ROBLOX fails today, but it used to be one of the best online games back then. I know people will say "y u still playin then?" or "past is past, get over it", but I have ideas of improving the site and the game. You'd have to shut down the site for a few weeks to make the changes, but leave something up for them to know you're still updating.
1. Change the forums. Instead of what we have now, we could use a neater PHP format forum, such as what RobloxHQ's forums used. (Forum is gone now) The forums here are a mess, as the search function is glitchy, and we could use better forum profiles than what we have here.
2. Change the BC options and fees. I'm thinking, for BC options, cut down a few extra things, and a few fees. Make the live video available to anyone, and let OBC get 50 robux. For games, when BC come in, they can have a special feature called "BC Chat", where they chat with any BC members using a special chat menu.
3. Change the game servers. Instead of having someone making a game, and just having twenty players, I'm thinking, how about we expand that thought? How about having more server options. I'm thinking, give an extra fee if they want their game to have up to 500 people in a server. I know limitations can apply if they have too many blocks, but if they had more moderators going in-game just with the player to solve their lag, they could probably help them out. Servers with 500 players HAS been done before by many other games, such as San Andreas Multi-player.
4. Set game modes so a player can see the old buttons instead of the newer stuff. I know a lot of players that love making machinimas, but the new buttons are in their way and it's hard to crop those out now.
I have plenty more thoughts on what could make ROBLOX better, post your comments or CONSTRUCTIVE criticism here. If you say TL;DR, you're a sad posting troll with nothing else to say, so I'd rather hear you as a mute.

1. I find that the forum format is fine, HOWEVER the forum profiles and search engine need an upgrade. Support.
2. I find that this idea does not go with the title. The OBC Cast is for OBC members (Who pay the most money) To know more about roblox. OBC People shouldn't have the amount of money gained per day decreased by ten, it doesn't make sense why roblox would do that. BC Chat, all those people that almost left because of BC Games? They leave because of BC Chat. BC Chat wouldn't make Roblox a better place for everybody either. And it wont cause more people to buy BC, because they can't talk with BCers and see how awesome it could be. No Support.
3. The server capacity has been expanded already. Awhile ago they had 50 people on a gametest server, and one of my friends has a game that can have 30 people max in it. The problem we have though, is that it causes more server lag. (Which is lag that exists for everybody) Combined with game lag (Which is lag that exists through your connection, brick count, script count, ect.) This could cause a TON of people to Disconnect all the time if we had 500 people in a server. It has been done, but it wouldn't make roblox better itself.
No support.
4. Support.
Was this constructive enough criticism for you? |

1. Maybe support..
2. No support
3. No support. I blame "Connectors"
4. Support. |

One sane member left in the community then. That was perfectly good criticism, as it can help me come up with better ideas. Thanks for posting! :) |

Let me edit 2. and 3.
2. For BC's, expand the options a little more, but have tougher moderation on. I'm tired of cocky kids that buy it just to show-off and act rude to other players because of some kids that can't pay for it. Not every kid is allowed to buy stuff on ROBLOX, and sometimes its their parents thing. No more briberies to stay unbanned as best as possible, I've had enough of that. One of my best friends had a BC account and was banned for just a week, yet he messed up the forums with his alt accounts to be funny. I'm surprised his main wasn't destroyed for it, but you get my point.
3. Private game servers just for certain people you can invite, instead of scripting the feature. Here is what I believe. This one can be made for NBC too. For a certain currency, you can pay a good amount and get your own private server and times for it. Send a digital invite to your friends to the server, and they'll respond to it if they want to join.
Post your thoughts. |

New 2: Support for the Tougher Moderation, I have seen BCers and NBCers break the rules on the forums quite a few time. The BCers always get a MUCH smaller punishment then the NBCers. However, you opened up this idea like you were going to say something about expanding BC. You only talked about moderation here.
New3: Support on this as well, it has been asked many times, and can improve roblox quite a bit. The only downside that I can see with it is that it will be used by ODers, and they will not be reported just about ever. Though the same thing can happen, with friend only servers. But what can I say? The internet is the internet, we can't fix it. |

What I'm thinking though, is that a moderator can watch the server for suspicious activity, so chat logs will be left up for a moderator to watch. For my BC ideas, I didn't come up with any expansions, I forgot I left the idea of an abandoned idea in there. Whoops. |
|
|
5. For BC-abusers, ban them from BC features for a certain amount of time, or if its really bad, refund them half price and ban from BC for good. |
|
|
1) Support. If they can update the tab then they could update thte search engine.
2) No support. Why would ROBLOX decrease the daily ROBUX for OBC? It makes no logic sense. And the BC Chat will cause more riots.
3) No support, One word: Lag.
4) Support.
5) No. How would they abuse BC? It makes no sense at all.. If they ban them from a BC Features for a certain time it would be annoying causing more BCers to quit and causing ROBLOX to go bankrupt.

Read my new 2. and 3. Cross the original ones out.
For 5., it can be abused when some buyers act snotty and hostile and attempt to use it just to be a lot less from being deleted. |
|

1. I can't search my old post, "Insignias" without capitalizing it. Support for change. :D
2. 50 ROBUX is nowhere near outragous. And BC chat will... increase free players thinking BCers are talking behind their backs. No support this time.
New 2. Needed. I know "some" BCers who think being spoiled is superior. Though not all BCers are spoiled. I had BC before. Support.
3. ROBLOX "WILL" get that technology later, but currently I lag with 6 people in a server. :P You know my answer. Ditto from #2.
New 3. I heard that it takes money to keep servers open. Every server costs something and if it's true, well, more private servers is going to raise the price.
4. Support. I gotten REALLY use to the old HUD, etc.
5. ...what? They payed for it. They can't just be demoted to a Free Player! That would be somewhat unfair. What kind of ROBLOX crime to go to that level of punishment? No BC forever is just... just... OUTRAGOUS!

Virtual, on 5, I mean if they treat it badly to use against other players and break a lot of rules, they can get 50-75% of their money back but cannot use it for BC anymore. However, they wouldn't mind using it for robux. That's my theory. |
|
|
@RobloxPullen
If it's that bad, why not a Perm-Ban?
-Virtualdarks |

6. Fix the chat bar. Please. It's too big when you open it and it takes even more space when you're using chat. My idea is, shrink the friend bar, then make it similar to Facebook™ where you pull a list of friends on the right side, click on one, minimize the bar and have your friend chat pulled up on the right side. |
|
|
@RobloPullen
You use the chat bar?
Anyways.
6. Erm... eh... well... does it hinder you from doing anything? Is it REALLY necessary?
-Virtualdarks |
|
|
Virtual, I suppose that's not a bad idea either. I feel illogical at times. :) |
|
|
I sometimes use it to talk to friends, but they never respond. Probably because it doesn't give them a sign. |
|

7. New forum functions. The ability to edit and delete your posts. Seriously. My top post needs some good editing, but there is nothing I can do about it.
8. A great way to prevent scamming items. Order ID's. These ID's belong to you and you get them in your inbox or e-m-ail. every item you get, so in case something happens to your item like a scam or hack, you ask [email protected] or a moderation part of the site to get your order back with the order ID you got when you bought your hat/gear. |
|
|
7. That's been suggested but never a good idea.
For example:
A person could spam on the forums then delete it.
Or a person could write something inappropriate and edit it.
8. What?

@Punk, no, the moderators have logs and can check what the history was on the thread before, no matter what, so the person can still be punished for something like that. |
|
|
It's not about that, it's about the people who will troll at him. Besides, if no one reported him no admins would check.
~Punkster1234567, Creative lazor~ |

Explain a little more of the trolls and the thought, I didn't exactly get it. Admins always check threads, that's why whenever you post a new thread, immediately check "MyForums", your thread has just two views.
Also, the order ID's are a safe way of buying virtual products. It maybe hard to understand, but I'll try and show what I mean. Like at the store, you buy a product, you get a serial number. I'm not talking about the limited item numbers. |
