This will take you through the many ages of ROBLOX. All the way from the beginning of its time in 2003 when it began.
So, in 2003-early 2005 it was known as 'The First Age'. It was known as this because it was the first spark of the large fire, and the first steps toward ROBLOX today. David Bazucki met up with some friends like John Shedletsky (AKA Telamon/Shedletsky) and began with DynaBlocks. A simple building game you'd join up blocks in a black space with neon blocks. By 2004 the domain was bought and a download which has now been lost was up. It stayed till early 2005 when they changed it to 'ROBLOX'. They added the studs, skyboxes and players who could just walk around with that shield and had no animations. It was released in a beta and every time someone joined, the whole office would stop doing whatever they where doing to make sure the player had company.
The game was released in 2006 to the public as 'ROBLOX' and the former domain 'dynablocks.com' redirected there; it does so to this day. It was known as 'The Golden Age'. It went from 2006-2009, the best year of this age was either 2007 or 2008,and to this day those were the best years of ROBLOX. This was when its population went from 0 to thousands, but the moderators made sure their game was okay (unlike now), you would get 10 tix a day and 1 robux for someone visiting your place. All that was added was building and the ability to insert only certain tools, but the game was still popular and fun. Many famous, but now lost users like are92 and miked joined around this era. By 2007 there were more advanced things but still simple ones like vehicles and better physics, and decals. The community themselves DECIDED to be kind, apart from certain people, and then there was 1x1x1x1, an infamous hacker who may be leading the site v 3 r m ! l l ! 0 n. Some say he was a legit hacker, others believe it was Shedletsky's example of what would happen if you hacked ROBLOX (AKA An ip and permanent account ban), however hackers as bad or worse than him get away nowadays with ROBLOX's decreasing amount of moderators that are actually doing something. 2009, ROBLOX began to change.
By 2010 many changes had been added including the removal of circle studs and different textures. This was known as 'The Silver Age' as ROBLOX began to slowly descend from the golden clouds of a perfect community and games. The forum was introduced, there were a few more bad people roaming around, but the game was mostly still fun and friendly. It lasted a mere 2 years from 2010-2012.
Then came ROBLOX's downfall. 2013. The year that they massively changed the site layout, the year that the 3.0 package was introduced, the year online daters began to take over, and the year that ROBLOX began to rapidly descend. This was the 'Age of the downfall' or 'ROBLOX's collapse' which lasted through 2013.
Then on to 2014, where DEVENTS began in mid-summer. This began the Dark Age of ROBLOX which may not change. Ever. The community has only had a lust for money and it is filled with both safechatters and children with behavioral issues. It has become a sad game and it has little to no hope of ever being restored to its golden age.
Too Lazy; Didn't Read Translation: 2003-2005 = Spark Age 2006-2009 = Golden Age 2010-2012 = Silver Age 2013 and on = Dark Ages

"2013 and on = Dark Ages"
No, 2013 is when the site started to get much better. 2015 is the new generation and new amazing age of ROBLOX.

| It's a matter of preference, Many of the people who claim the older age was better are really just pged in most cases. I'd say around 2012 was about the best time, ROBLOX really started developing new futuristic styles and still made their on events. |

ROBLOX wasn't even in beta testing in 2003.
It was in a private beta testing in 2004 and public beta in 2005 but never in 2003.
At most, it was a mere concept. |

Yeah it didn't even start officially in 2003 It was 2004 Looked it up and found this:
"Roblox was created by founder and co-founder David Baszucki and Erik Cassel in 2004 and officially launched into its beta version, titled "Dynablocks" in 2005. Soon, "Dynablocks" was renamed to ROBLOX and the website was officially launched in 2006. It was named after a portmanteau of the words robots and blocks."
