Okay, lets just say ROBLOX makes 6 million dollars every month (after taxes) For the servers, it depends on what type of server and where you are in the world. For website servers, you can get them for free. For actual game servers, they can cost from ranges 300 to a thousand. I will take Jailbreak and MeepCity for example. Jailbreak = 1.2K servers, 310K divided by 26. 1193 x 500 (each server) = 597K. For MeepCity, 150 servers, 12K divided by eighty (tagged so i had to write in word form). One Hundred and Fifty x 500 (each server) = 75K. Imagine servers running 24/7 that are double or triple times that, which can cost you like 14 million dollars. Other than that, ROBLOX has to PAY their workers. Which can cost them a lot more than the servers. So I think I understand how ROBLOX removed Tix so they can earn more money in order for ROBLOX to keep running

Using opinions as facts Pretty much sums up the intelligence of the "roblox isn't greedy" group |

From the TIX removal post - "We are not in financial trouble, and we will give it to our developers and staff."
OOPS I wonder what argument they'll use next |
