Why is it still a huge deal on ROBLOX when it doesn't deserve to... It's simple, nowadays the majority of the ROBLOX players always compare Online Dating to people trying to get virtual BF/GF, romantic interaction in-game, gross stuffs happening in-game, and probably more romantic related stuff in-game such as dating in a restaurant etc. But all of these is far from a real Online Date. And the Youtubers who make video on ODers only to show 2 players having a romantic relationship in-game aren't helping but make it even worse than it already is and easily give lies to their community.

It's still important to acknowledge that Online Dating is simply about using the Internet to find a (love/dating) partner to meet/date IRL, and the ROBLOX community is filled with kids and -18 Years old people, who most likely doesn't know how to execute an Online Date so why is it still a problem that people care about and act like it's dangerous? And heck, what kind of adult would think about "ROBLOX" when it come to finding love using the Internet when there are other websites made just for this...

I know online dating is dangerous... But they act like a virtual relationship is dangerous when it doesn't mean any harm at all and I'm like "THEY CALL THIS ONLINE DATING?!?!?". Even having a BF/GF around the Internet is innocent and doesn't hurt, so these "Anti-ODers" shouldn't harm players for trying to get one.

And I'm betting that the ROBLOX rule about "looking for dates or dating partners" doesn't heavily implie the definition that the majority of the community is currently using, that's probably why they don't care about this whole "ODer" rant (I mean... Look at the amount of popular Youtubers who made videos on "ODers" yet ROBLOX act like nothing important happened) as they know that their community just doesn't acknowledge what an OD really is and they are right about that as they could've banned so many innocent players if it was for them to not know what ODing is.

So yea, this rant is just pointlessly continuing and it should just stop as it's either getting ridiculous or just stupid up to the point where the day ROBLOX will talk about what ODing really is they will be put to shame so hard (even tho it will probably never happen). Like they did to this John Doe situation where they made a blog regarding this only to Debunk It and put all the Youtubers who were using "John Doe" for their videos to a quiet awkwardness.

And then some games like ROBLOX highschool, Meepcity, etc are still being targetted for these non-existent "ODers" and it make me feel bad for them, they just don't deserve it for something as ridiculous as this

And so, I'm recommanding EVERY anti-ODers to simply stop players when they ask for adresses, phone numbers etc which is what will allow a person to potentially execute an OD.

And yea this comment pointlessly have a bunch of lines as it's kind of repetitive and I really wish I could've made it short... So I'm just separating some lines to some kind of categories and I love doing this
