They really aren't. If anybody on this planet (except for the guy who made Flappy Bird) had the opportunity and the knowledge to make a lot of money, that person would definitely get that money. Why would he/she not?
Everyone complains about unfair privileges for NBC. Do any of you know what marketing is?
Everyone says BC costs too much. If you can't afford 5$ a month for BC, then I have no idea how you have the internet to enjoy.
ROBLOX pays money too. How can you possibly call ROBLOX greedy when they literally give money (DevEx) to users for robux as an incentive for using ROBLOX the way it was made to be used. They also pay for bills, taxes, employees, and just for keeping the website up.
Sure, it's all just pixels, but if it's just pixels, why are you playing? |

| Good post except the DevEx thing. DevEx gets people to make better games so more people come on the site and join and Buy BC. Even without BC roblox would make more ad money. |

| People who say, I can't afford BC!!, well BC is only 5 dollars. You should start good if you want BC and start simple. Not get straight to lifetime. Spend some time with BC, and you will be good in NBC! |

| I thin its hilarious that people think all ROBLOX's revenue through BC, but remember what the guy who made flappy bird made 50k a day with? And who on ROBLOX sees ads? NBC users. ROBLOX makes more than $5 a month. from a regularly playing NBC user. |

@Aero I never said the ROBLOX gets all of its profits from BC. I said that people think that BC costs too much. You might want to read what someone said before arguing.
I'm also well aware of the fact the ROBLOX makes good money off of NBC, but, once again, if you had the opportunity to make good money, you would do whatever you can to get that money. Money, money, money. |

I mean why do I care about ads? And anyways, every now and them roblox comes of with some 1 tix sponsered gear/hat that is actually very good (Like right now for instance). I really don't see any reason to use my real money to buy BC... |

They do make a lot from ads but they don't even pay off the costs to run the servers, movie promotions and BC is needed to pay the employees

| I know you never said anything about all ROBLOX's money comes from BC. I'm not attacking you, lol, no need to be defensive. I just think it's funny that most people do think that. |

It's OK. If I was attacking you I would say something about you saying it. Internet is that way a lot-a tone changes the entire meaning of something. |

@boom Yes, it is free. You have an account. So if you were trying to argue that it isn't free, you disproved yourself by simply owning an account. |

Do you have to have a membership to join? No
Are you limited to play/build games for a certain amount of time? No
It's free, no other way to look at it

I was going to reply, but then I saw that GoldyBlockz has no BC and I was like, "pfft, a free users? theres no way Im going to talk to that!"
Yes, Im being sarcastic. We really do try to keep things affordable. Of course we have really high premium stuff that costs more money, but the game is a lot of fun even without that stuff. When I was a kid I used to play this game on a different account and I had no problem not having BC. Ive been a gamer for a long time and ROBLOX's premium stuff is one of the best if not the best/fair premium systems. |

| I agree with SlingshotJunkie, and this post, I am sick and tired of you people saying Roblox is greedy. This is all the proof you need. Stop whining about BC getting more privileges, and try to have fun instead. Or you could just, y'know... Buy BC. |

| With the community's logic, being greedy is asking for money when the game needs it to run. XD |
