When I got on ROBLOX today, I noticed that the number of knockouts and wipeouts in the statistics section of a profile are gone. If this is just me, ignore the post. If this is an actual update, please put them back! there was no reason to remove them.

So I know people that have worked days to get bloxxers badges
and for some groups to have that it may sometimes get you a higher rank
but it is good as once i knew someone who got teased for his K/d ratio
so TBH im in the middle

@Julian Everyone keeps on saying that...it's meaningless because not everyone has done that. That's basically the only reason why they removed them. That and being "outdated", which isn't a reason at all.

no support, it's not really an important feature and there was almost no reason to have them in, old players may miss it, new players don't care

it's not meaningless, many groups use kos as an entry level requirement, ForeverMarked's entry level is 30K kos.

"they promoted bullying"
>rarely ever happens. plus you can bully people about the number of place visits they have too, so why not remove those?

"they promoted killing"
>that's the point of their existence. they show how many times you have bloxxed someone.

"if you did obbies, a large part of roblox, wos were worthless"
>so what? let the players who enjoyed obbies keep doing what they're doing. no need to disrupt the combat community. the combat community is just as large as the obby community, anyway.

"Also, places were being used to cheat KOs."
>this rare every happened, and it was hard to do. you need someone who is willing to die a large number of times for you.

"they promoted bullying"
No. Not really. I cannot recall ever being bullied because someone wanted kills, or because I had a lack of them.

"they promoted killing"
K sure. Combat games are fun. Don't see a problem here. Are you one of those people who are completely against even virtual combat, which has been scientifically proven that it does not usually carry into the real world?

"if you did obbies, a large part of roblox, wos were worthless"
No. It wouldn't make it worthless. For obbyists it would show how bad you are at obbies, and for fighters it would show how good/bad you are at fighting. It's that simple.

"Also, places were being used to cheat KOs."
Were. That was back in the day when the KO givers worked. Now they don't. Not too many people did it, but I'm sure that if they did it a lot, you could tell. Why use "some people cheated with it" as an argument to remove something? There's always going to be some cheaters. Might as well remove ROBLOX, yet alone the internet as a whole with that logic.


If you were to rack up around 160,000 of something then have it be completely deleted and forgotten at the click of a button, I'm sure you would have a different opinion.

"no support, it's not really an important feature and there was almost no reason to have them in, old players may miss it, new players don't care"



-Where did you come up with "It's not important" other than your own opinion? Tons of people looked at other peoples knockouts. It was a statement of how boss you were. Also, like someone else said on here, it was used for entry into groups. How would you feel if you spent a VERY long time racking up something, only to have it all go down the drain because the developer chose to?

"old players may miss it, new players don't care"
-"Herp derp! Lets make an update only half of the people like!"
-You must be a new player then.
-Why use " Only half of the people don't care for it, so it should be removed" as an argument to get rid of something?

Now groups are going to start to base ranks on actual skill or use proper in-game tests for recruiting - rather than how long someone can spend all month grinding kills or how long someone is willing to AFK in a KO giver with a friend's alt.

As Roblox is getting bigger and more diverse now there are way more different types of games than just killing a poor player getting his way around the game...

Roblox is now focusing on Race games obby's Even wierd stuff... No reason to leave the KO's and Wipeouts since they are not really accurate...

Plus you can just check that out in your own Favorite game.
