Roblox Error Code 524 can appear on your screen for several different reasons. It generally pops up when you are trying to join a VIP server. For commoners and guests to join a VIP server, there is a process they need to go through that we will discuss later in this guide. It could also be possible that perhaps the server is slowing down due to an unknown bug or maybe you are too young to join that server. Some servers on Roblox are age-restricted meaning that you must be of a certain age to join that server and anyone below that age requirement will be banned from joining that server.

One more thing that could happen is that maybe the country you live in is blocked from joining the server. Certain games restrict the use of private servers in some countries. The last and most unfortunate reason could that your Roblox is bugged and would require reinstalling it.By now you must have understood the reasons why the error code 524 pops up when you are trying to join a VIP server. Understanding the cause of an error is the key point to solve an error. So, without further ado let’s learn how to fix this error.

As you have read above, there can be different reasons for the error to occur, and so there are multiple different methods and steps to fix this error.

Ask Someone to Send You an Invite to that Server

Now that you have allowed everyone to send you invites, all you need is someone who can join the VIP server and send you an invite. If you have a friend already there, it would be rather easy because you can ask them. If you do not have a friend, it is still ok; there are ways you can join the VIP. You will need to find a player’s username in that VIP server and request him to invite you.

Step 1: Click the game you want to join. (For example, Adopt me!)
Step 2: Go to the ‘Servers’ tab, and here you will be able to see the names of players on the private server.
Step 3: Send them a request and ask them to invite you
Step 4: Once you get the invitation. Click yes, and you are free to play the game as long as you wish.

If your problem is minor, this should be able to fix your error.

Changing Your Age

Changing your age is a somewhat harder option because you need to know your account pin. If you have not added any pin while making your account, then it would be easy. However, if you have a pin and you have forgotten it, you can do nothing but contact the Roblox support team and wait for their reply. To normally change your age these are the steps

Step 1: Press the setting icon on the top left bar and go to the settings
Step 2: Go to account info and change your birthdate to anything above 13

By using this method, you will definitely be able to join your desired server even if you are below the age of 13.

Waiting For The Bug to Fix Itself

Sometimes, there are problems in the development of a server that causes it to show random errors. When this happens, you must wait for some time to let the bug fix itself. After waiting, you can try joining again and it should work

Creating Your Own Private Server to Avoid Error Code 524

If nothing else works, why not make your own private server? You will need approx. 150 Robux to create a new server. Do not have enough Robux? Well, no worries there is a trick to open a new server without Robux. This does not work all the time and can take several tries before finally creating a private server. However, it is not impossible so we can always try it.

Step 1: Select the game that you are trying to join.
Step 2: Invite 5 or more friends to your party.
Step 3: Join the game and as soon as you join the game, make sure to leave the party at the same time.
Step 4: Keep repeating the steps above until the server is created

Reinstalling Roblox Player
