-13 Kick Script

[Happy_Errors]

Make the player send a message with a word that only gets filtered for <13 users, but for 13+ users, it won’t, for example the word Swix. If the word gets filtered, then it means that the player is <13 so you can kick them, otherwise, don’t kick them.

[Dualillusion]

Yes you have a point. But maybe hide the setting? Cuz kids are too lazy to even go to the settings unless they are big brain.

[rc8s]

Well if they are 8 or 9 they will be too lazy yes. But 12, not so much.

[Dualillusion]

U could maybe add it to if u want blood on, u need to be 13+?

[Dualillusion]

Mean, 12 is at the age of where u see some gore. There is a small difference between 12 and 13. Some 12 year olds can handle stuff that are rated-R. And some 12 year olds can’t handle gore. But even if they click it and you give them a huge warning, its on the player at that point.

[rc8s]

The only thing is the only method to determine if they’re age is my method which only works on 13+ so I guess just do your way.

[Dualillusion]

And its the most reliable way too. So we have no other choice

[KJry_s (MalleoZephyris)]

Instead of your solution I suggest having a button like in Mortem Metallium, having a button to toggle blood (it’s toggled off first).

[Dualillusion]

Problem with that is children gonna click it since its the most obvious thing to click then getting scar for the next month.

[KJry_s (MalleoZephyris)]

Yes, but Blood Flow, also know as the old Mortem Metallium got banned because they had so much blood. After which they implimented the button to toggle it.

It’s a roblox issue, children know what they’re getting into. It’s like clicking on a site knowing you shouldn’t.

[rc8s]

I really, REALLY doubt they will unless they are under 8

[Volieb (Vinny)]

You can check if the user has safechat by using FilteredText.

[rc8s]

I don’t think filtering enabled has anything to do with this, you can use my method at best unless that is what you mean. Edit: Nevermind I re read your post lol

[Volieb (Vinny)]

I was just gonna reply then I saw ur edit lol

[NTwistedHere]

here is something until the age restriction thing is released
(server sided script)

game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	if game:GetService("Chat"):FilterStringForBroadcast("<13", Player):match("#") then
		Player:Kick("Under 13")
	end
end)

Personally, the ROBLOX community has a huge player base that is under 13, primarily due to the fact they don’t have anything really to do. I actually brought this a few years back on the old forums. I didn’t go through with the project, because of the risk of the game getting taken down. You are also missing an important factor. People can lie about their age.

As commonly known, some cafes, military groups, and almost every group. Requires certain roles/ranks to join their Discord, have no safety chat, and over 13. There is no real way to prove that is over the age of 13 unless you know them in real life.

Example;
I don’t share my age or any real personal information on any platform. I put my age on line as 90 years old.

Will they know that is not my real age No, because they don’t know me in real life.

@rc8s

Again it should not violate COPPA unless you collect data on the child.

COPPA is something that should be TAKEN seriously. It’s a federal regulation that can shutdown the/a whole company in a second.

@TheChasingBoy

By the way, some people have said I would “save info”, no.
It’s supposed to be a script that determines if the account is under 13 or not and if they are they will be kicked from the game.
Not giving me their birthdate,
Not making the script collect data,
just kicking the player if the account is under 13, using some system that probably has to do with the chat filter.

As stated above, that is a bad idea due to the fact even, if you above 13 some things are still TAGGED.

Making a script to detect if someone is under the age of 13, is EXTREMELY risky and will most likely get your game taken down.

@TheChasingBoy

At this point, I’m not going to do this and call off of blood/weapon throwing in the game, because the replies here have stated legal action, account moderation, etc.

Can be an option is so desire, but there is an option, which is making a warning UI/GUI, that they must agree with to play the game. This is will work cause if they only have to click I Agree or something like that, then you be a liability for the user age from that point forward. Everything comes down to liability. No one wants to go to court over something, it cost more money than anything even if you win.

You have a few options;

1. Add a warning that players must agree to.
2. Just don’t add blood/gore to your game

@AlertShamrock

that is a bad idea due to the fact even

In the statement you quoted, I said this:

@TheChasingBoy

The thing is though, I’m not doing this with the information of the replies, so you can go ahead and call off of this.

[5bind (spy)]

Sorry it’s fine.
I really have just given up on this game between the replies here and the other toxic stuff in other topics I’ve made.
Plus I really have no reason to make this

[rc8s]

Yes things are still tagged, my point is less things are tagged, the number “13” is not tagged if you are 13+, that is why I came up with my idea.

[54xto]

Then don’t do numbers, but the good ol’ “C7RN”
