Roblox Support - Blog Posts
So we got another update from Roblox Support!
A while ago, I've emailed them with this:
(I'm aware I've put the same sentence twice. I was.. tired and doing it all on my phone lol)
The Roblox games and groups in the transcript will NOT BE REVEALED. This is because I don't want to expose their usernames on Tumblr and have people going after them or stalking their Roblox profiles. The Roblox links will be shown as [LINKS REDACTED] instead.
Here's what I sent to them:
Roblox Support Ticket 74321950 Hello again! Thank you for your reply, I've attached links to information of the 18+ game and the experiences, and fan groups on Roblox. I hope that you may be able to do something about this. Here are the posts where the creator has repeatedly warned that her game is NOT suitable for younger audiences. -https://gatobob.tumblr.com/post/628262741099134976/patreon-faq-btdbtd2-tpof-etsy-merch -https://gatobob.tumblr.com/post/729810480719396864/im-not-comfortable-with-the-way-people-keep Information about the 18+ game and its' characters can be found here. -https://boyfriendtodeathgame.fandom.com/wiki/Boyfriend_to_Death -https://boyfriendtodeathgame.fandom.com/wiki/Boyfriend_To_Death_Wiki:Boyfriend_To_Death_Wiki -https://boyfriendtodeathgame.fandom.com/wiki/Strade -https://boyfriendtodeathgame.fandom.com/wiki/Ren_Hana -https://boyfriendtodeathgame.fandom.com/wiki/Lawrence_Oleander Here are the experiences on Roblox that features the game made by fans who are possibly minors. Although these experiences do not feature sexual content, the source itself is from an 18+ game and the creator of the gameis very uncomfortable featuring her characters on Roblox experiences.

Here are the fan groups on Roblox featuring the BTD game or characters.

I am also aware that there are also fan shirts being made on Roblox as well but it may be too many for me to link on this one message and I feel that I've listed a lot of links already. I would like to urge you and your team to take actions against these experiences and groups, and to respect the creator's wishes not to feature her characters onto Roblox. This can also be very concerning for parents as well. What if a young child were to stumble across one of these experiences on Roblox and decided to look up the source of the game? Please take serious actions for this. I wish to hear a reply soon or an update on this matter.
Thank you. - Casey
They got back to me, and this time it's Aria! Here's the screenshot of her reply.

I've checked the games and groups as of the time I'm writing this and it's still up. I'm guessing that a process like this could take quite a bit of time, and I'm hoping that they'll be able to take it down ASAP or censor "Boyfriend to Death".
Roblox shouldn't let BTD (and even TPOF content) be passed through. It's a game full of young children, and who knows what the hell would happen if a parent were to discover their kid roleplaying from a character that's from a horrorporn game?
I'd urge any adult BTD fans here to email to Roblox support staff as well. Gato can't do this all by herself.
You don't NEED to create a Roblox account to send a message and open a ticket with them. Just enter your birthdate and you'll be able to send a message to them and do what I did in this example picture.
When you finally receive an email in your inbox, please describe the situation about minors using Gato's 18+ content to make fan games. You may also NEED to do some digging of BTD Roblox games (Games are called experiences on Roblox), groups, and BTD outfits on the avatar shop BY YOURSELF.
You can also ask around in Adult verified BTD Discord servers who may be familiar with Roblox and exchange links of the games and groups etc so that you can send these links to Roblox support. I cannot put the links in a public post here because I'd be exposing the creators of the groups and fan games.
I don't want their profiles to be stalked or harassed even though they are minors doing the wrong thing.
But yeah, if you have any doubts, please message me, and I'll try to reply if possible.
Please help to keep minors safe and away from 18+ content, especially on Roblox. Thank you!
I'm not comfortable with the way people keep posting my content in places absolutely filled with minors- or even places built specifically for minors.
I see people posting my content on Tiktok, ageless forums, AI chatbots, Discord games, even children's games like Pony Town and Roblox.
And then people come to me- asking why I'm not keeping minors out.
I'm a single human person, and I'm usually dog tired from working on game development. I didn't even know what half of these places were until I saw someone's fan content of my characters in them.
What I'm saying is:
Adults, could you help me out? Could you exercise a little common sense here? I have people asking me if they should buy my body pillows on etsy for their 14 year old sister because she saw your tiktoks.
I can't do this by myself.
