Seems you're right:

What this of course reveals (or confirms) is that for the last 18 years, Roblox has offered no way to prevent pre-teen children from accessing chat with complete strangers. Strangers who, as the Hindenburg report demonstrated, can sometimes be organized groups of pedophiles using Roblox to get access to children.
