I once saw some one say this,
"We, the community, are simply not worth listening to; we aren't constructive. We're merely destructive, as evidenced by Malvus, as evidenced by you, and by evidenced by most that follow you. Destructive criticism is merely insult after insult, why listen to that?" – Espithel

All right, here’s my response. Today I will do price floors. In addition, that quote was from today, I just thought I would do that :P.

Price Floors:
Pros:
1. Makes people want BC more
2. More BC people also means better of an economy because of BC games. Not just BC games but also BC people buy more stuff
3. If people buy more stuff they give, the creators of that item you bought to buy more stuff. If people did not use money to buy items then the economy falls, it relies off of buying and selling.
4. There can be less “noobs.” If people call NBC’s noobs then why not have them get BC? If most of roblox got BC or removed it (I do not want BC removed personally.), then most of roblox would get insulted less thus making it a happier place.

Cons:
1. People who cannot afford BC will struggle in the economy, like people who live on the streets in real life from bankruptcy.
2. It affects all the way from the strictest groups to the least strict group in roblox.
3. Roblox is about creativity, fun, and imagination. The characterization option menu originated with the idea to allow you to dress how you want using creativity and imagination. The fact that we have to wait weeks for a full set of clothing is a bit of a killer in the term, imagination.
4. A-lot of people such as my self enjoys making costumes and such. Now people that liked and or really enjoyed doing that can’t as much due to the new high prices of clothing.

Ideas of ways to help this problem:
1. Give NBC 3-5 Robux a day.
2. If not try giving them a chance of 3-5 Robux a day.
3. Make BC much cheaper
4. Give Veterans Robux, Maybe like 5-10 a day, or every other day.
5. Give NBC’s 44 Tickets a day for 2 Robux a day. Currently the exchange rate says 22 tickets=1 Robuck.

I worked on a full hour on this so if your going to comment without support, then at-least give constructive criticism.

The point of the price floor was not mainly to make more people buy BC, so here are more pros based on it's true purpose

--> Raises value of clothing

--> Gives chance for clothes makers to compete with devs

--> Clothes makers can now make profit

Here are some replies to you suggestion

1. Give NBC 3-5 Robux a day.--No, this would make BC more pointless
2. If not try giving them a chance of 3-5 Robux a day.-- How about a prize or something?
3. Make BC much cheaper--$6.00 is expensive?
4. Give Veterans Robux, Maybe like 5-10 a day, or every other day.--Hmm
5. Give NBC’s 44 Tickets a day for 2 Robux a day. Currently the exchange rate says 22 tickets=1 Robuck.--This would only cause the Exchange rate to go higher due to inflation.

Regular BC gives 10 robux a day, I was suggesting a little bit that NBC's get.

What kind of prize, if we come up with a good 1 maybe the admins/developers will make that happen.

When I said much cheaper BC i was talking about OBC and TBC. Honestly it's a kids site, thanks like BC should not be 400 dollars for life time >:l, in fact 300 would make sense.

I can tell you like the number 4 idea.

Thanks for informing me about that on number 5.

you arent from 2007, that's the most stereotypical excuse in the book, and you act like a '14er considering you think BC's get 10 robux a day.
the maximum daily robux nbc should ever get if they get any, is 1 robuk.

I think the whole prize thing would be a good idea. (number 3)

"Knockout 20 robloxians today for 2 R$"
"Get 50 sales on a shirt for 40 tix"

The problem with giving veterans money is that there actually ALOT of veterans.

That is a good idea actually.... The veteran badge can be given to people who played roblox for 7-10 years, seems good. Any one with a veteran badge but not for 7-10 years gets it removed.

Here's another thing. Comment editing. If you need to edit a bad comment or post you can click edit. Moderators can ask you to edit within 24 hours if they don't the post/comment gets deleted. I also wanted to say that 1 robuk each day for NBC's would be fine as well.

Not smart in "ANY SHAPE OR FORM" eh? All those pro's i gave were true and all those cons I gave were true. I gave ways on what mods could do based on the pros and cons.

Veteran's badge for people who have been on ROBLOX for 7-10 years?

1. Roblox started in 2006, which means ROBLOX has been alive for 8 years. I mean, they could change it to 2 years, but 7-10 IS NOT RIGHT.
2. This is a stupid idea. Most of your ideas are stupid.
3. GTFO.

No. No ROBUX for NBC'ers.

Not because I'm greedy, because ROBLOX can't allow it anymore. I told the reasons far too many times.

"--> Raises value of clothing

--> Gives chance for clothes makers to compete with devs

--> Clothes makers can now make profit"


1) Yeah, it does but do give a really simple example: "You rise the value of bread and decrease the value of money.".
Well ####, now you have less money and need more to get the item for two reasons.

2) Sure but they could sell their clothes for a high price any ways, if the item is good enough, people would buy it.

3) They could make profit before. I used to be a builder's club memeber for years and when I was a really new player and saw BC, I got it and copied a really unpopular clothing item, i added a few tweaks and BOOM it sold over 30000 times for about 5 tickets. Now, I will do the math: (30000*5)-30% = 105000 tickets. At the time I was insanely happy about that. To this day only a fifth of that amount remains in my account, I am still happy and if you asked me price floor or not, I would still say not. In the final months before the price floor (I cancelled my OBC for that), I had made a few wearable items from scratch and even they sold hundreds of times with a relatively high cost.


4*) And I would like to bring out something here, some clothe makers might not even want that much profit. Believe me or not, but there are still people in this world that just want to be nice and kind to others. While most of the people have lost faith in humanity, I still have some hope left. That hope, so far, has not been misplaced.


And always when I post a long... words... thanks for reading this mess of a text.

@Superfry, actually, the main idea of raising the price is to eliminate copied clothing, let the clothing be affordable yet awarding to the creator, attract non paying users into buying Robux (source is from Max Benedek and the blog) and to compare the ROBLOX economy to games, Dev Exchange, etc. The price floor is staying as is, 300 tickets seemed really unfair but 100 seemed a little too low, I would suggest 200 to be the average though as it seems more awarding to the creator of the clothing. And my main is de3ja3 if you didn't know, I have TBC, so this is how I know. I like the idea that ROBLOX raised the price, I've seen many copied apparels and some were not transparent on the neck line and arm, which is a rip off, and some clothes are a scam. 1 tickets seemed really cheap and the creator wouldn't get enough profit for their time spent on making that shirt, you get what I'm saying? If the price was 200 that would seem really reasonable, but 100 is okay, but not that good. 100 seems a little cheap.
