1. Removing tix was necessary for complicated reasons. It was a temporary currency from the beginning.

2. R15 is great, so I don't see why that's a problem.

3. The thumbnails help prevent people from viewing vulgar content on the website.

4. ROBLOX is aware that the filter system has issues and they're fixing it.

"1. Removing tix was necessary for complicated reasons. It was a temporary currency from the beginning."

But they did not provide a proper way to transfer tix to robux, and did not provide replacements for things like receiving tix for each player that joins your game. If by "complicated reasons" you mean greed, then you are correct.

"2. R15 is great, so I don't see why that's a problem."

LOL


"3. The thumbnails help prevent people from viewing vulgar content on the website."

Why should everyone have to be punished because of the 0.01% of inappropriate game icons? Why doesn't this only apply to new games, and not already existing ones so as to not break old, unmaintained games. And most importantly, why didn't they inform us about this change ahead of time?


"4. ROBLOX is aware that the filter system has issues and they're fixing it."

So basically coming soon TM? Ok.

this update isn't letting us even see what the game is about at all! if the info isn't in the description we can only rely on joining in to figure it out and that just wastes time

I don't understand why it's a big deal if I'm honest, I mean the title, description, like/dislikes ratio should be obvious whether a game is clickbait or not

@Exalae

I think I've already sufficiently explained why. Why do new players seem to love to do apologetics for Roblox, even when they make clearly horrible updates?

"But they did not provide a proper way to transfer tix to robux, and did not provide replacements for things like receiving tix for each player that joins your game. If by "complicated reasons" you mean greed, then you are correct."

No, it isn't greed. It's economical. ROBLOX's population has grown immensely and considering that users used to receive 10 tickets per day, multiply 10 tickets by the number of active users, and that shows how much money is being pulled out of thin air into the economy on a daily basis. Oh, and not to mention the thousands of builders club members who earned not only 10 tickets per day, but earned a daily robux salary, AND, the people who buy robux. All of these factors inflate the economy on a daily basis, and inflation causes economic instability and can make items unaffordable for people due to the fixed incomes. So no, it isn't "greed". Do your homework before you slap a label on the company because updates like this are carefully carried out.

"Why should everyone have to be punished because of the 0.01% of inappropriate game icons? Why doesn't this only apply to new games, and not already existing ones so as to not break old, unmaintained games. And most importantly, why didn't they inform us about this change ahead of time?"

First of all, you're throwing inaccurate statistics out of thin air. Secondly, these thumbnails don't break games at all. ROBLOX is adjusting to higher standards for user safety, and they have to apply it to all games. There are still games out there which may have inappropriate content in their thumbnail still, and that means that there would still be inappropriate content on the website left for moderators to go on a scavenger hunt to find. It's too much work. Thirdly, ROBLOX does not need to inform anybody about this, because it doesn't affect anybody. You still have the option to revert back to your old thumbnail, so I don't see why it's such a big deal.

You have no idea what you're talking about. There is no higher standards, how does that even make sense. There will always be inappropriate content no matter what thumbnail change you provide. It in simple terms, ruins every old game ever, making them look identical. Click bait will be raised because all the thumbnails look the same. How is that hard to understand. ""ROBLOX does not need to inform anybody about this because it doesn't affect anybody." That statement is wrong, it effects every inactive user ever.

okay you obviously care about removing tix but your trying to be apart of us

HOW DO YOU NOT LIKE R15? i love it, and so does everyone else! i think it was a very creative idea to add limbs and elbows to your roblox character.

the thumbnails are so there aren't any inappropriate game pictures.
the tags are only for safety for people under 13.
