They never think anything through before they do something.

No work arounds, rather than making something that keeps convenience and security, better to just cut time out of laziness and remove it all together. It's ridiculous. Not only incredibly stupid, but here are all the other issues with it-

There are ways around it and WEBGL3D, ROBLOX+ developer is already fixing his item notifier on ROBLOX+.

Unfair to the common user because they probably don't know much about the rather confusing catalog when they first join (I STILL have issues with the new one...)

It hides all valuable items from view pretty much from EVERYBODY, even LMaD'ers who want to click through the inventory and see how a particular item is doing.

Is an attempt to basically force feed all of the expensive 1,000 r$+ items to players that are all on the featured catalog page, enticing them to purchase a membership and/or ROBUX because they can't easily view the inexpensive items.

I think the handling of leakers was handled terribly (as with most new updates). Rather than relying on a bot system to upload assets and release to the public after a certain time passes, they could easily store them off of ROBLOX and have someone manually upload them when ready. It really wouldn't take that much time, all someone would have to do is click a button and upload the hats. If they simply did this and kept it around, it would make things quite easier for everybody.

And yes, this reason as to why it was removed was confirmed by the ROBLOX admins. If you're interested, take a peek at this-

Oh alice, I know

I'm fully prepared though. I have this saved in a word document. Even if you cut out a man's tongue, it doesn't make him a liar and I'll still just re-post.

It may take some time to update for you, but they really have removed it

Try restarting your browser completely and you might see what I mean

I honestly don't think that it is more intuitive for a new user to new users to check one of our accounts to see where items are. How would they even know to do that starting out? In any case, we did this to better prepare for events without spoiling them (which is something a lot of people disliked).

"I honestly don't think that it is more intuitive for a new user to new users to check one of our accounts to see where items are. How would they even know to do that starting out? In any case, we did this to better prepare for events without spoiling them (which is something a lot of people disliked)."

So, will it be brought back after the events? I'm curious.

The ROBLOX profile has been the place to see everything to do with the game since day 1 of this game, and the system has worked just fine. When I joined I knew what the ROBLOX profile was because I saw it all over the catalog, and I clicked on "his" name to check his profile. I didn't like all of the expensive hats that were being showcased in the catalog (much like they are now, only 1,000 r$+ hats), so I clicked ROBLOX's profile and flipped through the pages to see hats that were more in my budget.

When a new user clicks the catalog to try and find something they want to buy, do you think they just magically have thousands of robux right from the start? It would be much easier to go to ROBLOX's profile to flip through the pages and see stuff that they're actually able to buy, rather than just seeing all of the expensive garbage that's featured 24/7 and pressuring them into buying a membership or currency.

Simply clicking a page-over button on a profile is much more simple than going down to the catalog clothing thing, clicking "created by ROBLOX", then trying to figure out how to properly use the price range guide (especially if they're new and don't know all of the site buttons).

If you've noticed that people don't like it, the admins should do something about it. After all, if a large volume of people have a complaint then there is obviously some merit to it. Like I said though, it's simply a waste. People are already working to fix their item leakers & notifiers, so leaking will still be an issue. The ROBLOX team hasn't completely stopped people, they've simply slowed them down and it's only a matter of time before hat leaks start popping up again. To make hats easily viewable by the public AND still keep "hats a surprise for everybody", like I said, the admins shouldn't use a bot to handle the grunt work when they could easily do it manually and save everybody the hassle.

Rather than just saying "lol ur idea sux", I'd rather present not just my thoughts but also my reasoning behind them.

No, I'd rather not.

If you feel like posting useless short little posts that's fine. I don't want to though, especially if I'm trying to post for a certain cause.

I'm not playing God. I simply have an idea, and I'm making myself heard and explaining myself rather than just making some short little crappost and not explaining my reasoning in any way. If you just say "hey the new update sucks", that accomplishes nothing because the admins won't know why it's terrible.
