The new update that would remove tix would be a devastation to ROBLOX.

This update would force new NBC users to buy BC just to find a small-time outfit. I find that to be quiet unfair. There are already several restrictions to players that do not have BC, placing a restriction on buying clothes is now just taking it too far.

A 1 R$ login bonus will allow new NBC users to save up for 10 days just to find a perfect outfit [now that the price-floor is being dropped to 5 robux] and I believe that is fair.

This would also allow NBC users to continue to bring the unique to clans [cost of uniforms, as uniforms do make clans unique] and also partake in the purchase of perks at their favourite games.

I can't think of how this implementation could be so bad for roblox.

also..

"Q: If it’s about simplifying the economy why aren’t we getting a small stipend of ROBUX for continued logins?

This would make it even more attractive to create alts and bots."


I don't think people are going to make 30 different alts and waste their time logging into each one of them just to receive a 30 robux bonus than having to spend time transfer those funds one by one (through the purchase of clothing).

I have no problem with the removal of tix as long as there is a login bonus for NBC users.

The average person, no. But I think David said recently that were were over a thousand bots tied to one IP, and if you think about that, that's 1K R$ a day being farmed. That isn't somebody taking the time to login to all thousand+ accounts. That's a user who has a scripted bot doing it automatically. That's why they want to remove a login bonus. I'm OK with that.

ROBLOX should find a way through that.

It's unfair how these money hungry kids ruin roblox for nbc users.

There can easily be an anti system to counter the bots that are attached to one ip

The botting excuse is a poor way of hiding the fact that ROBLOX just wants to extract more money from us.

I run a bot to monitor a group's comments. It's received 1000 tickets over the 3+ months it's been operational. Using ROBLOX's 17:1 ticket conversion price, this is a grand total of just under 59 ROBUX.

Woohoo. A single bot can generate a day of OBC income in 3 months. Now, the captcha system stops you from rapidly logging into different accounts over and over again. I think it's a maximum of 20 successful logins in a short period of time before you need to start filling out a captcha form. This would total out a maximum of 200 tickets per day.

So at maximum capacity, a botter can earn a single day of OBC income in 5 days. That's 360 ROBUX per month for our botter. But wait! That money is useless sitting on an account that the botter never logs in to, they need to transfer it to their main.

For argument's sake, let's say the botter's main has BC. The bots can just automatically buy a shirt from him and delete it. With the 30% sales tax that comes from doing this, the botter comes out with 252 ROBUX per month.

Keep in mind, this is someone skilled enough to write a bot to do all of this - this is a very small minority of ROBLOX's players. A regular BC account earns 450 ROBUX per month. What do you think most people would rather do - spend days developing, debugging, and finding a host to run their bot for them, or just buy BC for 30 minutes of minimum wage pay?

(Yes, I am aware there are ways to have a program log in without sending a request to the web form, thus byassing the captcha. No, not even most botters have the technical knowledge to implement such a system. Your 1000 bot IP probably used this method. He's an outlier, not the norm.)

"money hungry kids ruined it for nbcers"

Oh, quit victimizing yourselves. You act as if NBC are the only ones who made any utilization of tickets for anything.

It's about more than just the bots anyways. They want people to actively participate in the game too, not just log in, claim some free money, then log off. All bots aside, it was still creating inflation anyways and 1 r$ a day would be even worse.

"How is this a WNTS?"

From the WNTS:
"• FREE ROBUX FOR EVERYONE!!! (This includes raffles, contests, lotteries, giveaways, scavenger hunts for tix, etc.)"
"• More rights for NBC/fewer privileges for BC. (This includes "more/less tix or robux", "more/fewer places", etc.)"

lmao

I also hope that they'd give 1R$ for every ten visits of a game.
That's pretty much the point why I'm still staying in ROBLOX.

The 1000 plus accounts tied to one IP is, as other posters have stated, an outlier. A fluke. Not the norm. Assuming that currency farming is as large of a problem as it is presented is a logical fallacy (Half-Truth, Hasty Generalization. Just because this and that player currency farms, it does not mean the rest of the players currency farm as well). Of the millions of people who played or are playing ROBLOX, only a tiny minority have participated in creating bots to farm currency or manually farm it through the use of alts.

If ROBLOX wishes to remove tickets, then I will support it if players are given a daily stipend of one ROBUX a day. This will quell any community, at least the majority of, backlash. If ROBLOX did want to prevent Bots from farming currency then they could simply investigate accounts that are suspected of being bots and shut them down if they are proven to indeed be farm bots.

The 1 ROBUX a day stipend would lower the amount of time spent saving for a full out fit from 20 days to 10 days. This would be beneficial to any group which has a standard uniform and to the average ROBLOX Player who actively participate in clothing purchases.

The only thing that urked me is that ROBLOX does not, or rarely engages in community interests. For example, despite enormous community backlash to the price floor, ROBLOX kept it though lowering it to 10 ROBUX and 100 Tickets for a shirt or pants. Maybe this time around, ROBLOX will take into consideration community feedback and either add the 1 ROBUX a day for NBC Players or maintain the current system of 10 tickets a day.

I support that.

In the grand scheme of things, R$1 is pocket change, but it can mean a lot to NBCs.

I agree that the one robux would cause inflation, and attract bots. But I like the system of limited logins and locking accounts. Why would someone login to more than, say, five accounts? They could make the game lock-up, like most accounts on the Internet.

Now on to my main problem with the removal of tickets; My issue is that it takes away all opportunity to earn/get free currency. This does not encourage people to play the game. It would remove bots, but it also will remove thousands of players due to quitting. And then they have 'three temporary gifts' which if I am correct, will be three cheap hats, simply there to soften the blow of removing tickets. It is such a pathetic cover-up.

My solution is a system that would monitor activity on ROBLOX, such as playing games, posting on groups, and the like. There would be a cap of two, or perhaps three. To prevent bots, it would not count the time standing still over five minutes. These combined factors would make the maximum 15 robux in a short time; the same as a single day of BC. Also, they could have some contests to earn small amounts of robux(10-20).

All-combined, I think these solutions would make removing tickets much better.
