Nah.
Doesn't "incentivize" users to buy memberships and virtual currency if they can earn them for free. |

@karen what that's just the gifts opening except the item inside IS the gift and thus the gift will get removed entirely |

| I think it's not because they are lazy, but it's because they are busy working on r15 and accessories. |

| Gifts are too confusing for new players. |

I think that that was just the blog's way of simplifying, instead of saying "all players with any gift in their inventory will have their respective items ALSO added to their inventory." I'm pretty sure that they just phrased it oddly.

@kongu does it even matter? the gifts are useless lmao
unlike the 2013 egg hunt, where some of the eggs actually looked better than the prizes they contained |

@kongu
Hopefully you are right. I considered that possibility too.
@person saying gift boxes are useless
There are many of us that collect gift boxes and like to wear them. They often have interesting textures and meshes. It's been a tradition since 2007 that we can keep the boxes. |

| I always liked the gifts... You got two for the price of one, but now they are getting replaced. :/ |

@arb fair enough, but they just seem odd to wear
if the roblox team do decide to delete them though, it's one of the few things i think is justified on their part
at christmas you don't keep the gift you unwrapped, do you?
an argument could be made for the halloween and eggs, but ehh...

They already tried that with eggs and no one liked the change. Hence why eggs don't hatch anymore.
Plenty of people wear eggs in outfits and combos. |
