Recently, Roblox has taken moderation action against the YouTuber Schlep, and previously, they have taken both legal and moderation action against another YouTuber, Ruben Sim. Both of these people are mentioned in the article. Both of the situations surrounding these people are ongoing, and the action taken was more nuanced than just "taking vigilantes down because we want to protect them and our reputation." Both of these people violated Roblox's policy and action was taken against them accordingly, and it's very dismissive of nuance to say that Roblox was defending child predators by not making exceptions. Making exceptions was a struggle faced by Ruben Sim, too, as his vigilante moderation system continued operation despite closing their appeals system. It is important also, to mention that Schlep has associated himself with Ruben, collaborating with him on videos dating up to a year ago. | Recently, Roblox has taken moderation action against the YouTuber Schlep, and previously, they have taken both legal and moderation action against another YouTuber, Ruben Sim.

'''Obviously, this doesn't detract from the fact that Roblox has a poorly managed moderation system. They mostly rely on automated checks to detect mature content in games. This is one of their ''many'' shortcomings.''' | '''Obviously, this doesn't detract from the fact that Roblox has a poorly managed moderation system.
