"Even if that was earlier in the year, there is no way THREE MILLION MORE PEOPLE came to ROBLOX in that amount of time."

Also, if there were that many BC users, ROBLOX would be pushing out more stuff faster. Let's do the math.

Say everyone got basic BC at $6 a month.

Let's shoot like you guys want to and say 10 million (Just for giggles).

That would be $60,000,000 a MONTH. That's $720 million a year.


That's $280 million shy of 1 billion dollars.



Look how this site runs. If ROBLOX even had HALF a billion to spend each year, don't you think things would be better? Hm? If they had tons of money, they could do so many things faster. We might not even experience a near lag-free experience in each game. Who knows?



All I know is that your math is faulty, your argument is faulty, and you know NOTHING about businesses. (Probably because you are self-entitled)

It's not called wild guesses. It's called common sense. It doesn't take a genius to understand that ROBLOX needs money like any business.

Why would they spend so many man hours which add up to a hefty some of cash (labor isn't cheap) just to develop and optimize ROBLOX to run on a mobile device. Do you know how amazing that is? I can play ROBLOX with something in my pocket. No long do I have to boot up a huge computer to simply play a game. These types of advances cost MONEY.

Money that comes from BUILDERS CLUB. ROBLOX can't just run its day to day operations off of Ad Revenue. It has to have BC. ROBLOX entices people to BC by offering cool features. If someone can't afford BC, that is fine. No one is right to judge you for not wanting to pay. That's their decision.

What you seem to fail to understand though, dominator, is that no BC simply means much much less money which means ROBLOX can't run.


Now, would your arguments matter if ROBLOX shutdown all because they didn't have BC? I thought not.

You two are so clueless it's sad.


First off:

"Ever heard of alts?"

Oh, cute. Too bad creating a bunch of alts doesn't count as a "unique visitor". 10 accounts run by one guy still counts as one unique visitor. He can't play on all of them at once, and he wouldn't.


Good try though.


Oh, and I never praised ROBLOX in this. In fact, I have complaints with ROBLOX as well. I'm simply saying why ROBLOX needs money.

(You know, because businesses need money.)


Also, please don't try and call me a genius (Thank you though). I know you are throwing out facts that aren't even true (That's called a lie, kiddo), but you have some chance in this world.

Oh, this argument.


"UM WELL IF THEY CAN AFFORD [TO GIVE 20 IPADS AWAY THEY CAN ALSO DO [Insert petty request here]"


First off, it's called a promotional. They were giving ipads away as "a promotion targeted at ROBLOX game developers that will give them an opportunity to win a brand-new iPad 3."

[Source: http://blog.roblox.com/2012/11/roblox-mobile-gaming-is-coming-to-ipad/]



Also, "A unique visitor is a statistic describing a unit of traffic to a website, counting each visitor only once in the time frame of the report. This statistic is relevant to site publishers and advertisers as a measure of a site's true audience size, equivalent to the term "Reach" used in other media."


[Source: Google (define unique vistors)]


That means they only count one person per IP address. Your computer has only one IP address, so spamming alts does nothing.

So they had enough money to pay for this "Promotion."

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY MONEY MONEY!!!
YOU JUST NEED YOUR MONEY MONEY MONEY!!!
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE PRICE TAG!!!
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE CHA CHANGE CHA CHANGE!!!

That song from the Monopoly Electronic Banking commercial sum's of the the mind's of Roblox developer's.

Yep. Like that article said (did you read it at all?), they were attempting to raise awareness by having a giveaway. Companies do it all the time. There is no doubt that many more people know about ROBLOX for iDevices since they had an opportunity for people to actually win a REAL WORLD item. They wouldn't do it if the costs outweighed the advantages.

Oh, and they got that money from BC subscriptions (whoa, this again!).

Anyway, I see that you won't ever truly understand how to run a business or that money is important in a business, so I will just leave it at that.


Any argument that you have from here on out can most likely be countered by one of my previous posts. I have sources, and I have common sense about businesses (seriously, even YOU have a chance at understanding!)

Random, you seem to be taking that article out of context.


They were raising awareness among the ROBLOX USERS. Not some hobo. They are raising awarness among their target audience.

I hope you understood that. If you don't, there is nothing I can do for you.


Anyway, refer to my previous post about how I'm going to leave it at that.


NOW everything you guys say can most likely be proven false by one of my previous statements. If not, I'll post why you're wrong again.

They wouldn't care to raise awareness about ROBLOX coming to iDevices to hobos.


They are talking to people like us who would ACTUALLY USE IT. Hobos don't play ROBLOX on iDevices.


Think.

Use your brain before you type out a poorly-written sentence.

Yes. I'm sure a lot ROBLOXians heard about it.


Why would you think I would be talking about a hobo? If I've been talking about ROBLOX and ROBLOX players this whole time, there is no way I'm talking about a hobo.


Of course, you (probably) knew that. You're just trying to prove a point.


You have failed. Come back later when you understand how business works.



Good day.

Well after thinking about this Roblox is simply trying to make it atop of the business pyramid. You see if you notice Roblox is increasing it's age rage to 13+ and with this Roblox make's more money. Roblox is also increasing it's awareness through this app.

Example)

Random consumer in app store stumble's across Roblox app, decide's to try it out. Make's a account and later learn's Roblox is on the internet and then there's a new person on Roblox.

Roblox is a bit greedy, BUT there simply trying to get to the top of the internet gaming franchise. BC is how there gonna succeed in doing this. That's why Roblox is adding this BC feature's so people of all age's will buy BC and then buy robux after robux after robux slowly putting money in Roblox pocket as well as making there way to the top of the online gaming pyramid.
