| You should make the price floors back to normal. After all, price floors were made in the first place because you didn't have much money, right? |

they just want a superfluous amount of money, so they added a superfluous price floor, making superfluous BC'ers in their superfluous community, in the superfluous year of 2014, This whole thing...its just superfluous. |

| Shut up please. Price floors have been here for months. The only reason people are now complaining about it is because the TC is bad. It has and still will take 10 days for you to save up for clothing, because they can still be sold for 100 tix. Though if the price floors were changed accoringly, then it would be a reason to rant. Until then, I see no reason to change the price floor based on the TC exchange rate going bad which is a problem completely unrelated to the Price floor. |

| Well if it isn't a complaint, then what is it? Like I said, price floors have been here for months, and people have stopped ranting about it, complaining only because of bad TC. Also, this post doesn't make sense because the only other price point that price floors have been is 25 robux and 250 tix. Also, it still takes only 10 days because you can still charge 100 tickets. |

| Grant, clearly, the price floors were added because of inflation. When the ROBLOX staff get enough money to support it, they should make the price floors normal. |

| This isn't a plead saying "OMG PLS CHANG PRIC FLORS BAK NOA NOOB", it's saying to wait until they get the proper funds, and don't need to worry about not getting enough money. |

| The price floors were added to let clothing makers make a decent profit, since before the price floors they made barely any profits, if at all, compared to game developers. |

| I Support. The only reason I support is because some of my group members are NBC and I am NBC and they can't afford my group uniform causing my group to drift to BC only. |

| That doesn't make any sense... If anything, they should make LESS profits, seeing as how people will be buying clothes A LOT less frequently. Aswell as that, some clothing makers were making a fine profit from their clothes, or they didn't care. |

| I still see a lot of people who joined after the price floor was added who have bought clothes. Before the price floor, people would much more likely be to buy clothes that were 1 tix, which made the maker no profit due to the market fee. I also saw that commonly those more expensive shirts barely had any sales, were copied and sold for 1 tix. |

Agreed with GoingBallistic.
The price floor wasn't just done as an incentive for BC. It was also done...
- In an attempt to push the quality of clothing up (since people are being a lot more careful with their money they're choosing more carefully what to buy) - To allow clothing creators to profit. People doing it for fun pushed prices down. This is because they usually sold their items for a couple of tickets, since they didn't care about profit. This pulled sales away from those attempting to make a profit. (Desp, we realise that you could still make a profit, but it was still limited by those doing it for fun. A lot of people would choose cheap items, so as save more, than pricier items). - To incentivise people to buy BC/Robux. I wouldn't really say this was a massive point, and I don't believe many people would buy BC solely to make money to buy clothes faster and if they did, that's their problem nobody elses.

ARE YOU PEOPLE STUPID?!?!
- In an attempt to push the quality of clothing up (since people are being a lot more careful with their money they're choosing more carefully what to buy)
And down goes the currency. Besides, we have a choice of putting in whatever prices back then for a freaking reason.

And this affects all of us? You sicken me.

I would say it's all ROBLOX's fault.
Furthermore, those whom just support the price floor for those reasons above, you are just being ROBLOX's parrot. |

@GoingBallistic I'm not crying about anything, you damn idiot, I'm suggesting that when they get out of inflation, they set the price floors back to normal. @Data So basically. - To force people to buy clothes at the risk of them being copies and assume they were being careful. - To force creators to make a profit, and to force people to spend all their worthless tix. - To force people to buy BC. nuff' said |

@Evil, Sheesh. They were the reasons given by ROBLOX, and I agree with them. Clothing creators do deserve to make a profit on what they make, without being pulled back by those happy to sell for a couple of tickets.
@Inte, You're the one being stupid here.
1) Your point about being able to choose any price has any relevance to the given reason, because...? People, whether you like it or not, are being a lot more careful with what they buy meaning the majority are going for quality now, rather.
The day someone doesn't use the "down goes the currency" line will make my day. People blamed the high rate, on the currency exchange, primarily on the fact that adverts could be bidded for in Robux. They reverted it. What do you see? The same high rates.
2) And you sicken me to, so all is good. Do you not believe that clothing creators should be rewarded for their effort? Do you think they should waste a few hours of their life, for nothing? So, in your eyes, ROBLOX should allow sweatshop antics? (Desp, we realise you throw shirts together in ten minutes, it does not mean everyone does)
3) I'm not being ROBLOX's parrot. Just because I support something, and see it as a logical move, does not mean I'm anyone's parrot. |

And did you ignore everything I said? Apparently you did. Unfortunately, for you, I'm able to post where I want and if I want to voice my opinion, over the massive amount of whining going on, then I will.
If you really want me to address what you said:
1) Not really, if anything it should help protect people from buying copies. Before, people would copy pricier items, then sell them for the minimum amount they could to make a slight return (another bad result of not having the price floor). Now, if someone sells a shirt for 100 Tix, and someone copies (selling for 100 Tix), people are more likely to go for the original simply because it's usually of better quality, in most cases.
Also, I didn't explicitly state copying. I merely pointed out that people would feel less inclined to buy crappy clothing, pushing forward more decent items.
2) Sure, I can see your reasoning here. Not everyone wants to make a profit, but a lot do. Those who do outshine those which don't, as evidenced by ROBLOX's refusal to remove it. Creating clothing is no longer a hobby on ROBLOX, but something that has potential to be a "ROBLOX Business", which ROBLOX was aiming for.
3) Doesn't force people to buy BC. Clothing can still be bought. I could understand your point if clothing was to be made BC only. |
