first ROBLOX convention, the ROBLOX Rally #### was held in San Francisco on August ## ##### A similar event called the ROBLOX Game Conference 2012 was held in 2012. The subsequent BLOXcon 2013 was held in Chicago, London, and New York, then completed by the Virtual BLOXcon 2013 which could be watched through a live stream.

On April ## ##### the ROBLOX website was compromised. Malicious users decreased the price of some goods, took or awarded ROBUX from and to users, and used site-wide notices to display objectionable messages. The site was taken offline for a brief period of time and ROBLOX staff reverted the changes.

A trading system allowing users to trade limited and limited unique items was enabled for all premium members on July 12, 2012.[8]

On December 11, 2012, ROBLOX started supporting mobile devices.[9]

Contemporary history
On September 24, 2013, ROBLOX established a price floor for clothing in the catalog. The minimum price to sell a T-shirt was set to 10 ROBUX and the minimum price to sell shirts or pants was set to 20 ROBUX (or 120 tickets).

The Developer Exchange program was released on October 1, 2##3#########s program allows developers with Outrageous Builders Club membership to earn money by exchanging ROBUX.

On March 15, 2016, David Baszucki announced that tickets would be discontinued after thirty days.[11] During the thirty days before they were removed, items that could only be bought with tickets were released. Tickets were removed on April 14, 2016, at the same time as the Trade Currency system which allowed trading of both currencies.

A text filtering feature using the Community Sift service replaced the safe chat menu in 2016. This allows users under the age of thirteen to create content on the website and to use messages in games that are not predefined.

Events
ROBLOX has held contests, tournaments, egg hunts, conventions and other events regularly since 2007 and the frequency of events has increased over the years.

Conventions
Since 2011, ROBLOX has hosted conventions in multiple cities where could go to meet the ROBLOX staff, view demonstrations, and participate in activities.

The first convention was held at the Exploratorium in San Francisco, California on August 1, 2011. It was called the ROBLOX Rally 2011.[12] Players who attended the event received a free lunch, as well as a poster, a T-shirt, a water bottle, and a lanyard.

The purpose of the conference was for players to meet up with each other and to discuss ROBLOX, ask questions to the ROBLOX staff, and find out about future updates to the game. One of the most notorious updates that was discussed at the ROBLOX Rally 2011 was the new ROBLOX terrain.

Tickets were sold for $10.00, and participants who were under the age of 12 had to attend with someone over the age of 16.

The second convention was held at the Santa Clara Convention Center on July 14, 2012.[13] The convention was named the ROBLOX Game Conference 2012. Players who attended the event received a poster and a lanyard, plus extra items if they purchased tickets before certain dates.

At the conference, players could meet each other in real life, share ideas about ROBLOX to other users as well as ROBLOX staff, and find out about some of ROBLOX's plans for the future. There were several conferences at the convention about future updates to ROBLOX, as well as user feedback and suggestions. Multiple awards were given in specific categories.
