nah ROBLOX is not falling, It became one of the game CO which make 5.9 millions of bill each month, Can you see how massive the amount of cash they earned ?
Beside, they created toys which also bring alot of profit to them also.
Why the heck did you use freedom-speech to assume ROBLOX is falling ? How disgusting filthy is that.

well you're not the only one who know that info. Stop act like one.
And you're the one who's not understanding.
Whoever post about "tix" stuffs on here possibly get an account deletion moderation. I'm trying to explain why they did that on purpose in a sense, warning you about this disease also.

Almost No One is going to buy robux now, so believe or not, that amount of money is going to fall WAY lower than when they had tix in a year or so, also counting they turn away new players and trash out existing ones like me.

ROBLOX started off in 2006, and at the time was advertised to be a platform where you can make and be anything. With the initial release of what was to become one of the most expansive and community-driven platforms, most likely, on the internet, the users were given guest accounts and normal accounts.
Guest accounts were basic and simple: Try out the game for free without any communication or currency or access to anything other than to simply play the games and see what the platform was about.
Full on accounts, on the other hand, have access to all the features of the platform, and if they purchase memberships or one of the two forms of currency, ROBUX, they can unlock even MORE potential.
With the start of ROBlOX, for a few years it was a pretty small community compared to all the people on the internet, with most likely a few thousand to five thousand people, etcetera (I am unaware how many accounts there were actually back then) and was very small. These users could purchase ROBUX or memberships if they liked the platform and wanted more, or if they wanted to support further development of this once small platform. However, ROBLOX understood that it was a small community, and in order to grow, they must not make everything a pay wall. They created the second form of currency, Tickets, or TIX. This was a free currency if you didn't want ROBUX, that was less valuable than ROBUX but could still buy nifty items. Hats and clothes were sold for TIX, so you wouldn't always look like the default character. You were given 10 TIX a day, and you had the option to turn 10 TIX into 1 ROBUX if you wanted, or you could save it for nice hats. Also, if people visited your place, you could earn TIX as well.
Fast foward a couple of years, and ROBLOX was growing. More and more people liked the platform and what it was about and started creating more and more accounts. In turn, ROBLOX grew as a cooperation and hired more employees to keep up with this. More moderation was put into play, and ROBLOX was doing fine. As the community would continue to grow, ROBLOX had to resort to other methods to earn a couple extra dollars to not go bankrupt and loose their platform they had worked hard on: Sponsored events were put into play, and certain membership lengths would be cut so ROBLOX could profit off 3 BC Annually, ~$150 after 3 years, instead of ~$100 for good. As the community grew, ROBLOX was getting worried. They couldn't add more ads, or more sponsored events, or more membership tiers, so they had to do one thing: Base the game off a paywall. What they didn't do at the start to grow was now the last resort. ROBLOX announced it was going to remove TIX a few weeks before April Fool's day. They said there would be TIX-special hats to celebrate the removal of TIX and bid it farewell, as ROBLOX was starting to blast off other parts of the giant ship to ## ###### ### ####### TIX was just up in line. Being before April Fool's, many of the community thought it was an April Fool's day joke, as was with "Google buying ROBLOX" and "Gooblox." However, others thought this was serious, and some threatened to leave the platform for good if this wasn't stopped. When the date they announced TIX would be gone came, those who thought it was a silly prank were shocked, and those who threatened left the platform. The forums were flooded with rants about how dumb this was, and Suggestions and Ideas subforum was in chaos with posts about how this is uncalled for. For weeks on end, the community was screaming at ROBLOX, and a group of people with ### ###### idea thought ### ###### reason why this was a thing: Money. They thought ROBLOX had become greedy, and in turn, thought they'd decided to remove it, being the only free currency. More and more people joined this thought and started ranting about how greedy ROBLOX has become, too fogged up to think about a bigger picture, like other people were: The counterarguments. They said they needed more money to account for the growing population, and the forums had become a place to avoid for a bit, until everyone cooled off.
Finally, it ended. We all said our last goodbyes to the currency, and went on##u###a####ith paying for the currency.
However, with the removal of TIX, ROBLOX said one thing: "We promise to make more free hats!" This was to ensure there wouldn't be more "noobs," as in ROBLOX terms: A player with cheap hats, usually priced at under 500 R$. With the removal of TIX, the free hats only increased the amount of noobs and made more and more people become the "noob" they all dreaded. You also can no longer earn any ROBUX off place visits, and have to rely on gamepasses to do the job.
And now, we come to current day: Noobs have become an increasingly growing population, games are become mini ROBLOX type systems with mass paywalls, and ROBLOX is finally out of the thin ice with money.
Some people still say this is a bad idea, but others have gotten some of these disagreements resolved by telling them they "needed" not "wanted" more money to account the growing ROBLOX population.
And there, my friend, is a 6k character essay on why TIX isn't a thing anymore. Was ROBLOX in need of this solution: Yes. Yes they were.

"The ROBLOX corporation will not add tickets back ever.

you remember that some kids ARE NOT allowed to buy robux, and it is for the safety for the children, and how would they get a job? some people on roblox are kids, you would have remembered the fact that they are not allowed to spend real money on a game.

and also no support for this thread, would cause inflation.

Why would some kids not be allowed to buy robux? I had a job when I was 11. I mowed people's lawns and raked leaves for some extra cash. Later I walked to CVS and bought a prepaid ROBLOX card or anything else I felt like getting. It really isn't hard, it's more of a factor of laziness in most cases.

OP knows nothing about businesses


There are over 300 million accounts. And there are servers. Imagine how much money you would have to give to keep up servers for over 300 million accounts?


Tix was useless, but it was preventing a lot players from buying robux. So once they removed it, ROBLOX got richer than ever, and now they don't have a problem keeping the servers up for 300 million accounts.


The more popular your game gets, the more you have to spare.

Oh my lord the argument shouldn't be about "Kids are perfectly able to buy ROBUX because they have money" and then some idiot saying "But some kids don't have money" because guess what? YOU DON'T NEED ANYTHING ON ROBLOX. Literally nothing is needed to sustain a happy life. ROBLOX is such a minuscule thing and I don't understand why people care so much.

TIX wasn't useless, else there wouldn't be a billion posts about its removal per day.

It was the only thing keeping ROBLOX being what it is now in regards to avatars. Seriously, go look at any front page game and click servers, then see how many people look exactly the same. It's dumb.

People looked exactly the same with tix too. They were so useless it would take 10 days of logging in just to get a shirt.

now ROBLOX released like at least 7 free shirts so that's 70 days of logging in worth of shirts that you now get for free.

Then there's of course the free hats and pants.
