| For the past half hour or so, the site has seemed incredibly slow. Does anyone know why? |

| Occasionally I will be redirected to the maintenance page. Perhaps they're performing some type of maintenance? |

"I blame Merely and the LMaDers botting the site."
don't worry, ROBLOX has a really simple captcha system in the catalogue which will cause little annoyance for the people who get the items legitly and stop LMaD's bots which they got off the internet from working.
OH WAIT, merely said no to the idea because he supports botting. |

| Captchas in the catalog is a terrible idea. There's nothing wrong with bots buying items. It happens in the real world too. |

| I don't mind bots in general, I just don't like the idea of every skiddy little LMaDer sicking their bots on the catalog. |

@xsixx
pretty much botting is allowed but it depends on the way you use it. blocking botting will break many extensions such as Seranok's notifier.
im still annoyed how someone released couple of annoying bots to lmad, many lmaders use it now which cause the site to slow down...

Those bots aren't causing the site to slow down to a point that's noticeable. ROBLOX has more than enough power to handle all of the genuine requests that are coming in. (Genuine request as in anything that doesn't have malicious intent)
The website is definitely going slower than usual right now, but I doubt it's because of any catalog bot. |

The problem is not lack of CAPTCHAs in the catalog, or bots. The problem is with the way private sales are set up. If I am willing to pay 500k R$ for Dominus Infernus, and someone decides to sell it for 200k R$, I should be given the option of buying it first for 200k R$ or something.
I really don't know how it should work, so feel free to think about it and reply. |

@Seranok
That's a bad idea. Those types of situations happen in real life too, and you just have to deal with them. It's all part of the game of buying and selling at the right time. |
