I sometimes wonder if Roblox is trying to make itself terrible.

Just kidding, i wondered that just now.

It's spooky season so watch this if you want to be creeped out (It's an Undertale video so spoilers but also it won't make sense unless you've played the full game so)

well. if they would keep tix for visits and make making games easier, people would make too much money and everyone would be rich, making roblox boring and people slowly going away.

Honestly, I don't see why ROBLOX would get boring because everyone was rich.

But seriously, I used to play this game. I wanna play it again.
you wouldn't want to play it again it's an awful game
It isn't an awful game itself but the rude, immature 6 year olds (no offence, 6 year olds of Scratch, you guys are mostly good) that really put me off.
but what about the ways roblox attempt to make money

There's also this in the Parents section:
Roblox uses a state-of-the-art filtering system that actively filters for inappropriate chat everywhere on the site and in-game.
They might as well just filter out everything in chat. And removing TIX was one of the worst things they could have done.
roblox removed tix so that only Builders Club members can customize themselves (unless one is able to make a good game with gamepasses, even then there has to be enough people playing your game for them to want to buy the game pass, even THEN one only receives part of the payment), and roblox seems to slowly be removing chat to rid of expressing one's self verbally. We might as well all play as guests. I'm not getting builders club anytime soon until they allow us to use some more vocabulary, and until we get an alternative for tix/get tix back, or they could have a free currency and a certain “store” for this currency. And about the chat, I believe this was because of an incident in which there was a much older player “chatting” with an eight-year-old girl in a disapproving way. While we all know that Roblox is trying to support this young girl and others that have experienced the same scenario, they should just let their players be exposed to how the internet responds to one another via chat, and encourage them to use the report button when someone isn't acting the right way, even if it is a friend.

ok why did I even try to write this ._.

I feel like Roblox is tumbling down the hill of terribleness. Not quite there yet, but approaching it.

IMHO, it's been at the bottom for a while now.

“Yipee, I did it!” the man said with glee,
“I've solved that darned riddle, I've solved it, you see!”
The sphinx simply smiled and shook her strange head,
“I'm afraid you're wrong, and therefore you're dead.”

Most people's games never get any attention, and I remember although there was a tux -> robux conversion system, I was never actually able to save up enough robux to buy a decent item. So I don't see how “everyone getting rich” would be a problem

There's no point in defending a corporation's greed

They filter every single word.
I hate roblox but it's playable so I play it all of the time.

“ikr” and “ik”(short for “I know, right?” and “I know”) get censored, too.

I remember I was playing Adopt and Raise a Cute Kid, and I was some sort of animal (I don't remember what), and I typed something like “Nameless / Stray” as my roleplay name and it got tagged…

I really only go on Roblox anymore to trade limiteds and invest other than trolling or the occasional edgy hangout game.

My account was made for somebody who was under 13- they were 5 years old at the time, and it was 2010, they were a year or two under my age, which was 6-8 years old. We used a guest account at the time for a few months, and in 2011 we created an account . I actually picked my username for them, that I didn't know that I would use that username for the rest of my time online: Raspykoo.. We played games on the same account- it was very fun. The good thing about those old days was that there was no filter for those under 13, there was safe chat unless you registered a parent account. And we did. If you registered a parent account, you would get access to free-chat, which was great.

A few years later (now) when parent accounts were removed, it started getting stricter, and stricter, and then I couldn't even chat with anybody anymore. It's sad, really. Now I just play games without chatting.

The good news, is that in 2017 that once 5 year old will turn 13, but only at the end of this year.

I can imagine this situation happening in ROBLOX.
Kid: “how old do you have to be to say numbers?”
Other Kid: “##”
“########”
“agh”
