I only play on Roblox when I want to kill some time, but truly left because the removed tix. To this day, I still (somehow) find time to play on Roblox, but I'm still dumbfounded on how I have to spend physical cash for the only currency in the game that non-player characters can no longer achieve. The mechanic where players could convert Tix into Robux is abolished because the suits a Roblox needed more money. They already have enough money from manipulating thousands upon THOUSANDS of children to steal ###### ################## from their parent's wallet (you most likely included). This makes casual players of the game stick out like a sore thumb in-game and discouraged from playing the game even further.

Excuse the hashtags from Roblox's spam system (which is terrible by the way).
I meant to say the card that allow you to go e-shopping.

roblox doesn't care
they're making money, which is the whole point of owning any kind of business

"which is the whole point of owning any kind of business"

Addendum:
Without competition, because they're a government-sponsored >>monopoly<< (ROBLOX holds 21 patents as far as I'm aware and ROBLOX violates the principles of free culture for both server/client stuff.)

i'd ramble about how that's anti-capitalist but you already know my argument pretty well.

ahp, you can't sum it up as "they don't care, they're making money"

they do care, they don't want to disappoint anyone, it wouldn't make any kind of financial sense to just screw one market because they feel like it.

A better way of phrasing it is that they're catering to their most profitable and largest market which happens to be the 7 year olds front page gamer players.

That being said, a lot of what roblox has done alienates some of their more niche markets for no reason other than their own incompetency and ignorance. They've made multiple updates that don't benefit anyone and negatively effect many of the smaller player base.


They're super inattentive and overall they're a very poorly ran game compared to others.

ROBLOX is what you make it. Honestly the currency in the game does not matter. Yes everyone wants to get the coolest new gear and what not, but you play the game to play the game (Cliché). The only corruption in the game is some players (wont say any names). Don't hate the game hate the players kids. Just live by my motto boyz and/or girlz.

"Keep it Gnarly" - I think I said that?
