A kid joins ROBLOX. He sees an ad that says "Homeowners can save a million dollars by clicking here" or such.
Yes, Google ads funds ROBLOX. This just makes me laugh at Roblox.

If only we could be heard by mods.
But we can't, can we?

Honestly I wish mods would listen to reports on non-kid ads.
but, like my signature suggests, mods won't listen.
If only we had uservoice back.

I support, my dad could watch 5 hours of "inappropriate" videos and then I play on ROBLOX.

Disgusting.

Why not use Google Ads? They are all based on your search; you can't blame them for your views.

@headjoe2

Tough luck then. I've learned to take these ads, and none of them were inappropriate.

If they are as offensive as they seem, get AdBlock. Regardless, ROBLOX shouldn't remove their subscription with Google because the ads they are processing.

Why do you need it on ROBLOX Studio?

Its a separate browser. Of course you can't get Adblock on there.

As far as I know, there isnt a way you can filter the ads in Google Ads.

You won't get happy customers if you reject others like that.

I'm so sorry, Mimehammer.

Google AdSense is based on search history, though not necessarily your's.

And yes, you can report them.

but we can't report ads if we don't know who is selling it/what it's selling. To know, you have to click it. To click it, you can easily get a virus.
Like it says in my signature.

There's a report button near the ad. Click on it if you see something offensive.

You even said it yourself, "Google ads fund ROBLOX."



With out them, ROBLOX can lose money.


Either you buy BC or use something so simple called "Ad Blocker."

This is good enough, kid websites wont advertise here, roblox won't give us to other websites. That's why there's no kid ads, besides Toys R us which most of us have overgrown.
