ROBLOX nostalgia anyone? (In your face, you people arguing about nostalgia!)

[Decepticon]

So, I was looking at some videos and found this;

(It's the old ROBLOX trailer)
I remember logging into my profile on ROBLOX and seeing this trailer, then playing that old classic "Survive a plane crash!" (Not the billion-copied one) and then probably playing that Rob-The-Bank classic.

God the memories, I also never found out how to do things like make buildings like that.

I miss the old roblox. Good times, good old times on Haxers or whatever there name was on roblox. Also hardly any of the old roblox games work now. :(

oh yes, roblox was one of the first games i ever played, out of all of the games i used to play.

[Trogtor]

Oh goood it was great.

[Decepticon]

I remember seeing ROBLOX ads back in 2007 but I never played it because my grandmother didn't allow me to play it, but around late 2008 or early 2009 I got permission to play it.

I think I feel sick with nostalgia now..

you guys don't get nostalgia, you guys are what 14, 15? nostalgia is a long period ago, like 20 years, stop saying you have nostalgia, it wasn't even like 5, 6 years ago. lol, you act like its such a long time ago.

[Snuffers_]

it may have not been 20 years ago, but a lot has changed on roblox. so its nostalgia in a way.

Awww man, I remember making friends with Y05H1M4N back in 08 or 07.

Roblox 08 was some of the most fun I ever had in Roblox.

No it's just memories from when the game was good, runescape isn't even nostalgia.

just watch this video, it's pretty much right in every way.

was released in 2005, it's 2013, this was released 8 years ago, how old are you? not even 15 I'm guessing, I don't see in any possible way that you can get nostalgia, i'm 15 and I don't even get nostalgia over runescape even though I've played it since 2005.

And so begins another topic where everyone says something along the lines of,

"IT USED TO BE BETTER"

"IT'S SO stuffTY NOWADAYS"

"2008 WAS BEST YEAR"

Not trying to be a richard, but this is literally all the skiddies on the forums over there say too. In complete honesty, as a member from March 11, 2008, i think the game is fine. Exploiters are kinda stuffty, and there is a money lust falling over the company but i still play. I mostly just play with TD, who some might know as 1AmyRose1 who was stuffastically popular back in the day for being a "Girl."

In the end, talking about the past like some kinda 90's Nick really just gets old. Not dismissing the topic though. All is well in talking about old features, just not saying the whole "IT WAS SO MUCH BETTER WITH ALL THE LACK OF CONTENT AND NO ANIMATIONS." nonsense. It's silly.

I do miss a lot of old assets for explosions and fire effects. Also a lot of stuff was broken in studio that is kinda disappointing. The terrain was a waste of time. Gygax is best hat.

I joined early 2008 around the 21st of December. If only I knew about the game earlier like in 2007.

I also remember signing up to ROBLOX HQ in mid 2009. I made place reviews, I kept track of stocks, I played with the noob-meter which displays your level in ROBLOX when you input your stats, and then I made an account on the RHQ forums. Good times.

As of now, everything is long gone. The games I played back in 2008 were now inaccessible, the RHQ site is completely broken, and the RHQ forums got shutdown.

Please don't turn this into an argue topic

RHQ was a bunch of autists who got respect for dumb reasons. Be happy it was Dox'd and stuff by a guy that i know and hate because of his awful Miley Cirrus addiction.

pretty sure he meant to a roblox vs blockland type of thind bud lol.

i'm just pointing out that none of this is nostalgia, and its not.
