Idea #1: Refunds
Refunds would be accessible from the page of the gamepass. This would return a settable % of the money paid for that gamepass, directly from the creator's repository of R$. Developers would have the options to set the refund rates, though it would be minimum 50%. For Developer Products, a refund could be triggered in-game by coding much like the purchase API. All refund history would be available to the developer.

Idea #2: Player Awardings
Developers would have the option to set up a special "R$ Box" for their game that would take a settable percentage of their income from the game and save it up to be awarded to players. So say player 1 buys a gamepass. In this case he has a 50% rate. So 50% goes to the box, and he gets the other 50%. Then, let's say a player gets an achievement or reaches a goal. He would be awarded a few R$ and/or tix from the R$ box based on how much the creator programmed it to.

This would allow for an optimal experience for ROBLOX players, receiving currency for playing games well and allowing them to get some of their money back from the products they'd bought, letting them feel safer about trying something out.

Refunds? That would be greatly taken advantage of. An example could be Twisted Murderer, some guy gets MVP, and goes to level 500 and then refunds it. And taking money from the developer is are REALLY bad idea; like ultra-bad. Lots of developers of ROBLOX make a living out of it.

Player Awarding? This will also be taken advantage of - this is basically like the Player Points System.

Then put a refund time limit. They have 2 days to refund, once 2 days are up, they cannot refund anymore.

The developer could always make a separate place for testing the gamepasses.

That makes no sense. Most developers do not have the game space to have 2 of every game they make just so they can "test the game pass"

You just said the keyword; "most".

You have to think about everyone, not just one type of person or membership.

Then the developer can use universes. And make a teleporter to a testing place.

Alright, go to every developer, ask them for you to use their account so you can set it up the way you think it should be done. In the mean time I will be watching the time to see the progress you have made.

"Idea #1: Refunds"
"No refunds" - ToS

"Idea #2: Player Awardings"
Why would any dev want to do this, again?

OK first of all:
1. Awardings come FROM THE DEVELOPER. It would be up to the developer how much of his own money to give away to players. It might be another PP-ish scramble but it would actually be HELPFUL to the current economy. Putting tax on it for NBC, due to ROBLOX wanting people to upgrade would make sense, though that would be controversial.

2. Refunds would NOT be a problem either; Again, the developer can set it from anywhere to 50-100% refund. And if his game is really so good people shouldn't want to refund a gamepass because it was scammy; and if it was, the player deserves their money back, simple as that. I'm not going to go around letting scam artists keep their money.

...

You expect me to go speak to the famous developers who barely have any time to speak to anyone, and ask them to use their account? Are you dumb, or just stupid?

Kyru, if ROBLOX did this, they would also be the ones losing out, both the developer and ROBLOX will lose out since the developer will lose his/her earnings and ROBLOX will lose some sales.

@Power
All of the true shops in real life allow refunds of at LEAST 50% that I know of, or some set number. Denying the users their money back because they didn't understand what the gamepass did or because the creator was a scam artist is an unfair way of doing things, and is an extremely one-sided thing to defend.

Well then, it's up to the community to decide it's a scam or not. And these days, most front page games don't scam.

Regardless the main idea was customer satisfaction. What if you downloaded a really glamorous-looking RPG game on the cover for $60 dollars only to find out it was just rock paper scissors? Would you want a refund?"No, of course not. The developer needs that money."
