There was a huge problem with Tickets, and I don't think people realize how severe it is.
Basically, because everyone gets 10 tickets a day for free with no questions asked, some accounts are getting phished, and then they quietly get farmed.
People would typically do this by writing bots that make a phished user log in and spend their daily 10 tickets on several random items in a group's store, during random times of day, allowing people to illegitimately monopolize the tickets of users, in a way that is nearly impossible to detect as legitimate or not.
Roblox has been thinking about removing Tickets for a long time, considering how little of use they actually are at this point, but they haven't been able to because you guys keep harassing them every time they go through with decisions like this.

@Clone Yep,just tryna stop people from spamming bring back tix.
And,It's either ROBLOX existing or ROBLOX Dead. They removed tix because they PAY for all the tix going into accounts.
ROBLOX gets a user every three seconds.
And ROBLOX at least pays 100,000,000 dollars a day to give all users tix. |

I feel that they should have at least -let users still receive place revenue with ROBUX -convert TIX hats to robux

they cannot let users receive place revenue with that because it would promote botting. it says it in the blog post at the Q & A. |

Well what about the small devs. Now to make robux you need gps and devproducts. As a small dev I won't get much sales. They couldve at least made it so you get robux per visit.
That's a very nice hat you got there. |

Why Tix is being Removed:
Roblox wishes there to only be Robux, As Robux is only buyable, newer accounts will never develope unless they buy things...
Your being Scammed Essentually..
Have fun <3 |
