Yes, Roblox was banned in UAE
The United Arab Emirates, sometimes simply called the Emirates, is a country in Western Asia at the southeast end of the Arabian Peninsula on the Persian Gulf, bordering Oman to the east and Saudi Arabia to the south and west, as well as sharing maritime borders with Qatar to the west …
the answer is Roblox will not be unbanned in UAE until the government changes its decision. However, you can still play Roblox in the UAE by using a VPN, it will basically change your IP address to a country where Roblox is still available and switch your game server to the same country.
Unfortunately, Discord is banned in the UAE. The country’s largest internet service providers, Du and Etisalat block Discord. What Is the Best VPN for Discord?
While UAE Attorneys have said that using a VPN is technically not illegal, the use of it to access content that is deemed not allowed in the UAE (In this case, Roblox) is definitely illegal, and punishable by huge fines. Why is Roblox banned in the UAE?
Qnet has operations in more than 30 countries with offices in Indonesia, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Philippines, UAE, Thailand, Taiwan, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia and Egypt with franchise companies in India, Singapore and Turkey. In 2017, network marketing was banned in Saudi Arabia after complaints about companies like QNet.
On the 18th of May 2018, it was put into action that many websites were blocked within the UAE in order to "protect children" from the contents within. Although this is perhaps logical within certain games and circumstances, many games had been blocked without an actual purpose, leaving many people who enjoy these games - myself included - unable to gain any access towards these games,and therefore lose not only progress but creations, friendships and invested time and money into the game.
This led to the UAE's attorney general to reinstate and ban ROBLOX, causing a catastrophic toll on the country's gaming community, still reeling from the blow.
Likewise, ROBLOX is also very kid friendly, with even guided parental control that can be set alongside the settings, whilst the addition of account protection to both <13 and above to have various options on the account;- such to be as disabling chat features, messaging, and following in game prohibition. Nonetheless to this, take note that most games are designed to be family friendly, and suitably soothing and appealing to children and kids,and sometimes even parents joining in to play the game.
The game does not encourage gambling, reversed to the point that they actually outlawed gambling/vices into the game, because ROBLOX inherently cares about its users and community, and in under no circumstance has there been a chance of suicide, nor has anything related to suicide,murder or any real life vice has been commited after playing the game, assuringly.
Although with the recent claims on ROBLOX "forming the youth to destroy society" , the game is heavily regulated with several rules and strict secure monitoring systems that can moderate the chatting systems ingame to website chat/games itself, with very strong and stern punishments to offenders and rule-breakers, with a report system that ensures the person to be almost instantly penalized for the action.
However, this wasn't the case for UAE's authorities, claiming that the game was potentially harmful to youth.
As speaking of behalf of the entire ROBLOX community of the UAE, we whole heartedly know that ROBLOX is not a road block, but a block further to power imagination.
