Let's see how many people fail to read this post, looking at the title only. Let's have a look.

So, this is a bundle of ideas. Three ideas to be presise.
They are:
Quests,
Something I dub "next ban punishment",
And music.

Starting in order:
Quests.
Quick dispellant:
I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT DAILY CHALLENGES, MORE ROBLOX BADGES, OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. Read.

Basically, you know how sets work?
You can gather multiple items and bind them into a single bundle, or set?
Quests have the same concept, but are for badges. In fact, can someone name quests something different? I don't like the word quest so much, but oh well. Best I can come up with.

Like a set, you can place any number of badges into your quest. You don't have to own the badges, but it's recommended for reasons I am about to state.

To participate in a quest, you have to go onto the page for that quest and click "commence quest". The page will have a nice decal for its cover, a nice DESC, comments, recommendations, and it will also state all the badges you need to complete the quest (You will see a green tick for each badge you have.)

During a quest, you will get a completion percentage based upon a very basic forumla I shouldn't even have to state. This is actually useful in scripting.

Like you associate places to groups, you can associate quests to places.

Scirpting I said two sentences ago? There will be some new commands for quests.
CheckQuestAccept checks if someone has commenced a quest.
CheckQuestCompletion checks the target's completion percentage of a quest. Use 100% for complete quests. Use arguments such as <, >, =, =/= to change the percentage.

Muuving on.
Next ban punishment.
I want to know a MINIMAL punishment for my next ban, if I ever get banned.
So, when you get banned, something like this appears:
"This is your Xth ban for [Crime here]. You have been sentenced for a detainment of [Punishment here]. The next ban should you get one will be AT LEAST worth a detainment of [Punishment here]. Please abide by the rules of roblox so we don't ban you for that long!"

Hey, hey guys!
This is a repost of the same idea because I was so sick of one thing in that post:
Ignorance.
People said that banning is based on severity. Which is true.
But since when do people always fluctuate in the banning system!?
It's nearly always a MINIMAL punishment.
And I even answered that in my initial post!
People were so stupid as to not see a prefix: At least.
So I'm going to make a rantwall of said prefix.
AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEEST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST. AT LEAST.

Got it!? It says AT LEAST in that example!
Took you long enough to understand. Now shut up about it.

One thing that would currently be a legitimate argument is that banning isn't cultimative.
I mean, if you get banned three times for spamming, the highest punishment being a 1 day ban, you will get an harrassment reminder should you harrass someone. That's not fair. It doesn't matter what your crime is, the next punishment should always be more severe than the previous one.
Always. There we go, now flawless

Anyway, there are a number of minor benefits, such as its a deterrant, but the main one is clarity.

Muuving on:
Music.
Roblox: make music, or hire someone else to do it.
We've proven countless times that the public are imbiciles, so you're clearly not giving freedom on music again.

But music is very helpful for ambience of a game/moment.
What does this mean younger readers?
Ambience is the "mood" of something.
So the ambience of the sea could be considered peaceful, blue and calm.
The ambience of a war zone could be considered red, violent, bloody, etc.
When exploited properly, ambience is hands down one of the most important parts of a game. And you're stopping us from exploiting it.

If you want a horror game, you want scary music which we don't have. For a war game, fast, violent music is very good, which we also don't have. The TL;DR of my point:
Make some music, or hire someone to make music.
I have a few ideas for people to hire if you need them, but I won't share. >:D

And there is a fourth idea, but I can't be bothered to do it.
Sorry.

Basically, a set of gears that power up if you have more gears in the set.

Support.
The music is a must. It just adds a simple touch to a game that no other feature can match.

I like the ideas, but can't you open your own music?
Just open up YouTube, type in "Scary music." and bam, there is your hassle-free music.

People can just complain that it's not the right music, or that there should be more, or that there should be terrible hit songs, etc... I think instead of one sound track or music to play in a game, people can be more satisfied with their own music.

Then again, music could change in games, e.g getting faster or more dramatic in scary games.

It's a half and half for me for the music.

@Summer: Listening to scary music from a different site is fine for a player, but not for a creator. It doesn't... feel right. You get this feeling that something is wrong constantly if you're making a "professional standard" game if there's inapropriate music (And silence is music. Sort of.)

@Summer If you type "Scary Music" in YouTube, odds are you will get screamers OR justin bieber (Which is worse).

The quests are scriptable, the music WAS removed for a reason. It won't come back.

1] Badges are overrated, just script it in your games and give the badges to players (And add a "QUEST COMPLETE: QUESTNAMEHERE" badge for when you do complete your quest)

2] Ok

3} Yes.

Well, I can happily drop ze quests.

But,
"the music WAS removed for a reason. It won't come back."
-It was removed for a reason that is not possible with my method.

Support Cubed.

Quest could be renamed:

- Mission
- Enterprise
- Adventure
- Expedition
- Journey (probably too similar to quest)

Quests- support.
Minimum ban - This seems quite pointless (and yes I did read it all). Bans are based on severity, so simply saying your next ban will be at least the lowest level ban is pointless.
Music - support.
