You know Roblox’s community is degenerate when Tom has to make a two parter dedicated to their community.
Talk about a double deal.
Roblox hasnt been the same since 2016
He can definitely make a part 2 for minecraft youtubers aswell, he probably will.

I swear its like a good chunk of creators just start harassing children when they get popular or famous. And it's like every other week someone gets outed for grooming kids.

The fact the victims were children was awful enough but hearing their voices made it even worse, really drove in how young they actually are
10:12 is a perfect example
Any sexual predators will always victim-blame the victims; she was the one being sexual first. "Shaming" is the oldest trick in any criminal's book.
this one guy that groomed me into sending images tried to excuse his actions by saying i was a “h0rny child” and that somehow puts ME in the wrong or smt??💀💀💀 crazy
My ex’s excuse to SA me was “I was drunk sorry” drunk actions are sober thoughts
@@doagii2649 Ahh projection at its "finest". They know it's wrong and blame the victim to absolve them of their wrongdoing. If they think they did nothing wrong, then they wouldn't need to blame the victim.
@@thedarkestkinghtstar he was crazy bro, just texted me at 6 am randomly asking for my snap and got mad at me for not having it THEN got mad at me for deleting the old noods i sent at 13/14 and IM in the wrong, yes! mhm! YES! TOTALLY!!!💀💀💀 p3d0s are crazy
The fact that Roblox protected these predators is insane, thankfully police took action against these people.

@@LVCE. he is speaking facts tho.
wonder what you do.
@@xForbidenfruitxx he is right obviously but the guy is everywhere on the internet. I hate these “commenter” channels.
It really says a lot when Roblox takes a game down, not because the developer of said game was outed as a pedophile, but because a company bigger than them ordered them to.
Roblox would rather take money and profits as a top priority, rather than the safety of its child fanbase.
thats why i dont play games outside of anime games cuz those guys are human and have morals but most of the time they are shit devs but atleast they arent pedos
Tbh most companys do this they just pay every news outlet to be portraited to be the hero. Roblox couldnt care less tho cause there income is minors that don't understand anything.
I don’t think sega is bigger than roblox but besides that yeah
@@Glacialgaming what? how even?
This makes me want to be a police officer on a internet task force more and more or be an online investigator
So nasty how many creeps push the idea that their victims are the ones to initiate inappropriate behavior, and blame them for being "seductive" toward them. It's so disgusting and harmful, and it makes it much more difficult for victims to speak out.
Seriously though. Like how in the ever loving fuck is a child seductive? You know what most people see when they look at a child? A child. Some think they're adorable, some think they're gross, and so just don't give a damn. No one with an ounce of human decency looks at a child or how said child acts and thinks there's anything xuelly appealing about them. There's a big difference between "Oh she's going to grow into a beautiful young lady" or "Oh he's going to grow in to such a handsome young man" and saying that a child is somehow attractive or seductive.
@@chaoticdusk1316I am 15 and that's wrong. I find other girls of my age attractive.
Like even if a child iniates any sexual activity with you (which they would genuinely never), they're a fucking child! Unless you found them attractive too then you wouldn't reciprocate! Any sane human being would get the fuck out of the situation!
@@GloryToMyselfbecause you are a CHILD too
@@GloryToMyselfthat's different you're 15 so it doesn't apply here
Roblox Corporation is possibly one of the worst corporations ever. When grooming allegations come out, they turn a blind eye, but if someone says a bad word, BANNED. And if anyone speaks out about them they get punished.
that doesn't make them the worst corporation ever, they are just like pretty much every gaming company out there. Ofc its still tragic and something that should not be happening, but still it doesn't make them the worst corporation ever, just an extremely bad one

I feel so bad for the kids who testified in defence of a groomer without even realizing that they’re basically revealing that he has even more victims. he has convinced them that real mature kids simply don’t get affected by harassment and manipulation or that if they were inappropriate first it’s their fault, never mind that the adult in the situation is the one who should know better. the “excuse” that the dev isn’t at fault because _several other adults_ had been acting inappropriate with one of the victims is also bone chilling.
I do too, but not all adults who play Roblox are bad, or pedos.
@@JaysasterGaming Ofc not just like with any other game and social media. But personally I believe parents should be educated and look into their childs online activity. My parents did that with me and it was like the late 2000s early 2010s. There are great programma and apps you can install nowadays that are even easy for less techsavy parents. Ofc it's not the parents fault but there ahouls be education on this topic specifically for them to help them protect their kids.
it was so.. ick.. hearing the other older game devs and workers back up the dude JUST because they ALSO openly admitted to doing the same thing. truly takes one to know one.
If you like Turkey Tom give my channel a chance
i am more surprised that a predator simped a child
like...how down bad is this bloody planet?

They were deadass scripted. You can hear that they're reading. It sounds like when you pick a kid to read in class but they're not interested in the book.
I'm currently 52 and have been gaming since Pong. I had a daughter later in life and this is the only game that I heavily monitored. Their are some serious scary predators in this community that aren't even trying to hide their intent. You'll have toxic people in any game lobby but this is like a shopping mall for Pedz. Parents need to wake up and watch their kids because the game companies only see income.
Damn your a literal OG
It never fails to amaze me just how _pathetic_ some human beings can be. I'm in my mid-30's, & there was very little outside of 'chat rooms' or 'forums' to interact with others when I was a teen. My parents are tech illiterate but even still, my Mom always says how glad she is that she doesn't have minor-kids nowadays.
My heart truly goes out to those who do, that have to try _so hard_ to keep their kids safe from creeps (without preventing them from being able to enjoy the things (like games) available to them online now). I know it's easier said than done, but I think something we neglect to teach kids about well enough is 'gaslighting' & 'manipulation tactics'.
Roblox is an awful game filled with cringe, degeneracy, boring and unoriginal "games", creepy ugc anime faces, preds, preds who make inappropriate avatars that are so bad they look like they came from an explicit anime, and toxicity so bad it rivals chernobyl; And to top it off, Roblox corporation doesnt care despite being exposed several times for even more things that i didnt say
i suggest that you migrate and play actual good games like pizza tower, battlebit remastered, hollow knight. heck, even FORTNITE if you dont buy any microtransactions, battlepasses and play it every other week like i do
Some of them don't even try, they just give em an iPad and send them on their way. I feel bad for them, they're being failed by many.
It’s honestly easier to keep it away from kids.
All you say is “no” and don’t give or buy them devices.
That’s it.
NOW it only really depends if the parents are lazy or not.
@@LavaCreeperPeople Telling people to migrate from one game to another isn’t going to solve the problem that has festered for years.
@@LavaCreeperPeople you dont really find disturbing roblox games and clothing unless your trying to look for it. u wont really find those kinds of things just roaming the game as a regular player.
The "It was just jokes" excuse is literally Chris Hansen predator levels of desperation and stupidity
Jadon (Castillo) blaming that 12 year old girl actually raised my blood pressure. All of his "buddies" who came out in his defense despite the blatant evidence of him having disgusting conversations with several minors are all complicit. Glad the FBI got to him, even if it was too late...
Roblox is an awful game filled with cringe, degeneracy, boring and unoriginal "games", exploiting "game developers", creepy ugc anime faces, preds, preds who make inappropriate avatars that are so bad they look like they came from an explicit anime, and toxicity so bad it rivals chernobyl, and far far more. all on a kids game where the average user is 12; And to top it off, Roblox corporation doesnt care despite being exposed several times for even more things that i didnt say. they even announced that they would be lessening the restrictions on ONLINE DATING, swearing, alchohol, gambling, and more. On a childrens game. Bruh

@@LavaCreeperPeople The games I really play are Doors, Item Asylum, Slap Battles and Obby Creator.
I also tried other games but I really felt uncomfortable.
So yeah I might disagree with your statement, however it doesn't mean that it is entirely false, and is in fact very true.
It's just that it doesn't happen to me, uninstall Discord and Twitter, and you'll be fine.
@@LavaCreeperPeople Plus, Roblox didn't really meant that, they meant that they make less restriction for Gambling THEMES, but not actual gambling, same for alcohol and romantic THEMES.
And swearing is for people who have at least a verified 13+ account or smth.
I only burned down several orphanages and killed several families and bombed several children hospitals and stopped the development of the cancer vaccine and shot down several schools and destroyed multiple government facilities but it was all a joke so it’s alright
As a schizophrenic myself, I deeply hope the victimized schizophrenic girl in the video has a damn fantastic support network. Being schizophrenic is life ruining as it is, being exploited on top of that can really create deep wounds. The voices must have a field day with all the new material.
>as a

I genuinely have no idea how schizophrenia works, are the voices constantly negative? Just only bad vibes forever? That sounds horrible and my heart goes out to you.
@@lucas23453It would usually depend on the person, but from people I’ve know who have it do say that they do hear a lot of negative stuff and or positive. Like a person you’re talking to could just be nice to you and you become friends till you realize that you were pretty much seeing things. It just depends, but yeah my heart goes out to anyone who is experiencing Schizophrenia and or has symptoms of it of some sort 🫶
Waaaah feel sorry for me waaaaaaaahhhwahhhh
Can't believe SEGA themselves had to step in and do the Roblox moderation's job FOR them.
Ugh. I used to manipulate with cutting and suicide back in middle and high school. I wasn't socially intelligent and thought that was a good idea to put my partners through that. I thought it would make them want to be with me more on just the thought I actually would. Now, years later, I cringe every time I listen to something like this because I know what I did back then was awful and borderline inhumane to them. I decided I didn't want to put anybody through my manipulation again. So here I am, 25 years old and still working on myself. I don't manipulate anymore, but I still don't feel good enough yet to attempt to pursue another relationship. I need to be 10,000% sure I can be good enough for my partner, so they never have to worry about me or if I'm not being the best I can be for them. It's... lonely right now, but I know when I am at my peak, it will all be worth it.
Don't worry man, you can do it
my friend dealt with the bullshit of his gf at the time threatening to self harm every time wanted to get her way; it's been over 15 years later and he still has issues doing things he thinks will upset people because he thinks he'll be responsible for them hurting themselves. im glad youre dealing with that and also knowing to stay away from people until you feel ready to be healthy in a relationship
the fact that it embarrasses you just proves you’ve become a better person

The fact that Roblox as a company has not been investigated by the FBI or any law enforcement is just insane. Not only are they complicit in these degenerate and inappropriate acts by defending them or not taking any action, but some of the stuff in game could technically be considered as distributing CP or distributing to minors, which is illegal in so many places.
Its simple roblox is a capitalist company, and the police and fbi are supporters of capitalism, so they wont investigate
BRO I CANNOT BELIEVE I FOUND YOU HERE THIS WAS PURE ACTUAL LUCK OMG DO YOU REMEMBER ME FROM UNIVERSAL ROLEPLAY
i mean, the only problem roblox has in these situations is that they don't do anything about it, the main problem are the devs who do this tho. also, 2 words: Jadon shedletsky. if i remember correctly his ture name: Arnold Castillo or smth? anyways, if you know. you know.
correction: the main problem, not the only one that roblox has in these situations
also true name not ture name
Man, hearing those little girls on audio talking about that kind of stuff hurts my heart. No kid should ever have to deal with these people.
as soon as i heard sarahs voice, i got chills. Hearing the voices of the children involved really makes you understand how young these kids are. Its unfortunate that such an innocently faced game for a young audience could have the most depraved people.
It’s nauseating and it impacts these innocent little kids for life. Arnold Castillo was sentenced to 15 years in a federal prison but it should have been even more.

Just goes to show that giving our kids unsupervised access to the internet is never a good idea. The parents of these kids should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this sort of thing to happen.
Behind every groomed child is a neglectful failure of a parent.
I tend to agree. Caddicarus puts it best, its not youtube that needs to change to protecc dem kids, its the parents who need to learn to take away the tablet until they are ready.
But parenting is hard, cocomelon provides mindless stimuli, so the parent can let the tablet raise the kid while they get to continue doing whatever they want.
It really is not normal for someone in their mid 20's to be only hanging out with 12 to 15 year olds. That is a huge red flag
if my kids ever play roblox im turning off their messages and block social media expect yt on their phones
That's why I called the cops on the local middle school teacher. That sick fuck.
By that logic, might as well pull fortnite, PUBG & whole kind of social media interaction
Internet is a public park without actual face interation, if you don't want your kids to interact with older people, you don't let them out of your house & if you do, you supervise them
Good luck with that, human want freedom, kids have to learn what consequence & danger alarm sooner or later
If my kids go on roblox I'll force them to watch euphoria (anime one)
Yea even 19 year olds are unbearable.
"Roblox banned Jadon but didn't stop paying him and left his game up."
Excuse me?
Welcome to roblox 😃
Welcome to ROBLOX! A place that was made by a few passionate people (With 1 tragically passing away) that is now just another corporate game who prioritizes profits over the safety of it's users (who's majority is children btw)
i mean, theres no right of free public speech in roblox. if you try to complain or speak up about these things they will shut you up by banning you and terminating your accunt. holy shit i just realised how much roblox resembles a virtual Soviet union. they have almost the same amount of secrecy too
The most disturbing things about situations like this is the dates and how recent they are. It absolutely disgusts me how a multimillion dollar business like Roblox can 1) hide the info of predators 2) not have stricter rules and regulations about age requirements 3) still be used in general
Being a parent that's aware of how insane the internet can get is tiring.
My mom was blissfully ignorant so I got away with alot when I was kid on the interne but no matter how hard I tried to keep my kid away from certain stuff other kids just ended up showing them at school.
the fact that most of these people are fully aware of the consequences and exactly what they’re doing is disturbing and disgusting
I agree, humanity is truly unpredictable.
as even the people trying to defend them say "they know the line" this is how these creeps tiptoe around the law. disgusting.
Just wanna point out a few things, you can't control the age rating on your game, it only applies to games with blood and violence. Also, images are set with "Image ID" which are on the creator developer marketplace, where you can upload a file, wait for it to be approved, and then you can use it. same thing with clothing.
That explains why the Castillo Protocol was boring and rated M for blood and gore.
ESRB can’t actually rate online games. Only the game’s assets like models and textures. Like Forza Horizon 4 for an example. It is Rated E for Everyone. But the online aspect is not, regardless of Turn 10 (Dev) or Microsoft says. But they can make rules (aka TOS/EULA).
Yes, the ESRB didn’t do a good job of rating and provide what type of content is in the game as well get the parents to see where the rating is then make their own judgement in the 90’s.
@@codygames5415 That is one of the very few games that has very poor description of the said game.
I figured I’d watch this since I’m getting really into the Dev community, wanted to make sure what to avoid, thank you!
In case anyone cares, DrRofatnik has been sentenced to 15 years in prison
As a soon to be mom, the exchange between Jadon and Sarah made my jaw drop and my stomach turn. Jesus, help our babies! This is absolutely horrific. I can't imagine justifying this abusive language towards young people...
Be sure to check their online accounts when they're older
Roblox is the same company that lets litteral furries and gay pornstars who openly post pornography on their work twitter, MODERATE kids content on.
I expect nothing less
Make sure they know basic internet safety

Main reason why someone would become a roblox developer. Sole purpose is to farm money off of children.
The community has 3 sections: "Groomers" and, "Groomers who know how to code" and also, "The victims"
And “the people who actually are nice and don’t groom” (very rarely)

We all became friends with him and a few days later, he teleported us to the VIP room and told us of the situation. He wanted us to spread rumors to others so they can as well, like a wildfire.
He showed us evidence contained within a Google document, which was full of screenshots of Discord DM’s.

i was one of the ppl who helped gather evidence, ex mod also. so glad people know abt this wild shit now. when i first seen screenshots when it happened i didn't say anything in fear of being banned and losing my mod powers. if that happened i wouldn't have been able to share these with others. i hope we can track down his real identity so we can report him to police

I'm about 20 years older than the victims in this video, but the conversations are so scarily familiar. When I was a tween (pretending to be a little older but still a minor), I had men being creepy to me on mIRC (think proto-Discord) in a popular cartoon fandom. I didn't know what else to do but kind of humor them and do the Internet equivalent of laughing nervously. They took advantage of my burgeoning curiosity about sex and got off on my discomfort at being sexualized. Fortunately (?), none of them ever got to the point of threatening violence to me or themselves. I was also never sent, uh, phallus photography or coerced to provide my own. Such photos weren't impossible in the early 2000s, but this was before the ubiquity of quality cell phone cameras. They also didn't know my private details. Still, the conversations alone stick with me. I wasn't the only one, and these guys definitely zeroed in on underage girls. A couple of them even drew NSFW art of elementary-school-aged characters. The fandom just kind of... tolerated them. Even defended them against the few people who rightfully took them to task. It's difficult to imagine any of that flying now. They'd be appearing in videos like this.
Well, then thats your fault for trying to act older 😂
You lost me at "popular cartoon fandom"

I had a similar experience, still a minor but when I was around 10-ish was unfortunately victim to around the same kind of behaviour. I had an interest in cats, thought they were the cutest things ever and downloaded a game called "kitten cat simulator 3D" or something like that, it was on the appstore when I had a tablet. It was fine for a while, i occasionally joined public lobbies to cause destruction as it was a "break things, point reward" thing to keep dumb kids like me enticed. Although I was eventually made known that the game was a host to sexual activity and ERP. Whicchh I did infact fall prey to on numerous occasions by people presumably 16-17+ based on the grammar, typing skill, and orientation level they had. Its so weird, knowing a game as small and stupid at that could host so many.. gross people. I'm glad it didn't get to me sharing images or them sharing images but it was surely a bad experience. Its sad that people go through this, especially young girls who aren't taught better early on and are constantly sexualized like i was.

my major concern is that a lot of these kids are getting interviews about it on youtube and not by the police.
To be fair, police don't usually have TH-cam channels and not every case is public.
@@s.i.m.poster6823 if the police was involved none of this would be public until the perpetrators are behind bars, the fact these interviews even happened proves that either, 1. They did go to the police but don't care about justice so they posted this all before the trial giving the defendants an easy mistrial due to jury prejudice or 2. they didn't go to the police and want clout instead of justice, with the Onision case the FBI literally said they couldn't do anything because Chris Hansen interviewed the victims before they did, and that it was publicised.
You know it’s bad when Tom has to make a spiritual successor to one of his previous videos exposing the monsters in a community!

Roblox is an awful game filled with cringe, degeneracy, boring and unoriginal "games", exploiting "game developers", creepy ugc anime faces, preds, preds who make inappropriate avatars that are so bad they look like they came from an explicit anime, and toxicity so bad it rivals chernobyl, and far far more; And to top it off, Roblox corporation doesnt care despite being exposed several times for even more things that i didnt say

15:00 I feel so bad for this girl. But it also serves as an example of why parents should never let their children on the internet unsupervised. She wasn't even old enough to use discord. But she knew all about these horrible topics, got brainwashed, and people still took advantage of her.
I bet she was already a bit disturbed. She probably had problems already and discord just made it worse for her
Yeah, true. She was really playing into his little gane
I hope you know what a great resource you are for parents and children alike. This level of considered journalism is informative and helpful.
Thank you.

@@LavaCreeperPeople ur roblox account is online right now 💀
"jokes" are used to test/push boundaries, it's a tactic predators use to hide behind. these people are vile.
Its still surprises me everytime i watch these types of videos that people like this actually exist
The degree to which they avoid their actions, attempt to say there is no evidence, and repeatedly try to sweep it under the rug as it’s “a joke” is beyond baffling.
Being someone who has been groomed and sexually abused growing up, it's saddening how easy it is still for a predator to get to children on the internet and it's even sadder how children ignore warnings from us, adults, to stay away from adult sites, NSFW profiles and whatnot since, a lot of us, experienced shit we don't want them to.
i commented on this but youtube took it down. anyway im sorry for you. also: Jadon shedletsky. does the name ring any bells? if not, do not search it. forget it.
That really unerstands alot of people and it is danger for people come in contact with and I have enough knowledge to know why this is bad behavior for many people.
It is unfortunately sad to see that some of these children are actually actively pursuing creeps. I have had an underage girl message me on a friend/dating app saying that she wanted older men, I proceeded to tell her that I was disgusted and offered some advice like potentially seeking out help from a medical professional. She basically said no and that she was going to keep doing it, so I reported her account and blocked her, there was nothing else I could do. I feel like many of these kids are suffering from mental health issues, a lack of parental love or other issues, hence why they engage in self destructive behaviour, something really needs to be done about this.
Didn't that have a name once? Goldfish or something?
The kid seeks out the creep to try to get free shit from them, strings them along until they can't handle it anymore, then blocks the creep.
Its terrible, and insanely dangerous for the child, but some kids seem to think they can be smarter than the predator, and that, despite the fact they sent their shipping address so they could get that free xbox, they are fine as long as they block the guy afterwards.@@cagxplays9602
Man I'm kinda surprised and thankful that you included the Euphoros case, I can't believe that after so many cases of grown ass men grooming children all over these years made me forget about one of it's pioneers, I'm still shocked and scared on how just a few years ago these type of dramas of child diddlers were extremely rare (1 or 2 being exposed for the entire YEAR) most of the times of 2017 were nonsensical minuscule dramas between users or just complains about the site, but now most of the time it iss pure degenerates all across the website taking advantage on children.

they have been very prevalent since early 2000s, but they were extremely common even during the usenet era, during the ICQ era, during the MSN messenger era, during the yahoo chatroom era and even during the mIRC communities era, it really exploded as internet became more accessible and widespread for the average population. The begginings of Reddit, when Digg was popular, and back during the beggining of 4chan, when moot was posting naked pictures of himself on every board, saw a lot of small communities that groomed children around the topics they loves, including cartoons, games, and more.
It's always being there. It was just less frowned upon for some reason. It was less documented. It was seen as something that just happened, and was only moderated by deleting and warning people. Looking back during the 90s and 2000s internet, it really makes me think how little people cared about stuff like this. Even if you reported it, it would rarely get the perpetrator prosecuted and banned. It was always 'Just a joke'. They would usually reply to you with 'Welcome to the internet'.
A place where it happened a lot during early 2000s was during the boom of the MMO era. You would make guilds, have friends, connect, organize and enjoy the game together with people all around the world. I used to be a prominent leader of a clan in Conquer Online. One clan member would try to ask me to move out and live with her and send me pictures of her breasts to my e-mail. She wanted to visit me. She wanted me to marry her. I was 12. She was 45. This was back in 2001. Got many personal experiences like this.
There was a place where i remember people were groomed a lot too: the Aeriagames forums. They would make competitions where you exposed yourself with pictures of you, recordings of your voice, your room, where you live, what you do, what you love, what you dislike. People would get harrassed and doxxed, stalked irl, and groomed on a daily basis.
It's how it's always been. It's a good think it's being exposed and documented better during the last decade.
@@LavaCreeperPeople U forgot to mention the quake trilogy (though its kinda dead) and the doom trilogy
They probably appeared extremely rare because no one was reporting them... I remember my mum telling me stories about how normal it was for her to go to a friend's house growing up and her friends would say something like "Stay away from grandpa he's a bit handsy" ...
@@mmmcola6067 yeah! never played quake though
I used to play Roblox with my daughter, and we encountered a bunch of random friend requests.
The in-game chat moderation was pretty strict, which was good. Having some gaming knowledge helped, but I firmly believe parents should actively monitor their kids' online activities.
As they grow older, it might become more challenging, but regularly checking and understanding the parental controls is crucial for a safe online experience.
This.
Parents.
Play with your kids.
They want you to play with them, and it ensures that they have someone to turn to when things become unsafe.

Famous last words.
There are so many people who joke about being attracted to children on roblox too. It's sickening. I haven't played in a while, and recently tried to play a game on roblox, only to see that it was full of bad avatars yelling about kidnapping and being attracted to kids. Disgusting.
I'm glad I finally found someone covering the problems on "Rate my avatar".
4:33
this is common practice due to Roblox's spotty moderation often taking action when it shouldn't and idling when it should take action, and groups are more prone to false positives so what people do is they make a "holder" account for the soul purpose of taking the hit should the group get banned since the owner's main account tends to have value, even some larger groups do this so it's not a surprise.

25:22 that moderator note , Oh yes
i love the fact that their defense is always 'they started it!' it literally does not matter. even if a kid threw themselves at you naked, if you do anything but shut that shit down you're fucking up. minors are minors for a reason, namely their developing brain (yes, i know that you can make the case that an 18yo doesnt have a fully developed brain yet either, but there is still a huge developmental gap between the average 14 yo and the average 18yo). There is simply no valid excuse to engage in that way with a literal child. ever.
Or the 'It's just a joke bro, dark humor amiright?'
At 22:32 he says "for the safety of himself as well as the safety of his VICTIMS" he didn't t say "other parties" or anything along those lines. That's a Freudian slip right there.
Good eye didn't notice that but as goose boose said "never trust a manipulator or pedophile"
PLEASE cover Sonar Studios, creators of the infamous "Creatures of Sonaria", they literally bait kids into promoting their game by offering them exclusive tradeables. Not only that but they manipulate young artists into making concepts for their games and then underpaying them and sometimes even not paying at all. And it gets worse. The owner of the group, Erythia, has on numerous occasions made pee jokes in the general chat of her discord server where the majority are minors, and is overall a disgusting and egotistical person. A good fella by the name of Frown_U2 has covered a lot of these issues in some of his videos, so if you want more information I recommend going to him.

A little correction: Roblox devs can't decide what the age rating for their game is. They basically take a survey for their game so Roblox can automatically age rate their game.
