Why do people have such a big problem with Roblox in general?

I can see why people hate the weird "Adopt a child or whatever the hell' side of Roblox but it actually isn't all like that, there are some decent games on Roblox so I don't see why the game itself gets so much hate.

I was asking a genuine question and I don't see how this adds to this post in any shape way or form.

Because of the playerbase

Eh that much makes sense, the 6 year olds on Roblox are rather annoying.

I find that everyday ROBLOX becomes ROLEPLAY WITH LEGOS
The fact is Jailbreak has been first for almost a year

I think its really about 'engine envy'. We saw it all before.Here is how this sentence has morphed

You use <random engine> you're not a real gamedev/that's not a real game

Flash
RPG Maker
GameMaker
ROBLOX
Minecraft
Unity

its really just lazy short hand for people who can't actually put together a coherent argument use to denigrate something. The only thing that's changed is the noun used as these ignorant people see the next 'big' thing coming up and decide that's not a 'real' thing

To anyone out there. Did you make something? You're a game dev and you made a game. Dont let some troll on the Internet tell you otherwise.

Indeed. A simple game can have the edgiest and most toxic communities. Cases in point: Five Nights at Freddy's, today's Minecraft and TF2.

Heeeey! There it is. The most accurate representation of the communities. "Sorry, sir, this is a kid's game, so no hate".

"yeah, leave me to play with my roblox in peace. I didn't ask you to call me retarded"

Yep. "MOM, GET OUTTA MY ROOM, I'M PLAYING MINECRAFT!" (triggered sounds)

AAAY! STOP! Why? I don't get it. I always catch you guys playing games over homework. This is disgusting! I'd say that to the triggered.
