Roblox's main issues with meshes were that
A) Not everyone could see certain meshes B) Some of the mesehs uploaded were innapropriate C) The meshes cause lag
Roblox has a solution to A and B, they could moderate them, but how? People were making so many meshes at such a fast pace, their only option would be to hire more peolpe, that's out of the question due to the fact that they are spread thin with their money barely being able to mage their employee's wages. You may think that they get enough money from BC, well have you ever thought of the bandwith cost, the extra hardware for personal servers? Get this, good servers cost anywhere from 500 to 1000 dollars, notice that games have servers? Count the amount and multiply it by 500, that's how much roblox paid for those servers, AT LEAST.
Back to the subject, meshes cause lag. That should be the player's responsibility, if their place lags, that's on them, they wont get any place visits.
Ok, so I have one problem solved, I'm going to take from Roblox's idea bout moderating meshes now, and cut back on the amount being uploaded.
I'm not going to decide which of these to use, and which to not use, but here are some things Roblox could take into account to bring them back.
BC-Yah notice I'm BC? I used to be NBC since 08, I know the NBC pretty well, plus only Bc uploads, doesn't mean that NBC can't use them. Would you rather have no custom meshes period, or be able to ask a friend or hire someone to make them for you?
Veterans - This cannot be used alone due to so many players being roblox veterans now, it would have to go along with BC or something to thin the amount of meshes coming in even more.
Pay to upload them, The amount to pay to upload meshes is up to roblox, they are better at finance than us.
Just remember, the more we limit who can make meshes, the more likely roblox is to bring them back.I would rather one person be able to upload meshes than none. Also, the more posts this gets, the more likely for meshes to be brought back also. |

| You have no Idea, try replacing a 50 brick gun with 1 mesh, or a 500 brick Pelican with 1 mesh, I still don't know how that causes more lag than those bricks, Nice one mods XD. |

| It would also make roblox more popular, making 3d non-blocky worlds available to players. |

Yes it would, that would actually be one of the first things I would do if we got meshes back, and I would make it a free model too so everyone could use it. It would probably spurr some ideas for other people too.

As grueling as it may sound to most NBCers, I'm in complete agreement.
Would benefit ROBLOX financially (assuming the amount of lag is low to none)
Support. |

Firstly, ROBLOX's servers are hardly "good servers". Secondly, you can get unlimited bandwith for a website. Finally, how many people have BC? A lot. |

@Grip: It's not that I'm lazy. It cuts back on lag tenfold
@Fred: Roblox has to have good servers, if they didn't you'd loos connection all the time like we did back in 08/09. Even if they didn't have good servers, they'd still be about 350. Bandwith is free for us, roblox has to pay for it. I gave plenty of Ideas to go with BC to cut back on the amount of people uploading meshes, ie: veteran, pay to upload. If you can think of any more though, let me know. |
