I think the devs decided not to let NBCers see user-created ads. This is a TERRIBLE idea! Here's why:
1) Virus-infested popup ads galore. Stop trying to get rid of NBCers from Roblox by infecting their computers with viruses. We are potential BCers. If you make Roblox enjoyable for US too, then yeah, we'll pay.
2) Sure, some ads are bad, but there are few that shine.
3) There are 2 things that an update must have one of to be useful: it must make Roblox more fun or more safe. Not letting NBCers see user made ads does NOT make Roblox more fun or safe, making it useless.

So please bring user ads back to us.

This is giving them money. Plus, admins have not control over what ads are being featured.

I'd rather see an animated ad made by an educated team of people rather than a 4-year-old's masterpiece.

No.

"This is giving them money."

BC is giving them enough money. Plus, they already gave NBCers third-party ads.

"...admins have not control over what ads are being featured."

This is unsafe for NBCers... even Roblox itself. Ads going to inappropriate sites? Ads going to competing sites? Ring a bell for the safety of NBCers AND Roblox!?

"I'd rather see an animated ad..."

Sure, there are some user ads that are bad, but there are still those that shine. Roblox Rush by Kachance has a very well done ad. TheAmazeman makes great ads for his games. And so does stickmasterluke. Those aren't the only people, though. There are plenty more. And those animated ads? Refer to my response about the admins not having control over what ads are there.

Oh, and one more thing guys: I'm not trying to say 'Down with ALL third party ads!' I'm just trying to say 'NBCers should see user ads as well!'

I have to use IE to watch YouTube videos because Firefox Adblocker thought the videos were ads :(

No, it's not. Everything that can possibly lead to a profit helps to keep ROBLOX up and ROBLOX will do it.

"This is unsafe for NBCers... even Roblox itself. Ads going to inappropriate sites? Ads going to competing sites? Ring a bell for the safety of NBCers AND Roblox!?"

Not ROBLOX's fault. According to them, google ads are based on your search history. So if children see P0pcoRN then it's their fault they're on their parents' computer.

"Sure, there are some user ads that are bad, but there are still those that shine. Roblox Rush by Kachance has a very well done ad. TheAmazeman makes great ads for his games.

Yes, but how often do you actually see ads made by those people?
Not terribly. More often than not they're replaced by clan ads and copied ads and just plain crap ads, know what I'm sayin', man?

NBCer's CAN see user ads. We just don't see that many of them. There's one above this post as I'm typing it.

@Liir:

"ROBLOX doesn't do that, the companies that use google advertising do.
Get BC or get Firefox and Adblock Plus.
Your choice."

Roblox is too careless. 'Nuf said.

"Not really. All the ads I've seen are 10-year-old call of duty fanboys advertising their crap clan claiming to take over ROBLOX, and all that's there is text and fractals and a copypasta image made with Paint.NET."

I've seen good ads with my own eyes. Don't try to lie us into more virus-infested ads. And if all the ads you've seen are those bad ads, then those must be the only ones you pay attention to. And don't swear.

"We CAN see user ads, moron. Just not often.
ROBLOX gets paid by google to have ads, and that's what's keeping the site up and free."

First off, that's a personal attack in that part. Not OK.
Secondly, there are WAY too many third-party ads. There's BC, TBC, AND OBC. If they keep third-party ads for us, but simply lower the amount of them there is a small bit, maybe to like 50/50 user ads/third-party ads. Third-party ads are not safe for us. They can mean inappropriate sites. They can mean ads to competing sites. They can mean even completely destroying NBCers' computers. To you devs, don't try that old "NBCers quitting saves us money." IT DOES NOT. WE ARE POTENTIAL BCERS. You have to make it more fun and safe for US TOO and then we might pay and get you more money. PLUS, we're the only ones who see ads. If we all go, no more ads. No more ad money. Lowering the chance of NBCers seeing a user ad is useless, as it doesn't make Roblox more fun OR safe.

It's not flaming.
It's logical criticism and S&I is the home of such manner.

Don't like it, don't deal with it and leave the forum. Simple.

No they're not. Well maybe Telamon is but he's a jerk anyway.

As I stated earlier in this thread and a few others,
ROBLOX needs cash to stay out of bankruptcy and the employees need their paychecks to support their families and pay off any bills and, simply put, stay alive.

Learn about economics, k?

I hate the ads, especially when I accidently click them and have to wait for about more than a minute(I can't do anything), then turn the website that appeared off.
