Author Topic: Something I have to say about some people (not a drama)  (Read 940 times)

This is towards all the people who think ROBLOX is "bad", and Blockland is the best. No, this isn't a drama. It could be, but I don't think it is.

Now, seriously, if you're gonna bitch about it and get angry at them, you're going to make OUR community look bad. And I know you say "BUT BLOCKLAND IS BETR ROBLOX IS stuffTY".

Honestly, I don't know what you could be talking about. I personally think the community is bad, but the game is actually pretty fun when you get the right people. You can build anything, code things in LUA, and making some things to sell like shirts and pants isn't that hard.

Another reason people hate it is Builder's Club. OK, I get it. You all hate having to pay for something on a video game. Well gee, how do you think the creators get revenue? By letting the game be there for free? As far as I'm concerned, I have not seen a single MMORPG not do that. Final Fantasy may or may not count, because I rarely ever play that.

And finally: If you say ROBLOX is bad and you've never played it...go play it. It's not that bad, like I said. Most of the people around here don't even really care anymore, we even have a ROBLOX Megathread in Games and people aren't complaining at all, just showing off creations and other things.

*sigh* I had to get this off my chest, because I see too many people complaining and bitching about it all the time. Not just on here, but in-game too.

You can debate with me, you can agree with me, you can disagree with me, but honestly, I don't care. This is just something I had to say for everyone, and towards the ROBLOX is terrible & Blockland is betr people.

roblox itself is not bad
in comparison to blockland it is

imo

ROBLOX consumes too much bandwidth and their Studio tears my screen and their administrators never did anything to fix it. They just came up with the same bullstuff:
"Oh, we apologize about the problems you've been running into. We will get back to you as soon as possible!"

The reason I have never even visited the Roblox main page is because of all the negativity.

And also, I was banned for posting a Rick Roll youtube link while their administrators were doing the same. And my account finally got deleted when I made a survival game that contained breeding (the MC way, no humps) for "Adult/loveual Content"

pie i think the thing you have to realize is that there are a lot of active roblox members and they can't tend to your every need. often when you get a response like that, it's not because they don't want to help you, it's because they don't have the time.

for instance: on their forums, their "ROBLOX Talk" section has over 4x as many posts and 2x as many topics as our whole forum does. in total, their forums have 118,399,254 posts, 16.6x ours, and 15,755,247 topics, 75.1x ours. have fun managing that.

also your server probably got caught under some auto filter that they use to, again, control the masses. i don't mean to belittle Badspot's job in any way but he has a lot less to take care of than those guys do and while there are more of them total, there are also exponentially more active players.

i also hate how people have been bashing roblox a lot on the forums recently, it just doesn't make sense to me. come to this forum to discuss about this game or talk to people from this game, not to bash another game or talk to people about how awful a different game is.

The heck?

If I can get into my account, I'll show you.

Roblox isn't bad, the community is. I've admitted before that I have a membership there ( though it expires soon and I won't renew it ) and I'm not afraid to say it again.

Yeah but the thing is they have an entire company to manage it.

The vast majority of all forum topics are spammy "L2D threads", or "Last 2 digits" threads. When a thread is created, it is given a 9 digit number ( for simplicity let's say 123456789 ), and the last 2 digits ( in this case, 89 ) tell them their fortune or whatnot. These kinds of threads have to make up about 15% of the entire forum.

Isn't that a majority of 4chan games, like "if someone gets xx i'll kill myself" or something like that.

searching roblox website for "last 2 digits", "l2d" and "last 2 numbers" returns about 168,000 results. that's about 1%. while I'm willing to buy that that's a lot of posts, i don't think i'd ever buy that there are 2,195,287 (adds up to 15%) threads of people misspelling last 2 digits or whatever it would take for it to be omitted by my search. i know for a fact that there are plenty of ridiculous/spammy topics on the forums so i don't really see how that affects the point that they have a stuffload of stuff to take care of.

i have a feeling that company isn't entirely as large as you seem to think it is.

they hide the last digits post numbers on /b/

s4s is all about the doppels though

that's about 1%.

Well, looks like I heavily overestimated that one.
