To my knowledge, Roblox only cracks down on groups that strictly say they give out Robux because most of the time they ask for donations from members and most of the groups typically are scams. Roblox has rarely went off at giveaways or giveaway groups, they only go after scammy mediums. A lot of these YouTubers get terminated instead because they were never planning to hand out the money in the first place, and Roblox is watching them rather closely looking for some reason to terminate them after all of their misconduct. Did I mention that their funds are often via illegitimate means?

That rule surprisingly is not enforced too heavily by Roblox unless you, again, are caught and you are actually using it to scam, especially with illegitimate funds.

Like with my own Robux I should have the rights to decide what's done with my 100% properly obtained group funds (in my case, via clothing sales) as long as I am not using it to scam. If I want to donate some to someone in need as an one-off situation I might, though it's pretty rare as once you donate to one person everyone wants something.

Free robux groups often serve as one-off scam groups where the group owner grabs as many donations to "give to those in need", takes the money and runs off. Hence the heavy enforcement on them as of late. Roblox otherwise doesn't seem to care much about the rule.
