Account Restrictions

Roblox offers users of all ages the ability to socialize and play experiences with others in the community. There are multiple opportunities to chat with others, and various experiences that offer different experiences from Adventure to Combat to Role Playing, and more. We do allow experiences with some forms of cartoon violence, as long as they are not overly graphic or realistic. However, Roblox does offer a feature that allows parents to limit the ability to chat, and types of experiences their children can access. Parents can learn more about how we keep kids safe and our parental controls with our Parents Guide.

 

What happens when Account Restrictions are enabled?

Enabling Account Restrictions will lock an account's Contact Settings so that no other user can send messages nor chat in-app or in-experience. None of these Contact Settings can be individually adjusted when Account Restrictions are turned on. Enabling Account Restrictions will also limit play to only experiences that are recommended for All Ages through our Allowed Experiences controls
