Why should I be surprised?

If you look at the Roblox community, online dating or ODing for short has been a long issue in Roblox, just watch greenlegocat123's videos, and you will see that Roblox's admins will overlook, if not support this shit... but ban people for saying "crap" or something.

spoiler

I remember as a youth (think 10-12) I had multiple online "relationships" with people who outwardly told me they were 20, 24, 30, 19... etc. etc. This was on WoW and IMVU.

Some of them knew I was 10-12. Others thought I was 15.

I also had some pretty good online relationships that I look back on both fondly and cringily... with others my own age.
