Now before you read this suggestion, I'd like to mention that I had emailed Customer Support (info@roblox.com) recently about a bug on the site and after their assistance worked I wanted them to hear my..well not just mine, the majority of the communitys reaction and feedback towards the annual Giftsplosion event in December being replaced with the "Holiday Giveaway" event.

They basically replied saying that all suggestions belong in this forum from now on - Roblox News & Discussion since S&I was removed: twitter.com/tim3tokillRBLX/status/892728614877351936

I'm assuming the reason due to this is because S&I was barely listened to or brought to attention, and posting in this forum has a better advantage since moderators always keep an eye on this forum from now on.

Anyways, let's get to the suggestion..i'll first explain what "Giftsplosion" is and what the replacement event that occurred in December 2016 - known as "The Holiday Giveaway" was.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What is "Giftsplosion"?

A: Giftsplosion by definition; used to be one of ROBLOX's annual catalog events to "gear up" and get ready for the holidays in December. Each day for 12 days in a row, a gift appears in the catalog, and in order to earn them you may either have to figure out and do a specific task based on assumptions from the clues it gives in the description or by simply buying it for ROBUX. The more gifts that come out, the more harder and expensive it becomes to buy or earn the gift, so that makes the easiest gift, gift #1 and the hardest being gift #12.

Q: What was the "Holiday Giveaway" event that occurred last year?

A: All I can say is it was a holiday disaster rather than a giveaway...i'm that serious, you'll see why right now.

What happened was instead of 12 daily gifts where you can figure out a method to earn them for free or simply buy them for robux, 3 poor quality weekly gifts that you CAN ONLY BUY FOR FREE had came out in the catalog.

Yup...JUST 3 POORLY MADE WEEKLY GIFTS FOR FREE...it was at that moment we all realized that a phrase we liked to call "Community Cooperation" had officially been ruined..it doesn't exist anymore.

All of those years where people came together on the forums and hangouts (such as this famous one https://www.roblox.com/games/306285756/Christmas-Gifts-2015-Finished) to figure out the way to earn the gifts was officially gone.

Just imagine everyone's reaction, it was literally chaos..especially forums, admit it.. do not hide the truth moderators.

Q: Why should Giftsplosion come back?

A: If you're a ROBLOX moderator that is considering to bring this suggestion up to attention..then let me tell your main reason first. And this reason is company wise..it's simple, I had also told customer support:

If you continue to displease this community by removing such events that people were actually satisfied with for LOTS OF YEARS, then don't be surprised when you notice the company has lost major revenue during the end of the year.

Yup, Giftsplosion is literally your end of the year paycheck..it's what makes up most of what you earned in December besides product sales such as BC, ROBLOX Toys and clothing. Don't believe me, then go to your friends that deal with marketing and ask them to confirm this.

I know..THE COMMUNITY KNOWS that the company is desperate for money, it's what we observe and conclude based on every single update relating to the pricefloor and the economy since the past few yearss.

For example; 1000R$ used to be worth 9.99 USD in 2016 but now it's worth about 12.50 USD. This means, that there's an inflation or skyrocketing coming from limited revenue, clothing revenue, and game revenue that members of the Builders Club make. And in order to prevent this to continue, administrators make the virtual currency harder to earn, it's USD value increases..it's a simple edit that really benefits and saves the company.

That's your COMAPNY WISE reason which would probably be the main one to bring it back anyways, but if you actually care about the community..then here's your COMMUNITY WISE reason..it's just as simple as your company wise reason:

Now, I have lot's of reasons but I'd like to share only one..something quite interesting and concerning that nobody has thought about yet..this is probably the most critical reason -

If you've clearly noticed moderators, ROBLOX YouTubers have been the main cause to major violations of The Terms of Service for the past year. When they're angry, they can brainwash and encourage their followers to spread rumors and raid the site as much as they want by making up a good point...in fact, this is actually why forums were merged in the first place, moderation was becoming harder to handle with all of these forum raids and bottings coming from ROBLOX YouTubers. The top solution was to merge all popular forums together so enforcing The ToS can become easier against such actions.

So what about this..what about YouTubers, go on please you say?

Well, just like how almost all ROBLOX YouTubers start drama and become the cause to something big like the John Doe rumor incident, I bet you they're going to share their opinions about this replacement event like all forumers do and spread negativity all around the community all month long and most likely aim for the forums.

Meaning, this may be the cause to the next major forums raid attacks. Famous/popular YouTubers aren't going to be as satisfied as the community if this continues.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SO, NO Giftsplosion = No Community Happiness = Lost of company revenue = Forums and community backfire

WHO AGREES WITH ME, WE NEED TO BRING BACK THIS CATALOG EVENT BY GATHERING ALL THE SUPPORT WE CAN!

Please this may be considered long aka TL;DR but take all the time to read moderators and forumers because this is a concerning topic and my reasons are critical.

We're going to need all of the support we can get for this to happen..

So you should track, share and bump this thread if you can.

Otherwise, it's going to be ignored like almost every single other ROBLOX suggestion.
