Hello dear ROBLOXians!,

After thinking a bit about turtles, I came to the subject of ROBUX, Earning it and getting it as a gift.

Right about now, You're thinking, "This exists skid, Get out.", But wait! There's more!

So, if you're NBC, You can just make a paid access game, Or if your BC, You can just make a T-Shirt... Right?

Well, Yes, But you also loose 90%/20% (If i'm not mistaken,) of the money!

Solution? A Donate Button! Donating via this method requires more than a 200 ROBUX limit, Anything below won't work, and best of all, 0% tax fee!

ROBLOX will never do a 100% tax fee!, While this MAY be true, If this function is added, The best reason I came up with for a 0% fee is:

You can gift people 10$ cards, But what if you just want a little donation, Like 500? 200? 600? Why spend 10$ on a card to gift, Which may be too expensive or too much ROBUX, When you can donate some of your existing ROBUX?

But this has it's downsides, Such as:

Promotion of scamming?! Yes, This is very true and most likely will happen if this idea is added, But scamming has been a existing problem, And has to be reported, Always.

TL;DR: Donation button, A 0% tax fee way to donate!

Thank you so much for reading, Have a nice day, As always!

"Right about now, You're thinking, "This exists skid, Get out.", But wait! There's more!"
Infraction 1: misusing the word "skid" as used typically in Roblox terms
"After thinking a bit about turtles"
Infraction 2: randumb is not funny to most people at this point
"You can gift people 10$ cards, But what if you just want a little donation, Like 500? 200? 600? Why spend 10$ on a card to gift, Which may be too expensive or too much ROBUX, When you can donate some of your existing ROBUX?"
Infraction 3: Over socializing it when you can just give them the card code instead

Please don't attempt to find every error, And how about you actually give a opinion?
1: I used the word as a imitation of the average.. "annoying" person on ROBLOX.
2: It wasn't random for me, I was on "Raise An Epic Turtle" and I needed ROBUX, Thus a donation button.
3: As I said, 10$ cards may be too expensive or too much to give.

Support, Not errors. Please?

well if there are issues with a suggestion, why should they come to be
also, overlooked the downsides
if this would promote scamming and brute entry of accounts, then it probably isn't worth it

Those are opinions, Not issues. Okay, Sir? Even if they were, They are very minor and don't change the subject.

Now, Scamming, While this is a very serious topic, I believe the basic report button helps alot in these situations, While this could make really silly new spams, Such as

"clik the dante butn n get 1000 rubx fre!"

Many people won't fall for it, And the limit, 200$, Will remove the threats almost 100%, As MOST people with 200R+ Know better, Or in some cases, Are too greedy to donate anyways.

"Scamming has been a (an) existing problem"

This idea would increase more scamming

As I said, The 200 ROBUX limit really helps in the scamming, As most people aren't going to fall for scams telling you to click a button and give them 200 ROBUX, It's common sense.

Support. Keep the ideas going as Roblox will see multiple of the same topic and will think about it in the future and implement it

"As most people aren't going to fall for scams"

I think you mean "As most people are going to fall for scams"

Guy 1: Hey if you donate me I will give you a base
Guy 2: Ok *Clicks Donate Button*
Guy 1: BYE NOOB
Guy 2: NO, I've been scammed

@Dark

As I said before, And before again, There would be a 200 ROBUX limit, Limiting the donations to scammers, As most people don't donate to any scammer, It's obvious, While new players may fall for this, Many simply don't have any ROBUX.

And those "Money for this!" are not allowed on ROBLOX, Period. So any person who knows the rules knows that they are a scammer, And it's obvious from the start.

Yeah, that to.
Now that I think about it, no support.

I could make an alt, simply log on once every day for less than a year, and get R$200.

You know, You guys are right! So, Ive thought of a few solutions,

You must be a veteran,
And for a few weeks or so, If this is in beta/alpha stage, It could be BC only.
