Today I talk about Roblox games and communities that were once great, thriving, and mostly wholesome; that later became toxic or ruined lol. no hate to meep city adopt me or prison life ummmmmmmm
its sad how roblox went from funny roleplay to toxic and weird edit: i commented like 6 mins after the vid got released and this just shows that early comments are more popular than late comments :/ so comment early for this amount of likes 👍
I miss when roblox wasn't so toxic. Noone was afraid of being judged and everyone did their own thing, now everyone tries to fit into these lame stereotypes and end up being toxic and overwhelming lol
Roblox has became less played by kids and instead played by teenagers and even young adults. The increase of hangout maps and so forth gave it a nice spot to fester up. I think roblox has shown glimpses of its former self with innovated and new amazing games but now its became a haven for a way to make a quick buck, harass people and prey on children. The catalog is another major issue, roblox puts all of these truly inappropriate items and "limited" time items at the front of the store. Builders club got removed and replaced with a premium which some like but i personally think its just another way for roblox to get you to buy even more robux with discounted prices. I think overall the landscape has changed and kids now require more attention and also engagement. Why sit on a tycoon game when you can literally run tons of other and if not better games that are more enjoyable and can run on what ever hardware you have. The main reason why i ever started playing roblox was because all i ever had was crappy electronics to run it. LSS: Older Age Group, Roblox Greed, Social Media Attention, and higher demand for more time consuming and some times grindy games.
stop with that excuse. there was a boom in players around 2020. have fucking common sense and realize that 3k players per game "growing up" cannot translate to now 30k players per game all being degenerate.@@amazingboi9388
cap. the people playing are children. they seem far less social even though the people playing back then were also children. i believe the culprit has to do with modern children growing up extremely fast, especially due to tiktok and israel. not entirely roblox's fault. children from a mere 5 years ago are far better than children now. the degeneracy is ramping up, its a slippery slope. plus the clanning community used to be thriving, and its demographics are teenagers. it seems the average 14 year old on roblox has become degenerate and stupid, and there was a flood of 8 year olds that now hold even less intelligence of those past 8 year olds and are are all in brookhaven and simulators etc, containment games. youre telling me that if this version of roblox existed in 2010 with the same accessibility and was as popular as it is now, it would be the same? absolutely not. overall, this game fell off due ESG israeli investors and external factors such as the decreasing state of the world. it isnt just roblox that is suffering this change. everybody notices these changes in every facet of life. watch "the greatest story never told"
@@comlain2513 In no offense but this is poorly typed and hard to read. What does israel and tik tok have to do with anything? A lot of people would argue kids are growing up slower. Kids can now focus more on school and less on working and help supporting the family. Thus giving teens and younger adults more freedom and potential free time.
I miss going back to 2018 when meepcity wasn’t a problem. I used to play it every day for hours, until it was ruined. Once it became bad, I stopped playing it. I would do anything to go back to that time.
I’ll be honest, meepcity was always bad. Even back in 2017 there were parties called, “Have six with gf in bed” or the infamous, “have six and dangle ur nuts on gf” party
It's the fact that I remember these games in their prime all too well before corruption. Meepcity and Adopt me suck now and for many reasons they've forgotten what childhood they created for some individuals
I really miss 2016 - 2018, it's really easy to make friends back in those years, I make friends through roleplaying and chatting with them, but now is not often seeing people roleplaying anymore...
The one thing roblox is missing today is the wholesomeness it used to have. I feel like it was so easy to make friends back then, everybody was so nice and wholesome. And i miss that.
yeah, but on some games and on rare occasions, there's still nice people in the games. like for instance, on pls donate a guy donated me 100 robux cuz he liked my avatar
I remember playing meep city with my siblings before it got toxic. Times have gotten pretty rough as of recently, and it sucks to see my childhood memories turned into this.
I remember when playing prison life I was excited to escape with some other prisoners too, but when I did there wasn't like a "city" to "rob" as I excepted. Just I think an grocery and uninteractable apartment/houses which you couldn't do anything.
I joined back in 2017 and it was so much more fun back then. I used to play Adopt Me, Royale High and Meepcity all the time for the roleplays. I miss when it was mainly a kids platform because even if kids can be annoying sometimes they generally aren't that bad, unlike young adults and teenagers who feel like they need to start a fight over every small thing.
@@gtvn2775meepcity was a good game until 2017 when parties were introduced which attracted online daters a lot and then little rats I mean online daters started dressing really inappropriately and found out how to wear bypassed clothes
crazy thing is, roblox always had that dark side to it, but now its more mainstream. and the sad thing is its most likely because the people they see in games act like they are so badass or their life environment influenced them. its upsetting to see as somebody who joined in 2016, where everything was friendly and colorful, just to see it all go down the drain 7 years later to be hateful, inappropriate and dark. (not saying it wasnt that way before, its just that it happens more often than back in 2016)
I feel the same, and I've also played roblox since 2016/2017. (I think I made my first account in like 2015/2016, pretty sure just 2016 though, and before Pokemon Brick Bronze got deleted I made another account and forgot about the previous account(s) until I remembered) I like to talk to other kids and see what their growing brains are imagining, but now that's just kind of... impossible, unless you play lesser-known roleplay games with a good player count in the weekends. I wish the community didn't grow up into toxicity to varying degrees, but that's how online games kind of fall, more or less a beginning of the end for kid-orientated websites. Due to too many teenagers. (and adults to various degrees)
Meeting a toxic player in a regular game back in the day was so rare, and if you did encounter one you could just go to a different server and you’d be fine. Almost all the weird and toxic stuff were kept to Roleplay games and groups, so if you avoided them you would be mostly in the clear. Now you can’t do anything without someone bypassing the chat filter and just letting the demon out.
I miss being able to roleplay in games like this, like I remember playing all these games years ago with my brothers and it was so fun but now these days it’s just money and people will make fun of you for trying to start an rp and call you cringy, it’s just so sad imo
The thing is, it was these kids themselves who were playing normally, doing funny roleplays and not wearing bypassed clothing. As the years passed, they grew up, and most of their heads just went down the drain and decided to make roblox's community a worse ppace than before
Roblox was a wholesome game around when it wasn't entirely known too well. I played it around the 4th grade, about the time the game was very tame and simple, with ambitious creators and unique games all around. However people lost tact with the game, the game begun to Skyline in popularity and people couldn't keep up with the times, soon resorting to making repeats of unoriginal games. Original players from that era either quit or got banned. It happens to everything, nothing ages like wine, we all eventually decay.
I miss the old roblox, when online dating wasn't a thing and when everyone didn't judge from others avatars.. Espesically the old games and the old oof sound.. now old roblox games are dying like, work at a pizza place, royale high, break in. It's hard to see people become toxic:(
it hurts a lot for people to use "toxic" as an appealing trait to have aswell, like i had an abusive toxic bf and they did horrible things to me, like why would u want that
I loved this video! In my opinion in every ROBLOX game I go there's always a toxic people and there always the same not very fun. Its so sad seeing ROBLOX this way during the 2012 the games were so simple and fun. You didn't have worry about toxic people.
I personally think it was always a small precent of players like this (due to personal expirence) and that player base just started growing and sticking out more and more.
I miss the days when you would hop on and see 3-10 guests per server. Tons of bacon heads, free loaded skins. Especially the number 8 guys. Oh those were the days
Living on the edge Fighting crime, spinning webs Swinging from the highest ledge He can leap above our heads (Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah) Villians on the rise And the city's victimized Looking up with no surprise Arriving in the speed of time (Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah) Spectacular, Spectacular Spider-Man Spectacular, Spectacular Spider-Man Spectacular, Spectacular Spider-Man Spectaculaar!!!
Ragdoll engine was probably one of the first games that had this type of change in audience. Around 2019 you would see it being played as intented, a Ragdoll engine, but as months pass you can't enter a single server without seeing cnps, slenders and cheaters :(
In Roblox there has always been toxicity/racism, but since the golden era began (20xx-2016) the community has only increased the levels of toxicity and racism, not only because of the weird people on the platform, but also because of the carelessness that moderators give the platform, roblox is not a safe place. Anyway, I'm getting away from the topic, thanks for reading ❤
Pleaseeeeeee make more admin command videos!!! It’ll make me and my brother soooo happy! We both loved your admin command videos and we hope you bring them back! Thank you!
Mainly, the real reason as to why I think Roblox went toxic is that, as more and more people found out about the game, they've most likely seen it from people who were already toxic to new comers, and they invited their friends to do it as well, and, well, most likely started developing new ways to do it more rude and painfully. Also considering how people who make things are extremely more advanced, and have figured out how to do advanced stuff- eh whatever, you get my point, it's mainly CZcams that ruined Roblox.
Had a friend on roblox that was quite a bit toxic. She wasn't to me, mostly because I met her through roleplay, but I've seen random people gang up on a kid playing Brookhaven just for misspelling stuff. I also met a friend that.. let's just say.. was/is into undertale aus and had a thing for... tentacles.. I'm pretty sure. I'm glad to just have rediscovered minecraft singleplayer (and modding), Zen Koi 2 (I've always played that game as a kid on the phone and I still love it) and some other games, and decided to try my hand at writing, because I don't like socialization on online platforms that much anymore. Yes, to varying degrees, I still play Roblox, but I often look for games with VIP servers so I don't have to talk to anybody. Anyways, I guess have a good day/night.
I really miss when everyone had their avatars really simple and not so- "emo" or "horny"... Just a cereal box body with colored limbs, and maybe a hat or a scarf to go with it.
I think I played Roblox back in 2019 but my internet was so bad people were saying I was hacking and Roblox was just unplayable for me. What sweet timing I come back to Roblox now and see what has happened
I used to watch her videos all the time but one glance at her channel now and I see like 50 horror games and she became a Vtuber 😵💫 I still remember her first roblox video
You guys are right, though it was mainly the playerbase that had the choice to bypass roblox terms or to play normally. So the fault was the creator's and the players.
@@colpenguin8221 agreed , the reason why he didnt do anything about the bad things was probably because of how greedy he was or just didnt care about it
I do wish the parties came back, it was nice finding communities with the same interests! Without it it’s hard to find anyone is the same interests and it gets boring fast. I really do miss it lol
Man, watching his old Albertsstuff Meep City videos really bring back the nostalgia. Everything was so fun and random, people were just doing their things. I guess it fits into the phrase "you don't understand how good you have it until it's gone."
Fun fact daycare centre used to be popular and had z kind community but then people left it bc it stopped updating so people left it and tye games players become toxic and did weird things i miss 2018😢...
I remember back in 2016 when online daters were mainly constrained to Roblox High School and 5 Star Hotel. Mostly roleplay games had this issue, but in games like Town Of Robloxia, it was less romance focused and more “Family roleplay where you just so HAPPENED to have both a mother and father who didn’t act like a couple at all. Just coparents who slept in the same room bc that’s all the kids who played that game knew couples did.”. Roblox High School had the high school romances and a LOT of sick twisted individuals… and 5 Star hotel was filled to the brim with NSFW roleplays. I noticed the mainstream change around 2017 when Robloxian High School came out and that dorm game became popular. A lot of MeepCity parties also had this issue, same with Tremity’s adopt and raise a cute baby and all the online dating based clones that brought with it, which I actually learned about FROM ALBERTSSTUFF. A lot of Japanese high school games came out and those were the romance roleplay HUBS. Royale high didn’t really have romance until like 2019. Around like 2020 the whole cnp slender online dating thing became a big problem with Roblox cracking down on the underground “Female shading” market which had been up since like 2015 but was mainly very popular with the Roblox High School crowd. By like 2019 online daters were in EVERY ROLEPLAY GAME or just game in general with the rise of games like Da Hood.
I remember first hesring of roblox. I only saw the app icon and asked my dad if i could go on it and he said yes and i started playing retail tycoon (it was around 2017-2018 i don't remember when) and it was so wholesome, you could literally make a lot of friends
3:55 I beg to differ. Adopt me was always a traumatic game. I remember being ten years old when my child said “I’m hungry” and then refused whatever innocent role play food I would give and said “mommy milky” and I left the game.
@@Zionist654 Yes,people trying to bypassed swearing and people being racist and making fun of asians and black people, and bypassed audios, especially in 2017 there is a lot of bypassed audios, and people being toxic if you loss in a sword fight, people taking it way to far in rap battles in roblox. And one of the devs stole a game in that early days, exploits and etc
@@Zionist654 and don't forget the club games that has oders and toxic devs, and role-play cafe games that has toxic admins in it that thinks they can control everyone, and games like iron cafe
i think most of the toxicity was because of most players developing a new sense of style and changing their personality to be horrid so like now they think "oh, well because i have more style i need to change my personality to match it." the old avatars were either fun and colorful or black and white gradients so they had a lifeoftheparty-donttouchmytail dynamic. the new avatars have a more wide variety, but theyre often in muted colors unless the style requires otherwise. muted graphic shirts, muted denim, scarring, hair ugc instead of the old hair extensions on shirts, etc. the matching personality becomes "ohs im so emo dont talk to me unless ur hot" (this is not supposed to offend anyone lmao)
1:56 another game that might end up like Meepcity is Bear Alpha. At first, the only problems in Bear Alpha were exploiters and scam bots, but now it’s not rare to find one or two six-year olds who think it’s cool to bypass the chat filter.
a lot of old players are just growing up and going through different phases throughout their lives. i wouldn't say that's necessarily a bad thing but it's something to take account of. kids see trends, want to fit in and grow up, it's a cycle really, so i don't blame *some* of the things these players are doing
I really really miss it like i loved it the way old way was and people were way nicer and stuff like i dont if it would be possible but i hooe ppl can be more nicer or just very chill about everything i missed 2010's 2015's how ppl were
6:50 the creater actually went to college I think? he updated the description at some point after college. I don't remember if he said he was gonna continue on the game though.
Yeah he did he also said he was going to focus on his job instead of roblox, might be awihle until next update, really sad i used to play this game back in 2016 😢
for some reason every time I join a game of prison life the server has devolved into the cops just shooting at any prisoner that dares exist at all inside the prison even if they haven't done anything. meanwhile the prisoners are just straight up using autoclickers on their guns to basically have a semi auto
old roblox players used to have a handful of friends that they actually talked and played with, now so many people exceed the 200 friend limit and don't talk to a good 94% of them
I wish I could go back to 2016 and 2017 old roblox, when I had amazing friends that I played with for hours and actually had fun. Role-playing with them, checking out cool buildings, etc. And I was actually happy back then :(
Oh my god same I miss the non toxic people I wish Roblox had a better measurement against them I have been banned 3 times due to toxic people and honestly whenever I go on Roblox for a few days i just feel numb like I hate this platform
When I was little, I genuinely loved Adopt Me so much. I'd sit and play it for hours. I remember when they were talking about first having pets, I got super excited, and then it came out and at first, everything was as before. After a couple weeks, though, I got off the game and haven't went back since.
I literally remember a few weeks before the circus tent in meepcity (as i like to call home of the toxics-) was removed, someone wrote slurs on the walls with telephones-
I think numerous troll youtubers/excessive trolling is what led to people desiring to be rude and terrible to others. The community stained itself, unfortunately.
I mean that’s true but trolls were usually ignored and it’s not even trolling anymore it’s just people being a keyboard warrior, trolling was just doing stupid stuff or saying stupid stuff on purpose not being rude.
To me it started getting ruined when a whole lot of random people joined in 2020-21 because before that it was people who were very nice and didn't say like anything rude
It’s similar with Royale High. It used to be a cute role play game where you could dress up and now the only thing people do is try to get halos and sell their soul for limited items
@@kaiserofyoutube Albert made a good example here at 6:22. The dev did nothing to prevent the community from ruining the game, leading to it to become a game filled with emos and slanders. That's why it's kind of the devs fault too
@@KonigsBergKingdomthe whole blue yoshi thing was just a bunch of weird fetishes and shit which led to theories like alexnewtron being desensitized to the content on meepcity
Pretty much any roleplay games are now toxic and filled with people who are trying to be cool, fit in, and start arguments rather than actually roleplaying. Some examples of this apart from what was in the video would be like robloxian high school 2 or royale high. Also with the craze of teenagers wanting to dress so badly as whats trending such as slenders or flat out just pretending to be a person of color so they can get away with using racial slurs... like wtf. Most of the time the ethnic groups they are portraying, are played in a very stereotypical way and can be quite harmful to those communities. Honestly i just hope the next generation of pure kids dont grow up to be like this because its blatantly toxic and a horrible environment to be in compared to what it used to be like in roblox. R.I.P old roblox btw :(
It's honestly sad how it developed. I remember when me and my friends would host cosplay parties and would get a ton of people. All we did was cosplay and socialize, yet it was so fun.
i havent watched albert for about 2 years now and I'm glad he's still kicking it with youtube to be honest roblox has gone down hill and its nice to see he's still able to make content on it
Man, MeepCity was one of the first games I got obsessed with when I joined Roblox. I would go there and and do wholesome little skits with friends. I spent my first robux on this game to buy a big mansion house. It really breaks my heart to see what it’s become. RIP the wholesome days of MeepCity, you brought 10 year old me so much joy.
i honestly cant even dress up how i want to anymore when i go into certain games its like i have to mask in a certain environment without getting harassed by children
3:43 i remember adopting a child in adopt me and i thought she doesnt have a family so i kidnapped her little did i know her mom was buying in the egg shop and teleported to her-
I had mod admin in a game and used to troll players now it’s full of these weird new avatars shown in the video. I’ve quit that game and not played it in almost a year. Sad

I loved this video! In my opinion in every ROBLOX game I go there's always a toxic people and there always the same not very fun. Its so sad seeing ROBLOX this way during the 2012 the games were so simple and fun. You didn't have worry about toxic people.
I personally think it was always a small precent of players like this (due to personal expirence) and that player base just started growing and sticking out more and more.
I miss the days when you would hop on and see 3-10 guests per server. Tons of bacon heads, free loaded skins. Especially the number 8 guys. Oh those were the days

I just want to know why they got rid of guests. Playing as a guest was why I made a roblox account in the first place
Truly were.
Ragdoll engine was probably one of the first games that had this type of change in audience. Around 2019 you would see it being played as intented, a Ragdoll engine, but as months pass you can't enter a single server without seeing cnps, slenders and cheaters :(
Especially exploits
Roblox has only gotten more toxic cause it has grown. It has always been toxic.
This is a trip down memory lane but it's a weed growing in the community as you watch this video
In Roblox there has always been toxicity/racism, but since the golden era began (20xx-2016) the community has only increased the levels of toxicity and racism, not only because of the weird people on the platform, but also because of the carelessness that moderators give the platform, roblox is not a safe place. Anyway, I'm getting away from the topic, thanks for reading ❤

These scammers are sad in a way that they are leaving after scamming like that’s so childish
Mainly, the real reason as to why I think Roblox went toxic is that, as more and more people found out about the game, they've most likely seen it from people who were already toxic to new comers, and they invited their friends to do it as well, and, well, most likely started developing new ways to do it more rude and painfully. Also considering how people who make things are extremely more advanced, and have figured out how to do advanced stuff- eh whatever, you get my point, it's mainly CZcams that ruined Roblox.
And tik tok as well
wish roblox wasnt so mainstream nowadays, but it wouldve been mainstream nevertheless, covid just sped it up
Had a friend on roblox that was quite a bit toxic. She wasn't to me, mostly because I met her through roleplay, but I've seen random people gang up on a kid playing Brookhaven just for misspelling stuff. I also met a friend that.. let's just say.. was/is into undertale aus and had a thing for... tentacles.. I'm pretty sure. I'm glad to just have rediscovered minecraft singleplayer (and modding), Zen Koi 2 (I've always played that game as a kid on the phone and I still love it) and some other games, and decided to try my hand at writing, because I don't like socialization on online platforms that much anymore.
Yes, to varying degrees, I still play Roblox, but I often look for games with VIP servers so I don't have to talk to anybody. Anyways, I guess have a good day/night.

The problem isnt the game, it's the players who chose to be insane and problematic.
your right but, with meep city, the creator also had issue with ignoring the problem
@@Justaperson_XD along with the creator doing bad stuff , along with him not doing anything with the players bypassing things in the game
You guys are right, though it was mainly the playerbase that had the choice to bypass roblox terms or to play normally. So the fault was the creator's and the players.
@@kars__ he was a pretty bad person
@@colpenguin8221 agreed , the reason why he didnt do anything about the bad things was probably because of how greedy he was or just didnt care about it

"He didn't mow his grass so the weed grew." that's actually a really good quote from Flamingo.
I remember back in 2016 when online daters were mainly constrained to Roblox High School and 5 Star Hotel. Mostly roleplay games had this issue, but in games like Town Of Robloxia, it was less romance focused and more “Family roleplay where you just so HAPPENED to have both a mother and father who didn’t act like a couple at all. Just coparents who slept in the same room bc that’s all the kids who played that game knew couples did.”. Roblox High School had the high school romances and a LOT of sick twisted individuals… and 5 Star hotel was filled to the brim with NSFW roleplays. I noticed the mainstream change around 2017 when Robloxian High School came out and that dorm game became popular. A lot of MeepCity parties also had this issue, same with Tremity’s adopt and raise a cute baby and all the online dating based clones that brought with it, which I actually learned about FROM ALBERTSSTUFF. A lot of Japanese high school games came out and those were the romance roleplay HUBS. Royale high didn’t really have romance until like 2019. Around like 2020 the whole cnp slender online dating thing became a big problem with Roblox cracking down on the underground “Female shading” market which had been up since like 2015 but was mainly very popular with the Roblox High School crowd. By like 2019 online daters were in EVERY ROLEPLAY GAME or just game in general with the rise of games like Da Hood.

I remember first hesring of roblox. I only saw the app icon and asked my dad if i could go on it and he said yes and i started playing retail tycoon (it was around 2017-2018 i don't remember when) and it was so wholesome, you could literally make a lot of friends
Let’s all appreciate how respectful Albert is and not wanting people to be harassed! :)
The reason why roblox went down like this is tik tok trends,YT trends and a lot of things that influenced people.
I wish tik tok didn’t exist, it practically brainwashes little kids on roblox
1:49 ah yes, their... belly buttons...
We all miss these days 😢, so many people act so weird, like if you hi at least some people don’t even respond back, depending if they have chat or not
3:55 I beg to differ. Adopt me was always a traumatic game. I remember being ten years old when my child said “I’m hungry” and then refused whatever innocent role play food I would give and said “mommy milky” and I left the game.
It’s so sad seeing these nice games lose their wholesomeness and become a really toxic place

Old Roblox is just a burning memory. 1:03
Fr…
Also nice pfp from stage 5
i think most of the toxicity was because of most players developing a new sense of style and changing their personality to be horrid so like now they think "oh, well because i have more style i need to change my personality to match it."
the old avatars were either fun and colorful or black and white gradients so they had a lifeoftheparty-donttouchmytail dynamic. the new avatars have a more wide variety, but theyre often in muted colors unless the style requires otherwise. muted graphic shirts, muted denim, scarring, hair ugc instead of the old hair extensions on shirts, etc. the matching personality becomes "ohs im so emo dont talk to me unless ur hot"
(this is not supposed to offend anyone lmao)
I used to steal peoples outfits in party’s,make friends,yell at people for no reason,etc! Now i can’t even do these things
1:56 another game that might end up like Meepcity is Bear Alpha. At first, the only problems in Bear Alpha were exploiters and scam bots, but now it’s not rare to find one or two six-year olds who think it’s cool to bypass the chat filter.

Hello verifed user
You are getting more out of this then just roblox content
I think numerous troll youtubers/excessive trolling is what led to people desiring to be rude and terrible to others. The community stained itself, unfortunately.
Atleast some roblox games have good communities but there are not many.
@@procksstuff I wanna count royal high for some reason
@@MuffinswithteaI mean yeah aside from the whole overpricing and constant inflation for different accessories.
I mean that’s true but trolls were usually ignored and it’s not even trolling anymore it’s just people being a keyboard warrior, trolling was just doing stupid stuff or saying stupid stuff on purpose not being rude.
@@Lucinda_Dreemurr yeah that's why I feel a little weird wanting to include it, maybe its because I've been playing since October 2018

It’s similar with Royale High. It used to be a cute role play game where you could dress up and now the only thing people do is try to get halos and sell their soul for limited items
I remember sometimes chatting to people and made some friends, now I'm afraid of someone coming up to my face and calling me a slur

how is it the devs fault

Pretty much any roleplay games are now toxic and filled with people who are trying to be cool, fit in, and start arguments rather than actually roleplaying. Some examples of this apart from what was in the video would be like robloxian high school 2 or royale high. Also with the craze of teenagers wanting to dress so badly as whats trending such as slenders or flat out just pretending to be a person of color so they can get away with using racial slurs... like wtf. Most of the time the ethnic groups they are portraying, are played in a very stereotypical way and can be quite harmful to those communities. Honestly i just hope the next generation of pure kids dont grow up to be like this because its blatantly toxic and a horrible environment to be in compared to what it used to be like in roblox. R.I.P old roblox btw :(
It's honestly sad how it developed. I remember when me and my friends would host cosplay parties and would get a ton of people. All we did was cosplay and socialize, yet it was so fun.
i havent watched albert for about 2 years now and I'm glad he's still kicking it with youtube to be honest roblox has gone down hill and its nice to see he's still able to make content on it
