Boycotting BC, whilst 2 other people replace my donations.
Not a smart idea.
...Sticky so hard. |

@Espithel
I keep learning new things and finding hidden mistakes people make in constructive criticism. Maybe this will help your sticky in some way? Or wipe out what you've already written?
For example... The price floor. They've been given more than one idea now, and I imagine it's hard for them to know whose idea to listen to, or if they should even listen to them. There's a 40 minute youtube video I watched of a presentation with a man telling how he started an internet riot on something he was working on. The video is called: "Improving Blender's UI"
He eventually found the constructive posts, but then people would bring up good points against the constructive ideas, and it was hard to know whose idea to listen to. No one actually in the forum was knowledgeable in whatever it was that the UI designer needed to do. Just like how we're not knowledgable what Roblox needs to do about the Price Floor. We have replacement ideas, but can they trust it enough to devote their time towards it?
We're mostly builders and scripters, not the kind of people who specialize in the stuff chiefjustus does. I think that's his department.
Anyway... We definitely need to start proving our points with reliable data if we want to make the admins listen. Preferably proving both the problem and solution of something controversial. That's something I find lacks in even the better posts out there. No one writes what they know like how a wikipedia article is written. |

Congrats on having this still replied to. I took a break from ROBLOX for ages and come back to find this. :D

Is there anything in particular why the sticky is so hard to make? |

Minus my current IRL problems (That have for the most part passed) and my laziness, it's generally how I think and write, Gamehero.
I ramble. You've seen it. I ramble. A lot. I talk about myself. A lot. The reason for this is because I struggle at saying what I need to say concisely, so I just say what immediately comes to my head and hope that it's concise enough. That's fine for massive rants, that's not fine for planned sticky-esque threads that have to be... well, concise. When I try to shorten things, I want to make sure they have the same meaning, but I don't know what sections of things alter the meaning. The more I ramble, the more chances I have of saying what I need to say.
I think in fragments. I don't structure my thoughts, because it's all fragmented. Often, I know how the ending of a post will play out before the start. That's fine. I can order anything in any way I want thanks to the magical internet. I just can't do that with a moderation post. It has to be concise and clear.
When I'm thinking about the sticky, I hear sentences, not structures.
"Please note that whilst there are many amazing suggestions, they will be mixed in with many more less-decent suggestions. This can make looking at suggestions a struggle."
"Petitions and polls tend to be an agree/disagree conversation, which is not what S&I is for, nor how constructive criticism is done."
In my opinion, this entire sticky has to be about the size of this post, and I haven't even half done with what I would normally be saying yet.

I understand. I ramble too, but mostly to myself. Although, I'm too self conscious of it when I speak publicly. My thoughts are also fragmented, and I argue with myself, ask weird questions, and get completely off topic.
Anyway, if the admins urge people to make topics in the format below, I think that alone would do something. Defining constructive criticism is different from seeing it with your own eyes.
====Constructive Criticism====
- "The character slides too much. Could you add modifiable friction in Humanoid? Here's a place that needs it: (Link to place)"
- "Outlines don't work for everything. (Examples Here) Could they be optional in Lighting?"
- "Good effort, but it wouldn't make me get BC. However, these do:"
- "The site is too white. How about more shades? I like layouts like this: (Examples Here)" |

you cant fix S&I
S&I is crap and 90% of the threads are garbage or trolls
and most of the time mods dont even read our suggestions
this shouldn't even be here |

I read the first page, and all the reply on it.
I didn't read all 27 pages.
I did however, post this:

I demand at least a 1% of all income gained from this venture, if not you will be hearing from my lawyer for coming up with a good idea without me.

Forums don't make income. Your 1% would be equal to $0. Now if you were to make forums BC only...

Before you respond, ask yourself the following questions:
"What is fire?"
"What am the sky?"
"How does eat food?"
"What is satire?"
Once you have asked yourself these, and come up with the answers, then and only then shall you be deemed "possibly responsive".
