The positives outweigh the negatives.

If we had to pay to play ROBLOX, there would less idiots running around. Plus, the devs could afford to give us cool updates.

Also, there would be no NBCers complaining about how "unfair BC is". It's a service people pay for. Get over it.

All in all, ROBLOX going pay to play would be an amazing thing in terms of community improvement and website improvement.

Don't forget the idiots' mothers.

Plus, ROBLOX would lose revenue because hardly anyone would pay.

Negatives:
Leaked download
Less Players
Leaked download would mean spammers will come.
There are lots more.

See? You're the type of noob that making ROBLOX P2P would remove.

"Hardly anyone would pay"

No...everyone would have to pay. That's the point of a P2P system.

They'd actually make less money. A huge portion of the player base is free to players, and making it pay to play would alienate them and lose ad revenue. It's a lose/lose situation. A small percentage of the free players would get BC, yes, but they'd lose more than they'd gain.

@LaPwn

I may have not have BC, but it seems I am way more mature than you are in regards to this matter.

Now, isn't it time you went down for a nap?

Plus "everyone HAS to pay" does not mean everyone CAN or WILL pay. That's obvious.

Maybe instead of saying "No", you could back up that no with some facts?

Oh wait, you probably can't. P2P is honestly a good route to go in terms of updates and money for ROBLOX.

@Tyler

I know what you're saying, but think about it.

If people torrent your game and see how cool it is, they might decide to support it and buy the game.

If they don't, well it was free.

No...P2P would mean they would get money for us to play.


You don't get this, do you?

Roblox isn't something you can torrent. It's played via the website interface and launched in a barebones program that basically makes the data saved on the site (places) playable.

The fact that you think the majority of the ROBLOX community would know what torrenting is is also humorous.

P2P would destroy ROBLOX. Free to play games that go P2P are guaranteed failure. It's simple business, just because you force people to pay for something doesn't mean they will. They'll go play something else instead.

Everyone agrees that this idea is terrible, so it's pretty clear that it's wrong.

You think the fact that everyone is disagreeing with you is there problem because you have a perfect opinion that would work no matter what?

Idiot, P2P would mean less players, meaning less advertisers, meaning less money. Don't criticize people for having logic.
