The games are crap. ODer paradise, fake titles, and free models. Something needs to be done.

What games would you like to see on the front page? I, as well as many users here, would be interested in playing some lesser known yet still awesome ROBLOX games. Feel free to share them here.

If you think a game has a false title, send it in a PM to NobleDragon. Otherwise, we don't care how people build their places. There's nothing wrong with free models.

@Briguy

Perhaps you don't care, but a well made game is much more fun to play than someone who spent 5 minutes throwing something together with free models. They don't deserve the fame that the front page gives.

Yes they do, how else would they get to the front page? by sitting around doing nothing? They worked SOMEHOW to get to the front page.

There are some amazing games out there, that took months of work. Incredible detail and scripting, and yet have never seen the front page. Quality is being overun by free model RP games and false titles.

We agree the Games home page needs improving... badly. We're working right now on some updates to the game sort which we'll be bringing online soon. This means better promotion of great games, spotlighting deserving (but perhaps unnoticed) places, and better handling of games that aren't as advertised. So stay tuned.

I've actually asked people what kind of games they like

Some of them I remember that got a lot of answers where:

Roleplay games (maybe RPGs)

Tycoons (even though i dont see them that much anymore)

Survival/Shooters (Ex: zombie survival)

The rest I forgot

A front page that doesn't promote games by player count, but rather by returning players over the past week?

I think that would promote games that are fun to play more than the current system.

There is nothing wrong with free models, just don't make your game full of them. Also I agree with the fact that most NOT ALL games on the front page are not actually what the title says they are, and that games that people took hours of work for people to build and c-frame should be looked at more.

Anyway, On topic...


Eliminating the "Multiple Picture" thing would help. It's awkward when going to join a place and you see that it has like, 20 alternate thumbnails, None of them having anything to do with the place.

RBX has been working around He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named for years now. Remember the promotion of Annie's Tunnel Cruiser via a banner? Total circumvention of normal advertising so that a great game could get popular. Totally unfair, yet totally deserved. Good to hear from chiefjustus they're working on something better than banners.

For what it's worth, what I'd like to see are admin-chosen sets of, say, 5 places of a genre, two or three of which would then be spotlighted for a time per votes by the community. Kind of like a cross between contests and the old homepage spotlighting that used to be done. I have no idea how successful it would be, though.

I'm so quoting that "free models are fine" comment... Am I right to say that it's a bit hard to moderate titles? Read comments when in doubt (if possible).
