I just had to discuss cyberbullying and online dating on ROBLOX SOMEWHERE. Okay, so, the thing is, there's always a problem, right? Two major problems are cyberbullying, and NOT ONLINE DATING ITSELF, but what gets thrown at online daters, which is sort of like cyberbullying.
Here's what I have to say about cyberbullying: I hate it. Flat out, simply, hate it. It's been going on since nearly the beginning of the internet itself. There is a difference between verbal bullying in real life, but on the internet, whatever you say GOES on the internet. You may have taken what you've posted down, but there's a good chance somebody saw it. On ROBLOX, if you're in a game or just posting on your feed, there's basically a huge pool of trash. What goes in the pool is all of the negative words and opinions about something who didn't do something wrong. They may have done it, but maybe it was an accident/they didn't know it was wrong. Have you heard of Amanda Todd? She made two simple mistakes and those mistakes lead up to here committing suicide. You can watch a video about it on YouTube, posted by herself. This is how serious cyberbullying is.
I also have to say something about online dating and what happens afterward. There are some very bad people on the internet, such as predators. They hunt down children and do things to them, which is something that isn't safe about the internet. Then, there's people who are just dating. They actually like someone, even though they've never met them in real life, and they might never meet them, as a matter of fact. I see people talking about not knowing what somebody really LOOKS like. Are you serious? Who cares what they LOOK like? It's who they are, and acts of kindness they make. Online Daters really aren't doing any harm at all. There are children on this site, yes, but as long as we stay clean on our actions, we'll probably be just fine. There are little children who are around people who are dating in REAL life. So, who cares? I don't like all of these negative opinions on people who just can't get somebody for themselves in real life, or somebody who actually really likes someone but may not be able to meet them.
There are many issues in our everyday ROBLOX lives, and I just felt the need to discuss a few. All types of feedback (within reason) are welcome. |

| Cyberbullying can be easily avoided, and as for online dating it is best to let the moderators do their jobs. |

Doomlord, judging by the "moderators can do their jobs" part of your post, you didn't read at all what I said.
Also, whoever said the tl;dr, I'd suggest not posting on my thread anymore. |

| 100% agree & support for you, buddy. Infact, from what I've noticed, most of the bullying comes from the older people of the community. That will drive the confidence of little ones straight down as the "bigger" one announces how they're over 15 and so on. |

| You don't really have to overreact over everything. The TL;DR person only posted that to infuriate you. As for the 'moderators can do their jobs', I naturally assumed that it is online dating on ROBLOX. It is highly unlikely that a fully grown adult would try to date on a game that is meant for kids starting at the age of 4. |

| Doomlord, I was talking about the child predators, and it's aimed towards children 7-18, okay? Which means...PREDATOR ALERT. |

| It will always be there, even if you don't want it to. I respect new people in the game, and in my life. You can't get rid of cyberbullying though. |

| Bro you really need to chill out over everything. All you say is true, but your kind of overreacting. I put tl;dr so you can put in shorter phrases next time so I can understand what you are saying. |
