2380000 that's just a rough estimate of how much Roblox would make if only 10% of Roblox was Bought a 5.95 month pass of Classic BC.
Roblox had 3 reasons for implementing the price floor.
1.Raise the quality of items in the catalog.
2.Reward makers and sellers of clothing.
3.To incentivize non-paying users to buy ROBUX
I'm going to talk about all of these including your question about the needs of NBC
1. The quality of items in the catalog is still the same as it was in 2013 the only difference between now and then is that people who are making and selling clothing are making less then they made in 2013. When the price floor wasn't around clothing was very cheap and clothing sales were high. NBC's weren't saving for clothing they were saving for other things such as faces,hats, stuff for games etc. Now that we have the price floor this has forced NBCers to be careful with their money thus bring me onto part 2. Maker aren't making the kind of money they use to. When NBCers weren't worried about tix they spent the gathered up tix they had on a daily basis now it takes 10 days to buy a pair of pants and 20 days if you want a shirt. One of the most widely know clothing Roblox brands is kestrel. They are know for their high quality clothing but yet it's sold at the lowest possible price. Why? because they can't sell clothing at 500 tix anymore they've got to sell their high quality clothing at rock bottom like everybody else or nobody will buy. On to my final point "To incentivize non-paying users to buy ROBUX" The price floor yes of course has incentivized people to buy roblox, but the drawbacks of the price floor have outweighed the benfits. I'm sure you can think back to when you first played roblox what it was like. Buying a cool shirt,pants and hat and jumping into a game but now new users will be unable to experience much of the character customization due to the prices of everything being out of their reach. It's hurt Entreprenuers due to the fact that they are making less sales then they were before the price floor.
Look maybe it wouldn't kill you to look at the topic at a forum post once in a while. Read it with me it says "Price floor needs to be lowered" not "GET RID OF PRICE FLOOR". I understand the Roblox is a company. I'm not aruging for the Price floor to be removed. I'm aruging that the price floor should be lowered.
