You may have seen how the currency trade is. It seems to be balanced at around 21.5 Tickets = 1 Robuck. That means to get a cent from the DevEx you need to get 215 visits. A dollar would be 21,500. Enough for a month of OBC would be 428,925. Although developers have other ways of making money than visits, it's those visits that cause people to make accounts and ultimately buy BC/Robux. Shouldn't you be rewarding developers more for impressing possible new players?
There are solutions to the inflation. Since we can't just press a button and lower inflation because the market is user-controlled, we need to raise the demand for Tickets.
Suggestion 1: Only allow ad impressions to be bought in Tickets. There was an update that added the ability to buy ad impressions in Robux. Recently the UCT posted a thread about this (http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=128939063). The only person opposing was gordonrox24 (an admin) and he still didn't accept that it would help even after a huge number of professional currency traders supported. Although this update passed silently on S&I the currency trade community was livid. +Decrease Tix inflation, I was watching and saw the inflation clearly began with this update. -Advertisers may have to spend 30 seconds using the currency trade. (Big deal...)
Suggestion 2: More Ticket hats. At an estimate, 900 million tickets have been spent in total on Ticket hats. With people producing tens of millions of tickets every day though, this just isn't enough. I want to up that number of tickets spent on Tix hats to 4 billion by 2016. +Decrease Tix inflation
Suggestion 3: A new currency trade: Tix to ROBLOX credit. First, for those who don't know, ROBLOX Credit is what you get for redeeming a ROBLOX card or a gift card. There would be a new currency trade (of course user-controlled and anyone could use it) where players would be able to exchange ROBLOX Credit to Tickets and vice-versa. +Would bring Tix inflation down by a landslide. +Turn successful NBC developers into BC developers
So, there are my suggestions. Go ahead and post what you think of them. |

Great ideas! Support! But at the third idea, do you mean that if you get enough tix, you can get yourself a month of BC or something?

| Despite the fact that Shedletsky will know he'll lose his shells this sounds like a great idea! |

| Poke, by the last idea I mean as in a new currency trade being added. Currently we have the Robux to Ticket currency trade where users can exchange their Robux to Tickets with other users and vice versa. With the release of this we would have another currency trade where users would exchange their Tickets and ROBLOX Credit with each other. |

| Support, I mean we cant have ONLY 900 million TIX being spent while there are 10 million a day rolling in and that is just absurd. I mean the community regains all the money spent on Ticket hats in less then 90 days. Also roblox credit sounds kinda good. Now the Roblox credit would be VERY safe from inflation since it has Real life valvue and many people would probably just use it for other things like buying BC, so not a lot of Roblox credit will be in cirulation. |

Support, tickets shouldn't become useless. It was roblox's primary virtual money quite a few years back.

| Support! This would really curb inflation. More ticket hats and the ticket for Roblox credit system would also help with price floors - seeing that Robux would be more accessible. A while ago, David Baszucki made a blog post acknowledging the concern in the community over the price floors and NBC members - well, here's his solution. |

| Sounds like a great idea. The inflation is not bad, but if this keeps up, we may need to remove tix or force a value on the tix. |
