My idea is that there should be a buy bc option with robux. Lets say like 30k robux for bc? This is basically meant for those who have made great games for roblox and to show that they get extra rewarded...
Sorry this idea isnt very put together :P |

| This has already been suggested so many times. No. ROBLOX requires money to run, they cannot buy food or pay their employees with virtual green cash. |

Both these given points are true, but are their costs seriously going up?
They're pretty much forcing people to buy Builder's Club right now, unlike back in 2009-2010 when it was completely optional. Every single good hat is a large amount of Robux (even 100R$ is a lot for us, that's logging in for 100 days), they removed the "glitched" places, the ambassador program, added a bunch of Builder's Club features to encourage people to buy it.
Are they going bankrupt or something?
I would buy Builder's Club with Robux, but not with real cash. So they aren't losing anything.

@Shooter, 1) Blog posts in 2008 indicate that keeping your place after your BC expires was a glitch. 2) They're a business. They're all about marketability, so of course they will add more BC features to encourage people to buy it, 3) The ambassador program was shut down for a good reason. It served very little purpose, and wasn't effective. 4) BC is still completely optional. ROBLOX is an online building game, for the most part, so why do expensive hats matter at all? |

It's doesn't help that they advertise it as a building game, but then when you come in, you realize that it actually isn't, and it's actually about spamming in comment sections, playing one game for a month straight, then wishing you had Builder's Club so life on ROBLOX wouldn't suck. You are very seriously limited without Builder's Club rights.
Can you make enough tickets for ads to advertise the place you built? Nope.
Can you buy any of the cool hats they say you can when they encourage you to make an account to "customize your look"? Nope. They show all these cool hats that you can only get if you're popular and/or rich.
I do realize that they said it was a glitch. But why leave it that way for five years? I have used this metaphor before... and I will once more. If you let a dog pee on the furniture as a puppy, it becomes used to it and thinks things are supposed to be that way. Then one day, you kick him because he did so. He'd be confused and angry.
I don't necessarily support this thread, but I do think if and NBC players game gets a certain amount of success that they should be able to gain another place slot for free. Take DeadzoneZackZak for example. He threw away Deadzone for Battlefield. We could have both if they granted requests for additional places slots (maybe max 3 or 4?) for successful NBC members of the community. They really discourage people and steer them away from Builder's Club because you start to realize how necessary it actually is.
