that's actually something i never thought about tbh
especially cus people with really nice hats usually are wealthier irl and have more money to waste on roblox

I suppose so but where the working class and lower class are lumped together and there are also exceptions like nerdy 16 year olds who work a lot and spend around 50% or more on robux

This is why the top 1% controls 90% of the wealth in america, and why we must relevel this economic catastrophe.

It doesn't take any IRL money really. Just a strong ambition to keep trading to profit...

Which I don't really understand, but on occasion I enjoy it

maybe for more rational people like you sure, but for 11 year olds getting bullied for not having virtual reality hats on a lego game is a big deal

also yeah, you're reading into the whole "robloxian of color" thing. They chose grey because nobody's skin is that color and the shade is neutral. You should be praising roblox for not making the default character any particular skin color (namely white)

@j4
I dont really understand what you are saying but this is a small problen caused by the same roots as the larger one. The wealhy.

Additionally ROC is a true thing, ever seen the grey/brow/black robloxians? Sounds like ur a little racist lol

Grey is closer to black, so they are ROC

true but my point about nerdy 16 year olds still stands except the age wouldn't be as arbitrary

So you think they should make the default character white? Is that what you're saying?

The default character should be a more neutral color, like blue. There are no blue people

You are currently debating what color your lego should start out as. You can change it, but the colors your have for the first two hours of the game totally matter.
