A California court has permanently banned a Roblox player after he was sued by the game’s developer for allegedly harassing staff and making terrorist threats to disrupt official events.
Simon was also accused of cyber-bulling and harassing Roblox employees and executives – including making libellous personal accusations – and of posting fake terrorist threats to discourage players from attending in-person and online events.
The Roblox Corporation has, of course, come in for considerable criticism itself in recent times.
The Roblox Corporation initially launched legal action against Roblox YouTuber and content creator Benjamin Robert Simon, known as Ruben Sim, last November, accusing him of leading a “cybermob” against the platform and using “malice, fraud, and oppression” to commit unlawful acts intended to “injure Roblox and its users”.
