Now before you idiots say "your from 2011" (which you will because I just said that) My old account is coleman98 which is from 2007.
now here goes some roblox preaching
Now here is why "old roblox" is NOT cool. (I'll give the reasons why it was later) - The community wasn't the way people say it was, it was a bit better than it is today, but you could literally have people cursing and screaming at you in servers.
- The games page was also filled with crap back then. not the same "crap" as today, but there was BIG OBBBIES and stuff everywhere. The front page didn't have 100% quality back then, and it never did.
- The graphics were terrible. You tended to lag a lot and the explosions had no quality at all, Just a red ball. Must I say more? No, just go look at some videos of old ROBLOX back in 2006 - 2005
- The website looked like diarrhea. MeepCity looked better than ROBLOX when it was first made. ROBLOX was a very weird looking website back then and the design looked horrible.
- Not as many hats were around back then, and the ones that were didn't have the better quality because the technology they had wasn't as good as it is today to make the good hats.
- ROBLOX Studio wasn't as good back then. ROBLOX has grown into a good tool for young developers looking for a challenge which has reached a high rate of hours played with a million dollar idea. New ROBLOX Obviously wins.
Now reasons OLD roblox WAS good. - Nostalgia and memories, ROBLOX is like a master of nostalgia and memories, if you play for at least 3 years and don't have any good memories then you have no soul my friend. People often want to go back to their childhood memories and re-live them. The human mind looks at childhood memories as good, no matter how crappy it was (usually lol)
- Less greed, It's a honest fact in 2007 there was still less greed than there is today on ROBLOX. There was less greed because there was less things to steal or compete for, making greed more useless. Once R$ came in greed on ROBLOX was honestly born.
- Not as stressing to get on the front page, Now days it super hard to get on the front page (unless you get lucky with some bullcrap game) Because when you choose the development route you have to constantly compete with developers to keep your title. Think of it as wild animals competing for food or something.
- Not as much inflation, The economy wasn't inflated like crazy back then, as in tons of hats that usually cost R$, a currency that can be harder for NBC users to get, with the number of NBC users making it a bad choice. Tons of hats being released that are almost always R$. Just the greed put into the community with each limited is sad really.
there you go.
debate all you want idc, I just felt like making a big post.

who cares about the graphics all they did was change the texture and it couldve been done back then
id rather play older games than the garbage that comes out now pay-to-win pay-to-play can beat it in a day PRE-PRE-PRE-PRE-PRE-PRE ALPHA aka broken but the game passes always seem to work |

The only difference between now and then was
Back then everything was simplified and didn't have very complicated games, scripting, or a site that we have today.
Honestly that's what makes ROBLOX better today, it's not just some kids game, it's a game creating platform.

I mean graphics as in everything.
textures has nothing to do with server lag and quality of Gui, etc.

Well there are things that make old ROBLOX better.
But no matter how hard the "new" players try they will never have the same feeling as us older users did because they weren't there.
no matter how many videos they watch, no matter how many threads they make, nothing.

| All of the old players think old ROBLOX is fun, is because of their friends that quit.. at least for me. That was one of the factors that even kept me on the game originally. Now I only play occasionally and with friends I met elsewhere. The friendship wasn't even mentioned in this post. |

your pros were accurate. the cons were inaccurate... back then of ROBLOX was worse than what it is now. It might have seen more innocent in some aspects but it was just very bland.
I prefer current ROBLOX any day. |
