And why?

I say no beacuse it lets people with slow computer play a wee bit faster than their average speed.
But then you have JC and they just ruin it..

its cheating because you are giving yourself an advantage over those who are not using it

I don't see how that would be considered cheating. It's a property Roblox offers you.

It is exactly like giving you extra speed.
Or making your gun shoot faster.
Now would you classify that as cheating?

That's the fault of Roblox but it exists entirely in the realm of the game. It's not "cheating" and while it may be "unfair", you can't complain about that because the rules allow it.

Technically it isn't, though it is at the same time.

It isn't because the option to change it is in Studio, it's not like you have to inject your own code.

It is because it's not necessarily using the game as how it was intended, you're "exploiting" the usage of these options to get an advantage over others.

FPS throttling is just like steroids.
It's banned from sports because it is giving you an unfair advantage.
And explain to me how FPS throttling is different the steroids.

Roblox does not justify what is fair and what is not for us.

FPS throttling does not only increase your FPS.
It makes EVERYTHING you do fast.
Walk speed, jumping, fire-rate, you name it.

Lets compare it to guns.

Some people use guns for good while others use it for bad.

Like toady I played Roblox on a 2005 Windows XP Laptop :D

@Soar, it appears that way to others because our FPS is much less than theirs.

In a sense, imagine that you're a second or two ahead of everyone else in the world.

well, about 1/5 of ROBLOX Accounts are in at least one group, so they want to promote more gaming, fun stuff for kids. They can always reduce lag and try to prevent exploits, but the point is... it's not possible to prevent this from happening.

moo, have a foot race with somebody who is FPS throttling.
You will notice a huge difference in speed.
FPS throttling does not bring roblox to the speed it is meant to run at like you are suggesting.
It simply increases your roblox speed to give you higher FPS.

FPS throttling indirectly gives you more speed. It's an exploit.
