Q: Is ROBLOX in financial trouble?
We are profitable and will be hiring 40+ additional employees in 2016, 100% supported by our profits.- http://blog.roblox.com/2016/03/saying-goodbye-to-tickets/
The removal of tickets was unneeded and did not need to change. There is other ways you couldve done something to combat botting with the keeping of free currency. I think if you can give 250k dollars to somebody who makes games on your platform you are not needing an extra boost in money.
ROBLOX is for gaming, and not customization, yes. It would still be nice to have a little more choice, though. Even habbo has more. If you really wanted to make money put special gifts that are only for a certain time on your BC and robux packages.
Aswell as that, you are limiting pratically any way possible of NBC users making money. Unless you are friends with a really rich person or famous game dev you cannot use the advertise system, whatsoever. |

@borsy
' As our platform has matured, we believe the reason to come to ROBLOX should be the desire to experience incredible things with your friends. We do not want to incentivize people to “check in” every day.'
Because having no money makes you more likely to see incredible things with your friends
'We’ve introduced a host of ways for our developers to make ROBUX. The ticket bonus for place visits has become a very small factor to most developers relative to the ROBUX economy.'
the small amount of tickets awarded then was huge for small devs?
'Although familiar to many of us, they are confusing to first-time users. We believe removing tickets will simplify our product in all areas, from the UI to the catalog to user-accounting.'
i think that having no robux is confusing, as you would wonder how to get them.
'There is another benefit to removing tickets, and that is it removes the incentive to create alt accounts. We don’t believe it makes sense to provide a currency bonus to having multiple accounts, as this drives behavior that is not at the core of ROBLOX.'
yeah so? you couldve made stuff to stop that happening rather than removing them all together
'We want to continue to reward many of the other activities you do on ROBLOX. We are introducing three temporary achievements on ROBLOX. Check the blog tomorrow for details. We want to continue to celebrate your accomplishments – and you guys do so much more than just log in!'
you havent awarded us anything apart from 3 easytoget hats
'Developers can now monetize their game with developer products, gamepasses, and the affiliate program. ROBLOX developers can cash out their ROBUX for dollars which can be spent in the real world.'
they could do that already.
'Q: Without tickets, how can developers to advertise their games?
In addition to user ads, ROBLOX has introduced Sponsored ads which allow developers to more effectively advertise their games. User ads will continue to be available in the future for ROBUX and we believe this will increase the quality of user ads on the site. Both forms of ads are profitable for users who are advertising virtual items and games that sell developer products. We will continue to work on both systems to provide you additional stats so that you know just how profitable running ads on ROBLOX.'
i cannot find the option for this anywhere. anyhow, it seems to be flooded with top devs games anyway.
'Every dollar we make at ROBLOX gets poured back into the company. Unlike many other kid (and adult) virtual worlds, MMOs, and social networks, we are growing rapidly and have an enormous opportunity ahead of us.
Our vision is to Power the Imagination of our community, and to do it more immersively and more socially. Removing tickets is not about greed. It is about simplifying the platform, removing bots and alts, and paving the way for a ROBLOX that is bigger, more engaging, and more fun than ever before.'
being bankrupt isnt engaging and fun
