| I see you haven't replied to my previous response. I guess that means you're admitting that this is a stupid idea and that you're a naïve little bean. |

Stop trying to make the original poster change the theory the original poster believes in. As long as you have not got any absolute evidence your theory ONLY MIGHT be a fact. |

"That's a lie. Are you new to S&I?" Sure, it could be a lie. And it depends how you define the word "new". I joined about a few weeks ago, but I'm an active forumer.
"That's exactly what they don't want. You can have power over the executives' decisions when you work for Roblox. Users do absolutely nothing to run the company, so why would Roblox ever give them a say in their company's future?" I said they would SLIGHTLY lose some power. Roblox makes the decisions, the Roblox Decision Team approves or denies it. We kinda do run the company. We the Robloxians make the games that other Robloxians play. Without us, Roblox would be nothing. Did the president of the USA think that: oh. I don't want a House of Representatives because I would slightly lose some power (and I know Roblox is a company, not a country, but it still has the same concept.)
"Too bad you don't." Too bad you don't know if I own a company called or not. And I'm excellent in business, anyway.
"Yeah, it does. If sales were going down, they would listen to our sales by reading S&I. Obviously sales are not down." Well, I am pretty sure Roblox is making the big bucks, but it doesn't hurt to improve the game.
"Not necessarily. I'm not sure if you're familiar with the term "monopoly" (not that it applies here). Read my response below.
"Yes. AT&T in the 1900s. Wireless subscribers had no choice but to but to buy from AT&T because there was no competition (aka monopoly). Look it up." I've looked it up. During the 1900s there was no competition. But now it's 2016, and Roblox is in an advanced game industry. So if you think about, Roblox does have competition! I just want to make sure that Robloxians stay with Roblox. There are other MMO games in the world, too, just so you know.

| So for every problem with this idea brings, I've made a solution. So is there any more flaws you will mention? Post them on this thread. |

| This idea is pretty flawless, or it might have a few minor flaws. If there were flaws, they're probably not going to change the entire game. If there are flaws, then post them. |

Why do not you make a new thread instead(Linking to the original would also be OK.)? |

"We kinda do run the company." We do not run Roblox.
"Did the president of the USA think that: oh. I don't want a House of Representatives because I would slightly lose some power" You said it yourself. Roblox is a company, not a country. And the United States runs under a constitution. Roblox, a private company, does not.
"Too bad you don't know if I own a company called or not. And I'm excellent in business, anyway." Don't stoop to that level just to try to make a point.
"Well, I am pretty sure Roblox is making the big bucks, but it doesn't hurt to improve the game." In the executives' eyes, if Roblox is making the big bucks, there is no point in "improving" the game in a way that will cause them to lose control of their own creation.
"But now it's 2016, and Roblox is in an advanced game industry. So if you think about, Roblox does have competition!" Remember, you're the one who said, ""Think about it, was there ever a time that customers were unhappy with the product they're purchasing and the company that makes the products are wealthy?" (check page 6)
"So if you think about, Roblox does have competition!" Understand that nothing will change. If you don't like that, you can leave Roblox since it does have competition.
"This idea is pretty flawless" Far from that, sweetheart. |

"We do not run Roblox." Did you read the paragraph thoroughly? If Roblox had no players, it would be nothing, because we Robloxians make the games and Roblox just makes updates and earns money (no offense, Roblox).
"You said it yourself. Roblox is a company, not a country. And the United States runs under a constitution. Roblox, a private company, does not." Isn't the Roblox Code of Conduct like a constitution? Plus, I said the President scenario had the same concept. Did you not read that part?
"Don't stoop to that level to make a point." Do you expect me to respond to that? Well, if you did, fine, you will get a response. I don't own a company, but I plan to in the future. People trust me for advertising, which makes me a trustable soon to be businessman.
"In the executives' eyes, if Roblox is making big bucks, there is no point in "improving" the game to the game in a way that will cause them to lose control of their creation." Steve Jobs didn't like the fact that someone else was telling him what to do, but he got fired anyway. Again, two different people, but same concept. Roblox has multiple reasons to be in business, and one of them is making money. Launching this idea as an update, could increase their sales. More money for Roblox. They will not lose a lot of control over their game. Only big updates that alter the entire gameplay experience will be approved or rejected by the Roblox Decision Team. Small updates like moving an icon to somewhere else is up to Roblox. Roblox will make TRUCKLOADS of cash, because Robloxians will want to play Roblox more, and that increases the chance of them buying Robux and/or Builders Club. I don't know why Roblox would reject an idea that would make them more money.
"Remember you're the one who said," "Think about it was there ever a time that customers were unhappy with the product they're purchasing and the company that makes them are wealthy? (check page 6) I don't know what that has to do with competition and game industry. The term "monopoly" in the game industry does not exist. Some customers are happy with Roblox. "Understand that nothing will change. If you don't like that, you can leave Roblox since it does have competition." I never said I would leave Roblox. If I didn't like the game, I would've never suggested an idea that I thought was good. Why would you even say that if it doesn't support your idea
So you have two options here: keep arguing or admit my idea is good. Select one.

Here are my thoughts along with replies that are more than likely to occur.
And when someone finds out a way to exploit the vote system? Then everything will be in the hands of exploiters.
> The security will eventually get patched
Just like games, exploiters find new loopholes in old security systems. It's just going to keep happening. Furthermore, you wouldn't even need exploiters. All you would need are massive groups/clans on Roblox influencing the voting opinions of their members, and you have instant bias.
> But groups/clans are also a part of the community, so it still counts
Yeah, it obviously still counts, but that doesn't mean that it isn't biased. And if you're not concerned about bias, what's the point of creating the system?
In the end, it's a good idea on paper but a bad one in practice. I've read all of your replies to people's concerns and complaints, but I don't think it's the right path for Roblox. In the end, it's not in your hands. I'm sure you'll continue to push for this, but dedication only gets you so far. |

It does not work like this, after arguing about everything cyber squat's(had to separate) opinion might not change. |

Also roblox is a company, not a freedom land, ROBLOX owns ROBLOX.
