Because it would be profitable to ROBLOX.
The trading system does not actually exchange money between each player.
Rather, the trading system exchanges the value of an item, whether it be in rarity or in cost, that can later be used to generate profit. The only way people can gain profit is by selling these items, a feature that is BC-only.
By allowing non-BCers to exchange items, these players are much more inclined to purchase BC in order to sell the items that they exchanged. This method is fool-proof since most players who purchase BC use it as a means to garner more money. |

interesting sentiment.
rather than looking at the benefits of the consumers, you're mainly looking at the benefits for the admins.
heh heh
though i don't really think they are going to make it non-BC, this is at least one of the better explanations that can have them scratching their heads for a while.
at least, if they even read it. |

that's the only way the admins will do something, if it profits them.
besides, the trading system would remain nbc so everybody can trade. :P |

Nice thought, but I have to disagree.
People are much more inclined to purchase Builders Club if it means getting a feature that they have been waiting on for years.
ROBLOX is growing exponentially, and they need more people to get BC faster than they needed them before just so they can afford servers and upcoming updates for everyone. Making the feature completely BC-Only will encourage more people to purchase a form of Builders Club. |

But also you think people will buy BC for a month etc.. just to use the trade system?
New users that buy BC will not even use it because they don't know about it.

| It would stop little kids wanting BC so there would be less crap on the front pages since they have less places to fill with crap. |

Perhaps. But from what I've seen in the comments of the latest blog post, there are a lot of people complaining about making the trading system non-BC.
I agree with you that ROBLOX is growing exponentially and more purchases are needed to keep up with it. I just don't believe that it will attract more players into purchasing a subscription by continuing to make every new feature BC-only . |

"every new feature BC-only"
Features for everybody come more often than features for just BC'ers.

The link above shows basically my entire argument on this subject. I made the thread earlier just to reference to in these kinds of situations. |

the community has always been bad. the only thing that kept it from getting really bad was the small amount of good forumers that counteracted it.
they've long since left and moved on so now, roblox is ten times as bad. |
