Re: The methods of getting the new gifts are very one-sided.

In most cases, you'd have to have builder's club to get the gifts. They used to have ways of getting gifts for example, putting "wood" in a description of your game and you'd get the wanwood antlers from christmas...2007 I believe? Now it just seems to be things involving spending robux, getting tons of place visits, etc.

I came back to check out the gifts and only managed (keep in mind that I didn't try very hard) to get the news gift, which hopefully everyone got. The others, involving buying videos for your place and whatnot didn't interest me. I have 700 robux left over from when I did have BC, but I really didn't want to spend it to get one crummy gift and make a video I don't even want on my game, on my game.

Just seems like it's leaning heavily onto BC member's sides. If Christmas is about giving, why must you pay around 1,000 Robux to upload a video to your game? (Or at least it used to be 1k.) Not to mention, the gift costs 550 Robux.

I don't care really that I didn't get virtual items because I haven't joined a game in at least a year, and I only post every other week or so. Just felt like getting this out. Food for thought.

It's mostly being richer than others. These gifts are mostly for rich people.

I hope next year they close the forums during a certain present's release so that people won't post it on forums. That's the main reason why they don't do hunts anymore qq

That sounds about right. I'm glad to see a thread that thought was put into.

Last year, there were at least 5 non-bc presents. This year- 1.
Next year, you pay to look at the presents.

Noticed this too, was about to make a thread about it. Even worse is that the few gifts which aren't basically BC only are going to be horribly expensive to obtain for free (I'm looking at you, Lucky Gift of Sevens). Absolutely crushing to have that glimmer of hope, then be told that you're not rich enough to get the gift.

Next year: OOH A FREE GIFT! *it opens, and glimmers of heavenly light shine on roblox. Then, its only 10 tix and everyone is depressed because all the other gifts are "YOU MUST HAVE ATLEAST 100000 ROBUX TO HAVE THIS GIFT" or " BUY LIFETIME OBC" "HAVE THE NUMBER 1 GAME"

I'm serious about this.
I wonder how gifts will be earned 2 years from now? (if ROBLOX isn't p2p yet)

"Christmas is about Jesus."

Where is ROBLOX when you need him. But yeah I agree with you on this, it seems very heavy on spending money. Not doing fun things to obtain them.

In a few years, either the population crumbles (which it is starting to do, their is no friendship between people anymore), or almost everything is BC-only.

I don't care personally that I did not get the gifts, but it is just sad to see how things are becoming.
