If I want to buy a shirt, I have to wait 10 days to get it. I'm not gonna pay with money just to get virtual currency. It's not really even helping clothing makers make money. When no one is buying your shirt, except for that like 10% of those BCers, you're not gonna make a lot of money. Roblox is just trying to make money for themselves, forcing us to buy BC or Robux to buy ANYTHING.

Yeah, price floor needs to go away.

Roblox says that people aren't getting rewarded for making clothing. That's bs. That's not their real reason.

They upped the marketplace fee to 30%, making people get less money from sales, then they came up with the price floor, forcing even clothing to be too expensive for NBCers.

They want more money, they aren't rewarding clothes makers.

The best thing as a clothes maker isn't the money, it's seeing people wearing your work.

The marketplace fee needs to be lowered. It's not like there's roblox taxes that go towards anything. If they really wanted to stop high inflation, then take price flooring off. If everyone actually payed that much for clothing, people will get rich in no time.

The fee should at least be like 5% or something. 30% is too high. When you said that roblox said clothes makers weren't getting the money they deserve. 30% marketplace fee is why, not because they're selling them at low prices.

Hey should also change this:

Now it's like 20 tix for 1 Robux
They should change it like how it used to be:
10 tix = 1 Robux

back in my days all you had to do was wait 1-2 days for a shirt or pants, since the majority of the clothes were only about 1-8 tix, some were about 10-30 tix

so support

Why does it concern you of how much BC members make? Take in the idea that they're getting a incredibly generous donation of R$ each day for whatever membership they're currently using. Even if a designer cannot earn/make as many sales as they should due to the Price Floor, he/she still has an alternative method of profit that will eventually keep stacking until they have enough for what they want.

For the NBC on the other hand, they don't have those exclusive benefits. I understand that. However, you still have a daily bonus income of 10tix a day. And I know it's tedious to wait that long just to buy one simple piece of clothing, but would you rather see it from a much harder position?

They could've removed the daily reward and give you nothing. They could've restraint the access of playing ROBLOX for a month, until they told you to buy BC and it were mandatory to do so.

They could've done all this, but they didn't. They have nothing to gain here. Sure they're picking up on everyone's money for themselves, but it's for ROBLOX. And without the money to proceed with the ongoing development of ROBLOX, would there be a difference in having this argument, or even solving it?

@recounted

Exactly. As an example, I used it to describe what it would be like if people couldn't appreciate the things they're given without discussion as to why.

Because what I notice everyone, including myself have done is buy something and say, "Ehh, this is not for me." so they remove it without second-thought. What was the point of purchasing that item if you don't even like it?

@Bv Okay, but I was a past designer for a small time. I was happy with thee money gained don't get me wrong, though the best part was alwas seeing people wear it, it just made my day sometimes because a person admired my work enough to put it on their character.

I make clothes too, or USED to. Although I never really seen too much of a potential in them, people started buying them and I felt really proud of that. (Even though I really NEVER liked them!)

But the point is, the Price Floor has nothing to do with it benefiting ROBLOX. If people keep thinking that ROBLOX is the reason why they can't enjoy their time playing here, then why don't they just revoke everything that was once possible with NBC and give them nothing? And if you think that this has already been done, then why are you still getting Tickets? Why are you still able to play games?

I.. I just don't like people who put the weight on someone else's shoulders whether they did something or not. And it's not the good kind either. Why must you be so repugnant to someone after they have done so many things to help you? Why must you feel responsible for someone else's pain because you helped them? That doesn't make sense.

' then why don't they just revoke everything that was once possible with NBC and give them nothing? And if you think that this has already been done, then why are you still getting Tickets? Why are you still able to play games'

The answer is very simple. They can't. They couldn't. If they could then they would have. But they wouldn't.

'Why must you be so repugnant to someone after they have done so many things to help you?'

They helped us? WE HELPED THEM. [THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY; BC OR NOT]
Im not saying they should worship us and give us everything we wanted. Im saying is that they should give us the justice we deserve

Roblox owes half of their success to the NBC'ers, if not almost all. If NBC'ers were striped of all their benefits [suchs as playing games] then more than half of the Roblox community would be gone.

Do you think that the ads on every NBC'ers browser when they visit Forums, Catalogs, etc were just their to fill the empty space, a design of some sort? Then you're VERY WRONG. PEOPLE PAY FOR THOSE ADS TO BE THERE. And who recieves those payment? Roblox, of course. They earn a certain amount every 'insert number' views. You can see in their blog that they have about 3.5 BILLION VIEWS EVERY MONTH IN THEIR SITE. [Wooah. They must have earned fortunes just because of that.]

Do you see any games on the front page of any categories made by Roblox? I don't think so. Who made those? THE MEMBERS OF THIS COMMUNITY. Sure, without this site, they wouldn't have had any place to post their games. But thats just about it. People stay in Roblox mostly because of the games. THE GAMES THE COMMUNITY MADE.

Now lets go to the Catalog. Whats more significant the hats and gears, or the CLOTHES WE WEAR? OF COURSE ITS THE CLOTHES. Made by who? THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY. Sure, Roblox made a thing or two but do you see any people sporting those? Rarely. Hats, i guess are the only significant thing they make. Because lets face it, ALMOST ALL OF THE GAMES DONT ALLOW GEARS, SO WHATS THE POINT IN BUYING GEARS? Showing off, i guess.

Do you see someone going like 'oh this game/site.ads seems pretty good, let me just rely on what i see and spend the real hard earned money of my parents/myself/etc even though i couldn't actually play it "since they striped the ability for people to playing games without buying BC"? I DONT THINK SO.

We just want justice. Something we could afford without burning a hole in theirs pockets. Sure, they need money to function.

But arent they earning enough on the ads alone? They also have a handful of people willing to pay for some Robux or/and a Membership. THEY DONT HAVE TO FORCE US [ Sure they are not really forcing us literally, but put some sense in your minds. Dont be ignorant. You could clearly see what they are doing. ] TO SPEND MONEY ON THIS SITE. Now, that's just being greedy.

What irritates me the most is how they tell us that they're doing this for us blah blah honor, blah blah profit. Do they really think that were so blind we would not see their real intentions? THEY WANT MONEY. AND THEY WANT MORE.

'Why must you feel responsible for someone else's pain because you helped them? '

The answer is very simple. Because we are not that selfish and self-centered. We care for the Members of this community. Who would stand up for the justice in this place but Us? Even though were all a thousand miles apart, came from different nations, have different mother tongues , etc we are all one community. After all we are the ones playing with each other side by side everyday, not Roblox.

We don't hate Roblox. Some of us, like me, grew up playing Roblox. We have come to love this place, the memories and the friendships created. And it hurts us that sooner or later this place will just become a place purely of business. A place where only those who have the money can truly enjoy. As i have said, ALL WE WANT IS JUSTICE. We're not asking for something they cant give. We're asking for a chance to something we can afford without spending real money [Take note: Most of us are not that rich and/or have credit cards] and at the same time something they dont really need. Were not asking for a miracle. Were just asking for the Prices to be reasonable. Something that was possible in the Past. And possible if allowed today.

Im sorry if my English isn't that great for it is not my Mother Tongue. Im sorry if i offended you in anyway, it was not my intention. My intention was to make you understand why we are saying/doing this. Have a blessed Night to you. And may God bring you the happiness you deserve. :3
