It only has about 80 people, whereas many mainstream game companies have hundreds, even into the thousands. It's a small company running a free to play game that has 45 million players. The site receives tons of traffic, and they need tons of money to run the site. They also need money to pay their employees, keep the HQ running, and even pay for a huge of room of servers just for us. And I think most players are NBC, so they need money.

They make plenty of money from builders club and advertising.. This update is not that crucial... They haven't had it before so why add it now.

Yes, they make money from BC, but the money is always needed to run a website this large and a game with that many servers. There needs to be a constant flow of money.

Ok, money is gained from allowing advertisements. Still, do you know how large the servers are? This large.

All this does is ruin the Shirt economy... Are you going to go buy a shirt now that cost 300 tix? I'm not spending my precious robux on something as pointless as a shirt(Comparatively to other items) when I have hats to buy...

Hats are the main source of trading, here. People don't trade shirts or pants. They trade gear and hats.

Ok, maybe this will help you. I am an adult who majored in economics, and advertising. What my forum post says, is 100% fact.

Because what I know is fact, and you probably have not had an economics class yet. Considering the way you're acting seems childish. No offense.

You're the one making baseless claims by saying your word is fact, without providing evidence.

Oh, and also because there are more than 80 comments with those who agree, and know the same things I know.
