Sure roblox has SOME free stuff but NBCers can't get what they actually want. Sure, you may say "Just buy BC" some of us can't afford it or their parents say no. I mean, just give NBCers robux for tasks they complete. I'm not trying to be rude if you think i am, and roblox, have real people look at this. So the bots don't think it's "Spam" or "Hate Speech" and please, if you can, reply to this.

The thing is there giving you there project for free, and your not entitled to anything.

Your lucky to even get free sponsored items, and you know why paying users get rewards? Because they give them money.

An nbc player with adblock on generates them nothing, so why should they care?

Yes there could be less restrictions, but what have we done to earn it exactly?

There's actually a right saying everyone should be treated equally, sponsored items...NO, nobody actually buys them to wear them, and you BCs get everything sure you said "you know why paying users get rewards? Because they give them money." Yet we're the people who CAN'T pay. "Your lucky to even get free sponsored items" we are the bottom of roblox, you'll find YOUR lucky to get what YOU have.

NBC's are actually one of the sources of roblox's income due to ad revenue. They are roblox's foundation. I support.

@Russia

Actually, if kids weren't as lazy as they are now, they could just mow a lawn, watch someone's pet or babysit. They would earn 10-20 dollars for about 3 hours of work. $20 is about 4 months of regular BC. Just hand it to their parents and say, "Can I have BC on Roblox?" Most likely, they would say yes because not only did their child earn the money, they are humans too. People have compassion.

I don't mean allowance, I mean actually going and knocking on people's doors. Just walk around the neighborhood and say, "Hey, can I mow your lawn? It looks pretty long and I need a little extra cash." Sure, it may be awkward at first, but if you keep mowing their lawn it will be a quick and easy thing to do.

Hey is ROBLOX about your looks? Is ROBLOX about buying hats? ROBLOX is a site where you could play games and chat to people and make friends.

@Marblox Most of the community judge's you by your looks.It has been proved. And still there's some people under 13 that can't go ask to do something for someone. Sure they may do some jobs at their own house but i'll highly doubt they'll have a credit card.

(The Only Reason I Didn't reply a while ago is because this is not my main)

Why do they need a credit card? They just walk up to a house across the street, ask if they could do a few small jobs, and once they do those jobs, get paid in cash. Then they go home, hand that cash to their parent and say, "I want BC."
Hey, it is what I do.

"An nbc player with adblock on generates them nothing, so why should they care?"

Lol people still think this? Have they not heard of CPM advertising?

ROBLOX makes like 50k off of traffic alone, and it comes from all players. NBCs are more important simply because they are and always will be the majority.

This idea is still nonsense though.

ROblox doesn't owe you anything just because your parents won't buy you BC. Also saying "NBC should have some free stuff" I suggest trying one of the free face, hats, packages, shirts, pants, or one of the 64 colors you are offered.

Also consider that their 50k per day for traffic is just on their website. They still have XBOX. Why do people assume ROBLOX is struggling for money?

I mean they are slowly losing traffic on their website (their traffic yearly revenue is down 1 million compared to 2014 because of the shrinking website playerbase) but they aren't hurting for money especially because of XBOX ONE and mobile. Of course they aren't doing that good for a company that just expanded to console and mobile, but all players generate income, and NBCers matter to them because they are most of their playerbase and most of their traffic income and CPM and sponsorship incentive, not to mention they motivate developers to actually build games in the first place.

Sorry I guess I'm just annoyed by the "NBCLivesDon'tMatter" mentality, when everything says otherwise. Still, no support this idea is naive.

Wait for sales.

I know I sound insensitive being a BC and all but, I once was like you too. I paid 130 robux this sale. Approximately worth 2 dollars. I made a new outfit and I am content.

You don't have to go based off of what other people judge.

You like your outfit wear it.

An outfit for me on average costs around 200 robux. Cheap enough that you could earn it like the guy said above by doing simple chores.

Traffic alone? This is like a friend came to my house and without knowledge gave me for example a dollar even though they did not lose one.

How is this possible? Ads? Barely anyone clicks outside ads. And ROBLOX gets money from ads CLICKED, not VIEWED.

@Magic

It's called CPM advertising.

There are tons of CPM ad companies that try to find the websites with decent traffic so they can put CPM ads on their site. And companies all over (not just Internet companies) pay these guys for their ad influence.

CPM means cost per a thousand impressions, which means CPM ad companies pay them per every 1,000 hits on their website because they get to put their ads all over their website. Adblock's affect is minimal, because it doesn't affect the contract.

CPM ads are all over. Have you ever seen an ad that seemed inappropriate for ROBLOX? Or seen an ad on ROBLOX you see on every site? That was more than likely a CPM ad.

So, no, not all ads depend on being "clicked" I don't even know how people got such a dumb idea. If that were true, no one would make any money off of ads, because next to no one actually clicks ads. And almost 35% of ROBLOX's revenue in 2014 came from traffic income, so would you care to explain that if traffic doesn't make ROBLOX money?

Also consider the fact that ROBLOX's traffic is the reason they are targeted by sponsorships and developers, which is the other source of ROBLOX's income. Everything is decided by traffic.

Read "The Movement" by goldfishmemories. The thread is deleted, but the text was saved by people, like ruin3ds. You can ask them for it. It will explain this in better detail, and has all the sources.
