Yes, yes, I understand. ROBLOX, for the most part, actually DOES listen. They added outline toggling, they added dynamic lighting shadows, reduced the price floor. I get all of that. But even if you don't like the fact that we complain, it's never going to go away, just like these updates. But we can try. So get with it.
I don't want to drift too far off topic. ROBLOX, like I said above, does listen, but only for the most part. There are still quite a few players unaccounted for in "for the most part" when there's millions of active players every day.
And by "unaccounted for" (pardon my major use of quotations) I mean all of the amazingly talented builders and scripters that were able to put together an amazing library full of extremely enhanced scripts.
Many script builder scripts, like dominus and paintgui (two of the most popular, I might add) have been broken because of these new updates ROBLOX has put on us, MAINLY the new animations (Dominus scythe scripts' animations were broke by the new HumanoidRootPart.) And now, these as stated above extremely talented builders and scripters who put these things together are going to have to try to find loopholes around this new rootpart in order to allow users to once again enjoy these scripts.
Not to mention the chat bar people have been raving about since it first came out. Originally it wasn't so bad for most because we reverted our system dates, got the old chat bar back, and continued on to script. But then, ROBLOX made it so anyone with a reverted system date (As far as I have the knowledge to comprehend) was crashed instantly when they joined ANY game. I too was affected by this, getting a "This Game Has Shut Down" message instantly when joining a game.
Once again drifting a bit too far off topic, I want those to know who have read up to this point that I, too, have read this considerably "Holy Bible" to the mini-mods on S&I called the WNTS (What Not Too Suggest) which CLEARLY states that you cannot suggest the removal of a very large update (such as the new chat bar and the new animations).
So, in the most formal matter possible, I propose a request to the ROBLOX team to add the following new features to the game, as they are not removal requests but they are editing requests that satisfy the needs of the majority of the ROBLOX community without upsetting the minority of the other side. Hopefully the admins and developers will see this post and take into consideration the points I've made in this thread.
And, for those who have made it all the way to this point in my semi-wall-of-words post, the ideas are below.
-Make the new animations toggle-able. Two choices for the ROBLOX team to make: Either player-wise or game-wise. Game-wise would suggest a developer can toggle the animations using ROBLOX studio, and you would either have the old animations or the new ones. Player-wise would therefore, as you might think, make it so a player can decide which animations they'd like themselves to see in-game: the old ones, or the new ones.
-Create a feature that game developers can toggle on and off called "Script Builder Mode". This would add a GUI in the corner of the screen that, when clicked on, would become a GUI over the entire screen. A player could then paste in the script they wanted to use, and it would take effect. This is useful to game developers as it is an optional feature and would therefore allow less exploiting while still allowing users to script in-game.
In my opinion, these solutions should solve the issues of many players throughout the ROBLOX community. I would have said something about the price floor, but that is a major update and quite frankly I would NOT like to start conversation on that.
Well there you go! Congratulations to those who made it all the way through this gigantic post, though I'm sure there's been larger. Oh well. I'd give you a badge, if I could, but there's no badges on forums. Too bad.
Thanks again for reading, ~Blox
tl;dr: Allow toggleable animations and add a script builder GUI as an option for game developers. |

| Support. And I see why you said on my forum that this really was a TL;DR. But I read it all and support :D |

I want to be able to toggle my animations. The animations are obnoxious, your character can not stay still... |

| And the jumping motion is just wrong too. |

Bump.
Glad I found a thread that solves most peoples' issues. I'm open to modification on this if anyone opposes, or has any new ideas. |

I HATE the jump. It looks wrong, and it performs wrong. It messes up jumping. Without the animations, you were able to walk into a wall and keep walking, and you'd still have the same jump height. With them, if you walk into a wall and jump, you get about half height because your character thrusts their crotch into the wall and stops the jump... |

@Zek
I sound really teacher-y right now but try to keep it appropriate, this site WAS made for kids after all |

| I'll keep bumping this every so often so we attract as much of the S&I population as possible. |

Lol support.
But I don't think Roblox is listening... They still haven't replied to my growing thread on a better way to Delete Friends without fusteration. Nor do I think they read it, its obviously a top thread..

Support both ideas ESPECIALLY the animation one. My explanation is with Zekrom's.
