Roblox being in trouble feels like a cliche these days. The company is permanently in the dog box for the most obscure and immoral reasons. Roblox always seems to go above and beyond <\/strong>with its immorality that it actually came as quite a surprise when we learned that it was guilty of the most basic offense known to the video gaming industry – not having a proper anti-cheat protocol in place. <\/p>\n\n\n

This is a company that has been implicated in everything from allegations of rampant child exploitation to the sick trend of exploiting the time and talents of young game developers<\/strong> for free. Unfortunately, this new allegation is still a rather significant offense, albeit not one the platform can be prosecuted for. Cheating is a problem in most games, but, as usual, Roblox takes allowing cheating to an extreme. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A simple Google search for Roblox hacks <\/strong>or cheats will reveal pages of search results that offer everything from free in-game currency to hacks that add-ons that literally aim for you. This proves how dire the platform\u2019s problem with hackers is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a hacker on a server is detrimental to the average player who just wants to have a good time within the various games available on Roblox. Still, it seems the problem is even more dire for developers <\/strong>and moderators. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

i have pretty much resigned myself to never work on a competitive game on Roblox again, because the experience of maintaining it against a constant wave of cheaters without any effective tools is a nightmare<\/p>— Polyhex (@tylermcbride) August 1, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote>
