Roblox is releasing Roblox Kids (under 9), Roblox Select (9-15), and the standard Roblox (16 ). This will roll out in early June and change how parental control works on that platform. Roblox Kids (<9) will have: - access to games with a Minimal or Mild content maturity label. - all communication disabled by default. Parents have the option to enable chat, however, it will be restricted to Trusted Friends & users under 13. Party chat will be unavailable. - a distinctive blue background. Roblox Select (9-15) will have: - access to games with a Minimal, Mild, or Moderate content maturity label. - for ages 9-12, users will have access to see experience chat, but unless a parent permits their child to use chat in-game, it is not enabled by default. If doing so, they can chat with users under 16 & Trusted Friends. They can use Party Chat for Trusted Friends or a group of six after receiving parental consent. Parents have the option to turn this off. - for ages 13-15, chat is enabled by default, text and voice chat options are also available. Users can chat with ages 9-17 or Trusted Friends. - a distinctive visual treatment indicating account type. Roblox (16 ) will have: - Visibility into friends, screen time, and spending until the user has reached the age of adulthood, which is 18. - Chat is on by default, unless banned in your region. - All content maturity labels, excluding Restricted. Users will automatically transition from Roblox Kids -> Roblox Select -> Roblox upon reaching the proper age. Roblox will not allow Roblox Kids & Select to feature games with sensitive issues, social hangouts, or free-form drawing games; however, parents can approve specific games that are otherwise unavailable to their child.

🤯 Roblox REMOVES classic faces, UGC creators are going bankrupt, and artists are losing jobs! This is the main narrative around the recent Marketplace Policy for Heads update – and it's FALSE❗️ Most tweets and DevForum posts I've seen on this are highly misinterpreted and misleading, and I'd like to debunk them: Firstly, classic faces (including their value) aren't just disappearing – they're being migrated or updated, as you could say, into fully animatable dynamic heads while maintaining the same aesthetics. So, you're not losing your spent Robux or items. Moreover, you're getting a free upgrade. Secondly, UGC creators are given a time period to update their currently selling static faces and heads with dynamic heads. If this is done the same as with Shoes previously uploaded as Pants, sales traffic will be maintained after the items are updated. Thirdly, artists that built careers on drawing static faces will still be in demand, but instead of drawing for a plain static mesh texture, they will be required to draw over a more detailed animatable model. It's a small adjustment, but nothing critical that'd completely kill your skill. Why is Roblox doing this? From my perspective, static heads and classic faces have been a huge bottleneck for new innovative features like makeup, in-game facial animations, voice chat, etc. Though I do oppose a lot of Roblox's recent decisions and features, this is not one of them, and I think the community's reaction to it is way blown out of proportion. Comment if I'm wrong – perhaps I'm missing something 🤔 #Roblox #RobloxDev #RobloxArt

Roblox says "On Roblox, self-expression is foundational to how users show up. This is powered by you..." Then in the NEXT SENTENCE announces they're removing all classic faces and forcing players to wear dynamic faces. I CAN'T AHAHAHAHAHA
