As most people know, Playerpoints were introduced to ROBLOX to help show achievement, but in reality they're kinda useless at the moment...

Sooo what if you could trade in Playerpoints for Robux? Like say for all of those players with crap tons of them could trade in 1000 Playerpoints for 1 Robux or something around those lines. It'd be a pretty good use for them plus a lot of ROBLOXians would actually have a good way to get Robux without having to pay money or wait a long time to get enough Tix to trade in.

So what do you guys think? Should ROBLOX let you trade in Playerpoints for Robux?
Or if you have your own idea as to how the system could work, be sure to let me know!

It'd at least give them a purpose other than "HAI we're here for no reason. :33"

They are a nice thing to have, but they need to be used for something...

You obviously don't read the blog. PP is not a currency.

This is technically being able to get free robux.
No support, would be widely abused.

Because people who have millions of player points could cash them in for possible thousands of robux and the overall value of robux would plummet

Honestly here and now I could obtain plenty of player points enough for at least 10k robux with the rates you described.

Player points aren't a currency.

Also, there are plenty of other ways to earn robux and tix without paying real money or waiting a long time. For instance, you could make a game. You get one ticket every time someone visits your game, and you get robux whenever you sell gamepasses or developer products. Also, you can profit from trading currency, or even profiting from limiteds that come out.

I'm not a big fan. Player points are not really meant to be currency. I think it's better to focus on other things that would give player points more purpose. One idea would be allowing creators to know how many total player points a player in their game has so they can use it to affect gameplay in some way. Another option would be automatic ranking in groups based on player points. As it stands, points are a great concept even without a true point to them. Think about how many games you've played where your goal is to acquire points, which were completely useless. Their main purpose is to give game builders a way to create incentive in their game, and it works. Getting player points through games allows players without any robux/tix to create a bank of player points they can use to advertise their game.

In order for this to work, it HAS TO BE:
1 million player point = 1 Robux

@PokyShadow77: 1 Million PP for 1 Robuck? That's actually pretty good.
