This kind of stuff needs to be optional. Windows 7 is still the most popular OS for a reason. Most people still play roblox on their PC for a reason. As real PC users, we should not have crappy mobile designs forced onto us.

Most of your updates to the UI could should been optional. Mobile devices and PC have different UIs for a reason, roblox. One is used with a touchscreen and one is used with a mouse. With a mouse, you can make more precise movements. We don't need huge blue tiles to navigate a website.

Also, if you have BC or adblock, your whole profile shifts to the left. I read that on smaller screens, the home page doesn't actually fit the screen. If you're going to make new UI, at least do it right.

Oh, so it's not just me? I thought because my screen ratio was abnormal (1680x1050) it screwed up.

Also this new design is "streamlined" or whatever because that's what's hip.

Don't worry, you'll stop whining tomorrow and get used to it, just like you do with all updates. :)

To add on to things, everything is cluttered and doesn't make sense with it's placement. Why do we want to look at our best friends first, instead of something like recently played games?

I have a 1080p screen so I get to see everything, but I do have a problem where it shifts to the left because I don't see ads.

Sadly that does seem to be the trend, forcing mobile UI on PCs. It has been dying down thankfully, but not here. Most sites have a mobile and a PC layout, but roblox doesn't like choice for some reason.

It's okay for people to play roblox on their ipads. It's not what I'd do, but I'm fine with that. But we shouldn't get forced to use their UI because they can play roblox on a tablet.

I've never gotten used to the updates. I still miss the old UI. I'm sick of having these crappy updates forced on us. When I leave this site, it'll probably be because roblox goes mobile only or some garbage.

"I've never gotten used to the updates"
Sucks to be you.

" I still miss the old UI"
I don't. The old UI is crap in comparison to this one.

" I'm sick of having these crappy updates forced on us."
Maybe if you stopped complaining and get used to it, maybe you'll stop feeling sick and grow some brain cells, hm?

"When I leave this site, it'll probably be because roblox goes mobile only or some garbage."
1: Roblox will never go "Mobile only." That's the worst possible thing that they can do.
2: Why don't you leave now? The only thing you contribute to Roblox is BC money. Aside from that, you just complain about every visual update they do, even if it's an improvement.

I personally dont like the new homepage. Now I have to scroll down to get to stuff that was at the top of the previous one. If it is not a critical issue, please give the option to use the old style and not the newer.. so people who like the new can use it, and same with people that like the old style.

well look at who's being edgy today

I never said they should remove said UI changes, I said it should be available for mobile platforms and be optional.

Yeah, UIs are visual changes and you can have opinions on them. I happen to not like the new UI. You happen to like it. No problems with that, but you don't need to be a jerk about it.

It isn't exactly awful. It's just what they chose to be at the top, making me wonder why I should see my best friends before anything else?

I know they're my best friends and all, but I mean, they shouldn't be at the very top. Like someone else said, something like recently played games should be at the top.

What they should do is allow us to customize the home page, or let us drag what we'd like around so that we can all have what we want. It shouldn't really be that hard.

It should be optional instead of mandatory.

Support.

I've been writing Javascript files to force-change the layout to something I can actually tolerate.
It's just getting annoying, now.

roblox needs to understand the differences between mobile and desktop.

maybe then they can make a decent homepage design.
