Sections:

Section I: "Classic" Hats and the Implementation of "Sort by: Year" Option
Section II: Users Year-Specific Purchases
Section III: Heads

~

Section I:

Recently, I have noticed the amount of on-sale "Classic" hats has been diminishing. Some old hats that nowadays people find worthless, however, I, alongside many others, find nostalgic and rather charming with their simple textures and meshes. These classic hats from 2007 to 2010 have been removed from the catalog slowly, being listed as "Not For Sale". Some of these hats include, but are certainly not limited to;

- Game Input Device
- Lavender Baseball Cap
- Paper Bag
- Satellite Dish

All four of these hats have gone offsale, with a couple of them coming back onsale for a special occasion, often for mere minutes. While, yes, ROBLOX is expanding and growing, older players like myself still enjoy the blocky, rough, pixel-y ROBLOX of our childhoods.

In regards to this list of hats, I have a proposition for the ROBLOX Website Team to assess: A "Classic" or "Sort by: Year Published" tab in the Catalog for each section, as well as bringing some of these hats back on-sale permanently.

For example, when a user clicks on "Catalog", they are presented with "Featured Items on ROBLOX". Say this user wants to find a hat from, say, 2008, but they cannot remember the name. Using the current Catalog page, they simply cannot search up "2008 hats" in the Catalog search bar. Instead, they could either use a Search Engine to try to find the hat, which is unlikely, or they could scour the Catalog's 138 pages of Accessories, or 69 p##es of Hats, which could take hours only to find "dead" pages, ones where the results simply say "No items found".

Using ## proposed system, any user would be able to click "Catalog", followed by "Clothing (or Accessories) > Hats" , then "Sort by: Year > [2007-2017]". This would greatly narrow down search results, and in turn, if needed, said user could click "Show unavailable items", greatly helping them in their search.

Regarding the bringing back of classic hats, I believe they should be brought back on-sale permanently, despite the fact that new players may find #### ###### or "stupid". This not only allows players to see where the ROBLOX they know came from, but also gives them a glimpse into the past, as far back as 2007. These items would be brought back, and any that used the now-defunct "TIX" currency as a price would be converted into ROBUX prices.

~

Section II:

Alongside this, I came up with a separate idea: Allow users to purchase offsale ROBLOX-created items from their join year. As an example, I joined ROBLOX in 2011. That year, the "ROBLOX Visor 2011" was available for purchase. However, I did not purchase the hat at the time, believing it to be childish or "noob-like", as my 4th grade self would believe. Nowadays, I regret that decision, being a collector of classic hats that fill me with a sense of nostalgia.

As a solution, users should be able to purchase year-specific items at their original price (with TIX-only items' prices being converted to an equivalent amount of ROBUX). This way, users who missed out on old hats from the year they joined could still purchase them. In addition, users would be able to purchase year-specific items from not only their join year, but subsequent years as well.

For example, say a 2011 wishes to purchase a "ROBLOX Visor 2011". They can go to the Catalog, click "Clothing > Hats" and "Sort by: Year > 2011", find the Visor, and purchase it for, say, 5 ROBUX. However, a user from 2011 would not be able to purchase a 2008 or 2010 Visor.

Section III:

Classic Heads were introduced in 2008, giving players the ability to change their avatar's head to a multitude of wacky shapes. Recently, every head aside from a small handful has been taken offsale, and I believe it would be appropriate to bring these back onsale along with classic hats.

do not panic, I have the TL:DR

Section 1- bring back "classic" hats
Section 2- allow users to purchase offsale items from their join year
Section 3- bring back "classic" heads

I actually took the time to read this idea and it's great.


Would be nice for a lot of old hats to be back on sale.

Section I: Support. Section II: So, basically you are sad that you didn't get ### visor that year, and that's ### only reason you want that feature? Half support. Section III: I found heads useless, but others didn't, so support. Overall, I support most of this. Support.
