When tickets were first added in to Roblox, it was big thing, users were able to customize their characters, and Roblox admins would hold contests on best looking outfits. Tickets are used for non-bc members to buy items + trade it into Robux. By taking away the tickets, you take away the only way for non-bc users to get Robux and their only way to buy Robux items.

You say you're going to give out free items, but then all the users would look near enough the same, apart from the ones who buy BC so they can customize themselves and what not. You're just making it worse.

The only benefit you'll get out of this is, people spending money to get BC so they can get Robux and look different from other users, which in my opinion, is disgusting, tickets in this case are essential for non-bc users. Take away that, then you take away the first thing this site really stood for back in 2008 when tickets first came into play.

Ever since Eric passed this site has just gotten worse, the hats are terrible re-textures, the updates are up and down, and the care for non-bc users is gone. Stop being so damn greedy wanting people to buy memberships.

Now, in-case most of you say "you don't know much you've not long joined" you're wrong, I've been on here for many years, since 2011, but on various accounts.

Just one last thing, how are people that don't have a game on the front page supposed to get the new ticket items? Seems more like a BC benefit and front page benefits. Start trying to care what others think, otherwise this site won't last much longer.

my full response

I'll make a short response if you want me to.

but honestly, if they make enough hats and other items, the customization process will be diverse

Roblox doesn't really care about the 12 year old ungrateful children who go apeshiz over every update. Really, they should be happy it will take 5 days to get clothes instead of 10.

That is a big if. They've slacked in making ticket items until recently. But they've made them completely overpriced.

In your forum, I see you've only listed the pros, and not the cons. The cons are also what matters. I don't support this idea, I think it's the worst idea they've came up with in years (besides the crappy holiday events in which they were pure lazy to make a game for)

Yes, more people will buy memberships, but what about the people that can't afford one, or just don't want to waste money because they might be saving up for something else? This will completely destroy what Roblox once stood for, they've now turned into a money-greedy company only doing what they think is better for them.

Yeah some users create accounts just to get tickets and what not, but the people who don't have the bigger impact, how are users going to be able to customize their character if they take away the one thing that's mainly needed to buy the items? I'm not going to be giving any more money to Roblox, they have enough.

This also has a big affect to groups, game developers, clothe developers as they won't be getting any profit being made what so ever, how can the front game developers use DevEX without exchanging their main way of profit? This will bring Roblox near enough to its end point.

"they've now turned into a money-greedy company only doing what they think is better for them."

Ow, the edge. If you're going to insult Roblox, why do you still bother playing? I think you're just an insecure, mental teenager who wastes his time complaining about a website, like seriously, it's just updates, no need to be a big baby. You clearly haven't read the blog.

I haven't played Roblox for a while, I only come on now and then to check catalog and check stuff. If that's your way of describing someone on making a point, then that's pure childish, you only have one part of the list right, I am kind of mental, but that's due to my ADHD.

I have read the blog, I just don't support their idea at all.

Not as childish as you complaining about a website, like really? Wouldn't you rather go outside?

"I am kind of mental, but that's due to my ADHD."

Oh, sorry to hear that.

you want cons?

cons:

1. nbcers won't have a way to buy things, but they're getting free items so there's not really a problem

2. nbcers won't have a way to make ads without money, but $6 is a low price

3. nbcers won't be able to customize their character as much, yet they'll be getting free stuff, so it's not a problem

I don't see anything too bad really

What if the items are bad? What if kids DON'T or are NOT ABLE to pay 6 dollars for BC? What if parents think this site is untrustworthy?

@sparky;

I don't see how that's ROBLOX's fault.

what if I'm too poor to afford a laptop and decent internet? It's not ROBLOX's job to pay for me.

I believe you'll be able to get ROBUX from badges or achievements or something like that AND the price floor is being lowered so it will be like for every achievement is a shirt/pants or something.

"Really, they should be happy it will take 5 days to get clothes instead of 10."

Nowhere did they say NBCers will get daily R. They have to earn it through some other BS.

Some other cons I'd like to throw in:

1) Cannot use the Trade Currency to earn money.

2) RAP is lowering for almost all items. For example, I had a steady rap around $700000R and now it is $644000R. Why buy BC if this trend continues?
Although I also see, once tickets are officially removed, that the RAP of everything will skyrocket as there is no second currency to keep things in check. Basically, the entire economy will be ruined.

3) Traders have less incentive to buy BC as their RAP is lowering, and they cannot trade currency to gain money.

4) Most games will become Pay to Play, as developers will no longer receive tickets. For games as big as Phantom Forces, I don't believe it will be an issue, but for upstarting developers who want to expand their game, they need to sell things to advertise it. But then again big games like Phantom Forces, which are using DevEx for college, will monetize their game as much as possible.

5) New users can be turned away as before they earned 10 tickets and were able to use that in any way they choose, and now they earn nothing except for free things that literally EVERYONE will get. Basically they have less control over what they buy.
In addition, these new users will be turned away as more games will become Pay to Play.

6) Many of the old tickets hats are going off sale. And now that ROBLOX is actually making ticket-centered items to try and remove as many tickets as possible so the economy isn't immediately garbage, those prices are ridiculously high.

Feel free to post more, I just thought of some basic things. And there isn't any debate to this as this is the inevitable true.

I'm kind of neutral on it right now
I'm happy about the price floor, but I'm confused about how stuff is going to work (even after reading the blog post)

ROBLOX isn't going to turn back and keep tickets... even if they loose 1000 players because of this update they will give people a reason to buy BC and robux. (Which means more money for them at the end of the day. ROBLOX isn't a charity its a company).


Why you reading my siggy?

It wasn't a big thing.
People HATED Tix when it was first added.
Get your facts straight.

Alright, but both were introduced in 2007. And you can't say people hated it, especially as you are from 2012, not 2007.
