Tell us when ROBLOX was actually released.
It's still a matter of massive debate, and we should know the answer to end all of them.

| Though I can't give you a specific date since I don't know the actual first day, I do know that the open release where anyone could join (what I consider to be the official launch) was somewhere in late July early August of 2006. |

| Yeah, roblox used to be called dynablocks or something, that's why dynablocks.com redirects to roblox |

| Okay it was released as Dynablocks in 2005 and as Roblox in 2006. The launch of Roblox in 2006 was the official release date. It was in alpha in 2005 and beta in 2004. |

Beta was actually pay to play. To play games you needed to pay $5 i think. |
