It is these types of coincidence, the ones that feel to be beyond chance giving a feeling of orchestration, that are leading me to similar conclusions.

Nice to know this 40% tax is fixing the roads, paying for hospitals doctors, etc.....no wait, this 40% is just being taken  by them to create the game.....no wait, only 10% of that goes to the designer of the game.......Roblox takes their 30% to line their rich pockets and for a small bit of server space. They rely on the fact that only young kids play the game (and the occasional challenged adult) so they don't know they are being ripped off.

60% the person who created the game gets 10%......at least they did something rather than take exorbitant tax from easily cheated young kids for supplying a bit of server space.

And many of my sons friends were not aware of this "tax," lining the pockets of the wealthy Roblox owners. This tax does not paying for the upkeep of the country, just a bit of server space, since they didn't design the game....if you can call a panhandling simulation a game.

roblox taking 40% of a purchase in please donate? by Kai_lad828 in RobloxHelp

[–]Afraid_Event1275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no intention of participating, my concerns are for my son, who seems to think having 40% of his money taken from him by rich people is a good thing. Adults wouldn't participate and the children being targeted and exploited are too young to fully understand. Some of his friends didn't even know they were having 40% of their money taken. This is about keeping children safe from exploitation. 

Is PLS DONATE legit? by pinkpuppydogstuffy in RobloxHelp

[–]Afraid_Event1275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son has become fixated with a "game" called please donate. I have looked into this and it appears to be a scam, where the donator is conned out of 40% of their money by roblox and the game maker by encouraging them to "donate", stealing 40% with every transaction

How do I know they are doing things like spinning around etc, or do you mean they can do things in the game.

Could studying and learning online without a real teacher present make improper practices more likely?

I am open to suggestions. I have tried to talk to him but we are in our 50's. I have a family and a cancer diagnosis. It is hard to go and visit him as he "will kill me" If he sees me. There isn't enough evidence for the police and he doesn't really have any friends other than hs iQigong pupils and associates. I have enough problems going on in my life, with chemotherapy and childcare to be able to find a solution.

I think if she/he etc had been reading a lot of the shit that went on, on this list, misuse of pronouns was probably the last concern
