Every year, we should have a public vote for like, 8 people who meet every 3 months or so via a chat or whatever and discuss the problems or issues or changes that should be made to anything Roblox has, then the Roblox staff open ears to them after and hear what they have to say and change their direction in programming/marketing/development in general of Roblox.

This will help Roblox staff open up to the community without them being blindsided due to the masses of people who are unreasonable (example of 'classic is better, studio '13 is really bad because it just is').

This would solve so many problems of the staff communicating to the user base and would, in general, resolve nearly all of our complaints.

Roblox is just trolling us, if they weren't then they would listen to all the hate about updates, bans , and fake titles etc.

2013 Is NOT bad if you have a normal capatible computer with a good graphic card.

It's just the toolbox I don't like.

It's not ROBLOX's fault that you are too stubborn to change and the new studio.

If you looked over at a prior post from Shedletsky, he asked what people prefer: Classic or 2.0 studio and why. Everyone blatantly said classic without any reasoning other than 'it's easier to use,' with no explanation of how despite how much Shedletsky asked about it.

With that in mind, a committee would be able to discuss these things without being blindsided by nostalgia or the bandwagon driving their opinions and rather solid logic and *genuine* community preference.

ROBLOX wouldn't select the right people for the comittee. Rather than picking some intelligence from the Scripters subforum they would pick the freemodeling front pagers which the noob community like.

They can have maybe two representatives from the scripting community, two representatives from the clan community, two representatives from the famous front page community, and two representatives from a grand total count.

It'd have a little bit of all the roblox communities put in there and would diversify opinions and what is spoken a lot more.

No. No representitives from the front page. They are unintelligent and don't know how corporations work.

@thedestroyer That's a really bad generalization. If you watch the front page, you'd see that the ones who are seemingly incapable of doing very much to help the community don't even stay on the front page for longer than a week.

The ones that do stay, Apocalypse Rising, Paintball, etc. have fairly intelligent developers who could be very good representatives of the front page.

@RobloxCitizen This isn't about Studio 2013. Please post that in the Studio 2013 forum.

@Frozen Exactly, that's the point. It's like a board of Robloxians who are more logical and understanding who can converse about the issues and whatnot from a Roblox player perspective, not from a staff perspective.

I agree with the OP. There are intelligent front pagers as well. On the other hand, there are way more intelligent people that are not on the front page but created awesome games or are still making them.

Frozen, why would you make the assumption they'd have no say?

Leweird, I agree. That's why front pagers only make up two of the 8 reps.

Sassle, I see where you'd get that, however there could be thing put in motion to prevent this.

Roblox, you must've misinterpreted what I said. I put that in parentheses as an example of a type of complaint people make that has zero reasoning behind it other than 'its simply hard to use.'

I agree, I made a gross generalization on the front page. But once again, there will always be more FM games compared to creative developed ones. And seeing what the majority of the community plays, I can't trust them to vote for the few creative developers on the front page.

@Neo

A figurehead is someone who does something by order of someone else but pretends to do it of their own free will.

In other words, Frozen is right. Figureheads do not have any say. They are simply there to divert the public's attention.

I don't believe that, thereal. Figureheads don't have power but have a lot of say, if you will.

Someone who has millions of place views can't add a new feature to Roblox, but can drive a large group of people's will to do something (like clan audit logs that started from ColourTheory).

While they'll just be a figurehead, they'll give a lot of motivation to the administration to do something as they represent the community as a whole. Of course they're not admins, though. They're just regular players.

Thedestroyer, there are three kinds of people on the front page:

People who make bad games and only stay there for a week.

People who make bad games but stay there for years by switching the game title over and over to something new (Usually copied games or misleading titles that earn them millions of views).

People who make decent games and stay there for years because, well, it's a fun and decent game.

Only the last would be eligible to represent as one of the two front page committee members.

The users who make the decent games are from the Scripters subforum, so I still don't find reason for a front page representitive.

Because Gusmanak doesn't go on that forum, daxter doesn't, d4rk doesn't, and most of the people who've made really decent games and got on the front page don't go on scripters forum.
