I honestly don't understand the "No Youtube Link" law.

Roblox wants us to "Give people our profile and tell them the video name." It makes no sense. First off, if you give someone your profile name, it's still going to the SAME site, and the SAME video, yet it leaves more of a chance for people to see bad things. For example, an inappropriate background, profanity in OTHER video titles. It would save everyone waaaay more time to just allow the stupid links. Buuuut, I guess doing everything the illogical way is fine too...

They just have to be safe. It is easier to ban anything that links outside of ROBLOX then allow a group in with the chances of something against the rules getting in.

It prevents videos from being spammed everywhere. There is also the possibility of people directing others to malicious websites via a similar domain name; eg 'YouToob.cx'

I think it actually saves a lot of different things: First of all if you have variety of content the person who visits sees your video and likes it, then he checks the other areas and be like "ooh look at this all other content" then he might subscribe.

good point. Youtube also has some not kidish content.
