Doesn’t that 11 per billion statistic include commercial drivers as well? And doesn’t the United States have by far the largest percentage of commercial miles driven of any developed nation?

There’s a far cheaper solution available. Log books.


Roblox is effectively a casino for kids with more social elements than in adult casinos. The corporation failed to prevent children from rapists for decades. Why would any rational person trust them to implement either proactive communication filters or to even allow something so close to gambling amongst different age groups?

Roblox doesn’t deserve to be a business and I hope the lawsuits and equity markets solve that in a hurry.


Or perhaps you’ve aged out of a game that is primarily meant to be a place for children. The child safety measures make things more difficult for you because nobody wants you there. And it seems to be working as designed. Maybe it’s time to find a new game that’s more for your age group.

LOL, they literally said they want to play with other 18+ players alone. Without kids in the lobby, at all.

What are you, fun police? What's next, ban on bright coloured clothes?


You'd be surprised to know the sheer number of "experiences" and games people have created on roblox as the platform.

There are fps shooting games that are more playable/mature than your yearly call of duty/battlefield and all kinds of games for older age groups.

In that sense it's probably hard to "age out of it".


There’s a whole bunch of Roblox experiences clearly designed for adults. There’s dozens of us xD

I’m not sure if I’d say it’s better or worse, the games are higher quality because they need to be to keep an older adience engaged.


Roblox isn't a game, it's a platform. It has hundreds of millions of monthly users. A significant portion of those are 18+. And unsurprisingly there's plenty of games that target older audiences.

You’re unlikely to convince an adult of that age who has willingly spent 10s of thousands of dollars on a children’s game that they maybe shouldn’t be playing it.

Tens of thousands of robux. That's hundreds of dollars, reasonable for a long term player.

Ask me what I’ve spent on a League of Legends account I can no longer even use. My wallet weeps.

The sarcasm is neither funny nor well written. Nobody will care.

Back in the day, comments like this would not have been acceptable here. It’s low brow, unbelievably stupid, adds absolutely nothing and yet still manages to make you sound just a little racist. Good for you, all that on less than fifty words.

You're absolutely right. "Back in the day" (looking at your account, it was created in the 2010s), roughly 2010-2020, was the high water mark for politically correct moral proselytizing.

Your kind has lost the plot, your lies disinfected by the sunlight, and society is progressing back towards tolerating a bit more candid and colorful language. This is especially true with the latest generation who saw the effects of this overly paranoid policing of speech. It's a glorious thing. I am absolutely taking advantage of the fact that I can speech more freely nowadays.


Is it just me or did a fucking AI refuse to give a refund and then add a meme of Leonardo DiCaprio? Are there any actual adults with judgment left?

An sms blaster was never used in fraud like this in Canada. Does that really make that big of a difference to you?

There's a huge difference between "I like pineapple", and "I like pineapple on my pizza".

The claim was that this was the first time that a device like this has been used in fraud but go ahead, misread things and become outraged. I’m sure that in this case the fraudsters properly forwarded all 911 calls so no harm, no foul hey?

Would you mind deleting your account? Everything you’ve said this thread has been total garbage.

These comment sections are getting more and more useless by the day.
