(Please do not hate on this forum post. It took a lot of thinking to decide whether I wanted to keep replies open or not and if you're going to hate I might as well turn replies off and you'll ruin it for everyone else. Thanks.)

I'm going to say this politely:
I'm sorry. TIX are not coming back. As an NBCer like you, I understand the struggle. I used to have OBC, but that has expired. As TIX aren't coming back, a lot of you may be asking, "Well. How are NBCers like us supposed to get ROBUX?" And to that question, I'm sorry to say... "I don't know." As we all know, ROBLOX used its own economy and the fact that TIX were too confusing as an excuse.
ROBLOX had enough money to buy three or four cruise ships on the day that TIX were removed.
Do you understand how much money that is? Three or four cruise ships would cost:
$5.2 BILLION DOLLARS
or
4.03 BILLION POUNDS.
or
93.1 TRILLION PESOS
(PM me for more currency conversions, I'll try my best.)
And TIX were "too confusing" to new players? You literally just had to click Trade > Trade Currency then enter the TIX you had in the box and you were done. You had ROBUX.
WOAH! So confusing! I could never do that! (sarcasm)
Now, this hasn't turned into a "RoBLOXCKS Br!NG B## T!X" post, as I am still sorry to say that they aren't coming back. Let me just give you the real reason why ROBLOX isn't bringing back TIX, and I'll challenge myself. Three words to explain why.
GREEDINESS.
CAPITALISM.
Greed. Everyone knows what greed is. It's in basically every single fairytale you've ever read and you've always been taught not to be greedy. Which you shouldn't. ROBLOX decided to be greedy and make it so you had to PAY to get ROBUX######k### how they're saying "Don't fall for scams"?
Hm.. I wonder why those scams exist.
And if you're thinking "ROBLOX only has that amount of money to keep themselves running, that's not that much in "web site rent"." Welp. Think of it as an APARTMENT. In all apartments, you have to pay RENT. If you don't pay RENT, you get evicted, which means to be kicked out.
This is essentially what happens with websites. Now, don't ask me who is the big overlord of all the websites like GOOGLE and ROBLOX. I don't know. At least where I live, apartments would cost:
350 pounds a month.
or
451 dollars a month.
or
8068 pesos a month.
I'm not saying that apartments are really cheap, they're not. And that 8,068 pesos a month still converts to 451 dollars or 350 pounds. So it's not a lot of money.
Back on track though, apartment rent kind of relates to WEBSITE RENT. You have to pay per month to run a website. This costs 1,000 pounds a month (1,287 dollars or 23,058 pesos.) Web sites are not cheap.
Now! You're probably thinking, "That's not a lot of money compared to what ROBLOX has total." Well. You're right.
Even without the removal of TIX, ROBLOX would have had enough money to pay for their website for over 4 MILLION more months in American dollars, over 11 MILLION more months in British pounds, and, get ready.. over 11 TRILLION more months in Mexican pesos.
GREED.
Now, capitalism.
Capitalism basically runs off of ripping people off, or what we just explained. ROBLOX could have had 4 MILLION more months just off of what they had before TIX removal, but NO! They had to make US spend more money so they could make that more like 16 MILLION more months, then 17 MILLION, then raise their pay from $10 an hour to $30 an hour, and so on. Do you understand? $30 is godly for pay by the way.
(7.75 pounds or 179 pesos for $10 an hour | 23 pounds or 537 pesos for $30 an hour.)
ROBLOX essentially RIPPED US ALL OFF by FORCING US TO PAY IF WE WANTED ROBUX. We could have kept TIX and ROBLOX would still be going on for the next century by the time we decided to quit. A century is still 100 years if you're wondering.
(Again, don't hate on this forum please or I will be forced to turn off replies to it.)
No, this forum is not 'dissing' or 'exposing' ROBLOX, it's just explaining what they've done to RIP US OFF. Many people may still be angry that TIX aren't coming back, and don't worry, I am too. In fact, when I still had OBC, I asked ROBLOX how NBCers could get ROBUX since TIX were gone.
And, unsurprisingly, they refused to give me a straight answer. Typical ROBLOX support team.
Also, I don't care if I get banned for making this forum 'exposing' ROBLOX. If I get banned I can literally use an appeal and the appeal team will probably laugh in the main ROBLOX HQ's face and unban me in front of them. You're welcome, ROBLOX.
If you read through my entire, probably unnecessary rant, THANK YOU. You deserve a cookie.
With all (un)do respect to ROBLOX,
