Roblox: The children's game with a sex problem​

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-60314572

A naked man, wearing just a dog collar and a lead, is led across the floor by a woman in a bondage outfit. Two strippers dance next to a bar.
A group has gathered around a couple openly having sex, watching and occasionally commenting.
One man is wearing a Nazi uniform.
This isn't happening in the real world, it's taking place on a children's gaming platform.

Roblox is a huge sprawling world of games which is sometimes described as a kind of primitive metaverse.
It's one of the most popular children's games in the world.
The exact figures are a little hazy, but in 2020 Roblox two-thirds of all US children between the ages of nine and 12, use the game.
Roblox allows users to create and play games together. It's a way to connect, in real time, with other people in a digital world.
Players can build games, using the developer tools which the platform provides. Unlike more traditional games, the content is generated by its users. It's a wildly successful business model, but it also comes with problems.
Roblox sex games are commonly referred to on the platform as "condos". They're spaces, generated by users, where people can talk about sex - and where their avatars can have virtual sex. In these games, Roblox's rules are thrown out of the window.

Roblox accepts it has a problem: "We know there is an extremely small subset of users who deliberately try to break the rules," a spokesperson told the BBC.
Condo games are usually only live for a short time - often less than an hour - before they are discovered and taken down. Roblox says it is constantly trying to take these games offline - using both manual and automated systems.
"We conduct a safety review of every single image, video, and audio file uploaded to Roblox, using a combination of human and machine detection," it said.
But some explicit content does slip through the net. It's a "cat and mouse" issue, said Larry Magid, president of ConnectSafely- a non-profit organisation that raises awareness about child safety online.

The god of this world has faithful servants everywhere, always doing their master's bidding, and children are among their favorite targets.

I would think that sexual perversion like homosexuality being presented as normal, on mainstream media and in the schools, opens kids' minds up to this level of perversion, making them much more receptive to it. Where we see sickness and devil worship, they see something made to look fun. So the liberal cult can pretend to condemn this level of perversion, but it can not escape its own complicity in it.

online gaming platform hugely popular with children around the world has been found to also be hosting virtual Nazi sex parties, featuring bondage acts and digital strippers.

Roblox, which is rated as suitable for children as young as seven, has games featuring rooms where avatars can take off their clothes and simulate sex, while others watch.

Ummm..my grandchildren play this game and have for quite some time. I know this has never been a problem for us. I imagine the vast majority of kids are unaware of these 'condos'.

I can only pray that's the case. You'd be surprised what children are aware of at young ages.

I played it when I was in middle school, and I never ran into anything like what is described. The only thing I can think of inappropriate is maybe people cussing in chat. Then again, that was a good number of years ago...

I will ask some discreet questions. They often play in the same room that I am in and I have never heard anything questionable. We work pretty hard to protect them. Appreciate the heads up.

On a funny note, my grandkids think that *shooting the bird* is the same as a cuss word and that no one is allowed to do it until they are 18 years old.

If only more caregivers were that protective of the children in their lives.

Hard to imagine that the porn laws are not enforced but when a society rationalizes the murder of unborn babies it's likely to rationalize the acceptance of porn crimes, men going into women's bathrooms, etc., etc.
