Well i got a idea to buy ANIMATIONS. As thumbnail, you see how a guy walks. So when you go to your character page. You see a new tab called Animations. All of them are free.

Would be expensive to implement but would be an interesting feature to see.

Would be better than forcing the new animation on us.

Admins will ignore this if it is mostly bumps. To get their attention, many people will have to actually support.

Ask friends to help support and and have their friends support, so on and so on. Basically, spread the word.

"Would be expensive to implement"

Yeeaaaah.... No. It would be like $5 to implement, less probably.

@ Notunknown99, wrong. It takes hours of programming to multiple areas of Roblox. Programs don't write themselves. They have to pay someone to do the work.

Its like 5 extra lines to a script, and a very small extra implementation of the code that loads the character appearance.

Sorry, no new lines. Just modifications of the old ones.

I could give you an example, only I cannot find the newer code.

The hardest part would be adding it to the list of things to load, and modifications to the site. But that will not actually be that expensive, as the features all exist already.

Wrong again. They would have to create a section for the animations to be stored. They would have to create the section where you can go to view or purchase the animation. They would have to test each animation to make sure it does not conflict with other areas or games on Roblox.

Hmm... I forgot about the displaying part. That would be rather hard, although they could easily add it to a testing place (Which would not be that hard to script).

As for the last sentence, they did not do that anyway. And its only animations, it does not mess up your jumping or anything...

You have to keep in mind the variation from one animation to the next. For example, one might only make it so your head faces the direction your screen is facing(which I couldn't imagine would hurt anything) but what about one that affects your legs when walking? The current obbies on Roblox are designed based on the way our legs move right now. If you change that in a way that causes our feet to be placed farther apart, then how would you land between kill bricks that only leave enough safe space for the current animation our legs use?

Animations control the location and movement of our player's body parts. To make them become located in a different spot than before in specific conditions can alter gameplay in a game that was designed to only allow the default locations and movements of body parts.

We are talking about Roblox creating and providing animations. Not the users.

No matter WHAT animations there are, they will break something in some way.

Agreed. But in order to have something, we must create it and fix it when it breaks.

@Notunknown99, the obby creators, the people who play those games, and anyone in the future that joins Roblox that also like obbies. Based on the number of current and future Roblox users, I would guess at least 500 people right now enjoy obbies and expect the number to grow rapidly.

"anyone in the future that joins Roblox that also like obbies"

In the future, obbies will be based around different animations, or not use animations at all.

"expect the number to grow rapidly."

I doubt it, unless the IQ also drops rapidly.
