| Roblox has been promoting more violence than ever with the new weaponry on the catalog. It is advertised as a game for children while allowing games involving gruesome gore without any censorship for young children that play. It has been shown by research that the violence in these games can create even more violence in the children playing these games. Roblox should begin to censor violent games and require more moderation as parents can't all be near their child monitoring what they see. |

Roblox and similar games featuring violence also makes it seem okay and desensitivies some players.
There also has been more bullying over the years as sales increase.
Also, a 2000 FBI report shows that there has been a link. |

Has any kid seriously played Call of Duty and then went out on a real-life kill rampage?

And here you are playing it. But seriously no. ROBLOX is super kid friendly which is good. Show me one game that has very bad violence in it. Games all similar to roblox's rating have some violence in it. Wizard 101 has players using creatures to defeat bad guys. It shows fighting. But its still kid friendly. And like Swordism said. Have you ever heard of a story about that? I never had. Based on my own facts, voilent games actually reduce stress in people which helps avoid real life violence.
General point is, ROBLOX is kid friendly and even if it did have a little fantasy violence that all reduces stress in people. |

| I don't believe in the "If he plays that game he'll shoot up up a theater" thing. Unless the person has a mental problem. |

Playing Pong on a computer really causes violence. Mario 64 obviously is the leader in massacre causing video games. |

Reasons why you are wrong:
1)You idiot, you have to be 13+ to use the guns. T_T
2)You shoot VIRTUAL looking guns at VIRTUAL players. (Robloxians) That doesn't harm anyone.
3)The guns don't even look that real TBH: They shoot plastic bullets and the gun doesn't even look THAT realistic.
4)Video games don't cause violence, for many reasons.
5)Kids can't buy guns from stores, and when they grow up, they would have probably learned that guns are bad.
6)My little brother plays Roblox, he is not violent because of that, its just his nature.
7)I could be going on forever with reasons why you are wrong. |

| Honestly I think violence in games takes away the violence in real life. You get the stress out without harming anyone. Thats just my opinion though. |

Look, if a ROBLOX place is too bloody, violent or morbid, it is moderated. And, like people said, it takes the stress out of children without hurting some-one else. Lastly, red bricks aren't very realistic.

No. I didn't see anyone standing behind my door with a gun. And most guns in ROBLOX does not exist.

| Another one of these threads that sound like they're going to sue a game for violence, and not local arms dealers. |

@sword
Hello the connecticut shooting? Ya, that guy would play COD Black Ops, and more gory games. This guy is right, but I don't believe ROBLOX is violent.

@dark The conneticut shooting wasn't because the guy played COD. I think you are thinking about the incident in Oregon. The conneticut shooting was because he felt that because his mom pulled him out of Sandy Hook when he was in 2nd grade, (The school he went to, and shot at) homeschooled him, and was about to send him off to a mental institution because he was mentally ill, he felt that the children didn't deserve the opportunity if he couldn't get it. That's my best guess, and its one of the most logical ones also.
@OP I'm half and half.
