"penny pinching"
clearly you do not understand roblox's motives considering how much money they make because of their actions regarding roblox's 'economy' lol
im confident that roblox's growth has more than quadroupled since 2008 at the very least |

Quadrupled? Are you dumb? ROBLOX's growth is far much more than such a scope. |

oh no! they made a ui update
the horror!
shut the hell up lol
the only players they would lose from updates (rarely any, in any case regardless lol) have contributed minimally to roblox's pecuniary interests
pretty much ad revenue and thats it
but then again nobodys going to quit roblox over a ui update lmao |

'business is business' the demise of roblox can be as fast as the growth it has experienced i don't think you understand that business' do have to keep their customers happy i'm not saying this update in particular can make peopele quit, but roblox can not do what they please and not face any repercussions that's not how business works |

i'm not saying it is
the points these people have brought up are miniscule as compared to roblox's advances in the past 5 years in terms of growth
while yes they have to keep their customers happy you also have to bear in mind other new features especially developer exchange and player benefits. while it may be disputed these tactics roblox claims enhance the roblox experience actually do in the long term
fortunately for roblox their player base consists of preteens or younger who have do not exactly scream over the idea of change but rather see it as an enhancement as opposed to the minority players
in terms of this whole nbc shirt creators shenanigans, i have little a clue as to where roblox intends to take their advance but they certainly know what theyre doing and anyone with basic business acumen would understand this
roblox is managed by professionals i hardly think they'd toss out the opinions of their players entirely which is why they havent enforced or proposed even tighter rules and regulations
i suppose you could say theyre just before the line that they should not cross but i personally think they will make changes in the future that will help out their majority |

tbh roblox could do anything stupid. the intelligent people who know it's stupid are such a small and non-vocal minority that it wouldn't really matter. the general community is stupid and eats stupid crap and awful content up like a diabetic eats chocolate |
