Knowing that ROBLOX is trying to communicate and work more with their clients/users, I have been thinking of a way we could get more communication from the admins or mods to the community.
Newspapers are something that can be informative and encourage contact with others, and I think we could use one. No, this isn't anything like the ROBLOX Blog. Included in the newspaper, we would have user-written articles, polls and more chosen by the ROBLOX staff. There could be new article authors every three months, elected by ROBLOX staff determined by a test article.
A test article would be an article on the topic of your choice, that you have a certain amount of time to compose. Upon finishing the article, you'd enter it to the ROBLOX staff and they'd decide if it was up to par. Within a day, you would receive a message telling you have been accepted, and what your first article topic would be. From there, you'd set out to get information and begin writing! Another option would be a free topic article, and you would choose your own topic.
For polls, they could be optional, or required on certain articles. You could engage with your readers by asking them questions and seeing their opinions. Now, why only have the chosen authors for three months? I know this doesn't seem like a long term, but it will give others the chance to get in and begin their job. There could be up to ten or more authors, giving forty ROBLOXians the chance to get out there and become a little detective.
To insure someone doesn't take up a double term and someone else's chance, if you'd recently been an author you would be auto denied, or not allowed to enter at all. After those three months are up, you would be put back on and able to get another term.
A few suggested rules for the entry process and articles: You must be a confirmed 13+ account. Use correct grammar and spelling. Don't use too many faces, or don't use them at all. Avoid topic that can offend a good amount of people. (Racism, religion)
A few suggestions for the authors: Don't be scared to put a bit of humor in there, no one wants a dull read. Be detailed, mention places, creators and more. Try to sneak in a few interviews with creators, that could make a simple article really interesting! Don't stress your opinion onto others. Avoid topics that could cause flame wars.
I think this could really improve communication between ROBLOX staff and users, do you support it? If you support it, please reply saying so. If you don't support this idea, please reply with why you don't.
Any questions? Leave a reply and I will respond as soon as I can.

..Well, I'm just suggesting we have more communication through this. Also, I don't play whatever "club penguin" is, so I had no idea.

First of all, I compliment you on this very well written thread. I do enjoy reading texts that are properly spaced out and worded.
Second, I compliment you on this fine idea. Whether or not this will improve interaction between ROBLOX and its members is hard to say, because nothing like it has ever been attempted before. I'd say ROBLOX has been doing a good job recently of listening to its customers, but this seems like it could improve that interaction even more.
In any case, it is worth a shot. It shouldn't take so long to set up. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work, it will be remembered as a good try, though.
I support. |

We could always include all the stuff here in the blog. The blog could become an internet-newspaper!
