Some ideas were used from this thread by SnowyThePyroBear,
https://forum.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=220837987
"TIX 2.0" is not intended to be the official name.
----
Tickets, although being gone for a little over a year at this point, were one of the most important parts of the economy. It allowed NBC members to customise their characters and access parts of games that had to be bought.
Whilst they caused damage to the ROBLOX economy, were highly exploitable by anyone skilled enough, and caused ROBLOX to lose money, this thread will hopefully turn TIX into a completely unexploitable currency.
---- 1. CERTIFIED ITEMS
TIX 2.0 will allow users to purchase items created by ROBLOX in the catalog (that they sell for TIX, of course), as well as shirts and pants that ROBLOX has certified.
Items that have been certified by ROBLOX would have been created by the community, and would appear with a red tick in the top right of the item thumbnail.
Creators of certified items will have a 5% lower marketplace fee (25%).
Creators can apply for their items to become certified, but have to reach certain - and maybe extreme - milestones, such as:
- Sell 10,000 items
- Earn R$200,000 in the lifetime of their account
- Have been an OBC member within the last 6 months
- Have 100,000 place visits in total
---- 2. REMOVED FEATURES
TIX 2.0 cannot be traded for ROBUX, in no circumstances.
TIX 2.0 cannot be used to purchase gamepasses.
TIX 2.0 cannot be used to purchase access to paid games.
---- 3. HOW TO EARN TIX 2.0
Every user, regardless of membership status, will earn 10 TIX everyday for playing at least 30 minutes a day (total time spent playing on all games they play, not a single game)
The only other way to earn TIX would be by selling certified items.
---- 4. TIX 2.0 & CERTIFIED ITEMS LIMITATIONS
Unlike the original TIX system, TIX 2.0 has limitations which stop abuse and exploitation.
- The creator of a certified item will only receive payment after a 1 week waiting period. If the item is removed by ROBLOX, people who have purchased the removed item within the last week will receive refunds.
- Uploading any content that goes against the ROBLOX ToS will have the user permanently banned from attempting to upload certified items.

"How to earn tickets."
I believe that can be abused if you switch the time on the computer. |

It is based on the time server-side, not client-side. |

no support,
1) no tix means more people buy robux and roblox earns the money made. this leads to them hiring more staff and developers, leading to better games, better and more frequent updates and better email response time. roblox already hired these employees, and would have to fire them if they were to do this
2) the "log on roblox everyday and play for 30 minutes" idea is bad, as roblox said in their blog post: "As our platform has grown, 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."

To counter this, ROBLOX could start creating more catalog items, and accept community created hats, faces, and gears.
Plus, TIX would only be an applicable currency to a very small percentage of items in the catalog, perhaps only 4 or 5 items being added per year. The concept of TIX 2.0 is to try and make ROBUX and BC look more attractive to NBC members, whilst still providing NBC members with access to some parts of ROBLOX that would be "paid only" by;
- Giving them a taste of the catalog
- Showing them the features of a BC member;
Each time they purchase something, (can be turned off) the list of features available for each form of membership would appear on screen.

Irrelevant, as TIX 2.0 wouldn't allow people to "profit" as they would with original TIX.

making more hats won't make roblox enough money to replace tix
"Irrelevant, as TIX 2.0 wouldn't allow people to 'profit' as they would with original TIX."
yes it is relevant, because you are suggesting that people need to only log on everyday and play for 30 minutes to earn tix, which roblox does not want to do because they believe the reason to come to roblox should be the desire to experience incredible things with friends, not "play game 30 minutes everyday"

I don't see why someone would waste their time doing such a thing.
Like I said, TIX 2.0 wouldn't allow people to profit like they did with the original TIX, plus the catalog for TIX 2.0 would be very limited.
"Checking in" just for 10 TIX a day would be a waste of time.
The main intention of TIX 2.0 is to allow for more open character customisation - that and that only. It's just money that works on specific items.

if people can customize their avatar, that means people don't have to buy robux anymore to look different and roblox starts losing a ton of money and won't be able to afford their current state

It would be highly limited customisation.
Like I said earlier, perhaps only 4 or 5 items per year would be added to the range of TIX items.

it's still more customization, and every non-sponsored additional free hat/gear/shirt will make roblox lose money

OR HOW ABOUT:
Bring back tix but they are useless in every single aspect |
|
|
|
They are NEVER adding another currency. STOP ASKING FOR IT.

It will make ROBLOX lose virtually no money.
