If it was more than one specific type of age, I feel like Roblox would specify with a plural word… i.e Ages which would be more open to allowing multiple types of ages.
But once again, I’ve seen many games use age limits that have not been banned. Tons…
This post isn’t from a staff member and nowhere in the ToS or guidelines could I find anything pertaining to kicking new accounts from your game let alone anything mentioning new accounts in relation to games. Many games do this already and it is an effective strategy to stop exploiting/trolling even though exploiters will have access to old accounts because these accounts are often quickly banned.
I’ve frequently heard about “account age banning” being not allowed, but I’ve never seen a moderator confirm this and despite looking through ToS and guidelines prior I haven’t found anything that looks like it’s even remotely related. I think this is just a myth.
I would honestly recommend securing your game though in relation to exploits. Use at least some server side movement checks always, and especially in a game with simplistic Roblox movement such as a cafe or rpg. With trolls I can understand a week being reasonable, personally I think that anything more starts to defeat the purpose because new players will just never rejoin your game.
Read @Hexcede reply. He sums it up well. Also, you don’t need to repeat yourself, it’s not adding anything to the talk.
I’m aware it’s not by a staff member, but I did my research about discrimination on Roblox. The ToS is not specific enough to tell whether account age filtering is allowed or not, just age in general.
I’d like to know what these games are, but it’s still in the ToS that age discrimination is not allowed.
The chat filter already prevents players from providing their real age and developers don’t have access to users’ real age, so what other “age” can we be possibly dealing with?
It doesn’t literally say real-age, I don’t know why you’re still disputing this.
You already said this your self.
And as Hexcede said:
And so, it’s not the chat filter we’re talking about. This is an easy way to filter out some exploiters.
Unless a Roblox moderator wants to jump in and clarify I see no reason to continue this discussion if we’re going to be repeating our self.
Roblox employees are legally not allowed to comprehend the ToS for us(as I’ve read), I wouldn’t expect much.
My point is not the chat filter, my point is there’s no other possible age that can be exposed to the public other than account age, which narrows down the ToS issue.
I’m gonna stop here, we have our own perspectives on the matter. This is going into circles as you’ve mentioned.
My take of it is that a user says their age in chat and then a game owner bans them, or makes fun of them.
Once again, we’re not going to get scarification… Nice talk, have a good day! Maybe we can argue again sometime 
I’ve seen models like Epix Admin (EISS) be adjusted as per Roblox’s request for having account age requirements; this in combination with the overwhelming consensus in the developer community that age requirements appear to be against the community rules.
Really? If you look about one line up, it makes it very clear what it’s talking about when it says age.
We have users of all ages and we want to create safe environment for all of them, including children.
Including children definitely refers to actual age. I’m sure the rules would specify if they were suddenly changing their definition of “age” partway through.
Number 4 is for child endagerment, not discriminatory actions. I’ll treat those as separate.
The chat filter does not prevent minors from 13-18 from providing their real age. Those users are still children. Regardless, the rules would be more specific if they had suddenly changed the definition of age that was consistently used throughout the rest of the article.
So are you saying you’d filter out players 13 and above? I’m considering what the previous OP wants to achieve.
But they’re not specific enough. Account Age is still a type of Age. Until the ToS can clarify further, Age is still defined too general to make any conclusions.
Based on the context of which this is posted in, this means real age.
In my opinion it seems okay to have a script restricting based on account age. I know hundreds of games which do it (this is especially prevalent in roblox communities)
You also need to realise if this is true then games such as: https://www.roblox.com/games/4669056864/Flex-Your-Account-Age
Would also not be allowed.
ToS context is defined by you until you consult a lawyer or the ToS makes it specific. I’d rather stick to a general concept than speculations.
Why not? Account Age is publicly available information, if this wasn’t allowed then they wouldn’t create API for everyone to access this. Unless the game has some sort of discriminatory feature, I’d say it’s perfectly fine.
You’ve just contradicted yourself. I agree that it is most likely allowed as they made it publicly available! Therefore limiting games based on account age is probably allowed. However, if you argue that it is discrimination then that game which gives users benefits for their account age would also be discrimination to those who have lower account ages and can’t get those items.
The game has a completely different purpose lol
it just shows your account age in a billboard gui. No discrimination is happening at all. @wevetments did not contradict himself
No I have not. It’s completely your responsibility on how you choose to use the API. The ToS has changed over time, so it’s arguable if the API has any use in the present that doesn’t violate the ToS.
You can even access a user’s physical location with Localization Service and expose/filter if you wanted to. Any discriminatory actions on that would fall under National origin.
This thread has gotten detailed from its original purpose. The question has already been answered and I was not referring to kicking for account age but rather disabling minor features that could be exploited or abused with mass account creation.
