Dear Roblox.

I've been playing since late 2009. Do you know where you've gone wrong? You've been wasting so much of your time. Remember those special shapes you promised in the OBC broadcast? The slanted bricks and the "waffle" and the proper cylinders? That was a YEAR AGO. WHERE ARE THEY!?

Remember good old RocketPropulsion? It was basic element. It's just a brick movement force object. Since 2009, it hasn't worked in Online Mode. AT ALL. About half a year ago, you talked about and started collision sounds. You never did again. In fact, everyone's tired of that one single tapping sound when bricks hit the ground. You now have 149 pages of hats. Don't you think that's good? And the new site design.... did you guys just get lazy or something? Or are you trying to make room for more crappy updates to be saved on the servers or are you making room for letters like this one to be saved? Sometimes change is good, but only if it needs to be changed, the old site looked amazing, the old ways of building where fun, when we wernt crowded into servers with people who act like 5 year olds because they are.... when we didn't have to deal with guests and hackers.... when we could save during online mode instead of this stupid "personal servers update" witch by the way doesn't even work correctly, and then of course these pointless updates for things that we never see or care about, them special shapes would be a better update then the site update don't you think?

Also what ever happened to the planned water update? I saw the video by Roblox Administrator Erik on youtube but that was MONTHS ago and still no water or some of those ropes also mentioned in the video. and now to the worst part of all the terrain, for one it was a good idea but came out wrong, the terrain seems to disproportional to me instead of a 4x4x4x maybe a 2x2x2x size? And the same goes with the stamper tool nobody needs a house with more blocks then what the good old crossroads map has its just too weird...

Also you guys are purposely trying to copy a well known game (M-I-N-E-C-R-A-F-T) whats next adding creepers to the stamper tool and having them walk up behind you and blow up? My point is Roblox, that you shouldnt have to try to be like another game in order to attract new players, try to be cutting edge/brand new (or in our case back to the 2009-2010 style) instead of 4 by 4 by 4 blocks seen in other games go back to the old style... you removed the user mesh's because of copyright issues, yet you are yourself ripping of another company's idea (Anyone see the irony there?).

Remember the old slogan: "Be anything, Build anything" well you cant exactly build using a set of pre-built items.

End rant/

Anyways, here I go.

First off, you saying that 09 was all 'bright and shiney' is because it was new to you. Really, Roblox has done nothing but improve over the last four years. Back in 08, you couldn't so much as add a brick over 4000 without lagging out, now I have a game exceding 10,000 bricks without a hint of lag.

Secondly, concerning the Stamper tool: "well you cant exactly build using a set of pre-built items.", Roblox Studio is still available, so this point is invalid.

Thirdly, I have a number of Personal Build Servers, which work fine, so I'm not sure where you got that they don't.

Fourth, water/ropes was an idea for the developer's Hack Week, and if you read the rest of the post they said it will not be released any time soon.

Fifth, the terrain's size is fine. The reason they made it so big was so when a game creator has a map with terrain at full size it has 16 million potential parts, so if they were to half the brick size and keep the map size, they'd need 32 million potential parts. Which don't you think that's a tad excessive?

Sixth, they said on Twitter they are not trying to copy Minecraft, simply opening up a more basic way to build for newer players.

Seventh, they removed player meshes to avoid people from making inapropriate meshes (Need I give an example?), and to reduce the load on moderators from then having to look through hundreds of meshes, same went for player made music.

I think I've covered everything? Point is, Roblox is better now than it ever has been in the past.
