Alright Turkey, you got your "one good deed" this year.
Spend the next four months thinking of what you want to do next year.
Chat is this based???
Based action by a not so based country.
Also just gacr the article a quick skim. Seems it's largely to do with protecting kids from pedophelia/sexual abuse, which I would imagine is a large problem on Roblox. Doesn't have anything to do with the real exploitation of child labor that has been documented and posted about on here before.
its effectively a large problem for any community that has a majority kid userbase with communications on. It's why in Flipnote 3d wasnt released for western audiences, as it was used by pedos in Japan to talk to children.
Bascially any popular game with children functionally has to have children comms turned off else it'd be a problem, and the only way thats being implemented is if its banned completely, or parents start monitoring what their children do/play (and we know the latter option is never happening because parents will never accept blame)
I saw clips of Roblox introducing voice chat which seems horrifying lol
... or you could pay for actual active moderation as a company, as in actually pay a living wage to a large standing army of moderators. Which is totally reasonable... except on Roblox specifically. Because they decide to exploit child labor and as a direct result have hundreds of thousands of individual servers made by children which would be physically impossible to moderate.
Also it isn't possible for Roblox to exploit child labor for moderation because that would be too obviously ghoulish. So they'd rather just not try to have any actual moderation whatsoever.
Which, I cannot stress this enough, fucking sucks. Kids shouldn't have to deal with this shit, they should just be able to play and be weirdo little chaos beings. : (
Flipnote 3D could've been downloaded through club Nintendo though it has no online features. You can only share animations by connecting to another 3DS locally which I'm pretty sure no one did.
Swapnote got completely shut down for the child abuse reasons you mentioned though. It got replaced by Swapdoodle years later which is the same thing, but without the ability to attach photos. Also with a ton of monetization.
Yes
Turkey is a turkish country. I am not surprised
source??
Turkey banned Instagram and now Roblox. This officially makes them the best NATO country
Extremely critical support.
Turkish Minecraft user base 👀
no more half measures walter
What exactly is Roblox? I see the name but I have no idea what it is. Can anyone give me a quick explanation? From what I've seen it looks like animated block dudes ala Lego or Minecraft
Pretty much, but a lot of the content (servers, skins, etc) are player made. A lot of things can be purchased with their monetized currency.
Kids make content->Roblox sells in game currency->Currency is spent on content made by said kids
Edit: I guess this didn’t actually answer your question.
Players program and design games in like a server builder. People have made Call of Duty, mobile-ish clicker games, pirate battles, Starfield-esque servers. There are limitations but there’s been some pretty high quality servers made. Pretty sure they are almost all player made.
That helps a lot. It sounded pretty great until you mentioned the monetization.
"Kids making games for other kids? How wholesome!" 
"In-game currency." 
As near as I can tell it's a very adaptable, easy to use framework for making video games. Speaking completely from ignorance it's kids making games for kids so the games appeal very strongly to kids. While this is very cool in a democratization of art kind of way Roblox is 100% explotative bullshit.
This is true, but also the top games tend to be created by teams of young adults and include (or just are) gacha for small children
WTF I LOVE ERDOGAN NOW
Good
Hell yeah let’s go
Any parent that has been asked to purchase Robux will tell you that this is a good thing
Turkey is a fascist country. I am not surprised
Fascism is when you don't allow child exploitation through video games, and the more child exploitation through video games you don't allow, the fascister you are.
Damn you beat me to it
Turkey is a fascist country
no shit, it's part of NATO
Yet the liberty loving US will allow children to be exploited without consequence
Child Exploitation is Awesome*
*As long as the operation is profitable
Fascism is when no child exploitation
What an incredibly bad take by someone from the apparently pro-child abuse shithole that is reddit.today
All 
must be sent to reeducation facilities for their own good.
In good faith - what are you getting at here? Turkey sucks, yeah, but...wut?
Fascism is when im not allowed to play roblox.
