Look, I know what you're going to do after reading that title. You're just going to scroll down and not read it and then say "WNTS". Other people will just call me an ingrate. But if you're going to read all of this, then you better sit down and listen.
Back when I joined on my main, Robloxrocks3376, on October 13 or 14 of 2008, things were so much better. I was able to make Robux and Tix by selling cool shirts and pants that I loved to make and wear and that people loved to buy. That was then. This is now.
Now, nearly six years later, I'm completely broke. I still get a good amount of Tix, but what's that good for when a majority of items to buy requires Robux? The only people who can make it big on this site are the BCers, as they have the ability to make clothing and sell it for profit. But why are they the only ones who get to do this if they're already swimming in Robux and Tix? What about us?
Nowadays ROBLOX is starting to become a lot like one of those free apps that you can get for your phone that requires you to give them money if you want to be able to do anything fun that requires virtual money. It wasn't always like this. Back then, BC was an option. You got a few extra perks. A free hat, some more daily Robux and Tix, but it wasn't required by any means. Now, it still ISN'T a requirement, but it sure is a requirement if you plan on making any profit. NBCers can't even make their own clothing anymore. How screwed up is that?
I know that ROBLOX needs real money to keep it going, but at what cost? At the cost of taking away important privileges such as selling items and making ads and making money a requirement if you want to even make one single Robuck, that's what. It's just really starting to get on my nerves.
Maybe I wouldn't be mad if ROBLOX incorporated some sort of system, like maybe achievements. For example, you get three achievements at a time. When you pause the game, you can see your list of achievements and how far you are. Once you complete a set amount of achievements, you could earn a prize, like maybe free hats or some free Robux, ranging on how hard or easy the achievements you just completed were. And the achievements don't even have to be specific to any game. You could get an achievement for bloxxing 10 people in any game, or dying 10 times, or any of that. Other NBCers along with me just want a way to get Robux again, |

"I still get a good amount of Tix, but what's that good for when a majority of items to buy requires Robux?" if you didnt know yet, you can use Trade Currency to swap your tickets for robux if you know how to do it well, you can even make a profit off of it
id be okay with achievements, but implementing them would be rather difficult without spawning achievement-grinding places (and because alts exist, no monetary prizes), not to mention the prize hats would suffer from the gibus syndrome |

15 tickets are worth about 1 robuck at the time of me posting this, meaning that it would take us NBC'ers two days to get one whole Robuck. Well, a lot of good that does us.
Player Points should be something other than bragging rights. Maybe if you could cash them in for Tickets. Maybe 1 player point = 1 ticket?
Yes, NBC'ers had more rights back then, but that was back when ROBLOX was a smaller game and NBC'ers took up a vast majority of the ROBLOX community. When BC started getting advantages over NBC, people gave in to the six bucks a month to get somewhere.
Nowadays, we have 3 different types of BC, with TBC being the middle ground between the two. I have no problem with the rights us NBC'ers have, as we're too cheap and stingy to get BC. ROBLOX was built around the concept of playing user-made games since the beginning, and it still is to this day.
So either make do with what you've got, or buy BC. It's not changing anytime soon. ROBLOX is a company that needs a source of income to survive, just like any other company out there. If NBC'ers started getting some of the same rights that BC'ers have, most people would not have the need to buy BC anymore and ROBLOX would begin to lose a profit. |

Partially WNTS. Here's a suggestion:
Make a game. Sell a Game Pass (Robux or Tix). Wait for someone to visit (1 tix!!). Wait for someone to buy Game Pass (10%!!!) |

It's so sad that NBCers can't sell anything...
We deserve care! We are people part of the community too, but all that the Moderators do is give BCers awesome stuff, and always forget us.
Please ROBLOX, just stop being greedy... |

| I get how you feel. My friends are NBC, and they keep paying for Robux just so they can buy things. Roblox is just becoming greedy. And I bet they'll content delete this post, just because it says something bad about Roblox. |

@Above
A company does not run on virtual money, they need REAL money so survive. BC gives them the money, in return, they get more features. |

But I'll say this:
Care enough about a virtual game, you have no life. |

| In my opinions NBCer's should be able to make a shirt,clothing etc BUT instead of having a 30% market fee we should have a high rate such as 40-50 and in the end each sale would total to be around 5 robux or 50 tix a piece of clothing |

Hey, morons who say ROBLOX is greedy.
ROBLOX is a company. Run by people.
Companies exist to make MONEY. People need MONEY to SURVIVE |

Another bunch of idiots ignoring the WNTS because they think they're right. Rules are rules. NBCers don't have rights, either. They have privileges. We're just sponges, not giving back anything. BC has gotten more powerful because Roblox needs more money to expand it's BUSINESS. It has to make money, and lots of it. |

I like to believe that BC is a great bargain for $6.
Too much of a bargain.
You get:
5 more groups to join make groups get robux (Which is worth SO MUCH since the TC is corrupt) join BC games Make clothing Buy special BC items in catalog 10 active places
Roblox should remove some of these and let NBC use too. 6 dollars for all of this. Either get BC for yourself, or pray that some rights are given to NBC. |

"Player Points should be something other than bragging rights. Maybe if you could cash them in for Tickets. Maybe 1 player point = 1 ticket?"
I agree with the concept, but consitute my own with: "One player point = 1 Robuck?" I just lost my BC a couple of days ago, that I've had for six months and so far I'm really dissapointed in what NBC roblox has become in the past Six months. I think that making a Player point equal 1 Robuck is a good idea.
Some may argue that if a NBC has 5000 PPs he will get 5000 Robux and that shouldn't be allowed. My recall to this would be that who cares? There are TONS of BC people that have OVER 10000 Robux; let alone 5000. And BC will still be ahead, because they will get their daily Robux and PPs. (Daily Robux + Player Points = A whole lot.)
"I reject your reality, and constitute my own."
