I've noticed that the as system seems to be unfair. The rich get to use more ads and make those appear more often. As such, the rich get rich, and the poorer get poorer. I believe that this being Roblox, where everyone can create what they want, that the balance should be leveled out some. Here is what I came up with in five minutes. It may not be perfect, but I like it. ---------- Everyone gets one free ad a day --You can spend tickets on these "free" ads to make them appear more often, up to a limit of 1000 tickets. The next ad from here have a base starting cost of 500 tickets, with a limit of 2000. All ads from here are increased by 25% in both base cost and extra value. Maximum of 5 ads a day, seeing as how they last the full day. ---------- I devised this system as have been both a very poor and a moderately rich person, and everything between those two. Now, I expect some whining from the incredibly, and possibly even the moderately rich on this, seeing as how this reduces their chances for visits, but keep in mind, that this just makes the bell curve shallower and allows others to at least have a sporting chance.

I haven't been rich a day in my ROBLOXian life. I like the idea of free advertising and minimalization of advertisement creation. Also, hi, Aric.

Sounds great! no one ever comes to my places, and adds are to expensive for me to use often.

I tried to keep it that the people with money can still advertise decently, but giving the others a shot. I would like more approval from othersm though.

NO! The whole point of the roblox ad system is that its realistic. In real life the guy with the most money for ads gets the most ads! Sooner you learn about money the better roblox will be and the less noobs complaining about nothing being free. ~-~-~-~-~Newe6000~-~-~-~-~ ~-~Owner of a SHOT-GUN-CHAIN-GUN-ROCKET-LAUNCHER-SNIPER-FLAMETHROWER~-~

NO! I think it is a bad Idea and too many ways to post why. But I'll only post 1; Telamon said: "NOTHING ON ROBLOX WILL BE FREE! (Besides games, accounts, posts, and everything on ROBLOX that is free right now)" "If you don't like it, go make your own game" ~Telamon DomD: № 341852

But some people dont have painting programs, and if everyone placed an ad then there would be no famous places and then ROBLOX would lose money because of the real life ads that real life people pay for would not get shown as much, and the real life companies would stop paying ROBLOX. Thus ending in lack of funds and termination of website.

1. I know about money, kid. I got seven hundred cats in the back. But the thing is, this game was catered to pre-teens, so I say we give them a chance. 2. I DID add a limit to the amount you can spend on an ad. 3. No, they wouldn't lose money from not seeing outside ads. Lookie here w%(Outside Ads) x%(Roblox Ads) y%(Person X's Ad) z%(Person Y's Ad) Person X is rich, Person Y isn't. With my system, it would balance out y% and z%, while keeping the ratio of w% and x% the same, whilst stillnaking it fairer for others. Remember guys, this is a game tailored to pre-teens, not real life.

no, ads are expensive, yes, but it is virtual, if you don't have that self control, then you can continually message people to come, stop with this, i believe that that is good so that if you really want to be good, you actually earn it, free loader

Ad system to be fair? Well the more you pay, the more you get. Like other ads which have corporation, they have to pay REAL money on ROBLOX. Like ads, you must bid ads to get more ads on ROBLOX. It's priviledges. Poors can be poor, but in the future, they will get BC. Rich can spend on what ever they want. Limited Ads: People can buy what ever they want. They just want to buy a lot of ads to advertise the people about it. So what? The tix goes to ROBLOX and creates money. Make better and epic ad to attract users. - MasterMind: The World Conquerer - "We are the Guardians of Justice" - Sir Alex Roid

so what the guy is saying is that the people who bid the least get th most ad shows. Then a noob would like go OLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOL 1ma bid 1 t1x pl0x and get a noobs c0m 2 ma1 pl4ce pl0x on the ad space over 8999 times. (I didnt say OVAR 9000 because I would get nooby replys)

Kid. I paid for all my ads. Then due to my stupidity, I was hijacked. This really doesn't matter to me, but it made me lose my public voice. You are exactly the elitist jerk that I'd expect to disagree with me. Disagreeing with me, I don;t mind so much, but you just come flat out and insult me. WHY WOULD ANYBODY SPAM SOMEONE ELSE TO COME?! It only irritates people and makes them not want to come. I know this myself, having received like 500 of these.

And another thing. I made it FAIRER, but the rich still in the end get more ads. Do you guys actually read what I say? Or do you pull the classic little kid maneuver of "TL;DR now I insult you based on what I think your title means?"

No. Noobs get to copy and run ads for free! And free ads fail. Unfair for people who PAYED FOR ADS! People can run as many ads as they want. Roblox is fine with something called "ad campaigns" when you run a whole bunch of ads with smaller bids. "Nothing on S&I is good, just things that I do and don't flame."-obft

Once again, no one understands, and tries to get all "high and mighty with me." You know what, forget it. I'll just take my ideas to RHQ where someone will actually listen, point out the GOODS and BADS of this whilst not being a critising buttmunch. ...I hate little kids.

This is a good idea. It would really make the ad system more fair. I saw this exact same post on robloxhq.

No. This is where what roblox wants to do. "Builders club makes you RICH!" It is complicated for kids that's why I disagreed.
