Right, people have threatened to DDoS attack if roblox removes tix, some people threaten to leave, and overall there is alot of backlash. Roblox removing tix will only cause harm, some people on roblox will leave, and some of them are earning roblox, $$$, and roblox needs quite alot of $$$ to function. Currently they are making a profit, but removing tix will make some people leave,=less $$$, plus people will think roblox is greedy, which at this point, I'm wondering that as well. The reasons for removal of tix posted on the blog are bad,
"There will no longer be any Ticket bonus for logging in daily. As our platform has matured, we believe the reason to come to ROBLOX should be the desire to experience incredible things with your friends. We do not want to incentivize people to “check in” every day." So pretty much now, they want you playing with friends 24/7, not you know, buying clothes your friends may have made, or other stuff you may like?
"For those of you who are clothing developers, we believe that over time you will have a richer opportunity as we expand our catalog to a next generation avatar. We will be lowering the ROBUX price floor on shirts and pants to help increase the volume of sales of these items for our creators. We have a roadmap for the future of avatars on ROBLOX, and as these new features roll out, new opportunities for clothing designers will follow, making the catalog more robust and high quality." No idea how making it so some people can buy clothes will add quality, and unless we earn 1 robux a day, for alot of NBCs, lowering the price floor won't help, as they will have no money.
"There is another benefit to removing tickets, and that is it removes the incentive to create alt accounts. We don’t believe it makes sense to provide a currency bonus to having multiple accounts, as this drives behavior that is not at the core of ROBLOX." Finally, they made a good point.
"Our catalog is going through a similar expansion over the next year, as we begin to allow ROBLOX developers to sell body parts, hats, gear, animations and other items." Once again, if NBCs don't recieve 1 daily robux, they will be broke, and guess what? They can't buy any of those.
"We are removing tickets for a number of reasons. Although familiar to many of us, they are confusing to first-time users. We believe removing tickets will simplify our product in all areas, from the UI to the catalog to user-accounting." People have talked about this before, for ANY site, someone who has never seen it before may be a bit confused about how it operates, a gaming/social site like roblox may be more confusing. When a person joins have a notification pop up explain how roblox works or even leading to a YouTube video.
"We have many things in store for the majority of ROBLOX players who do not want to become involved with the ROBUX economy. In the catalog, we intend to provide more free items, so that avatar customization without ROBUX continues to be creative and rich. Today, we have introduced two free packages for your character. Going forward, we will feature the work of top creators in the community as we migrate to a fully community driven catalog." Unless your going to start making shirts and pants, people need daily tix/robux to buy it, unles you want green nak.ed people running around. |

| LOL, how would one know if something is a bad idea if they don't even read it so they may understand what its about and the points made? Thats like me calling something ugly with having a very vague description of what it looks like, something like (it's blue). |

| If all ideas on S&I are bad then why are you here, to waste your time you could be, oh I don't know, doing something productive, instead of invading peoples forums and calling there idea bad when you won't even read it? |

I've said it before, and I will say it again. Make the email a forced requirement to be able to sign up on Roblox. Also, make only one email to be used per account.
This will reduce the amount of ALTs drastically.
If Roblox wanted to remove bots, they would add a captcha.
They are obviously doing this for one reason. Money. There are so many ways they could have fixed most of the problems that they mentioned without removing tix. |

| Indeed, above. Good points, removal of tix will bring them plenty of money. |

I support this.
However, just like the Friends and Followers update, devhunts, new interface etc, this is here to stay.
They're probably gonna turn a blind eye to this, too. |

why is everyone supposing you would get "1 rb a day" when you log-in?
>>roblox isn't stupid. they have the wits to even create a game like this, which is super complex<<
roblox would probably make it 5 rb - 10 rb max, so NBCs can buy stuff..
and you cant say roblox is "greedy" even if you get 1 rb log-in stuff, money for roblox is very important.
roblox has workers to pay, sites to keep up, taxes (even for the workers [water, electricity, etc]), etc.
give them a break they're not "greedy". |

Name Change costs 1000 Robux, many of us were complaining that it was set to high, especially for those who chose a bad name when they first joined Roblox years ago. But Roblox did not change it the price. Now I know heaps of people who have ran out of Roblox because of changing their names too much times.
But wait. Did you see that?
If we rotate 420 degrees, we can clearly see the details.
Tix is getting removed. Daily bonuses are getting removed. Place income is getting removed.
Was this Roblox's plan all along?
To dry us clean of Robux so that we would have to buy more to give them money?
Is this part of the Pyramid Eye's plan?
Is this all just one big plot to wipe out humanity?

| What I'm really hoping if they'd remove tix is at least to bring back gaining robux from place visits, maybe 1 robux per 10 visit, so smaller developers can actually generate a profit |
