| One of my favorite childhood online games just closed so It got me thinking, will ROBLOX ever shut down? Do the owners have kids who will carry on the website? Will the community keep it open? Just wondering what your thoughts are. |

Well seeing as ROBLOX has given away over half a million dollars in less than a year to developers, I highly doubt ROBLOX is going to shut down anytime soon.
I'm looking forward to seeing what ROBLOX is like in 2020. Builderman said he had some plans for then, awhile back... |

Are you stupid (2)
Honestly, for the 100th time NO.
Roblox is doing better then ever, everyone thinks just because people aren't happy means the company is failing. Let me tell you Roblox Corp is doing amazing.
Even if roblox was to shut down tomorrow, it wouldn't cause roblox has millions of dollars to support it.
If roblox did shut it down developers would probably create a new version. In addition the idea of roblox shutting down well probably NEVER happen.
Roblox well get sued instead of getting shut down.
Look at all the audio they stool.
Roblox well get sued for games that are copied to. |

It wouldn'y be called Roblox 2.
Probably Roblox Rewritten ripped off by the squel toontown rewritten.
Have you noticed since DevEx actual real life developers came to roblox.
The future is bright. |

| Of course it will shut down eventually, there's no way ROBLOX will last forever. Maybe not in the near future, but ROBLOX will reach a point where it'll no longer make enough money to survive. |

I really think what's going to haunt you is the audio you have on the catalog.
If you want to insure that you'll survive for a long time your better of deleting all of it.
Even if riots explode, its a long term investment to make sure roblox is around in 2020.
I don't want to see miley suing you guys. |

World of Warcraft had 12,000,000 paying players in 2010.
Know it has about 7,000,000 the popular franchise is slowly dying.
Yet roblox haven't got to the point were it started "Dying".
In fact in 5 years form know, on twitter and all over social media when Roblox is well known then Roblox well start dying.
When roblox closes are probably be mide 2025.
Just a estimate. |

All the games shutdown once. One of my favorite childhood games, got shutdowned 2 years ago, it really maters how huge player income, and money income per day/week/month/year is. If more players come and more money roblox developers get, longer it stays, but i doubt that its gonna stay forever. All the things end one time. Lol, i would like to see how long it would last.

As some say, yes every game has an ending. Hoping they will last as long as they can carry the game on. I am expecting they will be open until maybe 2017 or maybe even 2020. Although they grow the site. I think ROBLOX Would shut down because of either they have had it open so long, people quit there jobs there so they don't have much workers, or for surely any other reasen.
ROBLOX Would be updated and all, and if you have payed BC Or anything they would cancel it and just MAYBE Give the money back. I don't understand how, but I don't think It's a highly chance for that. If the parents get to know that it would shut down that year, I am thinking they would cancel the BC Directly.
Anyways, I think they would have some warning or "Shout" that ROBLOX Would shut down shortly some day. And one day, we will see ROBLOX Shut down. |
