ROBLOX is not going to make it happen... It's nice, but I remember a noob (Blade24) Who wants extra tix an dmore benifits linking to BC... I said no in a polite way and he rejected me JUST because I WAS NOT A VETERAN! This is unfair, so he made me start a flame war..... |

I don't see whats so bad about it. If your not a vet yet you don't have to be jealous, just wait until you are and you'll get the same benefits. |

Vets give a lot more to the ROBLOX community than BCers do...
Any rich noob can buy BC. |

Ugh, I just tried posting my comeback, but the filters messing with me. |

The only thing that BCesr contribute more than Non-BCers is money, but that only applies to TBC and OBC. From viewing offsite ads I'm willing to gamble that a Non-BC member generates more income per month for Roblox than a BC member does (because BC don't view offsite ads). |

@Poke
But do most NBC even click them? No, most ignore them. |
|

@TixTax
Those companies don't care. They still pay to have those ads shown. So, yes, NBC do contribute to tons of profits for ROBLOX. |

But the NBC just sit there. It's ROBLOX making the company think they'll get profits. |

They get a lot more from Builders Club than they do from ads. |

Back on topic:
I love this idea. I think anyone who has been playing ROBLOX for a year deserves those small benefits, I'd be fine with just 2 places. I would also love to make a group. I just don't understand why admins never read these forums. |
|

They get plenty from ads. From just viewing an ad, lets say Roblox makes $0.01. Lets say the average mostly active Non-BC member views 50 ads a day from browsing the forums and navigating the site, and lets say they're active 20 days of the month. That's $0.50 a day times 20, which is $10. That's nearly twice as much as regular BC pays in a month. Now, there are how many members now? 8 Million or so? Lets say 750,000 are mostly active Non-BC members. They get $750,000 a month, and lets say they they spend about $400,000 on payroll for employees and for keeping the servers up. That's $350,000 just from the mostly active members, then there are probably about another 30,000-50,000 who spend a lot of time around the site and see about 100 offsite ads a day (I browse the site a lot, I probably see around 200 a day and I'm on almost every day of the month), there's another load of money just from free members. Then there's probably 2 million Non-BC who aren't as active and see about 10 offsite ads and are on only 15 days a month. There are probably only around a million regular BC members who pay $5.95 a month. Non-BC makes more money for Roblox than the BC members do. TBC and OBC, on the other hand, make Roblox more money a month than we do. |

Thats a really good estimate, except I would predict all outside ads (not ads from google) are about $0.50 |

They may get a lot form ads, but they get waaay more from builders club. |
|

Actually, your math was wrong. If there are 750,000 non-active BCers, and they each make 10$ a month, then that's 7.5 MILLION dollars. For everything? Probably about 1 million a month. 6.5 MILLION dollars for just one month. If all Non-BCers quit ROBLOX, the cost of BC would go up tremendously. |

no bc things for nonbc we paid if we got stuff for free therel be no roblox anymore |

One thing I don't get is why so many people come into this thread and assume it's BC benefits for Non-BC. It doesn't ask for the ability to sell shirts, donate or things like that, it asks for a few extra Robux a day and an extra place or two, that's basically it. BC also would get added Veteran Benefits, so I don't see why they'd whine so much. Regular BC benefits still surpass this by a lot, we're only asking for about 1/2 of the Robux you get and 1/5-1/3 of the places you get, it's not like we'd get all the same benefits as you guys do. It's barely as much as you'd get. In fact, if the idea of VB got accepted, Non-BC would whine less about being undertreated and you wouldn't have to whine as much at us with your extremely lame, unoriginal and unconvincing excuse "WE PAID YOU DIDN'T!". |

I don't really have much more to add to what has already been said.
Thanks, Poke. |

I still think this is a bad idea. People should play for a year because they want to. Not to get some "Special Benefit." That's what all games should be about. We may help roblox make their money, but that doesn't mean we deserve all these extras. I think it would be good to learn to work for benefits, not just expect them because you did anything at all. Why should a person who logged on 365 times, but never did anything get more than a user who hasn't, but done more? It's a workaround, an easy way out. Say there are two people. Person One and Person Two. Person One goes and works to make a few dollars, and buys bc with their hard-earned money. Person Two just logs on roblox and plays some front-page games. Person One is disappointed because all his work amounts to just a bit more than Person Two, even though he did more. |
|
|
No, Person2 then has 12 or 13 places, and is getting 7-8 robux a day. He still gets his FULL BC benefits, plus the veteran ones. |
