okay, long word wall. if your mind gets easyly melted, TURN AWAY NOW FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY!
contents: what this is [NYAN] important prenote [EPIC FACE] where the 'gap' is [SPARTA] how the 'gap' is damaging roblox [CHUCK NORRIS] closing the 'gap' [RICKROLL] summary/conclusion [MUDKIPS]
hold ctrl and press F then type in the meme to the right to go straight to that part.
[NYAN] recently, a lot of NBCers have 'complained' about there being a massive 'gap' between BCers and NBCers. i agree, and disagree. the idea of this is to show NBCers a good explaination of why they shouldn't complain, and a suggestion on stopping them doing so. (don't worry) oh btw, i think this will be the ONLY unbiased thing about this subject in the fourms.
[EPIC FACE] first though, a prenote: my BC was bought in june this year, and has only renewed ONCE! so i've only been a BC member for one year. considering i've been around a lot longer than that, i'll understand your thoughts more likely than lets say... sonicmarshmallow.
[SPARTA] so, where is this gap?
well, i tend to split roblox into three catagories. foruming. building. shopping. and playing. (don't forget socializeing >:U) oh wait, thats five... :/ ah well.
well, fourming has no gap whatsoever.
building, exlcuding badges and placers, the same. but badges help in little ways now thanks to DP. they are just collectibles now. trivial collectibles.
playing has little differences also. the massive one is BC only places, which i am personally agianst. it's subjugating.
socializing, the only difference is groups. only BC can be in more than five groups and create them.
so in most of the worlds, the gap is so tiny it would be worthless complaining about. \:/:
but wait! i forgot one! the catalog! and looking at that, that is where the MASSIVE gap is that they 'complain' about. NBCers can't get a lot of items. i'd estimate only 5% of the items was avalible to the NBC community with ease. which is sad, really.
NBC are the next source of cash! we shouldn't abandon them. we shouldn't make them feel pressured to buying BC. but at the same time, we need to be a little tougher on them.
[CHUCK NORRIS] when i said we need to be a little tougher on NBCers, don't take it litterally. a massive gap like this, between BCers and NBCers, is a loss of finance. they won't buy BC. a happy person, is a person that buys.
lets put it this way. would you like shiny, beautiful, polished silver, or rusty, old, ugly gold? the silver because of how nice it is, or the gold because gold is better than silver?
in a way, the NBC is gold, and the BC is silver.
the NBC are the biggest source of money, so gold, but because of the gap, it is rusty, old and ugly. BC is shiny, beautiful and polished, but not as massive a source for cash as NBC, so silver.
what i'm saying is, closing the gap in the catalog between NBC and BC will make more NBC buy BC, which is a profit, no? if you help out NBC you help out BC, which helps you.
the gap also harms fourming. ik that a thread costs money, so a lot of complaints will... well, we need to fix the gap because it is damaging roblox.
[RICKROLL] to fix the gap, here are some solutions. BC to (N)BC donate. 'alt abusible' who would want to waste 5 dollars an alt?
more NBC items. maybe make the NBC market bigger, but still not as big as the BC market. prehaps a quarter can be easyly accessible?
more 'universal' updates. updates everyone can access. thats the best kind of update.
[MUDKIPS] there is a gap in the catalog between NBCers and BCers. this is harming roblox. if we fix the gap, more people would buy BC. the suggestions just above will help fix the gap. it will also stop some complaints. |

yet it works both ways. in fact, in my eyes, it actually works the other way than intended, unfortunately. the gap put me off buying BC, i only bought it when a pathetic ad... (shivers) not talking about it. |

@watevs Note: he never said THE WHOLE catalogue. Just 1/4 of it. He doesn't want to CLOSE the gap. Just to make it smaller. |

thanks for the opinion watevs.
ik that the gap is there for a very purposeful reason, but gaps are difficult to use.
too small OR big and people get put off buying the product. and right now, i feel it is too big. |

Support. If you see other games like Rune.scpe(not allowed to say it) their free version is also looked upon, and also had features being updated. The free players get alot, and the pay to play people get even more, but the gap isnt that big. thats how they get a ton of money.

"i think this will be the ONLY unbiased thing about this subject in the fourms."
Very un-true and false.
About the "gap" you are explaining about. It doesn't matter how small or how big the gap is. What really makes the illusion that "gap" is big is the fact that they are being used so often,and NBC want privileges to those. Also this has a wide personal thought about the "gaps" between BC and NBC,you can view it as a small gap,while others find it a huge issue,being under certain circumstances that some people don't have a predicament in.
50% Support,although a little unnecessary i think.

NBCers cost ROBLOX money. They have to pay for unlimited bandwith, and NBCers are using it without paying.
NBCers quitting doesn't give ROBLOX money, nor take money, so it isn't such a big deal.
But obviously ROBLOX tries to entice them to get BC/buy ROBUX.
Thanks! ;) Leates |
