Greetings, people of Roblox,
I have just discovered a devastating aftermath, following the removal of Tickets from Roblox. I realized that, in the years following the removal, after the veterans have spent the last of their converted Robux, it will be solely BCs buying Gamepasses. This will come as a massive loss to many developers, as NBCs overwhelmingly outnumber BCs. There are many NBCs, like myself, that used to save up their Tickets for long periods of time, until a gamepass could be bought. Again, as NBCs outnumber BCs by a longshot, there were undoubtedly quite a few of these savers, funding developers from the shadows. I believe that, with only BCs funding developers now, the developers will begin to suffer.

I knew someone was going to say something stupid about your post, these nerds LIVE to increase their post count.

I DIDN'T EVEN WANTED TO REPLY, BUT AS SOON AS I SAW SOMEONE JUST SAY SOMETHING STUPID LIKE PIEMAN, I JUST HAD TO THROW OP A BONE.


Yeah dude, the removal of TIX will change ROBLOX.
Over the years, ROBLOX has strived to shift more and more power to the money spending members and less to the free-to-play ones.
This doesn't mean ROBLOX despises free-to-play players, heck, the only reason their game is so sucesful is BECAUSE of NBCs. If ROBLOX was a subscription based game from the get-go, it would be dead almost ten years ago.

So yes, NBCs will lose more power over the game, whilst being still perfectly free to participate in the community and the game itself.

It's also very sad that in a few days I'm going to be stuck with my current ROBUX, but I feel like this is a smart move on the part of ROBLOX, I'm starting to get a mighty thirst to spend real life money in the game...

I doubt that... How long would it take you to save up for a game pass? And when you buy it, it probably would be the cheapest one because it takes forever to save up tix. So I highly doubt that they will be at a loss.

@Adam, true, it takes a very long time to save up Tix, but every day you get a login bonus, so if you logged in for 34 straight days, you'd have enough for a 20 R$ gamepass. Now, if 1,000 NBCs are committed enough to do this, they have together just saved up 20K R$ for buying gamepasses, or clothes... all in just 34 days. Think about that.

You are definitely right on the point that it will soon be BC soley buying gamepasses. It is honestly a sad turn of events.

Another thing that is going to die off with Tickets, most unfortunately, is the group uniform. Clans/groups won't have any identity anymore.

@Crow, ikr. I had a showcase (albeit very lame) that earned about 7-10 visits per day. It nearly doubled my income, and allowed me to save up for items much faster.
