I've been on the better part of ROBLOX since 2010. Although it may of not been the best times, it still was a good time. I have a lot of problems to address in this thread, I hope these concerns, and complaints go to ROBLOX and hopefully make a change.

-Trade Currency

This is something I heavily dislike. Oh, you've spent ten days to get 100 tickets? Guess what, you get 6. Why are we being taxed for virtual money? Does this make sense to anybody? To tax players for a certain amount of ROBUX? You've just penalized the NBCs! Why? On a game that's free, you've already limited the NBCs to just doing certain things. You already have BC Benefits, where are the NBC benefits? 10 tix a day is a benefit? You have to wait two days just for 1 robux. I am sick and tired of getting these taxes. We are not gonna welcome this system to ROBLOX anymore.

-Minimum Cost for User-Made Clothing
Who came up with this idea? Why do we want to buy a shirt that is 100 tickets. Just let that sink in... Everyday, you earn 10 tickets, and it'd take you ten days just to get a shirt. For a full set, it's nearly an entire month! Do you realize just how abysmal these ideas are? Does it look like I want to wait twenty days for a full set of clothing? Nobody does! If you're just trying to get people to buy Builder's Club, it's working. It really is working! You've gotten people to spend five bucks a month just so they can avoid some crappy system. Good job ROBLOX, I applaud you for that.

-Paid Access
Paid Access is NOT a good idea. What if someone makes a game that looks like it's made with a lot of scripts, but really is just a baseplate with a a wall of words insulting the customer. That really can happen, and they'll demand for a refund and going to the maximum to get their hard-earned money back. Do you want to see people complaining on threads because this guy made a game that looks like it'll be award winning, but really is a baseplate and a wall of words? Yeah, I thought so.

-Hackers
This is both the community, and the developers fault. I've gone into games where the baseplate is gone, or someone just admin hacked & turned the game into a swordfight, into something that belongs in an adult film. Seriously, if you're just gonna let places have Anti-Hack scripts, instead of you guys patching them, then that's not being responsible. If you're gonna rely on us to keep our game from being hacked, I don't even know what to say.

If you have any other reasons why ROBLOX is going downhill, I'd like to know. But, if you think my concerns are just my problem, then feel free to reply & I shall respond. Please be logical about your replies. Thank you.

Your reasons for that? I'm just addressing my complaints. You may state your reasons for why you disagree with me. I have no problem with it.

The only reason why I think it's better is because of the more advanced places. They can sometimes be more fun than the games for $60.

Point 1 is a decent point, but I still think it can be controlled by the devs.

Point 2 is good and bad. It's virtual money and they can crank out as much money as they please. I do agree that it's not their best idea.

Point 3 is something I can agree with. But it's not all about the money, also they might end up making less money than usual because of the people who don't get as much ROBUX.

Point 4 didn't really relate.

Remember, it's because of the games. They're getting a lot more fun but that's not enough to keep ROBLOX going up.

Why should NBC get benefits? What do THEY contribute? Hint hint, BC PAID. It's VIRTUAL clothing. Why the hell does it matter?

Hey, I dunno if you knew this, but...ROBLOX needs money to run.

It's actually a VERY good idea. It allows developers to make more money.

"-Hackers

I've gone into games where the baseplate is gone, or someone just admin hacked & turned the game into a swordfight, into something that belongs in an adult film.

It stinks that developers only make 1 tix per visit

Payed access allows them to make a decent amount of money

NBC Users see ads from other companies. So ROBLOX makes money off of them too.

It's virtual money man. Are you joking?

It's a flawed idea. But remember, it's not all about the money.

True, we can never stop them, but we can prevent them.

To what ROBLOX had in mind for a free game is still a living dream today.

The gaming is free.

The building is free.

The scripting is free.

The learning is free.

ROBLOX was meant to help game developers learn about gaming, LUA, and design. And as an NBC, you can still do that.

Everything BC+ is just extra *REALLY WANTED* features that kids just need to learn to live without. It's pretty much more of a donation to me. I think ROBLOX should have a way to donate and not get any features in return.

You don't need the clothing or anything, it's just your greediness that affecting the community by the negativity it's building. We don't need complaints like this. Everything is fine how it is right now, and ROBLOX does need more money due to having more servers for more players because, guess what. ROBLOX IS GROWING WITH PLAYERS


Half of them are screaming 1-3 graders who want everything and will whine and complain and annoy us actual players and we'd want to kick them out.


Really ROBLOX is meant for 12 and older. Being Twelve, you mainly know what you want to learn, you hit phases and such. ROBLOX really isn't for kids who just want everything and play games the actual players create.


Heres the community of ROBLOX:

Limited Collectors

Showcase Creators

Scripters

War Groups/Clans

Fandom Groupers

"Need to have everything" kids

Forumers

Learners

and

The ROBLOX team. (Mods too.)

Like what, .0003 cents?

Dev Exchange

Um, no. It IS. ROBLOX runs on Money.

I do agree there.

But do you hear the people who make these games complaining? The people who make Paid Access games are most likely just in it for the money.

3D, I fully agree with your arguments. ROBLOX is not only made for learning, people can use it differently however they want to use ROBLOX. It's just the things that I dislike about some design choices.

I'm thinking about your statement literally. Before we had bartering, so did that not make the world go around? I don't think so.

Oh my God, you're an idiot.

We're not talking about bartering. We're talking about MONEY. The Green stuff. The thing that makes everything run.

No money? No ROBLOX. No money? Nothing. It's THAT simple.

So you're saying that every user that logs on everyday are spent money on? I don't think so, it's virtual money. Money that's on a website. Money that was coded so it would never run out. It's as if you're thinking this as if it were real life.

If you were talking about users spending money on the game, then let me just put out something.

-Most of the ROBLOX population are either not active, or NBC. So, NBC's are shown ads. When you're shown an ad, the website makes money. The amount of browsing one does on ROBLOX makes them lots of money. So, if you think they don't have enough money to run to a point where they have to make everything go up would be the point where they start doing some things like, turning the game into P2P.
