I mean, I know ROBLOX is greedy, but seriously, what has happened lately? Just thinking back to 2009, price floor was 1 robux, 10 tix. Now we have to pay 15 robux?? And to taxes, what is the point of them, its a childs game. I understand that you could be trying to teach that there will be taxes when you get older, but the point is they have school for things like that. Where do taxes even go, do the robux just get deleted? Do they just get given to an admin, I mean either way, if given to an admin, I don't think they need it, take Shedletsky for example, 112 pages of hats, 30 of gear, and 12 of faces, he has hundreds if not thousands of limiteds, yet he still wants the 30% robux?


TL;DR Price floor and taxes are really bad.

Taxes are to balance the amount of currency.

Why are there taxes on Roblox?
Why are there taxes in real life?

The answer to both of those questions is the same.

Admins don't need robux; that's true.

But BC members get robux everyday, and if too much money flows in the system, it causes inflation. Taxes help lower the amount of currency.

You are thinking too literally. Of course admins don't need R$. What Roblox needs is money. By placing taxes, players will be forced to purchase more R$ or BC, which is how admins earn their salaries.

Just because Roblox is child friendly doesn't mean that the economy is like paying for dirt which doesn't nearly cost 99 cents.

Read this thread, now.

What company isn't greedy? The whole point of business is to make money. If you owned a company, would you give away features for free and sacrifice your salary just because greedy whiners told you to?

What gibbothebee says.

You can't live a business like Roblox by giving everything and not getting anything in return.

lol, they are not greedy you just don't want to pay they nee to pay their workers and run their servers. You are just being babys that you can't get everything you want for free.



Whenever you want to to something ask yourself, "would my father like what I am doing?" If not ask, "Can I get away with it."

@MrJoeyJoeJoey Roblox isn't a gaming company like EA, they're not the ones who make the games, it's their customers who makes the game. Even their slogans says it: "You make the game".

While comparing to EA, they talk about this new awesome game, after developing it, they show gameplay footage that is 100% SCRIPTED and the actual game is a total disaster.

You can't compare EA and Roblox just because of their economy. Gosh people these days
