Obviously Roblox Staff don't want multiple accounts for the same person, that takes up extra room. So why not save everyone trouble and do this: 1. When you've signed up for Roblox (or previously done so), you not only get your 1 place but you get a blank "test" place!
With this test place, you can experiment, make new models, make scripts, etc. without ever having to worry about destroying or accidentally damaging your main place!
The test one could have a limit on size, or something, but also - it wouldn't be for the public.
Thoughts? |

| They should make it so you can buy additional places for 350tix. The maximum would be five. (For Non-Bc members.) |

1. The whole idea of this test place is so that you can experiment etc. WITHOUT BUYING ANYTHING, WITHOUT MAKING 50 EXTRA ACCOUNTS (or even just 2 or 3). Seriously, if someone wanted, they could get 100 places by making 100 different accounts. You can't stop them if they are determined. What's it to anybody if we ALL get an extra test account? It would encourage model building, experimenting, and that means places would get better! Scripts would become more popular! Less "double accounts" would be made! What is wrong with that? What is wrong with a change that benefits everybody and has no bad side effects? The test place wouldn't even be public! It would be for your personal use only.
2. I don't know about the buying thing... you'd probably need a lot more than 350 tickets! Maybe the 1st place would be 350, but then the rest would be in the thousands. I don't know what the Roblox staff would think though.
I still say go for the 1 test place. |

| I love it!!! But if it is a huge user like NintendoZachery or JJ5x5. Everybody would like to see their test page. Then Hacking will be raised by at least 10%. I like it just think of the cons though. |

Hmm... hacking? Well, if that was foreseen as an issue I'm sure there'd be a way around it. Maybe.... but regardless, you'd only have a few things in it and you'd likely delete much of it often because you don't want thousands of bricks! Perhaps there'd be a limit on how big the place was or how many bricks you could use.
Still, I don't think it matters if someone did hack... I don't think you'd care. The test place would be for model building and such, so you'd get to see it later anyway. Scripts are tough to find, but it isn't a guarantee that anyone will have them, and you can usually ask anyway. Most of what would be in the test place would eventually come out to the public at some point, so I would think no one would care. |

People won't abuse a test account any more than they abuse Roblox in general. It is a good place to build models, scripts, etc. without having to worry about destroying your place.
Good idea? Thoughts? Staff? |

| Why don't you buy Builder's Club? They aren't goin to make an extra test place. Or just use your place. (I know you don't want to, but this is the only way). |

"Maybe the test place is a secret? So know one knows except the owner?" (zameer) That's exactly what I mean. No one would get to see what you are doing, so it wouldn't really count as a place. Besides, there'd be very strict size limits, so you'd only have enough room for a few medium-sized models, or one fairly large model. The point is, it wouldn't be big.
"Why don't you buy Builder's Club? They aren't goin to make an extra test place. Or just use your place. (I know you don't want to, but this is the only way)." (Spyro)
1. I don't want to buy, because I don't want to waste the money on a game I won't have a chance to play. Roblox is worth it, but I don't have the time, and so why would I bother? 2. I don't want another "place", I think a "test place" is fine. I define "test" by saying that there are limits, as I said earlier. 3. Say you have Builder's Club. You've got 10 awesome places, though they are all under construction. Something like that. Now what are you going to do? There isn't enough room to build safely without endangering your objects, and all you want to do is make a few models to use repeatedly in your places.
#3 is possible, and it is the same problem as those without B.C.
Anyway, what's wrong with giving people an extra few blocks building space? Anyone else have any ideas? Comments? Etc.? |

No it isn't. This thread is only 10 days old TOTAL.
I forgot another thing. What is stopping someone from making a fake account? So now they have two accounts. It's happened before, lots of people do it. WHY? Because they have only one place, or what? They want to make models, scripts, etc. -- what ever the reason is, it's not going to help ROBLOX. That means additional information saved on the character and profile, and a whole extra place.
Also, I can't do anything in my place, because say I have 20 minutes to make a model. Besides the fact the model automatically goes into thin air sometimes because my place is somewhat crowded (which makes it difficult to build), I can't save what I've done because that'd mess up my place! |

| Use Roblox Studio. You can save a place on your hard drive but not publish it until you're ready. Then when it's done you can put it up on your regular or Builder's Club account. |

All I think this test place should be is a nice little place with a size limit (or maybe not, I don't know) that would encourage people to NOT make multiple accounts. I need this to continue my place, since I have myself have too much stuff. I want to downsize, but I need models, but I want MY PERSON WITH ME!
I don't know if they'd add a "friends can visit" option or not... my thought was this was simply a test place where you could construct ideas that weren't good enough to put into a place. Maybe anybody could look at them, I don't know (nor care). I just though that since BC has the feature of making 10 places, let's not make a BC thing, just a small test place.
And, on the point of view of Roblox staff, it's like this: WITHOUT (or at current) -People are making lots of new accounts WITH (the test place) -People are making less accounts for themselves, and instead using the test place -Places are improving since there's a good test place to use instead
ALSO, say there's a model that is so cool, you want only your place to have it. You can't make a model in another account and then, risk-free, transferring it to your other account by making it public and then making it private. There's a chance that someone may see it and like it. With the test place, you can still make your own models, etc.
Possibly, the whole thing could be resolved if they added a character capability to the Roblox Studio. I don't care if that's how it's solved, because then there wouldn't need to be size limitations. I just like the idea of being able to edit the way you do your place. |
