First off.To clear up things.Roblox is a company,they pay their workers,and they need to pay to keep roblox up.So before you start saying "roblox is greedy" they need the money.
Removing tickets is a good idea.Why?Because first off,roblox rarely even made ticket hats unless they were sponsored or for an event.Also,this will benefit the devs to,how?Because developers can now make hats and gear,so they get money from that.So they will sort of get more money then they have from games.Now,heres where you have to think as a company owner.Roblox is a free game,it is not forcing you to buy any types of bc or roblox.BUT,roblox is trying to persuade you to get bc and robux.And literally every game company wants you to buy upgrades/benefits.So with removing tickets,roblox is just trying to limit what nbc has,why?To persuade you to get builder club,it is not forcing you to get builders club,just trying to persuade you telling you "hey,if you buy this and that,you can have this!"Now,roblox is not taking away anything from you,they are just taking away a currency.Anyways,think of other online games,they have special benefits that you have to pay to get better things.But here's where the good things are.Roblox is making free clothes and hats for nbc,to give them basics for roblox.Roblox has also made a few free packages.Roblox isnt just going to give nbc everything,no.You have to pay for that.
That is my rant.

Horrible argument, and I'll just destroy it in 1-2 sentences.

This is directly from the blog about TIX today:

"Q: Is ROBLOX in financial trouble?

We are profitable and will be hiring 40+ additional employees in 2016, 100% supported by our profits."

If ROBLOX is profitable as it is, to where they are going to hire 40+ employees this year, how will removing tix help the "dying game" as you were basically calling it.


Sit down.

I feel it is very much the circumstances surrounding the removal of them. Tix as a whole have felt dead for a long time. I personally feel the removal of them is fine, but I feel they are going it about the wrong way. In a way, it can screw things up further.

The most glaring issue is the removal of any real way of getting currency as a NBC without entering the commercial field of Roblox. This has been escalating further and further. Now things like not just clothing, but gamepasses and such cannot be bought. Yes, there will be achievements.

The way they word this system seems very strange though. What will it reward? It's not going to be an easy system to implement, and it may end up being like this:

Get 100 visits
Login 300 Times

Also, I feel Roblox has had a hard time implementing certain features like achievements. The Roblox Badges were suppose to be kind of like achievements, but those are basically dead now with there only being like 8. The clan point system was another try, and it ultimately failed.

Finally, I feel this will make game developers MORE in line to do greedy practices. Back before DevEx there was no way to earn money by making games on Roblox. Because of this, they were designed without micro transactions and such. Nowadays, a lot of developers make games to earn profit. Again, there is no problem with that.

However, that is a huge issue of getting too greedy. Back then, VIP was probably 10-100 tix. Something like 100 robux VIP was considered high. Now, 500-1k is considered normal. Also, games have systems where you can buy currency, kind of like a mobile game... This issue will get WORSE once this is implemented.

Tix were still a part of the currency some developers make, and with that area closed, they will probably raise gamepasses as well. This means more micro transactions that maybe are even more expensive.

It doesn't help the NBC people don't get to buy any. I feel the issue surrounding the tix removal is pretty big, and can change the Roblox economy for worse..

Yes, then so why not do positive updates, or bug fixes, instead of cheap dirt tactics to gain an easy penny. I believe in lassez-faire economics, as well as being a Conservative, but there is a difference between gaining money and being greedy. What could they be working on that costs millions of dollars?

If you do not know what goes on, even after it is mentioned they are doing very well directly from ROBLOX themselves, you shouldn't have made this thread sucking up to the moderators when this doesn't benefit the community.

The people that can't afford purchasing robux or builders club and still want to have a customized avatar, don't like this update. There are lots of these individuals, including myself. I wouldn't mind it, but I need r$25 to get a game I want when it comes out, and now I can't get it because I don't get +1 tix from a visit.
