I'm really sick of this. There's so many faults in ROBLOX. None of them are dealt with. Every update seems to do nothing but make ROBLOX richer, they barely ever do anything for us. The point of all the servers is plain invalid, they were surviving on less earlier, were they not? I'm going to explain some issues which aren't just mine, but a lot of people have stood up against them.

1. The issue of the ticket's value.
From '09ers, I hear the rate used to be 3.5. I don't know how the inflation happened, but had I gone back in time and told them the rate was gonna go up to 10, they wouldn't of believed me. 17? They would of thought I had gone completely insane. Yet here we are and ROBLOX isn't doing anything to stop it, only to encourage it. I don't know whose fault the first inflation to 10 was. But I saw this jump to 17 through my own eyes and know exactly what caused it.

I'm pretty sure all of you know this-but recently, the ad system was updated. You can now buy impressions with both Robux AND tickets. At first, this may of seemed OK. However, looking at the rates, we know it wasn't. The update caused nobody to need tickets over Robux meaning nobody was market ordering Robux to Tickets because there was no need, they could just use their Robux. However, people with Tickets were trading to Robux because they wanted things like hats which Tickets can't really buy any more. More demand on one currency in ROBLOX's case = inflation on the other. Because NBCs daily Tix are worth even less now, ROBLOX is forcing them to buy BC or look like a noob forever.


2. BC greed.
OK, this is a highly debated topic. I hear BC started as just a few more places, shirts and pants and a bit of Robux. That's it. But although I haven't seen the transition, now NBC gets so little. Builder's Club is no longer just for a little help toward becoming rich. It's the only way now they've made trading, gamepasses, badges, personal servers and much more BC only.

3. The Developer's Exchange.
At first, this seems like a kind move. But it's clearly all for the money instead of actually lending the people who built what we know as ROBLOX. A software developer in the UK apparently earns £32256 Converting that to $, for ROBLOX to compete they would have to pay that developer $52725 AT LEAST. With the terrible DevEx rate, they would have to earn 1000 R$ for every dollar. That would mean they would need to earn *Takes deep breath*
Fifty two million seven hundred and twenty five thousand Robux annually. 52,725,000. I doubt even TG101 makes that much.
This was only implemented to get Robux out of circulation so people would buy more and was done purely for profit, not for the developers.


I doubt any changes will come about, but this is where ROBLOX decides. Do they push all the NBC into quitting and drive away all new players leaving no room for expansion, or treat us fairly and wait for us to buy BC rather than trying to force us?

I support this COMPLETELY. ######## greed needs to stop soon or many players will quit.

1. ###### should get at least 100 TIX a day and more hats should be worth TIX.

2. ###### should be able to trade, make game passes, badges, and personal servers.

3. The ########### exchange should be more fair. 1,000 ROBUX should be enough to be equivalent to a dollar.

@Nick, thanks for the support, but I think raising the login bonus wouldn't be the answer. They need to make more hats for Tix and revert the advertisment update IMO.

Oops, error in the script. Swap the line of code before else, and after else, and then you get the opinion.

1. Good.


2. You're lucky this game is even free, many games you need to buy and many more free versions of games, such as Minecraft, are limited a LOT more then nbcers are on ROBLOX.

3.
>Complains about ROBLOX being greedy
>Then complains about ROBLOX giving money to people for advertising the website

lmao

Please stop complaining and realize you can do a LOT for free compared to what you can on majority of other games.

If you really want BC, just buy it. It's 5 dollars.

NBC: Can play the game.

BC: Can buy & afford a wider variety of hats, can develop more games

I'm tempting you with my PhD.

Doctor, alright so being able to play on all servers, finish the game, having all features on Minecraft is equevelent to an NBC on roblox? Um, no...If Minecraft had this BC feature thing, NBC would be able to punch a tree and make wood tools and that's it.

Know how you get people to buy BC?

You make it a small donation that gets you a couple cool thing, not 50 perks that basically makes it mandatory to purchase it, some people are poor, and others want to be on Roblox to role-play (most of the population, sadly), which is impossible now for NBCers (if they want to look the part). Price floor has ruined Roblox and made the ratio of robux to tix 1:18.


NBCers used to complain about not being able to buy hats, well guess what! Now you can't buy anything until you purchase BC!! YAY!! have fun in groups loljk u cant affor anything lawlawl.

who wants hats? too bad aint no body got time 4 dat lol, u cant buy it anyway cuz u nbc noob buy bc plox we need money that we nevr neded b4

The inflation is ridiculous, a while back 100 ROBUX was a big deal. Now it's practically nothing. They used to make hats to be sold for tickets, but now it's the rarest thing you can ever see here, and they took all of the attention they had, and if not all, then a very large amount of attention, off of the NBC'ers and gave it all to the BC'ers. Bascially they used to care for the community equally, but now it's as if they discriminate the NBC'ers. I can say all this with experience.
