Okay, so obviously people don't like the new roblox, and they think its trash compared to the old roblox. Okay okay, i'm no 2006 player, just your average 2011 guy.
So a lot of you complain that things are bad compared the the old roblox. Well from my point of view, that's not the case. Sure the old games were fun, but there are parts that I want you to truly recognise.
I am no forum poster, so I don't know whats going down, but hear me out please.
Roblox, 2011.
Febuary, about to watch a movie, saw the advert of roblox, saying Play Now! with a pirate.
Guest 2437 (seriously that was my first guest number. I accidently recorded a video while playing and its still on my Roblox folder)
I joined my first server, expecting something cool. What game other than Survive a Plane crash came up first, but I, thinking it would be gory, skipped it and joined...
S.W.A.T. Zombie Rescue Mission.
My favourite game, where i would run around waiting for a helicopter to pick me up before the zombies ate my brains. Amazing as it was, i didn't stop playing it till August.
Around July(Or June) I created my first account. Robonhaaad.
I made my first friend coolymeg, and had lots of fun.
Now, The rest is obvious, I had fun, it was wacky, it was crazy, etc.
But coming to the point here, you can still relive that now.
People don't like change. People act odd to change. Everyone felt weird after 2013.
Most left... but I sticked to roblox. I wanted to experience it more, even though i hadn't realised what happened. I didn't like the new layout, and i was really confused.
But come on. Its a web page. I found out what and how to do things
Now as i was playing, I found that people were talking a lot more, and were starting to be a bit more than happy. Hyper. They were dissing people, having arguments, and being sarcastically annoying.
The first way i experienced it was the Infamous sand box for nbc. I thought it was just one person, so i went along to Survive the 91 disasters.
It didn't happen again.
You see, what i learned from that is not to take everything seriously. People have feelings and react to change in different ways. When people start to "bully you" or whatever, It'll hurt all right, but you will learn from it. Not to bully with them, but to help others withstand it like you have.
Not all people in the community are or were like that.
So someone starts to bully you. Chances are they are having either a bad day, have a horrible life, or just think its funny.
And the fact that people find dissing kids who are around 7 or 6 funny, really makes me feel sick. Like you're teasing a little kid, who on the other side of the network, could be crying, possibly screaming by their parents who watch what you are saying to them. So honestly, I say keep to yourself. Because people like that, need to really get a grip.
Without leaving from the bullying section, People are still nice today. You just have to make a good approach to them. Everyone gets angry some times, so don't feel bad if your best friend turns against you.
People change mentally just as they do physically. Teenagers usually get angry a lot more, and this can also happen with pre teens.
Now the main problem with the community, is the word "noob".
What is a noob? A noob is a new player, or a short word for Newbie/New bee. So by new player, i mean someone who joined within the last 5 months.
Just because someone joins after you, it doesn't make them a noob.
Was a noob ever bad? No. People just thought it was funny, or a diss to call someone a noob. honestly, its not. its just a name.
Noobs are never the annoying people. They are the people that just want friends, or are trying to be social if they have a bad real life.
The annoying people are you. Who makes the community bad? You. You are the community. If you be mean to one person, they take that on and be mean to the next person, etc. Realise that people get upset. Go through the internet with a smile on your face.
Now. another problem is the word, ODer. Clearly roblox hasn't stated what an ODer is enough.
An ODer, or Online Dater, is a player who tries to date people, or find a date.
How can you find the different between a roleplayer and an ODer? Well, a roleplayer, even if they say 123 for bf, or Wanna date, will never take it seriously, and by the time they join the next day, They will forget about it, and never continue "dating" with that person.
An ODer, however, will continue this between games, even non-roleplay games, like Twisted murderer, etc.
Now. If you see someone calling their friend, babe or whatever, that doesn't mean they are an ODer. I have met several people in my life, who call each other babe, because they Date in real life, not online, and that's fine with me, as it should be with you.
Now that's all out of the way, I can talk about updates.
So, Updates. Pointless. Small. Terrible, etc.
That's not true.
Updates are usually small but your going to use them whether you like them or not eventually.
They usually simplify what was hard, or make something possible that wasn't.
Have you ever thought of updates becoming part of something?
If i remember correctly, in club penguin, didn't they hold outfit compettitons or something like that? The outfit option, (though made by a web intern, Merely) Still could lead to something big, as can anything else.
Small mail update? Maybe It wont become something like that, but It will still be useful and interesting.
So my last issue, is the games.
Can you not have fun in them? No. You can have fun in them if you try.
Is a game too hard? Aren't they all. Try another one.
You make friends with who ever you want, and create bonds you might of thought were impossible.
Infact, my best friends are noobs. Because i was the person to show them how to be nice, they turned into nice people.
So now my request, is for you to carry on a legacy of kindness, respect, and all around friendship to who ever you can.
Sorry for a long post,
Thank you guys

I feel that roblox went downhill ever since they tried to make themselves a serious development platform, such as using bland one-colour site designs to make themselves look 'professional' and having boring developer events which shouldn't be exposed to new players because they're, well.. not very good.
That's just me tho. |

I find it interesting how people react like that. Bland one color designs, basic and understandable, sure are ugly, but the game is what matters.
What I am really interested about is how you think that dev events aren't good.
Sure they are hard and leaving out people who cant, but it always allows other people to try for the next year, and use their best sources to become the best dev

Actually it's the other way round.
They take no time to complete and I find them pretty easy, but I can see why they would be. Other times it's just a mess like Taymaster's egg hunt game... |

| Wow. I agree. Although I may seem new I pretty much first played this game in 2012 until I forgot that account. I joined back in 2014 during a time I felt lonely. I made 2 accounts yes both did get termed. But I seriously noticed how much people hate on small things, opinions, updates, etc. They can never find the good in them and always say we wish the old roblox was back. I wish people would stop being so negative and try to see what we really have on this amazing site. The community needs to take a grip and realize the same site is here. It's just updated. |

| I've actually taken breaks from the forums because of how negative and crazy it has become. Of course we can thank others outside roblox for how they act. They take it on from others and others here follow them. I do miss when everyone didn't hate on everything and the community was actually good. We can still change it but people won't change as they can't take change and automatically only look at the bad. |

Wow thanks for taking your "minute" to think about it and it shows how people out there actually can interact in good ways. I guess to all of you I cant agree, as everything I take as a motive, not a negative show.
Also my teacher and I <3 Sailor Moon. I think its funny and wacky, but fits in when compared to other manga and anime. I'm a boy btw.

| @Sun this isn't what happened to me. these bullying and issues go on with my friends. I stop them by causing arguments myself. Which obviously gives me less friends. |

I agree with this. It's become more about money than the overall enjoyment of the game. There is less staff-to-user interaction and that plays a big part in the morale of players. |

| I remember games like DML Prison (which is now dead), but now it's just 100 people trying to make money off these town & city roleplay games. |
