You see, Linux has a completely different operating system than Windows or Mac. Because of that, it takes more time, so it takes more money, so it takes more people buying things. It's kinda complicated.

Green that is completely wrong, most linux users have used windows in the past; your statement is completely irrelevant.

"Because if you use linux your cheap and wont buy bc thus your not contributing to roblox." You're an idiot. No personal attack there, when the evidence supports it. It's because the code Roblox has isn't cross-platform, which means they can only use it on Mac or Windows.

@Valor ask your parents to get avg free version, it's very easy to use. It detects viruses. Then you move them to the "Virus Vault" and then you delete it. As simple as that.

They should make something like wine for ubuntu, except for linux so you can use windows programs.

How about you use the "wine" emulator. It is an open source programme (i'm English) that should allow you to run almost every windows programme. I'm not sure how to use it yet, i'm sure its straight forward. Hope this helps. --epicbreaker--

You can also use Oracle's Virtualbox to run windows, then get windows and run roblox on that...
