I feel that the description of the Thriftshop Fedora (hat on my head) should be changed due to the reference of stealing clothing, a often illegal act. I understand it is a reference to a popular song, so maybe they could use a different lyric of the song.

Most people aren't so uptight to take it like that, I doubt they'd change it.

I find it funny that they'd make a reference to a song with vulgar language, but I don't much care, since my girlfriend turns that up to volume 50 in my car.

I agree, I am not like that, however I think it should be brought to attention. It does provide a bad influence among some of the less educated people of this game...

Popping tags? Can't you interpret that as taking the tags off stuff you already bought? I'm not trying to make a serious point with this, but it can be interpreted in different ways. They're not really promoting it. I mean, you could say that the desc. of Cruelean Revenge or whatever it is that says "Revenge is a dish best served cold," promotes locking somebody up in a freezer for copying your homework.

True, I always though of 'popping tags' as like, busting them open (figuratively). Because you're going on a shopping spree and you're just busting the prices wide open.

What am I even talking about, I don't know.

Support, why not?

I suppose you have a point dude who might be directly above me. I see what you are trying to say, but I feel that type of description is a more so.... safe description I guess you could say. This is more direct.

Not the name, the description, and it is a reference to a song with a very catchy saxophone, and the song happens to be about stealing, as is popping tags. And also some people are kinda silly and will take this as a go ahead and they will probably steal because roblox is a very influential game.

Poppin tags means that you buy something, not stealing something, and you take the tag off when you get home.

Poppin' tags:

Stealing. Popping off tags of higher price merchandise and switching for clearance or lower price tags. Thus the references to heavy bags, because the items are actually purchased and bagged at the lower prices. Possibly also removing sensor or ink tags when shoplifting.
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis in Thrift Shop say "I'm gonna pop some tags, only got $20 in my pocket. I'm huntin', lookin' for a comma (4 digit prices)...." "Manuel, he's poppin' tags."

Depends on how you interpret it. If you interpret it as taking the tag off when you get home, it's fine. If you interpret it as stealing, eh, ROBLOX isn't exactly promoting it. Yeah, they say that it was awesome, but really, nobody cares that much (no offense). I mean, the song has been played thousands of times, I'm pretty sure that most people who look at the thrift shop fedora have heard the song and therefore are fine about it referring to the song and not to stealing.

@ T9

This is true, however we have all seen those idiots who taking things on this game for what it says. Someone out there is gunna see this as ROBLOX promoting the act. And I take no offence, I don't care about it to much, I just care about the kid who decides to steal due to roblox being greatly influential in some peoples life.

We are talking about Popping tags, not the song or other parts of the song..... So no, you are wrong, buying things is not stealing.... its buying things......... Popping tags is stealing.
