I know this is probably going to be hated but IT NEEDS TO BE SORTED! I sick of coming onto the games page to find the first 5 games are all pictures of other building games (I don't even have to name which one), I'm not saying that the other games are bad - I don't like them, that's my opinion! I don't mind if someone else plays them! Yet we are on Roblox, so why do we have games like Mineblox and Robocraft? We can just play either games separately, if you wanted to! I'm not saying remove the player - but Off Site Games need to stay of the site! Seriously, it is the same as spamming comments telling people to join other games, it will lose Roblox money. So tell me what you think on this matter, and we can work together to stop this growing problem!

It's honestly not that big of a deal
I doubt someone will quit ROBLOX over a thumbnail
besides it's actually rather fun to see what people can do with said games

@Marble

It's the issentive of advertising a rival game company, it is like Chocolate Bar advertising Sweets on their package - it is losing good business!

Those games are helluve a lot better than most games out there.

"son, this is why many game builders quit roblox"

Good. Get their crap out of here.
Instead of banning offsite thumbnails, hows about falsely advertised places? Those are a lot worse

ROBLOX doesn't have any rivals, are you kidding me?
That's like saying anything that's similar to anything else in a different business automatically makes them rivals. That's stupid. Besides, no one, and I repeat, no one is going to stop playing one game in favor of another, that is also stupid.

So are you saying that if you played a Golden 007 on the Nintendo 64 (a 10 year old game) and go to the shop a see a fancy new Xbox with Call of Duty you won't stop playing the old one for the brand new controls and HD graphics. I'm not saying the other games are better, as I actually don't like the other games - I love Roblox, but Roblox is losing players to the other games because people are advertising them through places and thumbnails.

Look up the definition of rivals, any company competing for the place of being the internet's number 1 game is a rival. Roblox may not advertise them having rivals but they probably do rival the other companies - personally I think Roblox is the best company out their but other company may be hot on their tail to be number 1! :)

Yes that is exactly what I'm saying.
In no circumstance would I give up playing one game forever in favour of another one.

Plus Goldeneye 007 and Call of Duty are barely comparable.

Marble are you trying to act as a troll because if you are please leave, thumbnails are a form of advertising places so please act mature or get of the forums, thank you ;)

Once again Marble, please thoroughly read the post where I made it clear that you would leave a game in favour of another if you see someone you like.

So you've decided what I would do for me

No, you wouldn't. That's like saying if you eat cake but like the taste of pie you would stop eating cake and eat only pie

And I left real life building blocks to come to come to a virtual building paradise - Roblox - so another example of leaving a game for a better one.

@Marble

I can take criticism, but I also don't like people being rude on my threads ;)

Criticism is a few lines of telling me what to improve, trolling is repeadtly spreading hate... I think your trolling mate ;)

Also we're talking about games not food, why would you play the worse game if you got a better one. Who plays Pokémon Ruby if you own X or Y, if your not a Pokémon fan ones in rubbish graphics and ones in 3D. Who play's Call of Duty 3 if you have Ghost? Who plays The Sims 1 if you own The Sims 3? Who plays Animal Crossing Wild World if you are great at Animal Crossing New Leaf? Who plays Metroid if you have Super Metroid? I'm the biggest gaming geek in the world I can go on all day, of course their is exceptions but I'm trying to make a point be decent and accept that their is no argument and your going of topic ;)

Marble - I stated you can play both but some people are exceptions and leave Roblox for other games - for better or for worse! It is just not acceptable for players to advertise rival company's - PLEASE JUST LISTEN!
