As we all know MeepCity is a game that took ROBLOX by storm when it was first released. Instantly hitting the front page, with it's theme that can interest most children. Although the game has brought a lot of revenue for it's creator-Alexnewtron, and ROBLOX. The game hasn't been so good for older players of the community, non ###### etc. This game brings many new players to ROBLOX, which is good. BUT, a lot of Online Dating occurs in the game, making parents of younger children, whomst monitor their child's interactions fear for child predators. This is bad, painting the image that ROBLOX is filled with these people. Which clearly isn't the case. Secondly, MeepCity can be a potential danger to ROBLOX themselves. It has many copyright infringments, inculuding: Meeps (Rip off on Puffles from Club Penguin), Almost exact Toontown fishing, The party house (more from ToonTown), Exact door animations from ToonTown, and many, MANY more. One of my last arguments is that around the time MeepCity was released was around the time the chat filter was CRITICALLY impacted, and enforced. This game may be responsible as it's bringing in so many younger players, parents are concerned for predator, and other small elements.
Those are all the reasons why I am signing the petition to shut down MeepCity, which with 5,000 supporters will be presented to ROBLOX directly. After reading this I hope you will sign the petition too.
To find it just google "Shut down meepcity petition" It's on change (dot) org.inazation
