Hi y'all, I'm annoyed.
I have all communication turned off for my kid, and I just learned that there's "texting" in the game and people can still message her with their in-game phones.
I'm confused about what the communication setting even does at this point. Am I missing something here?
I’m getting tired of reading about how bad Roblox is for minors, and what little they are doing about it. I’m at the point where I’m not sure parental controls and constant monitoring will ever be enough.
Can anyone recommend a good alternative for my 11y and 9y kids?
Latest article that has me fired up: https://hindenburgresearch.com/roblox/
Thanks!
I have reason to believe an adult contacted my minor child through the chat on Roblox using their child’s account and sent some weird messages. I have screen shots of the recent messages but they deleted many prior messages in the chat. I am not sure how or if I can unarchive these messages on our end as we did not do the deleting. Any advice would be much appreciated and yes, I have made a police report now we are trying to recover the entirety of their interactions in the chat.
Hello there! I am fairly new to this whole Roblox thing. My son recently received a 1 day ban on Roblox for sexual content. He just turned 7. Looks like he asked someone "Can we [INSERT PEACH & EGGPLANT]." He said he didn't know what it meant but that someone else had put it in the chat and he was repeating it. Idk what I believe but I am alarmed, no doubt. Is there any way to retrieve the chat history so I can read and review for myself? Apparently my husband set up the account, I don't think it was set up as a child account.
I created my parental pin almost 4 years ago and somehow don’t remember it. My son accidentally blocked his brother. I have tried to email Roblox to reset the pin. My son is so upset because he wants to play with his brother but I can’t reset it without my pin. Anyone else had this happen?
This game…honestly either not enough protection for young kids or too much protection making the game useless as you can’t chat.
Simple things to add to parental/game controls: -Parents approve friend requests (outgoing and incoming) -In-experience chats stored/parent accessible -Actual inappropriate text controls (anyone can walk up to my kid in Roblox and say private parts, etc?!) -Friends only in-experience chat -History of reported users
Am I missing anything?! Specifically pissed I can’t find a days long in-experience chat between my child and another user that was extremely inappropriate. Zero way to access anything regarding this. Only going off of honest/open conversation with my child.
Hi there,
On September 17th my daughter was tricked by user "Ice [@Mightymouse6367u]" into handing over
a weapon called Seer, with the promise that she'd get 2 back so she could share it with her friend.
Obviously it was a scam and then the user said she'd only get the item back if she handed over her entire inventory, which thankfully she didn't do, but the user logged out shortly after and now she's missing an item she says took her a very long time to get.
She now understands not to believe people who say things like that, but is there anything I can do to help her? She sent in a few reports in MM2, but there's been no response and it's been over a week. She has a recording but I imagine the people at Roblox would already be able to view chat and trade logs, so I don't imagine the recording will do much.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Does anyone have experience with Roblox? I tried asking on the Roblox Reddit but it seems they are done with general help issues, almost like they don’t want to help. I wish I know how sketchy this game was before my kids got into it. Post: Both of my kids play Roblox as do I with them sometimes, and I have the security tab checked with a PIN set and they are child accounts. My 5 year old got about 3k robux for his birthday and spent a few in the marketplace, he played a game that charged for an "experience" but the payed experience was literally nothing and to confirm the purchase he walked into a box because it was the only path you could walk to and a screen popped up for 5 seconds confirming the purchase, no pin was asked for or a confirmation click just a timer and it drained all of his money. I sent a message to customer support for a refund and l've heard they usually refund stuff like that but is there any way to block scam games like that? I see them all the time and would think they are not appropriate for a kids account as they are unable to confirm purchases. Any help would be welcomed thank you.
My daughter really loves Roblox and we recently agreed to give her some of her allowance as Robux. I'm looking for ways to be able to give her small amounts of Robux at a time. For example 80-100 each time.
What are ways of doing this?
- Giftcards don't allow me to go below 800 at a time
- I could build an experience linked to her account where I can make payments, but 30% of that goes to Roblox, so that would be a bad deal for either of us.
i recently got scammed on mm2 by a guy called OGshadowsniper it was a makeshift and i dont know what to do. can u guys see what i can do
selling roblox account for 160 lowest is 130 account value: $300 (another price can be negotiated)
i can join game or whatever you like to prove ownership.
My daughter came to me and said that she found an app called kinjo where you can play games inside of Roblox and earn points that you can then exchange for Robux.
I can't find much information on Kinjo outside of a Facebook page and a decently put together web page. Are anyone's kids using this?
If I can't link my kids accounts to my parent account, why bother making one? I can just go into their accounts and restrict everything from there.
Can you limit Roblox to certain friends?
Roblox is so confusing to me but my 8 year old loves it. She’s the only one in her friend circle that can’t chat on the app or message. We’ve turned this off to protect her from creepy people and a couple girls that have tried to cyber bully her.
Can you limit friends? Right now she can friend anyone she wants.

Feel stupid asking but I’m sure we have some amazing Roblox wizards in here. Thanks!

My daughter had access to this game and she's only 4 years old with other children at the daycare without my permission, she is a sweet girl and overnight she became extremely violent. I started to investigate and found that the only thing that had changed was her playing this game game, I'm a 27 year old young mother, I've always loved games and even playing with her and never been boring with these things but honestly this game is for 16 year old's no less. Today in Brazil, my home country, a boy sh*ot his parents to de*th because they forbade him to play this game, it is the responsibility of parents to coordinate the time their children spend on the internet and what they are doing, but society also does not help parents In this difficult task, it takes a whole village to raise a child, so the child will never be raised only by the parents, we need to protect the children.
Is there a way to enable chatting with friends while still having account restrictions on? I want to allow our kid to chat with their friends, but want to still limit them to the curated age appropriate content.
Is there anyway to filter to just see curated age appropriate games? I did the parental controls and restricted account, but we can still see (but not play) a bunch of games. Is there not a way to just get curated games?
i have poisonous beast mode and meta valk. how much are they worth together?
