[BEFORE YOU CALL THIS BAIT. STOP. JUST BECAUSE YOU DONT AGREE WITH MY FACTS DON'T MAKE IT BAIT. YOU CAN'T RUN AWAY FROM FACTS. LEARN TO KNOW WHAT BAIT MEANS. THIS IS NOT BAIT]

If you go to the games tab on the website, you can see there is no more game genre selecting. There's only filtering default, popular, recommended, paid, etc.

Let me tell you why this was a good update.

Game genre is irrelevant on Roblox. Why? Because we're in the 22nd century. All games are similar in many ways, making game genres useless. Removing game genre makes it so every other games get a chance for the spotlight.

It was also hard to use. Say you had # Sci-Fi themed FPS, you could only select 1 genre. So it was confusing because you had SciFi and FPS as a theme as your game, but you could only choose 1. And choosing All was bad, because that meant your game composed of ALL the genres listed, which is bad.

Removing the genre tab also made the game page much more cleaner and organised. When you chose a specific genre, such as horror, games that aren't even horror showed up still. And that made a terrible user experience.

This isn't your website to be telling Roblox what not to do. They make the final call, NOT YOU. You are just consumers, you're worth nothing to them. They own this website, not you. You're not allowed to tell them what's wrong and what they shouldn't do.

Use your brain nostalgic knucklehead freakazoids. We're not in 2006. Game genres is obsolete now. You can't be discriminating other games. Game genres deserved to be removed.

Not to mention game genre is obsolete. It's no longer used in the game industry. Tell me when the last time you saw a game genre on a video game box, and don't you dare lie. That's right. Never.

Then I have a question, Lets say a 9 year old wants Robux but his parents don't buy him the Robux, And the kid made a game but how is the game gonna be popular without buying anything for the game neither ads so how is the child gonna get his Robux if there is no genre?

Also the games that were made before the removal of genres became popular by genres

@lol

Game genre tab was not used by ANYONE, get out of here with that lie.

And the 9 yr old kid can get his game popular by making a very well scripted game and monetizing his game as well. No cost at all

"Use your brain nostalgic knucklehead freakazoids" Kid, look who's talkin', lil irrelevant little kid.

"You can't run away from the facts" Yeah, we can run away from your so called "facts", they're opinions, why talK?

"You could only choose one"####l#####e you considered the fact that Sci-Fi and FPS doesn't match in any way, unless it's some alien shoo#####u##

Removing the Genre tab limits what can be looked up seeing as some people don't remember the games they used to play, and were fun. Now, you basically got most popular, how much money they making, and more.

"This isn't your website to be telling Roblox what not to do." Well, we're giving them actual advice to make them better, we can't force that to happen unless some petition actually works. ### ## isn't your job to feed us false information on a pathetic thing that never should of came to be. You're forcing US to think how you think, which is entirely uncalled for as you're mentally unstable.

"Tell me when the last time you saw a game genre on a video game box" Oh, what's that? Game modes in FPS? COD - Domination, Team deathmatch, Capture the flag, Search and destroy. Learn your facts kid, you're irrelevant.

*N' can you *Shootemup ### ain't your job Oh, and the Game Genre selection was used, multiple times. You might of not used it, many other people did. It's a fact that you're mentally unstable on the fact you only thing based on what you see, or do, or what's happening right in front of your eyes, you got no valid reasoning why you're actually posting something that is what-not "useful".

@Dim

Those front page games are there for a reason. They are very well scripted. If MeepCity is on the front page for months, that means they're doing something right.

Stop playing old games and keep up with the trend you buffoon.

And LOL!!! THOSE ARE NOT GAME GENRES YOU IDIOT IM DEAD AS HELL!! THOSE ARE MATCH TYPES YOU BARNICLE HEAD

Most of the post were on this mentally unstable child, I honestly don't care if he is or not, it's pathetic to see how insane it is for ANYONE to think, that just because we're not Roblox, we have no right to fight back. When in reality, companies take ideas from their consumers, and not once, has Roblox taken any consideration in the community for ideas, to keep them alive.

Let's take TF2, it would of died without the help of the community and workshop. Valve basically dug themselves into a hole, until the community got them out of it. They've done very well ever since the fact Valve is screwing their own game. But has Roblox done any of that to fix their game? No, they're just wantin' your money. All it ever was is a money grabbing game, that died out years ago.

"If MeepCity is on the front page for months, that means they're doing something right"
N' it is a game genre, don't you know? You got, Elimination, Defend/Attack, Kill count, and standard team deathmatch, besides that. MeepCity is full of OD, that's the only reason why it's still up on the front page, same thing with "Adopt Me"
Are you that incompetent to think differently and actually think something that is sane and reasonable? You're talkin' every time with a rant the community is screwing Roblox, when we're trying to save this pathetic game.
Why is Adopt me up then? Because OD.
Why is MeepCity up? OD.
Why is Jailbreak up? Yet again, OD and little kids thinking it's a "fun game".
Why is Phantom Forces up? It's one of the only god damn games out.
Why is Pizza Place up? Because it's a old game that still is fun to everyone else.
Why are tycoons up there when they're horribly scripted and not designed at all? Because children find it fun. Are you mentally unstable?

"Keep up with the trend you buffoon" Exactly what I said before, you force people to follow you when we all know, doing so is why Roblox is absolutely toxic to the point where no one cares about the game.

You want us to believe you? Get better reasoning, take out the fact we forcin' Roblox to do these things, we can't force them to do anything. It's only suggestions what they can do better, and are you a Roblox Dev? No, you have no say in the matter to force us to stop talkin', deal with the updates, and if we ain't happy, we can just leave. You got no authority, period.
