Read the description.
IMO this implies ROBLOX is going to eventually be P2P. By freedom, he means the freedom to play ROBLOX, and by it not being free he means you will have to buy BC to play ROBLOX.
Either that, or they are just referring to how the liberty hat that it is describing isn't for free.
More likely the second one, but it doesn't hurt to start a conspiracy before I leave ROBLOX in...*looks at watch*...12 days. |

Interpret it how you must. I am SURE it isn't anything like I described in the first post.

"Because America deserves a top hat."
America deserves it, but only the BC Americans can buy it. |

| You know freedom isn't free is a commonly used quote around the 4th of July. |

@snow
No, I didn't know that. Now that I googled it and found a link to the Wikipedia, I really do feel your statement is false because they do not mention today's date in it at all. |

Oh, while I was on that Wikipedia page, I scrolled all the way down and read "The idiom may be used as a rhetorical device."
I clicked on rhetorical device.
Here is a quote from it: "The goal of rhetoric is to persuade towards a particular frame of view or a particular course of action, so appropriate rhetorical devices are used to construct sentences designed both to make the audience receptive through emotional changes and to provide a rational argument for the frame of view or course of action."
What I feel that means, is they are hinting at the turning of ROBLOX into P2P with a rhetorical device to help explain that there is always a price and that the staff has to pay it and that leads to them needing more money.
Or something.

Or, it could be the second thing I said in the first post. |
