Instead of having every petition locked away in some forum that the mods never seem to look at, what if each petition had a special place where it could actually be done. There would be a new tab that said "Petition" on the top menu bar and, when clicked, it would bring you to a page that looks a lot like the forum page. When you click on one of the petitions, you can choose to "Sign" the petition. When 51% or more of the Roblox users have signed the petition, it will be sent to the developers, showing them what the community thinks about certain things. Hopefully this has been outlined enough for you to understand my concerns, and thank you for your time.

I thought petitions were deemed as spam... Well, there's a few factors that need to be looked into...

No clue why a petition voicing the view point of hundereds of users should be viewed as spam :/

The path the voice brings is like a coin flip. It can go either way. It's a gamble.

Which is why it is sent to the developers for further review

Apparently, no matter what is updated, there's always a fraction that is upset.

how would that work? 51% or more would have to be out of the community. a bunch of our community is inactive...

ROBLOX is a company and not a Democracy, so they do not necessarily have to listen to petitions of any kind. Also, my guess is that most petitions you would see would be WNTS material, specifically more/fewer NBC/BC rights.

@tahu The petitions are sent to devs, and the devs can sort through those. @Everyone else Ah, then how about 51% of the people who make an "account" for the petitions that had to be renewed every 2 or 3 days. Those people could sign and be counted.

ROBLOX uservoice has something similar to this. You can up-vote suggestions on uservoice.
