Y'know what, that's a worthy reminder. I can't help my pessimistic reflex (are they actually receptive to learning?), but I do agree that people shouldn't be looked down upon for merely not knowing/having been exposed to something.

Also can't help but think of "the lucky 10,000" idea from xkcd.

can't help but wonder (maybe as my own honest question) how hand-in-glove the phones are as part of the formula, because i don't think kids were able to access Neopets 24/7 in its prime at least

As someone who already hated Roblox for the weird scummy child-predator stuff and had no idea there was a gambling component at all -- yeah, co-sign on the screaming here.
