Some people ask: "why do we not have a good community?" Some people think it's the Mods. Some people think it's the Catalog. Some people think it's the "noobs" on roblox. Some people think it's the alternative accounts. Some people think it's the trolls. Some people even go as far as to think it's the 12ers. But that's not it, that's not it at all. The problem is the ignorant players and useless features of roblox. None of this nonsensical join date bullcrap has to do with the problem of ROBLOX. Here is an example of the typical roblox chat I see when playing a fighting game:
*Noob Pwns Veteran* Veteran: WTF?! Noob: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Veteran: Stupid nub, time to die! *Noob gets pwned* Noob: THATS IT IM GOING TO REPORT YOU FOR HACKING NOOB!!!! Veteran: Whatever However, the Veteran gets account deleted because of the report system. Here, I'll show you it.
Now, the report system is a very big problem in Roblox. It's clear that it is not handled by a real person and it's viewed by a robot. Now, I don't have any problems with this. YouTube does the same thing. However, after some close inspection, I found out that the robot will determine whether to ban the user randomly. It just decides yes or no. It's a huge problem. Many users who are reported never even get banned, but many innocent people do get banned.
Now, Iron Cafe. What can we say about it? It's an okay place, you know, a fun little hangout by IronInforcer. However, users there tend to go WAY over the top, and break roblox rules. I go there, and the typical chat is... *Random Person walks into Iron Cafe*
(ODers start dating and fake kissing) Person: ODing is stupid. ODers: Whatever, loser. (ODers resume) Person: I'll report you if you don't stop ODers: You jelly? (ODers resume again) Person: Reporting.... ODers: You're just jealous because you have NO GF/BF NOOB!!! ODers: You need some muscles Person: Reported ODers: That's it! We're gonna report you noob!!!! *Massive flame war here*
Jaredvaldez. Yes, the user who is infamous. I see threads about him literally every day. Jaredvaldez is one of the most discussed people on roblox for sure. He's a troll though. Every single time I check the ROBLOX Talk forums, there has to be a thread about him. I want it to end. Jaredvaldez is literally nothing but a troll who is just messing about. No big deal.
Clans are also a stupidity problem for Roblox. They fight about everything and declare "war" on eachother. It's really stupid. Here, here is a typical clan raid chat conversation... Random Clan: Clan, we're raiding F.E.A.R.! Let's go, go, go! *Goes to F.E.A.R.* Random Clan: ATTACK!!!!!!! F.E.A.R.: ban/everybody in that clan Random Clan: You can't ban us, you cheaters! F..E.A.R: you mad? Random Clan: THAT'S IT, TIME TO EXPLOIT F.E.A.R.: NO YOU DON'T Random Clan: *Bad words here* F.E.A.R.: *Bad words here* *Insert group war here*
What exactly is causing all of this? What's causing all the trolls, ignorant players and morons? The players. The players in game and in the forums are encouraging this behavior. They influence it. When you first turn into a veteran, you will suddenly see a new world. A world, where YOU think that when you joined, everything was 1 million times better. You're upset that all of these noobs not being as Superior and Knowledged as you. So, as a reaction, you ignore them, and treat them like crap.
And how do the noobs react? Negative behavior. They act all out on it, and then rant. And this can come in many forms, but it's usually spamming/flaming.
It actually amazes me how many chain reactions tehre are. We have worse and worse and worse people coming on roblox because everybody's respect for people on this game just becomes worse, and worse, and worse. Everybody just becomes self-centered, thinking that everybody around them is a noob. It's like a storm cloud over your head, and people around you are going to be affected somehow.
So, how do we "fix" the community? We fix our behavior. We have to stop acting like we're better then the other person. Everybody is equal. There is no account that is better than the other, no matter how much money, friends, limiteds, hats, or places they own. It does not matter if they have a paid subscription to roblox. It's like being in a new school, it feels weird, however, you get used to it after a while. And, the community around you also effects YOU. Being in a good school means good behavior, and a bad school... well, you get the point.
Now, this definitely doesn't mean that everybody will change. There will definitely be bad people here. How do we deal with them? You fight bad with good. Try to be nice with these people, try to tell them to stop in a nice manner. Or, as people may say: "If you have nothing good to say, don't say anything at all."
I understand that some people don't want to change, They think that such a thing can never work and create more problems. They are scared. They think this won't work. Their fear tells them they'll be let down by others. That's not true. I prefer a good robloxian over a bad one. How about you?

Too long; Didn't read. I already know what's wrong with the community, and it's not the amount of people joining. It's that the ones with decency don't find the forums entertaining at times.

@seed I'm going to have to ask you kindly to stop. By doing this, you are being part of the bad behavior of Roblox. |

If we were all nice and friendly, there would be no fun. No wars in clans, no funny trolls, no failed trolls, no funny forum threads, no in-game fights. Mean people are just as important as nice people |

@seed I'm not saying everybody has to be nice. I'm saying, if we had a community that helped out in help threads and not just post garbage like "hurr durr delete system 32" or "lololololol press alt + f4!!!11!!". I'm not saying all of the trolls have to leave. I'm not saying everybody has to change their behavior. I'm saying, we have to become a little nicer then we are. |

Slight typo in my last post: if we had a community that helped out in help threads and not just post garbage like "hurr durr delete system 32" or "lololololol press alt + f4!!!11!!", it would be a lot better. |

@seed Most of roblox would agree with this thread. We are happy the way we are? Look at how many people have quit Roblox. Why? Because they are unhappy. Why? Because of the community.
You can't really understand what I'm trying to say unless you read the whole post. |

@LordPerfecto Sure we can't have a good community, but we can have a BETTER community, which is what I'm trying to say. |

More people come than quit and besides, most quit as: They get too old in their view The updates Get bored of it. A clan goes inactive
Very few quit because of the community, why annoy the 99% for the sake of a whining 1%? |

@seed I'm not whining about anything, I'm explaining. There's a very big difference.
Nobody really quits because of the updates. Who quits because of a clan going inactive. It doesn't matter that there is only 1%, 1% of people have quit because of the community, which is very bad. Nobody should quit because of a community, period. |

@seed But, as you see, that's bad. We shouldn't just "keep it that way". If we keep it this way, more and more users will quit, and more users quitting is bad. Less users = less fun. And, if you think all of that stuff listed is funny, that's fine. However...
Less users equals too... Less funny trolls Less wars in clans Less failed trolls Less funny forum threads Less in-game fights
I'm just saying, if the community remains like this, the game will eventually have very few users. |

| @seed100 If we do that more and more mature people will stop foruming/playing and imatures/trolls will start "foruming". |

@LordPerfecto Exactly. I cannot make it anymore clearer then this, the community needs to get better. I'm not saying we need to make it absolutely perfect, but just a little bit better. |
