Almost 50% of ROBLOX (ESTIMATE, NOT EXACT) has alternate accounts. From my experience, I find logging out and logging into other alternates is annoying. I'm not saying it's needed, but there could be an "Alternates" button next to logout on the website. You would have to supply login information to add an account. Please feel free to reply to this thread if you have anything to add.

No, what if your account was stolen? The person that has your account can take anything from any alts of yours.

Well, that would not only be a personal problem...but against the rules too. The only way to get someone's account is if you give out the account details and that is against ROBLOX rules.

Yeah, and ROBLOX can't just fix that issue in a matter of seconds. The thieves have plenty of time to destroy your accounts. You need to fix this problem by yourself.

They could add security such as asking for verification when accessing the account from a different computer/IP Address. The verification must be a secret phrase than the current one being used to login. Maybe one verification works for all alts for convenience.

I have something to add on to this. In your profile, add an "Alternates" section supplying the names of the alts to keep fakers from scamming.

I believe this is a great Idea because I have this account and I have another account that I get on for fun so It would be easier then going through all that trouble.

Well maybe alts can be controllable. If an account is made on the same computer/IP then maybe they will be attached. If one gets banned, then so do the others. This would keep people from making several alternate accounts just to annoy people and not get punished. I think I remember seeing this idea in a post prior to this, but I can't remember who and the title.

If I was notified on why ROBLOX doesn't support alts, my answer may be different.

First of all, it causes more lag, because there are more accounts. Second of all, there are less name choices for new users to choose from with alts. There are more that I can't remeber right now.

First sentence
More memory, I think, that it would cost more money, if they pay for their website per view or space it takes up.

Most of the time, names are just descended from the main. If someone wants there EOBLOX name to randomly be (insertexamplenamehere)alt, then I guess that's too bad. I experience absolutely no lag whatsoever from the ROBLOX Website, ever. If this in fact is a problem with the staff, I don't know what to say. Other than that, the only thing that lags the website is when I have a current instance of the game running while I browse.

If it costed money to make accounts, I would guess that accounts would no longer be free.

I have a few alts, and I don't support this idea, also, the names of them do not relate to my name, please see:

I do not get any lag either, but maybe thats because I have a new Windows 8 computer...

Less name choices.
Thats all I say, besides that ^^^^^^^

Those names are in fact very uncommon. They may be taking the place of someone else's idea for a name, but that is unlikely.Please notice I said most, not all. Wether or not your alts associate with your main, does not matter to me.


Yes, I do realize I spelled ROBLOX wrong. (I misspelled it as EOBLOX)

Still, ROBLOX does not support alts, and that will probably never change.

Usually your computer type doesn't affect its performance, it is usually the internet quality or connection. Less name choices is bad, of course. I don't have anything to counter that. You stopped me in my tracks there.
