I hate to have to bring up this topic. But i've been very dissapointed for what i've been seeing around ROBLOX lately. More than 52% of kids get cyber bullied and the users on ROBLOX, I've noticed have been bullying new users and kids thst they think are below their level. Stop condecending the poor fellows. You can stop or speak up for the person. Just because you're rich or have better grammar doesn't give you the right to bully them.
ROBLOX, as you know today in society it makesmit very easy for kids to cyber bully. Yes, you have moderators but those are computerized. I'm not saying take away the ROBLOXians' freedoms, but try to make a more strict policy on bullying. You could save a kids life. Also i'm pretty sure you wouldn't want angry parents suing you just because you didn't do anything about it. Or atleast not everything you have the power to do. |

1: The moderators are not computerized. 2: What is your suggestion? 3: you mean less than 52%, and you also forget the fact that the kids insult back as well. 4: We already have a reporting system, USE IT. 5: Angry parents suing you? 1: Roblox has no controll of what users do online. 2: You obviously need to read some of the laws. 3: And this is a kind of threat if you ask me. 6: I think i've covered everything here. |

Correction. Yes, the mods are computerized, people cannot simply read all those reports in one day. This is not a threat. Many schools are sued because they haven't done anything to prevent bullying that is why a bill was passed. I am trying to help, kids take their own lives because of harrassment over the internet. |

Roblox has tryed to prevent it. (Reporting buttons) and the mods arent computerized. Adn your right they dont read it all in 1 day. (Also there a TONS of mods on roblox unknown) And if you REALLY wanna stop Cyber bulling then we would have to shutdown the internet. |

| It's never going to be stopped. To many people condescend on each other. It's human nature. Just things to help prevent it. |

| Yes there are other things to report, but if someone reports bullying that should be priority mail. I've already had a friend take their own life. That's why. |

@Rare,
Heth is suggesting that ROBLOX responds more strictly to bullying. I've reported people for the same cause, and, as far as my knowledge goes, they didn't receive any sort of punishment. |

I'm sorry to hear that, Heth. :c It's dissapointing that people won't take things like this seriously. They don't believe something over the internet can affect a person's state of mind or emotions.
I watched a movie a few months ago called the Happening, and I've been paranoid about it ever since. Fortunately, most of the people I've went to for help have taken me seriously. .-. |

| Its one thing to cyberbully when you know the person on the other end. When it is COMPLETELY anonymous, then you are pathetic to not take some trolling. |

As I said, it's disappointing to see people like Iorn who won't take this seriously.
Iorn, it isn't pathetic or stupid of them. They may be emotionally unstable, and you should respect that. The meaning of words don't change if you read them or hear them. They are still sharp as knives. |

Lemme point a few things out-
I was told by an actual moderator- Users greatly overestimate the amount of reports roblox gets daily.
They have a team that reads all of the reports, and punishes them accordingly.
Cyberbullying, while it is a FEDERAL OFFENSE, and just plain wrong, cannot fuel a lawsuit against ROBLOX. |

| If the government wants it illegal, maybe they should have more than two people sitting at a desk monitoring the entire internet. |
