I know a lot of you have been complaining about ROBLOX's halloween event. But I'm not going to argue that. You actually have the right to complain. According to 4Sci's twitter post, Davidii, the creator of the halloween event, stated that he didn't have any choice but to go along with what Nerf told him to do. His exact words:
"You know, it's a funny story. I went into it expecting to save ROBLOX events too, but at every turn I wanted to add in something interesting or unique, it would run by Nerf and they would say no. They made me use only one weapon. They made me use only one type of ammunition. They vetoed two of the three maps we were planning to use. They would only let us make zombies that were green, and they made us put pumpkins on their heads. I didn't get the time to debug the main game because I was too busy jumping through hoops for Nerf and taking out stuff I'd spent time on."
In conclusion, it's neither ROBLOX's fault, nor Davidii's fault, but Nerf's fault.

does that mean we can't shoot people in their eyes without losing points?

First, Davidii stated that it was NOT his fault, although that may be unclear for people under the age of 13, as he uses advanced grammar. Sorry, not trying to be rude with that, but it's true. Second, please don't advertise on a forum not related to groups.

| I obviously know why ROBLOX took Nerf's orders, and done what they wanted, but to be honest, I feel like ROBLOX should do whatever they want. It's not like Nerf knows how this whole event thing works. Like, ROBLOX owns this game, so shouldn't that give him the right to do what he wants with this Nerf event?? I think sometimes that ROBLOX should be given more of an option on what to do on these sponsored events. |

After what they did with previous events, I am not surprised. But still...
The Egg Hunt and many other events were totally made by developers, ROBLOX just found a bunch of famous (and not-so-famous) developers and told them "Yo, make a place for this event and we'll get you some bling bling"
It was cool the first times they did it, like in the 2014 Summer Games or the 2014 Thanksgiving event. (Let's just not talk about the horrific minion event)
But when they picked up the Egg Hunt and turned it into that lazy excuse for a game? Shame!
I honestly thought that, after all those horrible events (The only good one I remember was Hallow's Eve 2014) they would give us something good. But no. What is even worse than an event made by developer kids? A game uniquely made to sponsor toys for kids. (I still like Nerf doe)
However,I can understand that owning a company such as ROBLOX requires money to support it, but this was too much. And I am not saying "You shouldn't have done it", I am saying "Please, don't do it again".
I still believe in you guys at ROBLOX HQ, I hope the contract with Nerf was worth it.

@Nintendo Sorry if I sound rude, but I did this so people could know what was up with the ROBLOX event. I didn't even put in much effort; all I did was explain why they did so and put the message in between. Also, it says a lot that you joined in 2015 and are criticizing people's forums, while you probably were about to rant on the ROBLOX event until you saw this forum. Then you ranted on IT, and for no good reason too.
