*TL:DR Alert!*

Alright, so people say that ROBLOX is truly greedy about their

MONEYZZZZZZ

But, let's think about it for a second...
Let's look into Builders Club for a second. Monthly BC ranges from 5.95 to 19.95 USD, the cheapest buy. But pause for a second. Do you REALLY need all those extra items to customize your avatar, do you REALLY need ro-bux?

Listen to this, this may surprise you.

There is something called "Servers" In ROBLOX.
They keep those games that you play running. And there are about over 1,000 of them running right now! So in order to get servers, they need to buy them. Estimate of the daily cost of servers? Over 1,000 USD!!! So if someone helps ROBLOX and gets lifetime OBC, they still aren't cutting the price DAILY of running the servers! And people are complaining how much monthly OBC is.

So BC is kind of the top of the tree for this argument. Money keeps ROBLOX running, no money for them, equals no fun for us! And no fun for us equals boring life!

The price change for BC over the years is basically the ROBLOX admins not getting enough money to get the servers running! When they don't have enough money for the servers, they have to raise prices!

So the verdict? ROBLOX is not greedy what-so-ever. They just want to keep this website running to amuse us all!
So the next time you want an item that costs 100 Ro-bux, try to support ROBLOX and give them a hand!

Have any other reasons why ROBLOX is not greedy? Or maybe a defensive reason why ROBLOX IS greedy? Post down below!

This isn't an answer,
It's not surprising,
I hear this crap everyday.

This is my opinion.

I have my proof why it is my opinion, I'd like to share why.
Whoever says ROBLOX is greedy doesn't even bother to read this.

the price floors update was pratically really for making nbcs (more like forcing them) to buy bc. they even said it was to push them to buy membership.

The thing is, most of the people here on the forum know this because we are intelligent enough.

This message needs to be sent out to those noobs currently playing front page games.

Considering a machinima made by "PhirefoxRBLX", they mention the "Server bills", which cost a heck of a lot of money. Over 1,000,000 Dollars to be exact. So, in order for ROBLOX to be "Greedy", OBC Lifetime should be WAY WAY more then 349.99 dollars.

For those who don't want to read the long post, the short answer is no.

Plain, simple, and straight to the point.

Online currency doesn't change the fact of "Greedyness". ROBLOX is a kind-hearted community. Remember that the price floor was set to 300 Tix and 30 Ro-bux? And they changed it to 100 Tix and 10 Ro-bux because the players were complaining? And I forgot to mention, YOUR the one being greedy. You just want every, single, thing handed to you right on the spot! Like Ro-bux, Items, Gear, and much-much more! Forget about the online currency! ROBLOX is about creating games for you to enjoy, and for others to enjoy your games! The catalog and avatars are miscellaneous on the website of ROBLOX! Building and playing is the main concept.

Is this thread stupid? - We all got the answer!

Roblox ain't greedy it needs money to run servers and stuff.
Would you call orphans greedy because people donate to them?

@Roar That's why I made this thread! To say to all those people that think that ROBLOX is greedy because to let us access the ro-bux and all those other features, they are being greedy because ROBLOX NEEDS money, it's not a WANT.

you're*
also they ignored the players for some time
the fact that they went through with the idea was shocking,though
roblox is a free game,so adding more and more pressure onto NBCs to buy membership (price floors main reason was that) was why i hated it.
