Content: The official Roblox Twitter have stated that Roblox is not shutting down anytime soon and there are plenty of updates happening on the platform to show that Roblox isn’t going anywhere. Why are people talking about ROBLOX shutting down? There have been a few different rumours explaining why Roblox might be shutting down - from things like overpopulation and not having money to invest in servers to RIP Roblox comments appearing on the internet in threads. Though individual games might stop getting updates or might be removed by developers, Roblox as a platform isn’t going anywhere. All of this initially started with the website React 2424 - a site that allows individuals to post fake news and pranks, to play tricks on their friends. Someone posted a news post that Roblox was shutting down, and users thought that this was real, instead of scrolling to the bottom and seeing the disclaimer, which states “this is an entertainment website, and the users create the articles. These are jokes and fictional; it should not be taken seriously or as a source of information.” Why do people believe rumours? When it comes to Roblox, the audience is primarily younger children, so it’s easy to understand why they didn’t read to the end of the post or why they would quickly share information without double-checking to make sure it’s real.
