Roblox is an online game platform and game creation system developed by Roblox Corporation that allows users to program games and play games created by other users. Created by David Baszucki and Erik Cassel in 2004 and released in 2006, the platform hosts user-created games of multiple genres coded in the programming language Lua. For most of Roblox's history, it was relatively small, both as a platform and a company. Roblox began to grow rapidly in the second half of the 2010s, and this growth has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Roblox is free to play, with in-game purchases available through a virtual currency called Robux. As of August 2020, Roblox had over 164 million monthly active users, including more than half of all American children under 16. Although Roblox has received generally positive reviews from critics, it has faced criticism for its moderation, microtransactions, and exploitative practices directed toward children.

TL;DR: A weird, blocky video game platform.

This game contains sunscreen eaters, people known as "slenders", and other roblox stereotypes like "ro-gangsters".

Roblox mainly contains lego/brick characters, but may also includes characters called Rthro, which is basically disgusting realistic characters that shouldn't exist on a cartoony website.

Roblox is highly hated by the roblox community for making "terrible" updates such as:
Removing the old death sound, changing the Catalog name to Avatar Shop, and more commonly, banning people for basically no reason.

Game-makers, known as "developers", often put paid items into their games to profit off of children who buy the items. Game-players, just known as players, usually either normally play the game or, like some youtubers or richer players, buy virtual items to have a better experience or ruin other's experiences.

Roblox is or was popularized by a few youtubers, mainly:
DenisDaily, Sketch, Flamingo, EthanGamerTV, MeganPlayz, LankyBox, etc.

The roblox platform includes a currency called "Robux," which must be brought with real money. Robux can offer a few different things, mainly purchasing items to customize your character or to buy in-game items like weapons in some experiences or more in-game money in other experiences.

In general, Roblox is a very weird game platform that can be enjoyed if played correctly, but can also be a terrible, toxic, broken game if played incorrectly.

Roblox is a game created in 2006 where the majority of the players are around 9-12 years old. A fact about Roblox is... you guessed it. Bad moderation. You can find actual Online Daters (ODer), mostly found on a ''Paradise Life" type of game. The usual stereotype here in this game is about Roblox banning innocent players whilst ignoring the bad ones. Roblox's filtering moderation usually tries to censor bad words but instead fails and filters innocent words. Roblox has some questionable games, such as Da Hood and MeepCity. Roblox is played by an average of 43.2 million daily users. Roblox had some incidents, such as the 2012 April Fools Incident. Now to avatars, R6 and R15 are the main types of avatars. R6 consists of 6 parts and R15 consists of 15 parts. Roblox tries to make RTHRO the main one while getting hated by people.
Person 1: Hey dude, I just found this cool game called "Roblox."
Person 2: Is it that game that has very bad moderation?

A game that is slowly getting worse minute by minute. All Roblox players nowadays are either horny slenders, emo avatars, or bacon hair noobs spamming random letters for their usernames. (e.g: Vrnhcfhcg) Roblox also has a incredibly shitty moderation, as it censors numbers and certain misspelled words. This is because the moderation team is outsourced in India and if you say ‘beef’ it results in a ban. The Roblox YouTube community is also extremely cancerous, as most of the videos are clickbait, ‘funny moments’ which are meme edits from 2016, and people with admin trolling other players. (E.g: I CRASHED A CAR AND DIED!!! (ROBLOX) actual video: some guy with an annoying voice playing a Roblox driving game) overall, I think roblox has gone downhill a lot since 2017. My rating out of 10: -1/10
Person: Hey do you wanna play roblox?
Person 2: Hell no that game is ass let’s play minecraft instead
