Let's see, they have to pay to host their website, they have to pay to host several servers, they have to pay to keep the copyright and other stuff.
You can't afford this unless you have a steady income from another job, and if they were to get another job they wouldn't have enough time to moderate.

It's supposed to be child-friendly, deal with it. It's still possible to have fun in it, it's just that you don't need swearing and obscene images to have fun all the time.
Also, the community doesn't make the game, and the worst of the community is in the forums; the same forums you shouldn't browse more than playing the actual game (*ahem*).

Exactly. It has superb physics, a great engine, nice effects and it's open-ended gameplay adds to the entertainment value.
ROBLOX is only fun if you're not looking for a fight.

Well obviously it's supposed to be, or I wouldn't have said anything.
Thing is, they do it to a point where it's more than just making it so parents will agree to let kids play.
No, one time, I posted an article about a suggestion for a shirt, I made a typo and forgot the 'r', and even though it was clearly supposed to be "shirt" based on the context, I got banned for two weeks. Rediclious. This also breeds a bad community, which I, personally, believe is a part of the game expirence.

They banned for a typo, which clearly was not a swear in context.
The entire idea of "swearing" and being "against" it is absurd anyway.
