Recently I was on my account playing Roblox. I got logged out as I was playing, opened the game to log back into my account and my information was changed. Someone hacked me and changed my email AND password. This meaning I cannot get into the account because I do not have access to the email the account is under anymore. I reached out to Roblox by submitting a support form and they absolutely are unhelpful. They have emailed me back with the same thing. "We can't help you any further until we verify the ownership of the account. By doing so you must submit a support form with the ticket number and the email associated with the account." This is so unhelpful, as I have already said I can't access the email to the account anymore. I offered to prove to them it was me by giving the the old email and password (which was mine before I was hacked), payment transaction IDs, Roblox receipts from when I purchased Robux, and the emails I have received from Roblox 2-Step Verification with my username on it, and they still won't help and except anything else besides the email. I called them, and they sent me straight to voicemail. I cannot get someone to pick up the phone so I can actually talk to them. It is a horrible customer support system and not secure enough if I had 2-Step Verification and they still let someone hack my account.

Roblox doesn't give a single $#*!
March 27, 2024
Updated review

I'm convinced that the entire roblox support team and roblox itself gives 0 care about their player base, why have options to send feedback if you aren't even gonna consider. Not to mention the long waits for ANY roblox support email, you guys ban for no reason, get mad when somebody sends email proof of somebody breaking the rules by using ingame names to bypass or other stuff. "explaining" how the report button does work, and no. No it doesn't i'm sorry but everyone in the community agrees about the lack of care in the support system and that none of you listen to your player base. It's a multi trillion company and yet you can't keep your site up, have good moderation etc, and let's not forget the meepcity incident. You say you value childrens safety yet ive seen kids as young as 6 on voice chat, ive seen so many dating games on roblox, gambling and almost every game on the front page is a cash grab. Roblox is supposed to promote creativity but any actual good games get swept under the rug. I know this comment won't do anything since again, you guys just don't care but if there is even the slightest chance it does speak some sense. May it be.

Unrightfull support
March 1, 2023
Previous review

So, i was hacked once and didn't get it back even after showing my id, showing proof of premium and when i finally got it back. My vc and age was changed by a hacker, i showed id 5 times waited month's they kept syaing it's my fault then FINALLY got it fixed, now i'm banned for a day because i stood up on vc against somebody who was spreading hate speech of LGBTQIA+ with his religion and wearing a bypassed naked shirt. I was banned for "discrimination" for saying " why should anybody care for your religion when you use it to spread lgbtq+ hate"

This app allows <13year olds to delete an email address so you can no longer recover the account once something goes wrong. Kids spend their $ on this app but will not support parents to retrieve an account when there is no email address. They should not be able to alter the settings when the account is registered to a child!

They are essentially stealing from kids who are devastated when something goes wrong. I have the password but the account demanded a reset which I could not complete 🤬🤯

There websites states they will help when no email address but this is incorrect.

ROBLOX do not give a fudge about their users' safety, they ignore reports and support tickets. The community cares about the website more than the actual company, which constantly release terrible, game breaking "updates".
The moderation is so bad in fact, that condos are more frequent then actual games.

Greedy selfish developers
February 24, 2024

The worst game ever. Customer service is pretty much non existent.
If you have more than 1 account good luck putting bucks on different accounts. This game should be banned
And destroyed. You are ruining. Relationships with families. All my child does is bet for roblox 24/7. We argue about the game all the time. You are tearing families apart. Shame on you greedy people. Creating a game that causes families a lot of problems.i will do everything i can to boycott this game. I am getting the same feedback from lots of parents. We hate your greedy game. My child gets teased constantly because we are to poor to buy roblox. I uninstall game and my child puts it back on i hope this happent to one of you founders of the game so you could really see what the game does to families

Porn, Hacking, and Deviants
February 17, 2024
Updated review

I've been a very very long player of Roblox and I've been on the platform since I was in 3rd grade, over a decade ago. I'm not going to mention my username anywhere here but today, I pondered on whether I would ever let my kids play this game now that I'm an adult. I would be lying if I said I didn't have a good time on this platform and I truly did, however, I can't recommend this game to anyone anymore, let alone children. They used to care about the players and community base, I know that as their game grew, moderation needed to be outsourced and made effective at the cost of quality but they straight up just don't care anymore. Ever since they raised the price floor of items sold using tickets before removing it outright, I was pretty upset but as an adult now, I understand that they were trying to monetize the game more under the veil of rewarding creators with more(shirts and pants creators at the time while ignore BC members being able to just copy clothes), enforce users to think of more sound decisions when purchasing, and it was also to uphold the quality and numbers of servers they could operate. Well, fast forward 7 more years, they've got the money now, the staff, the quality servers, and hires, and look at what they've become now. This is a game that's abandoned all of itself; what made Roblox actually Roblox to many of its OG users, and while I understand that the new must come at the cost of the old, the quality doesn't even follow where it should in a lot of important aspects. Just look at their Roblox support team and efforts, still the same copy-and-paste message over and over again. Look at their moderation efforts, if you don't know what rule 34 is, it best not to look it up, especially in tandem with the search term, "Roblox". Those games still exist and ironically, a lot of those fetish games have better quality than the crappy cash grab games that a lot of small to big companies that do joint events and ventures on Roblox (making promo games)make nowadays. It's actually hilarious! I'm very sad at how the game became, a soulless, money-focused, metaverse wannabe MMO.

Let's face it, Roblox support is terrible. If one doesn't know that Roblox support is terrible from the reviews and youtube videos, then they know it from personal experience. Any customer, player, or parent that has dealt with Roblox support knows how scripted and terrible their responses are, however, it wasn't always like this. Back in late 2009, Roblox used to ban players just for simply spamming "lol" or simple phrases in the chat and moderator notes for more serious inqueries were a lot more human and a lot less robotic and soulless. I understand that manually moderating players is quite a hazel to do and tedious, however, this isn't 2009 anymore and Roblox is now a multimilllion dollar company. One would think that a company of such size, popularity, especially amongst the kids, and networth, they would have just as much quality to back it up especially in "core sectors" or departments in their company. NO, they do not. If anyone remembers Roblox's twitch incident where the admins got a little too human, it really goes to show how the, now, ex-staff members really think of Roblox. Unlike the early times of Roblox where they actually listened to their playerbase and had consumer friendly practices, ever since they removed a free currency in their platform, tickets or "tixs," the focus has been shifted to making money. The platform's main target audience is children, so anyone else, that isn't an angry parent threatening to make bad PR, an influencer(like youtuber) or a known developer, then, you don't matter. As someone who has played Roblox since 3rd grade in elementary school, it's sad to see something that had so much potential waste away and lose its identity like this. Nearly every single update they've been putting out lately is targetted for more money or something that nobody asked for(like removing account statuses) and despite the negative feedback, they don't even listen to most of the developers on their forums anymore for input. Furthermore, their marketing and advertising is misleading to newcomers(showing anthro characters when nobody in roblox uses them) and whether purposefully or notit goes to show how disconnected they are to their community. Lastly, I'm also here because they terminated one of my accounts under suspicion that it's compromised and despite providing as much proof as I could, emailing them on all the emails I had linked on it, account details, and etc, of course, I get the scripted response and a vague rejection. Call this review a rant but I hate the people that works in Roblox support and development. This game has lost all my respect, and it's lost its identity, to which, it's clear that they are only focused on making more money now. Stay away from this game, it has no soul and certainly doesn't appreciate the many developers that try to put some soul in their games on their platform because Roblox is basically EA the second.

Roblox has mean bullies
January 29, 2024

So one day I was playing hide and seek extreme and someone thought it would be funny to throw insults at me for absolutely no reason! They were super mean like calling me "attention seeker" when all I was doing was constantly calling people noobs the entire time. It really is an unfair and toxic place in Roblox. Hopefully, David Brazilian fixes these issues ASAP
