How to change your roblox age under 13

Isabella Hamlett started this petition to David Baszucki

So I am 14 (2004) i have had roblox since early 2017. I put my birth year as 2018. Now its super hard to say things without safe chat. I have emailed roblox about this and all they could do was send me an article of how to change your birthday if you were 13+. They still have not contacted me of how I could fix it since I accidentally put my birth year to 2018. It monitors out everything like numbers so I cant say "ill be there in one minute" or "ill be there in one sec". Its super hard for me do say the simplest sentences. Now people with their age 13 or higher can say the simple sentences without it being covered in hashtags (#). If there was a way we could email roblox saying our age it would be very easy. Roblox already hides bad words or inappropriate phrases or words. I dont think a 2 year old would be playing roblox. when i'm playing jailbreak sometimes it wont let me say "bank" so people could rob with me. Even though there are bad people on the app doesn't mean we should be stopped from saying numbers or harmless sentences that are nice and appropriate. If it doesn't happen then I would have to wait 11 years for it to have me as 13+ but I would be 24-25 and I probably wont be playing roblox anymore. If this was changed i'd have a way better time on the app. If its not gonna go through ill be upset because I have put so much money into this app and if its not gonna work i'd want a full refund. I enjoy the game so much but its very awful trying to type a easy sentence. Please share this with as many people as you can.Roblox please make it where I can change my age.

Roblox does not allow changing of your age while under 13.

However, it is possible that contacting support can change your age.

Roblox support, when contacted with simple note, will not change your age and point to the laws that they have to follow.

However, if you over 13, and you set your birthdate to an under 13 age, it is possible that when contacted with proof of age, the team will be confident that you are not faking it.

Therefore, if you are over 13, you may want to consider fishing up your birth certificate or driver's licence to send to the support team. With such proof of age, I don't see any reason why they can think you're faking it.

If they then play the "prove that this ID belongs to you" card, send a video of you holding your ID and waving at the camera.

This of course, all depends on whether you are comfortable sharing a photo ID, and your own face with a support team in San Mateo. It's also a long shot, but it's got enough merit to consider.

How to Change Age on Roblox – Under 13 & 13 or older – All the steps to change the date of your birthday and age restrictions

How to Change Age on Roblox – Under 13

If you’re under 13, or you messed up your birthday and appear to be under 13, you can’t change your age.

Roblox is committed to providing safety and privacy protection for our users. For this reason and because of COPPA regulations, users under the age of 13 can not change their age setting.

On the day of your 13th birthday, Roblox will automatically update its restrictions and you will be able to change your age. So the only solution is to wait until you turn 13. But check the last section (Roblox Age Restrictions), because everything has a solution

How to Change Age on Roblox – 13 or Older

These are the steps to change your age or birthday if you are 13 or older:

  1. Login to your account
  2. Go to account settings
    • Browser – the gear-icon located at the upper-right corner of the site
    • Mobile Apps – the three dots icon for More
  3. Select the Account Info tab
  4. Enter your correct birth date
  5. Select Save

What to do if you made a mistake when entering the date of your birthday but you are older than 13?

If you entered a wrong birthday date but you are over 13, what you should do is contact Roblox support and prove that you are over 13

In the “help category” dropdown select “Chat and age settings”. And in the text space below explain your mistake when you first entered your age.

You can contact Roblox Support > Here

Roblox Age Restrictions

The account controls are optional; kids of any age can create an account on Roblox with no parental restrictions. On accounts of kids under 13, Roblox automatically defaults to stricter settings, but a kid could change these if there’s no parent PIN

If you are under 13 and have parental restrictions, the only thing you can do is ask your parents to disable them. If you’re under 13 and don’t have parental restrictions or just got your parents to disable them, you can lower the restrictions yourself

Other Roblox Guides:

For some reasons, you may need to change your age in Roblox to be under 13 years old. As you know, the players who are under 13 years old will have limitations in using the Roblox chat feature. Even though Roblox does not specify a minimum age of the players, players under 13 will have the privacy settings.

As Roblox commits, they will always provide safety and privacy protection for the users. For this reason and also based on COPPA regulations, Roblox users under 13 years old cannot change their age settings in Roblox. It means that the privacy settings will automatically update to 13 or older on the user’s 13th birthday.

Can You Change Your Age to Be Under 13 in Roblox?

If you try to change your age in Roblox to be under 13, you will get a pop up window that says ‘Changing your birthday to under age 13 cannot be un-done. Are you sure you want to continue?’. It means that you cannot change your age back to 13 or older.

By changing your age under 13 will also enable the Privacy Mode. This mode will not let the users to take chat and edit features as well as forum discussion. Then, after the users get 13 years old or provide parental permission, they can have an option to disable the privacy mode.

Furthermore, the users under 13 years old will not be able to post any of the online chat, read or send personal messages, join the forums, edit any free-text fields or also free chat. If the users want to join forum discussions, they may need to get out of privacy mode into menu chat mode.

The users under 13 years old will be  under the parent protections. In this case, parents will have a right to control, set or also edit their controls to their account anytime. So, if you’re under 13 years old and want to change your birthdate to be older, you can go to your parents.

After you get into menu chat mode, you should be careful with any personal information that you may provide in forum posts and on-site messages. In the case of providing your personal information, it may put you at risk, as any hackers may attempt to steal your personal information.

Why Does Roblox Place Under 13 Users in Privacy Mode?

Roblox commits to always promote the educational benefits of curiosity, building and also designing that are appropriate for anyone who can navigate through a game. However, such an open approach in practice can cause some risks especially to kids under 13 years old.

In fact, Roblox has a number of safety precautions, but it remains a target of people with less than good intentions. Since Roblox offers the potential learning method, Common Sense Media  assesses its worth for Roblox users under 13 years old.

Moreover, Roblox also urges the parents to help their kids protect themselves by turning off the privacy settings. The parents should also teach them how to recognize the methods that are used by online predators to win their kid’s trust and may also exploit them. Furthermore, the parent should also teach them how to report any bad behaviour and block bad users.

How to Turn On Roblox Privacy Mode?

As a parent, you need to enable the privacy mode in Roblox if your kid is under 13 years old. To enable the Roblox privacy mode, you can ask your kid to log into their Roblox account, as only Roblox users can do it.

After logging into a Roblox account, you need to go to Account Settings by clicking the ‘Gear’ icon on the top right of your screen. In the ‘My Settings’ section, you need to click on the ‘Privacy’ option.

Here, you can review the options under Contact Settings and Other Settings. Make sure to choose No One or Friends or enable Account Restrictions for users at the age of 13 and older to have additional options. So, you can try to follow those steps to give your protection to your kid’s account.

How to Change Your Age If You Get 13 or Older?

As we’ve mentioned, when you are under 13, you cannot join forum discussion or chat. If you get 13  or older, you definitely can change your age to be more than 13 years old in order to enable some additional features that are prohibited for the age under 13.

So, here’s how to change your age to be more than 13 years old!

    • First, go to Roblox and login with your account.
