What Roblox needs to be doing is monitoring reported pedos, stalking them like fucking deer, gathering evidence, then bringing in the feds to nuke’em. Thats the dream anyway…
Roblox sources its entire moderation team from a country who is still struggling with the concept that raping womanhumans beings is wrong and that you shouldn't poop on the road. Until that changes literally nothing Roblox does will do anything.

Nothing, but they still behave like a pedophile and eventually will get reported and banned again. At that point Roblox will have done all they reasonably can. Though I should note that even Discord blocks VPN registrations (Roblox doesn't).
I don’t have much of a dog in the fuck Robloxxx korner. However can I say that “just ban the pedos” isn’t the dunk you think it is?
Sure ban’em, but what’s stopping them from making alt accounts, buying new copies of the game or using vpns to bypass the bans.
I mean second life banned britbong like hundreds of times.
Maybe bans will prevent low effort pedos, but how much danger where they in the first place compared to the high effort pedos that got kids to kill themselves?

because they'll be enforcing mutes on everyone who doesnt verify, you have to verify as a little kid to chat with other little kids (not sure how theyre gonna reliably verify 9 year olds or infants)
also their age verification right now isn't that bad from what i've seen (in the sense that it can verify your age properly) it uses ID/passport verification

There is an army of autistic adults numbering in the thousands who want to do nothing more than rape pedophiles harder than the Zoo Crew and Roblox isnt fucking using all of that manpower for anything.

double-posting because I was on my phone at the time, but seriously, we can see what autists like Ruben Sim do in their free time and just how effective it is; he asked groknoid to make a fucking algorithm that tracks ERP/Porn/Groomer accounts which seemingly works wonders considering that a gorillion Roblox developers actively use it to wipe out hundreds, if not thousands of groomer accounts from their games.
What puzzles me the most is; Why? Why go and attack the people in your community that are attempting to make your game safe? This could have been the biggest, easiest, slam-dunk PR win of the century if Roblox was like "yeah we're gonna hire Ruben and Schlep as temporary assistants / directors of some random project to help take down pedophiles on our service"
This current muting fiasco is nothing more than a farce to get a bunch of kids to probably upload their faces to the A.I registry to make cash off it.

Featured on Nov 22, 2025 by notorietus: Roblox CEO David Baszucki went on the NYT's podcast and instantly got defensive when asked about moderation.
Roblox's CEO, David Baszucki, has recently gone on the New York Times' Podcast called "Hard Fork", hosted by Kevin Roose and Casey Newton.
The podcast went as usual until Kevin Roose asked David about the Hindenburg Research article (that exposed Roblox for compromising child safety to report more growth to investors), which caused David to start acting defensively and extremely passive-aggressively
David asked about moderation, instantly gets defensive
Timestamps 0:00 - Kevin asks about the Hindenburg Research article, since David has denied the legitimacy of claims made in the article. Kevin asks, "You have denied that. Why? What did they have wrong?" 0:21 - David nervously looks around the room. "So Fun. Let's keep going down this" 0:38 - David asks the interviewer, "Have you researched that information?". The interviewer reverts the question back to him so that David could give an actual answer 0:53 - David completely avoids the question entirely and instead reframes the question into a philosophical debate about methodology (human moderators vs. AI). In the end, David ends up calling the Hindenburg's claim a "misnomer".
In David's response, he makes an analogy about moving from "hypermanual labor" to an "assembly line". He's making it sound like this is an inevitable, positive progression. However, if you put it in the context of what's being discussed, it's quite retarded:
David suggests that Hindenburg (and by extension, critics) are like Luddites, foolishly arguing for an inefficient, outdated manual process over a superior automated one. In reality, the criticism was never about the method, but about the resources and results. Kevin's follow-up makes this clear (which he says at 3:33): he brings up the historical lesson that platforms like Facebook over-promised on AI and found it wasn't as reliable as hoped, leading to massive moderation failures
2:03 - David says that he would be willing to lean harder on the AI moderation 2:16 - David gives Kevin a hypothetical. He asks, "What is the best way to review every single image going into Roblox at higher and higher quality? And say we figured out the best way to do that is to do it with better and better A.I. models. Would you pick that?". Kevin says yes 2:36 - David starts getting more passive-aggressive, saying that Kevin's yes to David's hypothetical means that Kevin has a full-throated endorsement of all of Roblox's policies, and embrassingly saying "high five", while cutting off Kevin's attempts to respond multiple times 2:54 - David says, "Is this a stealth interview where actually you love everything we’re doing and you’re here to stealthily support it?" 3:33 - Kevin brings up a lesson that Facebook learned 15 years ago about using AI for moderation 4:35 - David starts being passive-aggressive yet again, saying, "I’m glad you guys are supporting how we’re running Roblox on our A.I. technology", even though no one here actually endorsed it 5:03 - Another Interviewer, Casey Newton, says, "Dave, I can tell you’re getting a little bit frustrated here". To which David says, "I'm actually not frustrated" while looking like this 5:12 - "I thought we were gonna be talking about fun, funny things in the industry and all of that"
David wants to put a prediction market (literally just gambling) on Roblox
David says that Roblox is doing a good job at keeping predators out
I ain't watching all that shit (ok I might later) but it's so clear with the adult stuff and prediction markets/gambling that what they want to make is antithetical to a fucking kids game.
So why don't they just launch a game like Second Life separately where they can play around with adult stuff and have very different marketing and branding and not direct it toward kids?
Like it's so fucking easy, they have the resources and they could stop edging themselves closer to being barbequed alive by the depths of lava and brimstone in fucking Minecraft.
Seriously? Why keep putting all this shit in a fucking KIDS GAME. Literally just make a separately branded product and add in all the teledildonics furry fag shit you want to and literally NO ONE would care in the slightest. Additionally there is a gap in the market because Second Life sucks and is buggy as fuck.
The easiest answer of course is a mixed blessing of incompetence, a psychopathic CEO and c-suite executives, money, power and fiduciary duty.
TLDR: getting kids as customers is easy because they're fucking stupid and impressionable and Roblox management knows this and much like the people who operate gacha/sports gambling apps are living off of what is effectively "blood diamond" money (or blood money for simplicity sake)
I was watching someone's smart tv with dumb ads and an AI generated ad came on that was advertising to get you to join a class action lawsuit against Roblox if your kids got groomed on it. The AI shit was so goofy and uncanny valley-esque
May Roblox get burned at the stake with these lawsuits they have truly earned it
Something fucked up happens to people when their website goes from a million dollars in revenue to 100s of millions if not billions of dollars in revenue.
Never be surprised by anything Baszucki does. Before he got all of his money, he was the founder of Interactive Physics which later went on to be bought out for millions of dollars, after this he worked for the company that bought it out, left to form an angel investment firm, had a Libertarian talk radio show for a few months and then along with a co-worker founded Roblox.
Keep in mind, at its time of creation the "platform" was more useful as a 3D physics simulation and had no multiplayer. The company going on to ultimately fall into a money pit may of not been part of the original plan.
"Hey, we moderate! When a 40 year old wants to fuck a 10 year old, we moderate to make sure that's the only 10 year old he's talking to. We here at Roblox don't abide people cheating."

I can immediately tell just by looking at his face that he's a child predator. Wouldn't surprise me either if he's Jewish. Minecraft is better than Roblox anyways.
Roblox moderation that actually protects children? Never heard of her!
Why is Baszucki getting so defensive of his moderation again? Oh right, he's a pedophile kike sexually attracted to children and being the stereotypical Jew he is, focused on profits instead of actual safety; the worst possible combo.
Praying for far more states to sue Roblox, Roblox to lose a shitload of money and never recover as well as delisted from the NYSE, and for all of its sponsorships to be cancelled or not renewed. David, you've got another PR crisis on your hands thanks to your own actions! How does it feel that mainstream media has finally put a lasting spotlight on you for your crimes and inaction?
