MORE REASONS AFTER THIS POST BELOW.
RIGHT SO FIRST OFF.
TO THE SUPPORTERS OF THIS POST WHAT WE SHOULD DO IS BOYCOTT ROBLOX.
READ########IT TO AVOID CONFUSION
DON'T BUY BC (ALTHOUGH I RECOMMEND KEEPING IT IF YOU HAVE BOUGHT LIFETIME BC WHICH WAS AVALIABLE BEFORE TO THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW)
DON'T BUY ROBUX FROM HERE, BUY IT FROM V3RMILLION/VERMILLION
DO EXPLOITS / SUPPORT THEM
REMEMBER THESE ARE OPTIONAL BUT ARE GOOD WAYS TO COMBAT.
ALSO BUYING STUFF FROM V3RMILLION/VERMILLIONS IS ALSO NOT RECCOMEND JUST IN CASE OF SCAMS
BUT ROBLOX HAS DONE WAY TOO MANY BAD THINGS.
FIRST OFF, BRING BACK TICKETS, SECONDLY, ADD BACK LIFETIME BC AND 6 MONTH BC. NEXT, REMOVE THE FRIEND LIMIT.
"BUT WHAT ABOUT BOTTING?"
WELL, FIRST OFF, YOU COULD MAKE IT SO THAT WHEN YOU MAKE A NEW ACCOUJNT YOU HAVE TO HAVE AN EMAIL LINKED TO IT.
SECONDLY, YOU COULD MAKE IT SO THE SAME ALT ACCOUNT CAN'T KEEP BUYING THE SAME ITEM FROM THE CREATOR E.G BOUGHT A T SHIRT ONCE BUY IT SECONF TIME (SAME ONE FROM SAME CREATOR) THE CREATOR WOULD NOT GET THE TIX.
THEN I'VE SEEN PEOPLE SAYING: "NO JUST LET NBCer's HAVE EASIER WAYS TO GET ROBUX"
WELL I SUPPORT THAT IDEA. HOWEVER, THAT SHOULD BE APPLIED EVEN IF THERE ARE TICKETS.
ALSO, MOST OF THE TIME WHEN YOU BRIMG BACK TICKETS PEOPLE SHUTUP THIS IS A VIRTAUL GAME.
BUT WHEN YOU SAY "THIS ISN'T FAIR" THEY SAY NEITHER IS LIFE!
THAT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL!
OK SO WHAT ABOUT LIFETIME BC? WELL THAT SHOULD BE ADDED BACK AS PLAYERS SHOULD HAVE MORE CAPABILITY OF CHOOSING HOW MUCH STUFF THEY COULD BUY WHICH ALSO MEANS I SUPPORT ADDING BACK THE OPTION TO BUY 100000 ROBUX.
BUT THEN THE NEXT FORUM UPDATE IS JUST SAD.
IT REMOVES ALMOST ALL SUBFORUMS WHICH ISN'T A GOOD IDEA.
ROBLOX, WHEN YOU MAKE UPDATES, HAVE YOU EVER ASKED THE USERS IF THEY WANTED IT?
NO, YOU HAVE NOT!!!
NOW, REMOVE DEFAULT CLOTHING!!!
IT'S REALLY SELF EXPLANATORY.
I THOUGHT ROBLOX WAS "Be anything! Create Anything!" WELL, IT'S MORE LIKE CENSOR EVERYTHING! |

I understand that it has been a year, However, that does not mean they can't come back.
There are currently 340,000,000+ ROBLOX users and that number is just getting bigger.
What's my point?
My point is that most players don't have ROBUX, but with tickets, you got 10 a day and 1 fo# ###r#####c#####it which you could convert to ROBUX, about a ratio of 13:1
ROBLOX has pretty much made a community divided by the rich, and by the poor, and most of those players are poor. A lot of people say how ROBLOX needs money and Tickets were used for botting.
What's wrong with that?
Anything could be used for botting, and ROBLOX did fine with Tickets.
In the blog "saying goodbye to tickets" ROBLOX say that "the 1 #i###e###l#####isit has become small to developers"
It has not. If you think about Nikilis, who is the creator of Murder Mystery 2, he could have accumulated over 500,000,000+ Tickets by now
With that being said, ROBLOX also mentioned in their blog, "Removing tickets isn't about greed, it's about simplifying the platform"
'Simplifying' More like making it difficult for base level players.
Also, When asked in the blog, "Is ROBLOX is financial trouble?"
The answer was "No, we are profitable and will be hiring 40+ ###elopers in 2016#####%####ported by our profits."
Also, ROBLOX wants to incentivize none buyers to buy ROBUX which is very understandable, however, many people do not like spending money on games or they are young on not allowed too.
ROBLOX even admitted how they understand that they will have less monetizing players. |

I have very mixed feelings about the removal of our free currency, tix. For those of you reading this who do not know, tix was a free currency you could trade for ROBUX, an alternate way to buy other clothing, though it does take awhile to save up. You would get a daily stipend of Tix for signing in each day, and one Tix per visit your games developed over time. They removed this early of last year, in April. The ridiculous claims, although valid, do not justify the removal tix. They were running low on profit and needed people to buy more robux and Builders Club, and looked for every reason they could find to remove tix. As quoted from their blog on March 15, 2016:
“We have many things in store for the majority of ROBLOX players who do not want to become involved with the ROBUX economy. In the catalog, we intend to provide more free items, so that avatar customization without ROBUX continues to be creative and rich. Today, we have introduced two free packages for your character. Going forward, we will feature the work of top creators in the community as we migrate to a fully community driven catalog.”
They have yet to fulfill this promise of free items, and a community driven catalog, and it’s almost been a full year since Tix were removed from roblox altogether. They have yet to let promised features, such as creators publishing hats and gears, be implemented into the roblox economy. As quoted here, the promised feature was mentioned within the same blog:
“We are reducing the price floor on shirts and pants from 10 to R$5. We are reducing the price floor to ensure that creators have more freedom to sell items at lower prices, now that tickets will be removed. We will also be holding regular contests for clothing makers going forward. They will be creating the clothing for our new users and we’ll also be featuring their clothing in the catalog for all users.”
“Over time, our catalog will be largely stocked with community created items for all categories, including body parts, animations, and gear. All items in the catalog will go through a selection process where we pick the best items for sale, along with the best items that are freely available for everyone. For those items that are freely distributed, there will be fantastic rewards to the catalog developers.”
They have yet to implement ANY of this- and clothing designers do not make that much money, considering you have to have Builders Club to be able to make clothes, AND the fact that tix were removed, people have to buy ROBUX or buy builders club with real money. Although I am ALL FOR a catalog-driven by the community, as I have wanted to make hats SINCE they announced these promised features, I will have to spend real money out of my pocket, earnings and such in order to contribute the community I love so much. This goes for anyone who wants to contribute their skills to the catalog in making clothes for everyone. They even promised a few ROBUX earnings for those NBCer’s to buy some clothing for themselves- there are free clothing, but the quality of such clothing is not at the high level- at all. They are plain, generic, and demean Roblox of its goal- creativity. As stated in the blog, it is for people who do not want to be a part of the economy. So- they are just ignoring those who want to be part of it, and who want to buy clothes, hats, etc to customize their character. They completely ignore the half of the community and are dedicated to the other, which means losses in active users.
“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.”
Yes, but only OBC can cash out robux for real dollars, which costs more money than they will actually earn in the long run. You are basically creating a community with two divided groups- rich and poor. The users with less money but big and great ideas will not be able to create and get rewarded efficiently, since Builders Club is required for you to be a successful creator- which means using your real money. You are building a community that is divided in half and not united together like it should be. You need ROBUX to add products and gamepasses. Which now, since TIX was removed, can only be earned through real money. You have destroyed the economy for your own self-need.
“ROBLOX is a place where many game developers get their start. We are committed to making sure new developers get their games discovered. To that end we have created a new email address – ######################## – for you to submit your up and coming games to. These submissions will be reviewed by our marketing team and submissions that meet our editorial standards could end up in the featured games sort. We’ve also identified the top ways our developers are making money in their games and provided this information to you in the Developer section of the site. Soon we’ll release more templates for budding designers to use when creating clothes and items.”
So basically you are limiting creations and imagination to the more fortunate community who can afford to be successful, and eliminating your so called “Building power and imagination” for everyone, and reverting it to only those who show promise in an actual career for the department you are encouraging? What happened to “It’s FREE!”. It is not at this point, and only the more fortunate players can be successful, otherwise you have to be an actual developer who talks with roblox to even create games that are played by everyone. Yes it’s good you created an email, for those developers to get noticed, they need money, robux and builders club. That is not how to build a successful community. It’s controlling it so only the dominant creators are at the top of roblox “fame”. Now, it’s become like the real world, where you need money to get anywhere.
“In general, anything we reward with currency will ultimately be botted.”
Well yes, but that shouldn’t stop you from giving the community some kind of currency reward for being dedicated to your platform. EVERYTHING will be botted eventually no matter what you do, so why not just say “Screw it” and give your players what they deserve? A creativity-filled platform with an online community, where you can customize your character as they so please, that goes across to any game they play instead of them only being able to go to games where you can fully customize your character. Again it’s an illegitimate excuse because the reasons you provided, are not as important as keeping your economy in check. It has fallen apart- such a good decision you have made, with reasonable excuses, no?
“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.”
A summary of your excuses to remove the only thing Non-builders club members have to be a part of the ROBLOX economy. If your vision to power the imagination of your community, don’t make the “imagination and creativity” aspect solely dependant on money for others to make even a little success in their game development. |

It was mostly 17 - 11 for one. On the last days, it was 10 for 1
And really, the information I gave is really undeniable.
I found this:
Okay, so I've been around Roblox for a long time, watched it evolve, seen many changes both good and bad, but after so long of seeing what happens, I've noticed one change that has basically locked off 99.9% of all cosmetic items for anyone not willing to pay real money.
Tix was one of my main motives to log in everyday, back when I didn't have a particular game or community I liked, it was also the only way I could access new clothing and items within the catalogue.
Back then you'd have things sold for 1 tix, clothing was easy to get, and things were just a lot better for customization. Considering the age group Roblox seems to be aimed at in terms of players, this was a major positive for the community.
Then the selling limit came in, minimum of 10 Robux or 100 tix to sell an item. It severely hurt my ability to customize myself, but I was fine with it, I realized maybe that the creators of said content were just not getting enough for their work.
But then came the removal of Tix. I was inactive at the time so I missed the main turn of events. Roblox promised free items and alternatives to allow continued customization for those who don't pay free money. I was willing to accept that as long as it was balanced properly.
However... after this, I have seen a massive drop in items anyone can actually get without money, almost 0 customization in comparison, which also means that groups that make uniforms with Robux cost, limit their access to those who pay. You don't even get rewarded if you make an okay place that gets a small amount of visits anymore, which was possible back when tix was a currency.
I understand it was a pro developer move, but it's basically completely demolished the ability for the free crowd to even try to save up for customization, significantly lowering the number of actual sales of items (Most parents aren't going to give their kids money for cosmetic items in a game platform), severely limiting the target audience of said items. In short, a pro developer move that was harshly anti consumer to the free crowd.
In conclusion, this has severely cut the potential audience for most of the items in Roblox, while raising the individual value of sales of these items. From a business point of view I can understand the motive for this, potentially providing more means to reward good developers of content by removing the possibility for under-priced competition; however, it is severely negative to the community as a whole as the offered alternatives are so few in number, it might as well not be there at all.
As an afterthought, I personally have not bought a single item since the removal of tix, as the removal of tix removed my sole form of currency income in Roblox. This no doubt can also attribute to the number of offers of ##### ###### I see on other sites which are almost certainly all scams. Re-introducing a currency for those who don't pay real money, or some other alternative would indirectly reduce the number of victims to these scams. |

The information on here is the most undeniable thing ever.
That's so much and could definitely persuade ROBLOX.
Except they are stubborn and don't really care about the community.
:(
R.I.P Good ROBLOX

you guys just don't get it; it's not that Tix is gone, it's that ROBUX is treated as a premium currency...

Everything is so undeniable here,
And someone who joined in 2008 (rdwt) posted this:
Why do people keep saying they do not want inflation, when Roblox themselves artificially brought in the inflation to begin with, with minimum trade prices, and then eventually the removal of tix.
If things went back to the way they were, it wouldn't be inflation, it would be heavy deflation, which would be good for every player.
You literally cannot get Robux without paying money, which runs severely counter to the intended target audience given the nature of the hyperactive censorship system which cannot be turned off and still blocks some numbers for no apparent reason.
There needs to be a way for NBC to make Robux, a reintroduction of tix, or ways for people to earn Robux without spending real money that isn't so difficult almost no one can do it anyway.
It is a pro developer move, but it's also a corporate based move and highly anti consumer, totally destroying the ability for NBC to customize themselves how they want due to the extremely small number of free items.

SO DON'T BRING BACK TIX AND GIVE THEM OPPORTUNITIES TO EARN! YOU'RE TAKING THE HARD WAY OUT WHEN THERE'S A MUCH BETTER AND SIMPLER SOLUTION!

You can't bring tix back. It's been so long since the removal; Roblox and all of the catalog has moved to Robux. So no; bringing back Tix back is stupid.
|
|
|
just install stylish and search up robux to tix theme and then install that theme and its back. |
|
|
Bringing Back tix is not stupid, read all the info, this is an info, not a debate, also changing the theme does not bring it back
