Hello.

A while ago in a ROBLOX blog post in User Feedback, they were talking about making it possible to sell models. The main problem was that if they did so, people would buy them and re-sell them, which is an obvious reason why not to do it.

Would the way around this not just be to tag every new created model with an un-removable / hidden ID, so if it gets re-uploaded, it checks to see if that ID already exists then removes it or prevents them uploading?

Ideas on this? - Thanks. =)

It could be a great idea, or it could be a terrible idea... not sure, could go both ways depending on how its used.

Non-support. Everyone would begin to do this, for chunks of Robux.
If you've read the blog about Asimo, he learnt how to build by getting models, and editing them, now he builds from scratch, I do this too, I can just build a sword, I like to pick out the pieces I don't like and make something else, I'm slightly known for making Assassin's Creed models, but they weren't from scratch, I made them from a model which I made a whole lot different from the original creator(I'm not sure though who the original creator was). If I did it, and if he does it, imagine the amount of others who do it, it may be a minority but still, atleast we try to adapt from the models, not like others who take, and not give credit.

I'm a copying noob? Please look at my games and the hats I own xD. I'm talking about new players, They use free models, and they need to be able to build games as that is the foundation of Roblox.

Lots of mixed opinions, which all have valid points.

Of course, if they were to do this, this would definitely be something they needed to test with members on the TestSite. If it works after a few weeks, add it in on a testing condition. If it then doesn't work and there are exploitation problems, it's always removable.

Hmm, you said everyone would want to sell their model. Start by making it a BC feature, obviously.

It could be something only groups can do. That would help limit the amount of people selling 'bad' or 'pointless' models.

How will new users be able to build? Especially if they are NBC and don't have a lot of money. They don't know how to build. And all the free model makers will all try to make a quick buck so don't say well not all.

Exactly what Blink said.
And not just that.
One of the greatest ways to learn scripting, (you don't have to be a new user, old users don't even know hot to) is to take other scripts and read them, learn them.
And then add something to it to make it different.

If they're all money, it would just take it away.
And then something BC only would come in to mess it up.
