I've been on the site for a couple months, and I've bought a couple things based on my daily income.
I would love to buy costumes of any sort just to embrace the spirit, but I just don't have enough virtual currency. All the "gifts" were too expensive, and it is a struggle trying to get virtual currency on this site just starting off.
I've tried TC'ing how people suggest, slow process. I've tried making a game, it's just too difficult and its a long process because I keep getting caught up in technicalities. This site is asking for me to get a membership or to buy virtual currency just so I can participate in the festivities.
And I would like to, but it's not worth it to me yet, because this game hasn't given me much reason to.
This site has as much BS as any site, claiming to be free, but it's really hard to have fun all the time unless you buy ROBUX or a membership at some point in time.
Free to play, pay to have fun. >_>
A lot of the games can be fun, but at the same time, they keep coming up with new excuses for me not to have access to the games for free, whether it's BC only, or Paid Access, or whatever.
I'll be on this site, but only as long as I can play my favorite games for free. Would not recommend ROBLOX to a friend unless they have money to burn.
Sincerely, Ayxpobrlilo Smith |

| Then why don't you buy R$ or do something to earn money instead of complaining? |

What, did you think that TC'ing or making a game would be easy? Since when was being successful easy? Do you honestly think that all these rich people you see with tons of money, virtual items, fame, etc, have done nothing to earn it? No. Of course it was hard for them, but you've no idea what their life journey was about. They are where they're at because they chose not to give up even when things got difficult. |

As in your thread title "Free to play, pay to have fun" It is free to play in ways and paying to have fun!?! My golden days were when I didn't buy BC or robux. And about building a game takes to long Well yea it does you have to be motivated and able to take time off of your day for that process to last and have effect For one people who build games for the virtual currency are greedy a true game must have time put into it as I said above. So please take this into thought. |

TL;DR
All I saw was complaining.
Quit crying, no one cares. |

9nik,
If you didn't even read, how could you say she was "complaining"? No, it's her own opinion, and maybe she just hasn't realized that nothing is easy to get. How about you come back and get re-educated before posting an unintelligent response like that? Show some respect. She wasn't trying to be rude to anyone, she was just trying to express her own opinion. |

ROBLOX was described to be as a free to play, fun building game.
It was not described as a difficult journey to figuring out how crap works.
The people who are known on this site, in most circumstances, have BC. Because it significantly helps them get virtual currency through game passes, paid access, and etc through their games. Along with giving them a daily stipend.
The key to success on this site, as you described, along with what I discovered, is hard work, plus you have to buy a membership.
I don't care about fame, I want to participate in activities such as the costume contest, or buying Halloween gifts, but I may not, because it is simply too much for a regular user to afford when they are starting off.
So I protest either the cost, or the rigorous process of getting enough money when you are just joining ROBLOX and you have nothing. |

bla bla rant rant
It's a website, no one said you HAD to play, thus you do not have to PAY for it. |

To those posting, I would like to re-highlight a certain point I made.
"it's really hard to have fun all the time unless you buy ROBUX or a membership at some point in time."
Meaning you are biased if you bought BC or ROBUX at any time, because at that point you do not fit the category of having fun without ever buying a membership or ROBUX. |

Never bought Robux, never bought BC. I'm *trying* to enjoy Roblox.
Hey, at least they don't make you pay to build games. Now THAT would really suck. |

Ayx,
Well, yes, hard work is required to earn basically everything you want in life. Nothing is free, nothing is easy. Membership is just a bonus. I know some guys who have gotten the items they want without ever buying membership. It's actually a combination of determination, passion, and motivation.
And, you CAN have fun. of course it isn't easy to get what you want as i have stated before, but that's only because you decide to sit there and be lazy instead of actually doing anything to change what you don't like. If you so desire to participate in events that would require little to no effort at all, it would be quite boring. hard work is, well, hard, but it'll be worth it in the end. Mind over matter. |

@Jason
I wouldn't mind to much if there were some well-made tutorials integrated into the studio, helping out new users who have no clue what all the buttons do. Also, maybe actually giving us a couple helpful hints on how to make a game. |
