I was outraged at ROBLOX when the removed tickets, so much I joined a group and became on of the members, I was on every day posting against the ticket removal, and here is what caused ticket removal.
It started when tickets were rewarded as a prize for getting a place visit. At that time, tickets were still a decent value of currency. As time grew, more players played, and more players made games. These games came and went, which created a nice "water-cycle" of games. New ones in, old ones out. Over and over. But recently. a select few monetized games by ROBLOX have come out of the shadows, and retaken the spotlight. The first to be Phantom Forces, for an entire year about now. That grew with many other games, those game saturated, and created a pool of millions of tickets. Those caused inflation, and devalued tickets so much, to the point of removal. So, to blame anyone, blame the big devs, they caused the players who relied on their small games, the ones not corrupted by monetization and sponsorships, to become useless. Why make a game, when there is no reward? I don't get anything for my hard work. If I made a game that gets 4000 place visits a day, some of those visits may have been new players, who were interested in ROBLOX, and liked my game, and stayed here. I get no reward for those new players spending THEIR money for ROBUX. I become a tool, a tool, to attract new players. I get no reward, and, why make games, when ROBLOX makes you a tool for their income. So, all of you small game devs, NBCer game devs, shut your games down, stop ROBLOX from using your games to attract credit card stealing 5 year olds to make money. Stand with me, to halt ROBLOX from using our games for their money! |

example :
phantom forces has 63 million plays, so they would get pay in tix,
63M tix = 3.15M bux
since 80bux=1$(real money)
3.15Mbux/80=~ 40K$ |

This makes me sad. The reason why I stopped developing and went into here is for the TIX removal. This bad update is terrible enough to discourage others to stop developing.

For everyone saying that tickets were a big source of game funds. It's not. If you realize how much developer products make compared to visits, it's about 2% of total game profit for most developers, including litozinnamon, who someone quoted. |
