would make kids under 13 be sad because they cannot play a popular game, because it is 13+.

>This would cause More moderation problems and reports to investigate

perhaps it would, perhaps it wouldn't. a way to prevent this would be to have an alert system, where if someone says certain words if is automatically brought to the attention of a mod/admin. this way it would make it much easier to find what the player in question said, therefore cutting down on the amount of effort required to investigate a report.




>It would make kids under 13 be sad because they cannot play a popular game, because it is 13+.

Such is life. ad they'll be able to play it eventually, so what does it matter.

OK, im back, and yeah people CAN lie about their age, but this will at least affect the ones who don't. maybe roblox could have some kind of verification system. i have no clue how though.

This is WAY too elitist.

This isn't just null support, it's negative.

I strongly disagree with this idea.
