So, I went to MicBlang's RDC and decided to be a bit generous and to donate.
I go to the stand and spend 3 HOURS seeing people, asking why they want a donation.
I ended up donating to NOBODY.
I was really hoping to see at least one game developer who's made a promising game who I can help with adverts, but no. Instead half the people ask for robux to buy faces/hats or gear. One guy asked for robux to buy a paid access game. I said to everyone I do not wish for other people to spend my money on cosmetics for themselves. Therefore I declined all of them.
A quarter asked for 'group stuff'. This ranged from new ranks, to ads to MAKING the group itself. I declined all of them because nobody had a sufficient reason (E.G. "I want to make ads for my kitty cat fan group", "I want to make a group about war stuff" (to which they had no places or uniform etc... supporting they would be commited to it), "I want to buy places" (I responded: Why not make one?)).
Anyway, the other quarter tried a bit harder. They said they wanted robux for ads. They came up with loads of reasons such as "It's on my computer" to which I replied "Upload it so I can see it" (nobody did). There were people that said it was inactive, I said "make it active". They promptly left.
All in all I'm a bit disappointed, I came wanting to donate to promising game developers but found none.
Maybe another day! |

I have enough
I was going to donate however much I felt was deserving, like if it was a really good game but not noticed I'd donate a fair bit assuming it looked legit.
And yes I'd still happily donate for a real reason - reply or pm |

Yeah, it's like that. I'd like a donation, not necessarily for adverts (as me and my friends' game is not done yet) but just for a hat I've been wanting.

OP, I hope you went there knowing that the kind of people who turn up at donation centres have a 95% chance of being under the age of 10?
Right, right?

| if someone would advertise a game it would still be for them. advertising is about spending money to make more money, just made you look stupid. |

Yes I did know that :\
The reason I went is because when I made traffic racer (jurok you should remember ;D) it was pretty early stages. I went there looking for donations to get sounds/ads etc..
Nobody did donate lol
Someone did, but not from the RDC. I went there hoping to find.. well.. Me's. |

Shameless idk about you, but I'd rather help a promising developer start a game then a 10 year old buy a basket of bloody eggs.
What do you think? |

if they were a promising developer then they should have enough to advertise their own games. i used to run ads for 200 tix then i started running them for 50k+. money is easy. |

I try my best but it is kind of confusing at my age. For some reason I found python easier. |

Shameless, I just looked at your games....
I don't think you can even relate to being a developer who needs robux.
Developers don't make their whole places with free models xD |
