This is coming from someone who has been through every egg hunt.
Roblox has only had bad history with the egg hunts. 2008 was by far the most succesful, not too much to complain about. But in 2009, the users got really annoyed and spammed Roblox for the egg hunt. In turn, there was no egg hunt, and the Roblox community acted as if it was there right to have one.
In 2010 when they did an egg hunt once more, the users did nothing but complain, saying they couldn't get eggs, or it was glitchy, it was delayed. The fact that the servers were overloaded because there were so many users online made the hunt delayed. The last eggs dropped were actually as late as summer.
In 2012, the egg hunt was a disaster. There was a terrible glitch, and or exploit that caused everyone in the place to get every egg.
After the history that Roblox has had with egg hunts, there is no good reason for there to be another. |

People like you suck the fun out of this game
You may think it's harsh, but it's true.
There is no reason whatsoever for them not to have one. |

| Egg hunts and other events are the only reason I'm still here, and I'm sure other people enjoy them. |

| I agree, I do think the egg hunts are fun. I am just saying this from the point of view of the Roblox team. They put hard work into doing something and all they get are ungrateful players. |

That's nice to know besides the fact that nobody will care for your opinion and if there is a egg hunt that's tough nickels for you.
Really, don't whine about the hunt. It may get messed up, but so what.
2008 was good you're saying?
Hah.
I don't know if you know, but If you saw the comments during that time you'd see "HOW GET DIZ EG"

People were grateful for all of them, especially the 2012 one
The fact that a select few tried to ruin it for others by exploiting does not mean the whole community disliked it. |

Does it matter?
It is not like EVERYONE had to use glitches and exploits
Some people earned it
Some people WANT the egg hunt |

Regardless of what Roblox does for any sort of event at any time in its history, there will be comments like that. That is simply the nature of Roblox.
2008 was a relatively successful hunt. But it spoiled the users and they wanted more. It was what followed that makes it sour for me. |

I want to clarify this with everyone!
I did not say I do not want an egg hunt. I just said that there is no reason for one, looking how it has gone it the past few years.
I know everyone was grateful for the 2012 hunt, but the hunting was ruined by glitches or exploits.
Also, I don't want to sound like a nostalgic old user, but the Egg Hunts felt more fun in my personal opinion when they were dropped in every place. |

"You have your opinions

I believe I speak for the older more mature Roblox community. I also believe this is probably the opinion of many people on the Roblox team. |

| So if you were just stating that, this thread was pretty pointless, everybody knows this already, just some others dont care for the fact its just a privilige, but since most mmos dont it perfectly, robloxians get false expectations. |

Are you implying that those who want the egg hunt are immature and young?
And who said the staff didnt want it?
You are making random, unsupported assumtions on their opinions in which they did not verify nor approve of |

"Older more mature"
Don't pull that garbage on me.
Everyone back in 08 was just your stereotypical 12'er. Just less prone to fighting because there have been more topics to fight about.

I am not sure I know what you are getting at. If you mean that there is no way that Roblox could do an egg hunt in every public place now, with all of the new users, that is definitely a possibility.
They found a way around it in 2010 though, not without issues, and a lot less users. No, it's not a good idea, but I am only speaking what I'd like to see if they can make it possible. |

As Blizz said, the egg hunt is a PRIVLIEGE to have
Free hats/eggs, what more can you expect or demand?
Exploited, glitched or not |

I lived through the time when this happened. I saw the topics get posted. I personally saw Telamon post, expressing his displeasure in the community, in 2009 when there was no egg hunt. The community itself made it obvious when it was spamming hate towards roblox for ripping them off of an egg hunt that they were never entitled to in the first place. I don't need evidence on this. It's obvious, it's on record. If you want to dig your way back to 2009, do it. You will find it.

You are right. I was definitely the average new Robloxian back in 2008. There is no denying that. I speak as a veteran of 5 years, who has seen this community grow over time. And who has the ability to understand human emotion greater than someone who is younger than I am.

But there are ways to FIX IT
Exploits patched Spoilers, well, it is the persons fault to continue reading the spoiler! But, as you said, the community was UNHAPPY when the egg hunt didnt happen Do you want unhappy users, or grateful, enjoyed users?
I find it displeasing how you constantly state that you are a veteran and how you have been on the site for a long while
I am sure other '09ers like the egg hunt
A few people =\= The whole thousands of the community |

I think everyone is missing my main point. I personally want an egg hunt. I agree, it's an awesome thing. I am juts saying that from the Roblox teams point of view, there is no reason to have one.
It's like giving a cookie to a kid who won't stop wining about not having a cookie. And when he does get a cookie, he doesn't like it. That's what it's felt like the last couple of years. I will admit, 2012 was a success, aside from the exploiting incident. You might think that it's fine regardless because you got free hats, but it's a lot of hard work gone to waste on Roblox's end. |

'10 was good, there used to be scripts that lured eggs into bricks, and you would camp there.
Also, some people actually find them fun. |
