Hi all, I haven't made one of my tedious threads in such a long time, I believe this is the first one of 2014. I have been away from ROBLOX working on other projects, but have returned for a while.

For about 4 or 5 months now, ATR hasn't quite been what it used to be. When it was first introduced it wasn't taken seriously, as you would expect. But after a week or so it began to have a meaning, and people somewhat respected that. Threads worth reading were posted here, of which contained intellectual opinions and contexts. People actually replied with credible things, it was rare to see spam or ignorance within this board.

Now, all we see is spam from pretty much everyone. Even people who have been 'here' from the start have joined in. ATR is now a second ROBLOX Talk. The irony of it all is that people who call themselves 'ATRers' knock RT for being ignorant and infantile, however that's all that ATR is. I really no longer see the point in ATR, people treat it as a 'Club House', hosting ATR parties and doing 'L2D' threads for example. No one seems to realize what the point of ATR is. The fact that there is a 'Just. Dont.' thread here just about sums it all up. Is it really worth the hassle ROBLOX? Instead of having "two RTs", just have one. It's less work.

How can this problem be fixed?
In all honesty, it really can't. It's beyond fixable. ROBLOX just simply has way too many children, I'm not saying that as a negative, but you really can't expect to have a 'serious' subforum (what ATRs purpose is) when over 50% of your users are below the age of 14. That just doesn't work.

I suppose you could try moving ATR from the top of the Forums page to somewhere else, because people seem to think that it's a gateway to posting what you like because it's at the top - it's treated as a 'General Discussions' board. The name of the board doesn't really help either, if I'm honest. 'All Things ROBLOX' implies that you can talk about anything regarding ROBLOX, but your topics are limited, so 'All' is the wrong word to use. This is why you see moderators posting on a daily basis, 'Because this doesn't belong in ATR' despite the topic being related to ROBLOX.

What do you think?

@Zzdignityxx,
LOL is an abbreviation, for Laugh Out Loud.
That's three words, learn to count.

Well your comment about children is one of the most idiotic things I have ever seen. I was reading it and it all sounded great before I read 14- children population, for god's sake, how old are you? If you're above 16, then you should really get off ROBLOX, because it's target audience is 9 year olds, so YES there will be a lot of children; if you have a problem about it, quit ROBLOX.

just to correct you there, there are three RTs
rt and ot are exactly the same thing

to be honest, I wouldn't really categorize ATR as "another rt" myself but I do see what you mean.
I personally would call it a "stupid mass of little kids trying to be edgy and absolutely TRAMPLING other subforums because they think they're the best and they call themselves atrers when they only have 300 posts".

100% agreed to this thread. You took things from my mind and verbally summed it all up better than I could have ever done.

@thegoodleader,
'9 years old'
*DevEx*
Yeah, because a 9 year old can use DexEx. Learn.


@Rosieeeeeee,
I don't really class OT as anything worth noting. It's just there.

"ATR is now a second ROBLOX Talk."
Nope.
"The irony of it all is that people who call themselves 'ATRers' knock RT for being ignorant and infantile, however that's all that ATR is."
Try again later.
"ROBLOX just simply has way too many children, I'm not saying that as a negative, but you really can't expect to have a 'serious' subforum (what ATRs purpose is) when over 50% of your users are below the age of 14. That just doesn't work."
I have seen 11 year olds that are more mature than the average 15 year old on here.

Sure seems like you're butthurt. I'm not even an ATRer. I come here sometimes, and I don't see things the way you describe them. The purpose of this sub forum is to discuss things about ROBLOX, right? Isn't that what /most/ people do here?

The things noted were often happening since the start and get eventually deleted, but I do agree with moving ATR.

'Nope.'
I guess justifying is too much effort for you. Or you simply cannot come up with a rational justification. That's fine though.

'Try again later.'
Comedy genius!

'I have seen 11 year olds that are more mature than the average 15 year old on here.'
Well done sir.

'Sure seems like you're butthurt.'
Well done sir.

'I'm not even an ATRer.'
Well done sir.

What did you expect from a forum in a kid's (in general) website?
I see your point though, I would also write something but there is no reason to, as I already tried to help this community but trying is not even worth it anymore.

"No."
Talking about games = ROBLOX Discussion imo
Talking about users = ROBLOX Discussion imo
Talking about streams = ROBLOX Discussion imo
All of the threads on the front page a few minutes ago were ROBLOX-related /imo/

Anyways, what everyone does on the internet:
Let's just say the Internet gives you a mask, and a mask gives makes you anonymous. No one knows who you are and you can pretty much do ANYTHING you want to do, without any physical punishments, or maybe virtual punishments (but barely anyone cares about them.) That, sums up everything, since there is nothing to worry about but being considered a kid or a doo-doo head (trying to avoid using other words.) so thats why everyone just takes a chance and acts in a very different way, they pretend to be someone when they are not even close to being that someone. They just try to be popular or to be a "trending topic" all day, no matter what. But what they don't see is how stupid they end up looking.

@zacattack418,
I'd link you at least 5 threads that are relating to ROBLOX but do not belong here with ease right now. But i'd get banned for PAing.
You have misunderstood the entire point of this thread. Learn to comprehend before criticizing me.
