A user (whom someone else now banned from LW, I guess,) reported this post for child predation. I get that, given:
a) Roblox only recently putting better communication regulations in place,
b) the multiple states suing them,
c) People Make Games' reporting (which I encourage anyone interested in Roblox to watch.)
But banned-user, you probably won't be surprised to find out that I'm going to let this post stand. Not only because I posted it, but because I do hope that if anyone here is already developing for Roblox, they're able to best take advantage of these programs available to them. And I believe there's a greater chance of that, than a young child finding these posts and considering them inherently a recommendation of Roblox over other development options.
But you be either happy or disgusted to know that I did consider this before the post. I've posted about Roblox before, and made that call.
