You are just parroting major news sites, and briefly stating an opinion. This isn't like the Lego Universe article you did a while back where you actually analyzed why it was shut down, you aren't adding anything to the story.

@Naruto

Fact: When your argument can be switched out with literally anything else, you have a terrible argument.

"It's a war clan. Learn what a war clan is."

"It's a game. Learn what a game is."

"It's a movie. Learn what a movie is."

"It's a political memoir. Learn what a political memoir is."

This article reads like it's target audience is more gaming media than ROBLOX users. When a CEO of a company releases a statement, in many cases it comes with a foreword.

No, mojang will.


Do you always feel like somebody's watching you? It's not just a dream. I'm around.

What about it doesn't make sense?

We need to understand that the audience of the ROBLOX blog isn't only ROBLOX users. Gaming journalist also use it as a major source of information. In this case, the blog is giving both ROBLOX users and the news a heads up, to expect a statement from the CEO. Statements from a CEO are generally somewhat rare, so this is a pretty common practice. Companies such as apple for example often release notification that their CEO will be releasing a statement weeks in advance.

@Gordon

I don't think many gaming journalists use the ROBLOX Blog. And besides, it's called the ROBLOX Blog, not the Gaming Blog.

Also, why doesn't the CEO just make a statement without the dramatic flair? It isn't a presidential speech.

Game journalists do indeed use the ROBLOX blog. You can check here:

http://corp.roblox.com/press

to see a variety of articles from the press, many of them centered around the content of blog articles.

Yes, it is the ROBLOX blog not the gaming blog. However, ROBLOX is a part of the gaming industry. The purpose of the blog isn't simply to report on updates to ROBLOX, but also to discuss ROBLOX's place in the much broader gaming community. At one point in time the blog could be completely focused on ROBLOX, and that was fine. However the industry and ROBLOX itself have grown and changed such that a broader approach is required.

So Gordon and phoniex joined within a month away. They have both been around for a while, so I don't know who to believe. I'm gonna go on Gordon's side because he is a mod and joined a month earlier

I enjoy reading blogs and am excited every time I see a new a new one on the home page. But recently, the articles have been very boring.
