I mean I’m assuming you want the service to get past the questionnaire, so that 17+ players can still have 17+ features but <17 players can’t.
(I meant 17+ features, not games, sorry)

Can’t you guys just moderate it? That seems like the better solution instead of taking away chat.
Also, everyone’s immune to predators, its not just people under 13. Please moderate instead of taking away!
Hi Everyone,
Today, we’ve started enforcing the changes we announced last month. Starting today, users under 13 are not able to play experiences without content maturity labels, and soon won’t be able to search or discover these experiences.
We highly recommend you fill out the experience questionnaire so that your experience receives a content maturity label and is available to more users. Go to Creator Hub > Creations > Select an experience > Audience > Maturity & Compliance.
Thank you.

Will the social hangout label get enforced since the top hangout games still uses the “Minimal” label
Any labels that resulted from previously taking the questionnaire will remain applied to the experience, assuming the experience wasn’t moderated. Beginning this week, we will begin moderating experiences for these two new interactive features as well as the fear descriptor. So we recommend that for this and any future policy updates, you promptly retake the questionnaire to ensure your experience remains labeled.

Hi there,
Your experience must meet both criteria below to be considered a social hangout:
- The primary theme or activity is to chat with, or otherwise interact with, other users (strangers or friends) with voice or text
- Players interact with others as themselves or as their avatar
If you meet this criteria but it is not the primary theme or activity in your experience it is out of scope for this policy.

When is Roblox going to moderate larger developers and experiences? I bring this up because Doors is non-compliant, as it contains elements that fall under “Mild Repeated Fear” and it does not have the Fear content descriptor. Doors also hasn’t had the Fear content descriptor ever since it was added to the platform, a fact that demonstrates potential negligence from LSPLASH, the game’s owner.
Please prove to me that I can trust Roblox’s moderation in all cases both large and small, thanks.
Does Doors make you feel fear? Realistically, it has horror elements, but they don’t scare anyone I’ve talked to.
As for your trust issue, this is the first thing you’ll see if you go to DOORS’ page. If you really don’t like “horror” games that much.
Also, this was announced on the Devforum in an unrelated post. Big developers don’t use the forums as often, from what I know.
Yes, you should be starting to see more top experiences and smaller experiences be impacted as moderation works through the list of violative experiences that we have identified.
We are aware of Doors as well as other horror experiences, and they are on our list as well. Thank you for sharing your concern, we definitely want our policies to apply fairly across all experiences.

Horrible Update, My Game Wheel Drawing obby does NOT need to be 13+ just because players get a fat pen on a small frame with only 1 color to draw 3d wheels, Now my questionaire was rejected and I’m loosing 80% of my playerbase for this
We clearly need more distinction here in terms of what kind of a drawing system is implemented, my game and other drawing obbies that are very limited as they are drawing using 3d circles should at most be ages 9+ and I hope this gets fixxed asap as drops in playercounts I notice in other games and mine is shocking
games with unmoderated drawing are getting 13+ed
That’s the point.
And that’s probably a good thing.
personally, I think it’s getting a little out of hand
I completely see where they are coming from with this decision, I don’t want kids to be exposed to nudity in some hyperrealistic drawing game! But not making a distinction between what kind of a drawing system is implemented seems braindead to me. There are currently two other physics based drawing obbies affected other than me and we all only allow drawings with one color and one width wich eliminates most inapropriate uses, the amount of ink allowed is also limited to allow for basic shapes to be drawn. No 12 year old is getting endangered in those games and I’m shocked at how stupid the people behind this update possibly are not making any distinction as such
still. it is free form user creation and it is restricted to 13+
No point in arguing with you but, I simply believe the solution they came up with is braindead and they don’t have the slightest idea how big of an impact this has for studios → -70% of any drawing games playerbase, And to now suddenly decide to harshly enforce this rule right before christmas is diabolical
