If you have a kid that plays Roblox or Minecraft please take some time today to look up the 764 group. It's kids and adults targeting children from these games. Give me a thumbs down, put me in hosp , I know this is in the wrong section and I don't really care . The more eyes on it the better. Just please educate yourself on these guys if you have children .

Mr-Ty [2956578]

Absolutely wild to move this but do you . I get it , you're doing your job . Id  think torn would want as many people to see this as well wouldn't they ? 

Offertory [2487783]

Maybe I downvoted because you are an illiterate moron who posted off-topic discussion to GD, then also spammed more poorly written dribble in another 2 forums. 

If your retarded spew of text is so important, maybe spend more than 20 seconds typing it and explaining yourself more clearly.

 

You sound like a dumbass.

Mr-Ty [2956578]

Everything you just said is completely irrelevant to me when compared to the discussion at hand . Who gives af where it's posted when it's an issue like this. I don't understand your thought process at all . I care more about the issue at hand , than I do a period or a comma. You should too.. Are you telling me because of how it was written you feel it's less important??

There is some truth to his argument, yes. Buddha says Mindful Speech is three things: Time, Tone, and Truth. 

Telling the truth about this right now is very important. But if you cannot deliver it in a way people can take seriously, which yes, means punctuation and complete sentences, people may not take you seriously. 

It is a serious subject, and thanks to you, I will now be on the lookout with my 7 year old, thank you. But unless you are actively being chased by someone, perhaps put more effort into your original post. 

IrisNepthys [3528214]

What... are you saying ? 

I can't understand. Like legit- not being mean or anything I swear. I'm unsure if you are with this or against this.. 

IrisNepthys [3528214]

OH ! 


You're the OP. 
Okay got it they moved it and you're angry. 

Which- fine. 

But at the same time.. I get staff's point. 
I do totally approve this needs to be known more and seen- but I get staff too. It IS ''about'' gaming and will affect people in the gaming world mostly (and their kids, but- it makes sense)

Robbo [1826175]

After everything going on in roblox you're a f**king idiot if you let your kid keep playing it

 

What the f**k is wrong with you?

Cryoside [3877691]

Im not going to judge on your punctuation and sentence structure.

 

I do thank you though as this is something people should know about.

DocFox [2664828]

Was it really that wild, though?  The mods move topics to the appropriate place for the topic they represent.  Your post was about a game that is not TORN, and thus was put into the Gaming sub-forum where the other non-TORN game topics are.  It seems pretty standard to me.

Cute [2068379]

Not trying to downplay it but 764 and all these other "Com" groups are LARPs, kind of like Anonymous. It's just lots of losers claiming a trendy name to seem more powerful than they are. You don't need to educate yourself on the LARP, you need to educate yourself on technology and know what your kids are doing online, or just don't let them on in the first place.

Robbo [1826175]

well yeah, except roblox is pretty widely know to be unsafe for children these days

 

not for 764 whoever that, is but the plethora of *****s and podophiles plaguing the game, pretty widely published at this point 

Cute [2068379]

I mean, if you just hand them a device with internet and let them do whatever they want without watching them, absolutely. But at that point you've already failed as a parent and nowhere else will be safe either. If you're actually monitoring what they're doing Roblox isn't any less safe than anything else.

IrisNepthys [3528214]

Honestly- facts. 

If I had kids, I would NEVER let them on Roblox. I am aware kids can bypass that and not respect rules- but trust me I'd do what I can to keep them out- Parental control- Sneaking on their electronics even if it breaks their trust a little- ONLY for that purpose to keep.them.safe. 

I was once close to get caught in shit like this as a kid- but my mom had educated me real good and I sniffed red flags right away or showed her everything and it's so easy to be a victim. 

I'd let them play only if I knew they were mature enough or if I'd be activly playing with them. 
But that's just me. A kidless adult. 

Robbo [1826175]

hah

 

yeah right, because watching over their shoulder the entire time is completely healthy. You might get away with it when they're young, but try that as they get older

 

you can teach them online safety, to be careful online, they teach it in schools. We play all sorts of games together, he likes FPS games, bit of Siege, we do VR, but yeah, hard pass on roblox thanks

 

I don't care, just not going to willingly expose my kid to paedophiles
