I feel like ROBLOX has become a nasty and hate-filled place. These are ten ways to make ROBLOX a happier place that won't make people quit on a daily basis.

10. Avoid name calling. When you fire off that one "noob," you will create a firestorm. Nobody is offended by it, the firestorms (at least in my experience) are fueled by you killing a person and then correcting them on what noob really means (by the way, noob means newbie. Stop getting it mixed up.) and then they get ultra mad and give it their all to be a total pain to you.

9. Learn how to use grammar/spelling. I can't even BEGIN to tell you how many ROBLOXians think that they're so great with grammar, And Then They Type Like This, or use the incorrect form of your or their. For example, "Your such a big pain" or "The badge is over their." I'd say 15% of all active and free-chatting ROBLOXians need to work on their grammar. This is first grade stuff, guys.

8. Don't bring age into the picture. It's a game for kids, people. Is it really an insult to call someone a kid? No. Stop treating it as such. Plus, when you do vouch for how old you are, they say "Yeah right" and don't believe you. So many people think that they're older than me when they're 12 (I'm older than 12, and also older than 13. How much older? Can't say that.)

7. Be original, if you can help it. I understand that NBCers can't afford much, but that does not mean that you should wear Shaggy, Chill, and some junk clothes that look exactly how you look in actuality. Wear something you wouldn't have in actuality! Wear a blue helmet with devil horns (http://www.roblox.com/Azurewrath-Duke-Of-Demons-item?id=82332418) or maybe a cobra on your head (http://www.roblox.com/Snakes-on-a-Robloxian-item?id=29532214)! Stop wearing Beautiful Hair for Beautiful People! You aren't beautiful people anymore! Stop wearing Sk8r Boi and Sk9r Boi! I think I can effectively say that a good 80% of all of ROBLOX once wore this hat and said to themselves, "Yes. I think this looks good." 60% are probably still wearing it, only because they haven't built up the money for some other cliche thing like Shiny Teeth.

6. Stop being obnoxious about your interests. If you like My Little Pony, that is totally fine. If you do not like it, that is totally fine. If you do or do not like Pokemon, that is totally fine. Do not go on a rampage against people for their opinion. It is their opinion and they are entitled to it. If nobody asks for your opinion, try not to spout it, either. This leads to fights between you, the intelligent reader, and someone who did not read this post.

5. Don't flaunt your wealth. I don't mean that you can't wear your Dominus hats, but I do mean that you shouldn't go to servers and say, "Hey everybody! I'm rich! Unless you have more than 1895628476 Robux, you're inferior!" because it isn't true. If you do that to a newbie who has been a member for three hours, you are the inferior one.

4. Don't go around asking for donations. This one doesn't require much explanation. You bother everyone around you when you ask for donations. People who have that money bought, traded, and sold things while collecting place visits to make that cash and they aren't going to share it with a beggar, especially if said beggar has a premium membership.

3. Don't stereotype. Not all OBCs swim in money. I've been saving up for a while to buy gifts, and I have 979 R as of 6:21 PM in Florida on 12/5/12. I doubt that will be enough to buy three. But that's just judging by this year's Halloween gifts. Last year's Christmas gifts ranged between 1 Tix to 3000 R or maybe more, my memory of prices while NBC isn't that great since everything was out of my range.

2. Don't send messages requesting that one joins a group. I personally have no interest in war groups. Unfortunately, I'm a minority on this. Just stop sending out those messages, nobody wants to join your group with a dumb acronym.

1. Just play the game. Bad design? Leave. Bad people? Leave. Bad weapons? LEAVE. Nobody wants to hear you whine about a game.

And those are my top 10 ROBLOX rules of courtesy. If you see this post, I apologize for having it be so lengthy. But I also hope that these rules had an impact on you and that you follow them. Thank you for your time and consideration.

10, 9, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, and 1 will never happen

7 isn't courtesy, it's a matter of opinion (but i agree)
no one does 5 anyway except LMaDers

Well, thanks for having your criticism be constructive for this little abomination. I'm surprised it got 3 replies that quickly, too. I know that this attempt is probably futile, but if I implant these helpful thoughts into just one person's head and they follow them, it will all have been for something.

You, thunder, are smarter than the average bea- Robloxian.
Plus, I like you even more, due to the similarities of our names.

Legit is short for legitimate, which means real. These are suggestions that you see, are possible, and some people follow, yes? Thus they are legitimate by its actual definition. I don't know what the Internet has done to it but it doesn't look good.

Thunder,

Except for the fact that legitimate is characterized by the dictionary as "Conforming to the law or to rules", not "real". Which makes Kevin's statement absolutely more than true and valid. Your suggestions are NOT legitimate by actual definition.
And even then, it's petty to try and defend yourself by using denotations instead of connotations.

So either way, you are very, very wrong.

Although zombie848's grammar point is thought provoking as to which would be better between correctness and no choice and freedom without being correct, none of the rest of you have valid points except maybe kevin. Everyone else dissing these ideas are violate at least three of them. And, again, these are just suggestions. Calm down and don't be a jerk just because you don't agree.

Excuse me.
These aren't ideas.
There are your own fairy tale rules you want to impose on a society you cannot control.
This post is in direct violation of S&I's rules, like multiple (not just Kevin), have pointed out.
I'm asking you to leave this thread or go post it to a more appropriate forum but I'll report it for misconduct if I see it again.

Are you honestly just throwing these out without any consideration? Nobody has pointed anything out except for you because you personally disagree with this. People have only been saying that they disagree. I intended for these to be ideas for people to think about, not hate for no clearly established reason. If you're going to continually tell me to move this, tell me where. If you're going to report this, I hope the ROBLOX admins take the time to read through this and consider how much of a stubborn and rude person you're being.

I read this; but I read it as if I was reading a suggestion for a new sticky. >.>
And, like I am with almost everything else... I'm neutral.

LOL@HYPOCRITE

Anyways, these are mostly suggestions on something that is community-wise and directed towards the players, not the mods. This is not a true suggestion and shouldn't be on the boards. This isn't Suggestions, Ideas & PSAs.

Look, ROBLOX will NEVER be perfect. It is slowly declining into a deep, dark hellhole of no return and it's probably going to stay like that. This is why I basically quit (but for some reason I'm on S&I).

A way to make ROBLOX a little more nice is to get rid of war groups. I myself love war groups but they do get dirty a lot more than anything else in this site. The problem with getting rid of war groups is that too many people would quit without them. So its a win lose situation. Also no offsite links.
