I've been on Roblox for about 6 years now, and in that time i've learnt a lot of things about the ways of the system, and games and such and such. Personally, I preferred it back when we had tickets to spend on silly clothing, and hats. I know this change has only just been made and people are still getting used to it, but as soon as a new person makes an account they're going to be introduced to "Hey, we want your money for Robux and Builders Club, even though in the adverts we say we're FREE!" Well, clearly they're not now. They've erased the option of tickets completely, and we can't even buy shirts/t-shirts without spending real money.

Fair, a lot of people playing this game have their own credit cards. But the majority of this game's "AUDIENCE" is children, who are trying to have fun and dress up their characters the way they want without having to ask their parents if they can borrow their credit card and spend hard earned cash, when like 5 months ago we could use our tickets to buy t-shirts that were supporting things and funny hats, and t-shirts and pants but now we can't even get them without spending or getting a hold of someone's credit card.

Yes, I have spent money on Roblox. But that was back in like 2010 when my parents bought me it as a gift, and in all honesty back then it was great, because i could also use my tickets to buy clothes, pants, hats, items, everything almost. Don't bother trying to argue my point unless you have valid points that I will take into consideration. I understand Roblox will get more money on their behalf of people purchasing Robux, and such and it's a way for creators to earn more also. But to be a creator you have to buy Builders Club, again, more money.

This comes across as Roblox trying to rob more money off children, and vulnerable people. Sure, that's not how they meant it. But you literally can't look good, or do anything without spending money on the site. Before it was free, and you could buy things with tickets you earned every month and it was a great way to bump up your character and it was also a great way to buy shirts as people created them to support things, or for VIP access, and etc.

Again, I understand all the great points about Robux being the only currency, and I understand it's only online and such and such. But it's all about the audience, and who it's aimed towards, and this site is simply aimed towards vulnerable children. If their parents don't want them spending money online, yet Roblox is showing that you can only do all the fun things with spending some money. And yes, I agree it's cheap for a couple of Robux, but that's not the point.

I stand by my point, and will not change my view. Feel free to agree/disagree everyone's entitled to an opinion, but please do not argue in the comments, you can do that elsewhere and such. I will reply as soon as I can if you make some points, or whatever.

Before you comment "It's just happened" or "You make it sound like it's a super bad thing" or "You're just a child" or "Clearly you're just poor." None of those things are valid, think before you comment I will only reply to people who actually suggest points, or state facts considering I don't want un-wanted banter on this post as that's not what it's here for.

Thanks for reading ~

"Roblox trying to rob more money off children, and vulnerable people."

(BIG FACEPALM) Is this bait? They are not forcing you pay robux and BC.

I understand that, and that's not how it was meant to sound. I meant it in a way of Children wanting to dress up their characters, and seeing it cost money. Meaning they have to pay to do something fun with their 'avatars'. I'm not saying they're being forced, but I'm saying it'd be a lot easier if tickets were around so they could do it freely, when they're probably not even going to play roblox again in a couple of years.

Do you understand economy? Also there's nothing on roblox that tries to make you so addicted that makes you pay money on roblox.

Yes, but you're not thinking from a childs mind. They will see something they want and will ask their parents for it, it's quite simple to imagine. Most kids now days, see something that interests them and want it and they literally can't access it without spending/buying robux.
