I joined in 2011. I used to play on another account, that's why it says I joined in 2013.
I remember Survive the Disasters was popular, so was obby's, hide and seek, and many more. I remember the green pad you could use to walk around and cheat on invisible paths. I remember how bad quality roblox was. I remember how everyone used 2.0s. I remember when a lot of old rare items came out. I remember when outfits were 2 robux or 10 tix. I remember getting 10 tix everyday, and how I would save them up to try and get Golden or Cinnamon hair, but I would never get there.
I later quit in December 2012, because I was like 10 and I was playing games like MM1, and my parents thought it was too violent. I'm surprised they made me quit then, one of the first games I ever played was Camping with Killers Roblox used to be such an unknown game. The most popular game had maybe 700########ople playing. I remember the old layout, when you would see BC games and wish you had BC so you could be cool and hang with them.

I joined again in 2013, and was astonished to see how many changes there was. It was cool, but I didn't enjoy it as much. I continued playing.
Now in late 2016, I am realizing this. Roblox is dying slowly. Vine died, So did club penguin, and minecraft is dying, too. Roblox is going downhill. They no longer listen to what we want. They assume what we want. I don't like all these "sponsorships" and how they removed tix. Now NBC's are FORCED to buy robux if they want something. Roblox as a company, used to care about their players. They used to hang out with the community. I remember being in the same game as ROBLOX. I never see him ingame anymore. Roblox, I know money is important, but so are your players. At this rate of things your getting rid of, ROBLOX will be dead by 2018. Roblox is at the peak of its height with all the big gamers playing, but I don't think it will be forever. If ROBLOX wants to get back on track, pay attention to your forum. Pay attention to reportings. People can go scam all they want, yet they never get banned, yet if someone makes an innapropriate game, they get banned right away.
DO you ever look in comments of games? They are FULL of people saying "go to ################ to get free robux!!" Those are fake, and so annoying. I don't want to see those. If you joined years ago, you maybe saw 1 a week, but not crazy everywhere.


It's the last choice you have. You have to listen to what we want to see in the game. Assuming things won't get you anywhere. Scams are something people should be banned for, not for making a copyrighted group cover. What about when people bully other kids? I never see them get banned, yet you suspend me for saying " i like shoes."


xx i'm sorry for my rant im just really fed up with all of this

Have you ever stepped back and though its not them dying but you growing out of them?

Peoples tastes change over time, which can be attributed to a number of factors....

... and then there are trolls, they live and breath in all games, and sadly todays generations are far more confident at a "no repercussion" things they do on the internet .... irregardless of the medium

Disagree on certain things but Support!

When removing TIX they literally only thought about game developers, as not everyone has the time and skill to make a front-page game.

Another reason?

Bots.

People would make accounts and play their own game, increasing their 10 Tix per day to 11, and as they keep doing this, 12, ### ### ### ### ###.

Being in the same game as ROBLOX? That isn't really possible as ROBLOX is just a bot used by admins for hats and other things. You might've seen admins, but I highly doubt you'd see the actual creator of ROBLOX playing.

As for the comments, there's nothing they can do about it. They removed comments on games and hats, but that's all they can really even do.

Off topic:
I do agree on the last part about I like shoes. I remember being warned for simply saying "How stupid can you get?" While there are others calling people things that they can't stop themselves from being. (I hope you understand what I mean as I'm not trying to get warned here.)

What I'm saying about ROBLOX being in game, he used to actually play, even if it was a mod, he would still talk to us and ask what we want to see in game. And the chat filter is stupid. Why are you blocking numbers.. :l

Oh ya that "I remember being in the same game as ROBLOX" part is weird too.
Roblox for the most part never plays any games it's an account used for uploading hats and other items.

I'm pretty convinced the part of you being around pre-2013 is made up.

calm down.
all roblox did was remove the ability to get 2 hairs. in this update they also removed comments. you wouldnt pay attention because your so biased against roblox, and you believe that "the corporation is evil!1!!11!" and you think that roblox is trying to ruin everything. why dont you try to be the ceo of a multimilliom dollar corporation? since you think its so easy. your all putting WAY too much stress on them. their devs, at heart. they made an update that they think is effective, while yes, there are things that could have been better thought out, they made an update, and you have to put on your big girl pants and deal with it.


Triumphion, the Triumphant one.

"I remember Survive the Disasters was popular, so was obby's, hide and seek, and many more"

you can still do all of those.

"I remember how bad quality roblox was"

Wait, so you are saying you want ROBLOX to be bad quality? I think you have mental disabilities.

" I remember the old layout, when you would see BC games and wish you had BC so you could be cool and hang with them. "
Wait, so later on in this post you are complaining about how everything requires BC, but here you are saying you liked everything being BC only?

"Now NBC's are FORCED to buy robux if they want something"

Or they could earn their robux in the tons of ways ROBLOX has put out for them

"They no longer listen to what we want'
Actually, they never did. Please tell me ONE time they listened to users' ideas, and added them to the game. JUST ONCE.

" I remember being in the same game as ROBLOX"

haha, that is a lie. ROBLOX is a bot account for uploading content you froob.

" At this rate of things your getting rid of, ROBLOX will be dead by 2018."

What do you mean "getting rid of" literally, the only thing I can think of them getting rid oof in the past years is Personal servers, old terrain ( Which were both replaced ) and tickets ( which was a good thing )

"People can go scam all they want, yet they never get banned"

Are you stupid? ROBLOX listens to reports MORE now, in fact I report scammers all the time and they get banned. Like, look at all these scam games I got deleted

And tons more.

I actually think you are just an idiot.

Why are you arguing against a beginning paragraph when all it's doing is explaining what they remembered on Roblox? By this time with all of these complaints it's easy to tell that their is some turbulation in the community.

"Why are you arguing against a beginning paragraph when all it's doing is explaining what they remembered on Roblox?"

Because the beginning paragraph is completely fabricated and op is trying to prove a point with it.

For example take this part that that isn't in the first paragraph:

"Roblox as a company, used to care about their players."

This and a lot of other things rely on the beginning paragraph and since it's faked (unless op provides an explanation for all the odd things about it) this whole thread seems like a waste of time.

ROBLOX isn't really "growing." It's expanding over its problems. The only reason it's "growing" is because they've gotten YouTube gamers to play ROBLOX games and their expansions to mobile and console are out of the beta stages.

Yes there's way more players. Yes ROBLOX's site makes $9 million more yearly now than it did in 2014 (its site, not BLOXcon, merchandise and purchases), but more players doesn't always mean better game. Forced profits are not better than natural gains. And just because there's a higher net amount of players doesn't mean there aren't a decent amount of players leaving, and even with the growth of players that still isn't very impressive considering that they've just gone to XBOX LIVE.

But thanks to more players there are now way more freemium players than premium players, and thanks to the new economy model, the premiums have to support the economy pretty much by themselves and they're being spread too thin. There is too big of a rift between the people with R$ and the people without it -- advanced builders make it impossible to every freemium player to compete for the R$ because almost all of the players only play a few hundred to a thousand places out of the millions no matter how good the rest of them are not to mention sales tax difficulties, clothing sales and group payouts are worthless to most of the playerbase because R$ is more scarce than ever now that the playerbase is getting larger, and slowly the freemium population is becoming desensitized to the economy. The majority of these new players and old gen players either leave or never spend ANYTHING because they can't see how it's worth it, making the new standard.

This would seem good, but ROBLOX is expanding and spreading its resources way too thin at once so its inner problems don't look as bad instead of actually fixing them. Now they have to compete with the rest of the market. ROBLOX Studio is now so industrialized it could compete with platforms like Unity, ROBLOX is now competing with games like it on XBOX, ROBLOX is now competing with games like it on mobile all at the same time with their money, sponsorships, etc. That's why their product is more important than ever, and as you can see from the turbulence in the community since 2013 and the controversy, it's clearly faltering in that irreplaceable aspect.

When ROBLOX is competing, it has to be better than the rest of the competition. And it's competing on so many fields now in such a short time that it's crazy these NBC rights things, removal of key features, and dumbing down the game for the new gen players really matters. In fact how their game and business model evolves to meet these new challenges is paramount, and they're going in the wrong direction.

They're limiting the economy so much to force premium purchases, but they're killing consumerism. They're breeding players that don't care at all about buying things, they're breeding players that don't see the point in spending more than $5 on their game if they ever do, they're breeding players that don't really care about ROBLOX enough at all except to play their free games every once in a while and leave with how they're packaging the game. The game itself is obvious That's a problem.

The point is ROBLOX is expanding itself so much because of its inner problems before its ready that it's insane. ROBLOX went from about a few hundred million dollar site in 2014 to a site that's worth $775 million. And for a nearly billion dollar company they sure don't have the staff or a consistent enough income to support such a company. And now that they're in the big leagues on nearly every front they're gonna be competing with the big leagues. And from these updates, and this inner turbulence I can see they probably aren't ready for it. Before they were a company with a loyal community that would continually spend, spend, spend on them. Now they have the type of people who for the most part occasionally play games or play them a lot and sparsely spend money, but would rather spend their money on their competitors. That's the type of playerbase they're expanding into, that's the type of market they're expanding into.

ROBLOX has more players than ever, ROBLOX has more platforms than ever, ROBLOX is making more money than ever, but ROBLOX is also spread more thin than ever. Putting their money in places like XBOX Live where the only good thing it's doing for them is upping their already inflated player count, putting it into mobile where they can't compete, putting it into absolutely USELESS updates, and killing the net consumerism and economy participation. ROBLOX may have gotten a few more millions, but they're still a small HQ in California with not even enough staff to moderate properly. Now thanks to expanding too soon for the quick relief, they're still little fish in the shark tank, and its sink or swim. And ROBLOX may have gotten more money, more players, but they haven't actually bettered their game model in 3 years, they haven't listened to what the players really wanted, they haven't solved their core problems, they aren't maturing, they're dumbing themselves down because Microsoft's money is falling in their lap. And they matter, maybe not right now in this pseudo Golden Age, but they will sooner or later, because ROBLOX expanded itself out of proportion, now its going to either grow into it or shrink back down. And trust me, you'd better hope they get some true growth, SOON.

How much longer until a ROBLOX clone makes them obsolete, because they were willing to make the game model better when ROBLOX just wanted to make a bigger business? If ROBLOX doesn't get a grip it's gonna sell out, go bankrupt. ROBLOX doesn't have to become the Vine of game platforms, but it's starting to look like it might.

That's the long version. The TL;DR version is this: "We need to implement R$ fission and Place-in-the-Gear immediately. LISTEN."
