I bet they're regretting DevEx now

Also, how much money do they even MAKE if they can afford to casually give away 50k?

I realize it isn't that much, but they're still giving away money on a regular basis with DevEx. And ROBLOX isn't really THAT big, last I checked don't they only have one office?

And yet they still can't afford to hire enough moderators to watch over the forums effectively.

The detail you're missing is that this makes their company look fantastic and when people see you can make money off of it like youtube, more and more people join.

If they needed to, they would lower the exchange rate, but obviously they haven't, so obviously the gains are more than the losses.

@Roman

The net worth of the Roblox web site based solely on their website traffic is 3 million dollars. So your estimate seems a little steep. I know that they get money from builder's club and off site ads, but a lot of that money goes directly into a spending budget.

Why do they have only one office if they're that big

They need to flex their corporate muscles

They aren't that big. I think I already made this point.

They're still a private company. They don't have the gains to become a corporate company.

You all accuse Roblox of being some tyrannical multibillion corporation when they aren't.

They're providing you a service, and you feed on this service. If it's such a problem then why do you stick around. They're trying to provide a cool product, but they're also trying to make a profit.

They're still a bit rough. It's not like we think they're evil, we just think they could do better.
