As we all know, ROBLOX has a big issue with lag, and it is due to their RAM. Many people suggest for ROBLOX to fix the lag every now and then, but it is not as simple as just going into the system and updating the way it runs.
ROBLOX needs extra RAM for their servers in order for them to run more smoothly. How does ROBLOX get more RAM? It's very simple, actually. They pay.
As users pay for more features, ROBLOX pays for more RAM. It's a similar concept, and it all chains up to one point eventually.
Now, the point I'm trying to make, is that all ROBLOXians need to start suggesting things to help ROBLOX raise up more money, not matter how greedy you think they are. When they get more money, they will be able to make ROBLOX better for us. Builders Club members and free users.
Before I begin with my actual idea, I'll point out something else.
Some of you may be thinking that ROBLOX never checks the S&I anyways. If that is your belief, I have no idea what you're doing here in the first place, but there's a simple solution to that.
Uservoice.
Whether you wish to post your ideas to help ROBLOX's funding problem here, or in a different thread, I will take my time out to put your idea on uservoice, where we will know whether or not the idea will be used.
Now, it's the S&I, so I need some sort of suggestion or idea, and I guess I'll begin.
A lot of people have issues with the ROBUX system where they do not wish to use any of the preset choices. Well, we need a trade rate. Something like how much ROBUX someone would get per dollar. So that no matter how much money they pay, they get a certain amount of ROBUX. That way, if someone wishes to only pay two dollars, they may do that, and get their fair amount of ROBUX for that price.
It may not do much for the beginning, but there are people who would buy ROBUX after this who wouldn't before. As time goes on, the extra money ROBLOX gets would build up. Because instead of someone paying $5.95 for 450 R$ (I hope that's right), they could pay about $8.00, since they didn't wanna go to the next preset price up. That way, they get more than 450 R$, but less than what the next preset is, so they are paying the perfect amount for them-self. |

I agree.
Although, it's be nice for Roblox to focus on this.

I don't think you get it at all.
Roblox servers have 4Gbs of RAM and are 32-bit. No matter how much RAM you give them they can only use 4GBs. If you've been paying attention to the news at all, you would know that they are already working on this and more. |

No, you don't understand.
This is not for them to simply add more RAM. It is known that with money they'll be able to pay, and get the servers going faster. What I suggested was simply that others start suggesting things to help ROBLOX get more money, and an idea to help ROBLOX get more money. |

"ROBLOX needs extra RAM for their servers in order for them to run more smoothly. How does ROBLOX get more RAM? It's very simple, actually. They pay."
While you are right there, there's a whole lot more going on behind the scenes than just adding RAM. The first thing that would have to happen is then using 64-bit servers instead. |

Which would cost them more money, no? |

It would cost money, time, and manpower actually. |

I love it when people bring up arguments like this.

Well then I partially get the idea of how it works. But, either way, if ROBLOX gets more money, then it helps go towards these better servers, does it not? |

Your argument is valid but pointless.
Time is money, as well as manpower.

Perhaps it's pointless, but I really have nothing better to do. |

Legend's argument argument wasn't pointless, since there were things I didn't know about. But, the money does help, and it is necessary for ROBLOX to become more fun to play. |

Chaos, I was referring to how it all looped back to money?

Why would roblox want to spend their money on the community??? |

I guess you are right then. I wasn't thinking multiple steps for a second, but only one step away. |

I find this thread isn't about who's right, it's trying to express how your right in words.

I think we're all trying to say the same thing, but in different ways, so we're misunderstanding everything... |

xD I'm sorry, I find the irony of this to be amusing.
That's what I said, but in another way.
Oh, the wonders of the English Language.

With a mildly different outlook, of course.
