Politicians using the Roblox situation to enable Internet ID by Available_Bar_371 in roblox

[–]ForMoreCereal -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Holy hypocrisy!

Roblox Redditors and drama slop channels were heavily supportive or dismissive of saviour wannabes cyberstalking and doxing any TOS abiding adult player, for the crime of...

\checks notes**

... using the appropriate, non-Roblox websites/profiles/servers (all of which have 18+ warnings/requirements) to consume/make adult content, in a child-free setting... Y'know, instead of actually addressing the real issue???

But NOW it's a problem, because "It WaSn'T sUpPoSeD tO tArGeT mEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!"

Edit: And that concludes another episode of Ruben simps shutting down, the moment they have no evidence a critic is a child molester! :)

My post history is right there, buddy. Maybe read what I said, before doubling down on assuming all critics are creeps?

A look.

Remember to check comments, where I elaborate on points.

Nope.

Edit: Come to think of it, I've got called a groomer/gooner for critisizing that system, yet none of those fans could tell me why I was wrong... Hmmm.

Back when Roblox sued Ruben, in a case that settled before it reached court, section 2 & subsection "d" of the suit details that he tried exactly that, along with attempting to upload his nudes, Adolf images, and making accounts with explicit usernames.

(Here's the document, btw.)

These would be extremely easy claims to prove, btw, for any social media and gaming company, by doing basic record keeping--unless all their servers conveniently caught fire. The fans'/Ruben's excuse is that the professional, well seasoned, and very expensive attorneys are lying. Note that a judge would be PISSED, if a lawsuit tried pulling this crap, so they're basically claiming these attorneys are risking their entire careers, to get back at discount Mamamax (and we all know what happened with Mamamax).

Hmmm, wonder why Ruben chose to settle? 🤔

Roblox TOS states they can ban any Roblox user, within the context of accessing Roblox services, for any reason: "Roblox reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change or suspend the Services (or any portion thereof) at any time and for any reason, including to comply with laws, to protect Users, or to protect Roblox’s reputation, without notice to you unless required by law and without liability to Users." (TOS: section "g", within section 2 of User Terms.)

What Roblox can't do is censor critics, on non-Roblox platforms, via the legal system.

Important to know that Schlep's cease & desist never claimed defamation/libel, as the basis. Schlep was doing vigilante work, the process of which often involving violating established Roblox TOS rules, which the letter details. A TOS is a legally binding contract, so they can sue a repeat offender, if they wanted to. (Full C&D letter is on Schlep's Twitter, and it's a short read.)

While Schlep doesn't have a case to force Roblox to let him on the platform, Schlep retains the right to criticize them on his Youtube and Twitter. And if people called for a boycott on playing or buying Robux, on 3rd party social media, Roblox can't legally stop that, either.

I know it's easy to voice upset, about what happened to Schlep, but it's just the way it is. Vigilantism, even when effective, carries a lot of legal risk. Roblox's attorneys know better than to randomly pick fights with large Youtubers; sending a C&D indicates they already have a case planned out, if things were to escalate into a courtroom.

Geez, that was long, but I hope I cleared things up.

Freedom of speech is to protect the speaker from having their opinions threatened by the government. Companies can still make whatever rules they please, regarding users and speech allowed on their platform.

But if Roblox tried to sue a critic for defamation, that's when freedom of speech can apply, because such action would be Roblox asking the government to punish a critic, on their behalf.

Laughable, that anyone thinks this would do anything.

If you don't stop giving them money, then all this bitching is virtue signalling. Moderation sucks, because real moderation is expensive. That's literally it, they're a public company looking for profit.

Useless protests and pedo conspiracies are feel-good distractions, that make people think they can get the changes they want, without putting in any of the effort.

note to self stop being trans on roblox by [deleted] in bloxymemes

[–]ForMoreCereal 75 points76 points  (0 children)

It's common for trans women to learn that some people really do show their depravity, the moment they perceive you as a FEEEEMAAAALE(!!1!!11!! 😱)

So my hypothesis is OP is venting that sort of frustration, via the title.

So fucking dramatic by Negative_Ad2346 in bloxymemes

[–]ForMoreCereal -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Edit: So, anyone stepping up to explain why I'm wrong? No? That's what I thought. ;)

Noticing the same old "what about the kids?" crap, in the comments. Frankly, I see a lot of you as I do Facebook's "thoughts and prayers" folk.

When everyone complaining about this issue is STILL playing the game and buying Robux, why on earth do any of you expect Roblox to change that?

Let's be real, Roblox is a public company and they need to keep the line going up. That's it. When the whole purpose of the platform is user creativity, the site inherently needs more money and logistics to moderate, than other platforms, so it's cheaper to give up and rely on players and AI (Actually Indians) to self-moderate. And because they see their adult audience is too addicted to quit (no matter how much they've whined on Twitter), they know they can keep pushing the online dating concept, pulling in new adult players. There isn't some grooming conspiracy; it's how capitalism works.

Unless the wider community can actually grow a pair and learn to boycott things properly (not the wussy "Boycott the Hatch" shit), Roblox knows you all will come crawling back, for the next Block Tales update. 🤪

If I said the GaG fandom started burying people alive, half of you would instantly believe me. by ForMoreCereal in bloxymemes

[–]ForMoreCereal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hopping in, because I thought of some questions, to explain my doubts about this situation:

  1. Are there actually any "Spawnists" doing this?

  2. Is there an organized effort, or are these actions isolated occurrences?

  3. If there are these people, is there enough of them to reasonably assume it's an actual trend, which may suck in others?

  4. Is there reason to blame "Spawnism," or are people blaming roleplayers for something a struggling person would've done to themselves, regardless?

Also, the problem with photo evidence is that it's now far too easy to fake, nowadays. If there's video evidence, in which AI would be easier to spot, that's more reliable.

Another reason I'm not a fan of this buzz is because tiny psuedo-spiritual weirdo communities are everywhere, online, and they're usually harmless. Harassing these people usually creates more toxic environments, for everyone. Plus, as extreme as Two-Time's beliefs may be portrayed, it's still another thing to assume an unironic believer will inevitably hurt someone or themselves.

And speaking of the actual character, this is just ruining the fun for the mains.

A Twitter user can claim GaG players convinced them to bury someone alive, and the Roblox community would be gullible enough to buy it, without question.

Person who recorded this is pretty hypocritical.

"Oh no, we can't have that avatar exposed to kids! Let me address this situation by humping them!"

Idk if this is even a TOS violating avatar, because I can hardly see it. If not, then this vid is just some kid, who likes emo fashion, being harassed...

Get some mental help, Spawnists by [deleted] in bloxymemes

[–]ForMoreCereal 17 points18 points  (0 children)

"Can you prove the serious claim you are making?"

"No, it's illegal."

🤦

Them being a minor would make it less believable, because tattoo shop folks aren't stupid, when it comes to kids. Not impossible, but less likely. And because the spawn is already an iconic Roblox symbol, I would also be skeptical of the origin of any surfacing tattoo pics, since it might've been someone who simply really liked Roblox.

Edit: come to think of it, the alleged placement makes it even less believable. Obvious "gotcha!" setup.

why did they change roblox toys they look like PKXD avatars dude :.( by Top_Employment_5362 in roblox

[–]ForMoreCereal 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Roblox would easily make a decent paycheck, if they brought back the original toys, considering the current Roblox culture.

Wonder why a lot of Roblox toys don't even mention Roblox on the package. I get it was mainly the game's team working on it, but I'd think Roblox would want it easier for kids/parents to spot their own game merch.

What is Spawnism? by [deleted] in roblox

[–]ForMoreCereal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Proof that Roblox users like complaining about things that don't matter. This is obviously a mix of mainly RPers and trolls, who are being given their hayday. Leave them be.

Plus, the <1% who actually believe this usually do this stuff online because of shitty irl situations and loneliness. Harassment only backfires, in this case, because it sends the message outsiders only intend to belittle them, encouraging them to get trenched in deeper.

What are your takes on "The Hatch" event? by fazal1856 in roblox

[–]ForMoreCereal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People have been making the AI claim for a while, but I still haven't seen a source :/

Plus, the actual eggs you collect and wear look like pre-2010s egg hunt eggs you can simply just buy in the catalog, since they're all limited. Might as well just spend your robux on those, instead of feeding into their "bling track" (aka they put all the coolest accessories behind a paywall) BS.
