##Hats and Gears
Okay, ROBLOX, all you do is make more hats and more hats and more hats, then the next day. It's just more gear and more gear and more gear. This is the only game in the world where users create the game, so take use of it. We don't want this game to turn into a dress up game, none of us will EVER want that to happen. Now, start updating building updates. Also, when you make a new hat/gear, let us vote for the hat/gear. In order to vote, go into the Catalog, click "Voting", and then vote for the hats. It will show a picture of it and the title and all of that, also the price. We get to choose the price to, that way you guys don't over-price/under-price the hat/gear. It will find the average of all the money-choices picked, the average will be the selected price. Back to the voting part. So, when you see a hat/gear, there will be a "Support" and a "No-Support", just like the S&I. Which ever has the most votes, wins it. Also, no double-voting. Using this method, it will prevent more OD promoting hats/gear AND make sure hats/gear will not be under/over-priced. Also, disabled all the comments on EVERY single gear AND hat, those things are just spam holes with spam traps. Just disabled them, over Pi% of them are spam, and −459.67% non-spam (-459.67 is Absolute Zero in Fahrenheit ). Delete the comments on those already. *Remember ROBLOX, we are a building game, not a Dress-Up game.*
##Building and Scripting
The building sucks ever since you have tried to make it better. When you thought that giving every builder, even editors, pre-made 3x3x3 bricks will help the bad-building problem, it only make building worse. The building AND editing were just fine. But no, ROBLOX just HAD to fix something that wasn't already broken. When you first made it, editors couldn't even get to models or free-models or decals or even SPAWNS. We had to do everything manually, but instead we could have just click a few buttons and we had a script from our models. After a few days, you fixed it, but you still didn't have any spawns AND the 3x3x3 bricks were the default bricks. We had to go 3 extra clicks and 5 seconds of extra waiting time from Internet to get to regular bricks and our models. Put the 3x3x3 bricks IN THE BACK, not the front, no editor would EVER use pre-made 3x3x3 bricks, we're smarter than that. ROBLOX, you think we are stupid, we are smart. If we are stupid, how would we be only 8-14 and yet we have almost mastered a whole computer programming language. We have mastered it yet better than you (For some people), and yet you still think we're still stupid and stupid enough that we would favor your 3x3x3 bricks. No, we would never do that. Also, for the builders out there, have the old toolbox and the new toolbox side-by-side, and let them get to models again, I hate the S&I being filled with "BRING BACK OLD TOOLBOX!", so ROBLOX, just put them side-by-side that way we can choose which one we like better. For scripting, you have useless, locked functions/events/methods that are locked and will never be used again; if they are locked and wont be used again, DELETE THEM. If you don't delete them, it is just extra, wasted file space that can be used for updates. The first-person scripts aren't working anymore since the Terrain Generator, just delete it. Heck, it isn't even a Terrain Generator, it's a Lag Generator. Deleting the Terrain Generator, you can get TONS of extra update space. Also, give us the choice of if we want certain updates or not, when a new update comes in building, ask us to test it and give a summary about it, if we select we want it, do the whole "Upgrade ROBLOX" thing, if we don't want the building update and we click "I don't want it", don't update ROBLOX, let them have it, I will explain this further in the Updates section. *Remember ROBLOX, if it's not broken, don't fix it.*
##Updates and Promises
Like I said above, we should be able to choose if we want that certain update for ourselves. So, it will tell us "A new game update has come! (Title) (Desc.) (Why YOU should have it)." Then, if we want to test it, we test it. When we leave, it will have "You like it or not?" Then a "Yes" and a "No". But, if you don't choose to test it, it will still have that there, below the desc. Okay, all the recent updates are terrible, they suck. I haven't seen an NBC update since 2010 - I was here in 2007, I just got my name changed in 2011, so it says I joined in 2011. Really, have some more NBC updates, like 20 TIX a day, a few R$ a day, active places etc. Make an Update-Log, have all the updates ever made, then have upcoming updates. Let us vote for updates, if it is a game update, make a beta-version and let us test it. Also, make a summary of it and explain WHY it would be useful to us. When we vote, it would say "Support" and "No-Support" like the S&I. When the date the update is supposed to come on, which ever side has the most will win. On to Promises. When you promise something, you have to keep up to it, even 30 years later, that's what a promise is. You promised Dynamic Lighting, I don't see it. You promised a Trading System, all I see is useless threads on that topic. You promised NBC bodies, they must be shy, I don't see any. You promised more Lua updates, all I see are pages in the Wiki that will never be worked on. You promised a good Terrain Generator, all I see is a Lag Generator. I actually have probably the most accurate reason why you guys don't keep your promises: It's because you guys are actually keeping up to your promises, it's just that you get off track and start working on things like "Rainbow Shaggy". Then, the update is forgotten and lost like an old file in a computer. Guys, you got to remember, less clothing, more building. Also, change the "Be anything, Build Anything" on the front page. Change it to "Build anything, Be anything", because it makes our game more of a building game to new players, if it stays the same, new people will think that clothes are more important than the game's actual purpose, building. *Remember ROBLOX, more building, less clothing.*
##Banning
You guys are not banning the length that should be given. I knew a guy, who exploited a game in front of my eyes, and I had video proof of it, and he was banned for 1 day... I mean really, exploiting deserves a month. You said OD'ing is against the rules, BAN THEM FOR IT. You said exploiting is against the rules, BAN THEM FOR IT. If you say scamming is against the rules, BAN THEM FOR IT. If you say spamming is against the rules, BAN THEM FOR IT. You guys got to start cracking down on rule-breakers. Moderate the Forums more, the S&I has just had a recent Spam War involving diddyman42, and it took you guys a DAY to ban him, after I almost reported him 100 times. You should moderate the S&I the most because some people just don't know the meaning of "Suggestions and Ideas". Upgrade the reporting system, I have been falsely reported for INSERTING A VIRUS INTO THE ROBLOX SERVER!!! I mean really, actually check if they did anything. *Remember ROBLOX, ban for the right reason and the right time.*
##NBC and BC
Now, the worst problem has struck ROBLOX like a freight train whipped up by The Hulk and thrown at ROBLOX. But yet, we can dodge it with us answering the question that has dawned us for a long time, but yet, so simple. Who, the NBC's, or the BC's? I can go on and on on this topic, but yet, I have found a way to compress it; The answer. I believe, the NBC is the answer, they make up 80% of us robloxians. But, why should they favor BC? Well, it's because we give them money. They are money-greedy. The reason why they don't care about NBC is, well, put it this way...
-Clerk-
Hello
-Customer-
Hi, I would like to buy these M&N's.
-Clerk-
Okay, that will be $0.70 cents, sir.
-Customer-
Oh, sorry, my mom doesn't have enough money, she just has 60 cents.
-Clerk-
Well then, GET OUT!!!! YOU DON'T HAVE THE MONEY, YOU NEVER COME BACK HERE, EVER!!!!!!!!!
-Customer-
[Cries, leaves]
That's basically the problem with the NBC'ers. So, why should they be mad at them? I have really no idea, but it may be just because they're selfish, and mean. What you guys are doing with us, separating us, is illegal. You are separating us by wealthiness. It's called discrimination. Discrimination means to separate us by color, race, origin, wealthiness, gender etc., It's illegal, so why do you do it to us? If this keeps up, in mid-2012, there will probably be a civil-war in ROBLOX, the BC-Lovers and the NBC-Lovers, I would be neutral, but if I had to choose, I would be NBC. *Remember ROBLOX, stop being greedy about who pays you, and who doesn't.*
##Prices
Your prices our INSANE. It's a M.M.O.R.P.G, not a hotel in Hawaii. M.M.O.R.P.G stands for Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game, even though this isn't an RPG, ROBLOX has made it one. I looked it up in Wiki, it said it itself. Lower the prices, a lot. If you lower the prices, you get more BC'ers, making you more money than currently. Well, this ends this extremely short section. *Remember ROBLOX, make good prices, not over-the-roof prices.*
##The Wiki
Look, The Wiki is terribly outdated. There are pages in The Wiki that have been locked. There are pages that wont be/haven't been worked on, and probably never will. I have seen some threads saying that wiki-writers can't log-in so they can edit pages/make pages. Fix that already, The Wiki is a scripter's best friend. *Remember ROBLOX, fix The Wiki already!*
##Moderation
Now, the deal with moderation has crossed the line! You guys are letting exploiters, Od'ers, spammers, scammers get away with everything! While, us innocent people, are the ones who get in trouble. You guys need to moderate more. I looked on the front-page, it said that the average amount of Forum Moderators active at a time is 1. It also said the most moderated Sub-Forum is freaking OFF-TOPIC!!!! They need to hire more moderators to moderate every single Sub-Forum, but not all at the same time of-course. They need to have an active spam catcher. You've all seen that "Spam Bot" thread right? Well, they need to make that, it would greatly stop spam. In order to stop Profanity, they need to make a data-base that is updated every month by a system that asks every user a question, to list all the ways you can get through a swear-filter. EX: |) /-\ |\/| |\|
That's how a lot of people get past a filter.
Now, when they answer, it checks it against all the other answers. If one appears 3 times and is NOT in the database already, it adds it. So when someone chats something in the database, it will catch them, it is a clever way to stop profanity. They should do the same thing with OD'ing. Make under-cover moderators. Get a game-moderator to pose as a desperate person wanting to get BC, try to find a scammer. Then, they give them the pw and stuff, then, they get them for scamming, especially scamming a moderator. *Remember ROBLOX, hire moderators!*
##Sounds
Your sounds are SO limited. Let us have an interactive music generator. We can make music with some virtual drums, guitars, bass, keyboards etc... it will greatly improve our game's uniqueness. I saw a thread about it a few minutes ago, so don't say it's over-suggested, the whole thread is about ALL suggestions and PROBLEMS that should have something done about. *Remember ROBLOX, let us be creative, stop putting a rope around our necks.*
##R.G.D.
R.G.D. stands for ROBLOX Graphic Designer. It is like one of those advanced graphic designers, like Paint.Net, .Gimp, Photoshop etc.. It would be made especially for ROBLOX, it would have all our templates for clothes, ads etc., special effects, tutorials, Upload-Instantly-To-ROBLOX etc.. *Remember ROBLOX, this could help greatly.*
##The purpose of ROBLOX
Okay, when you first made this game, what were your original purpose? To make a website of fashion? NO! It was: To make the only building game in the world without any boundaries. But, in 2008, that all changed. You guys started going downhill, you lost over 60% of your population, including me. When you made a bunch of BC only stuff, it all started going downhill. You drove your robloxians away with you denying your own motto: "Free to play." Then, you guys fell into hats and gear. Then, you slowly turned into a fashion game throughout the years. Now, why don't we start over? Why don't we start over on a clean slate of stone. Start over with the un-animated bodies and the small amount of clothes... That way, we can prosper like we did back then, when almost everyone insisted on building/scripting. When they were little-to-none spammers/trollers/scammers/exploiters. Just, start over with the original purpose: To make the only building game in the world without any boundaries. *Remember ROBLOX, if you want to prosper again; start over.*
##Contests
Contests are a waste of everyone's time. The only winners are the people who free-model everything. Almost every contestant uses the same exact map as everyone else, because it's a free-model. But, the real contestants, that take time and are proud of there work and don't use free-models, get in last place. I say, we should just get rid of it. It is basically rigged. Look in the first contest, no free-models (Maybe a few...). But, it turned into the contests of today; Free-Modeled maps. Just remove contests. *Remember ROBLOX, contests do no good and they give no good.*
##Themes
I like how they made those seasonal themes, but, I like my 1.0 theme better than all of these new themes. It makes me feel like the good 'ol days. It also made a lot of people feel the same way. Give us the option to have seasonal themes or not.
*Remember ROBLOX, stop holding us in in a cage of no-creativity.*
Extras: Let us organize our stuff with folders. Make costumes, so it would be easier to make matching pants. Fix the Wiki.
