MrFatCat, not all the servers are down for long periods of times, Just the one that you want to be in, stop complaining about it.
Second, You don't have to pay to test it, it's all a test, just because indev is premium user only, well you're a premium user, stop complaining about it.
I myself Came from roblox.... I admit the Community is about as appealing as my sweaty socks, but I believe the game has many good things, as well as bad.
Say, in comparison, to minecraft, Here goes nothing.
Roblox has smoke - Minecraft has fire
Roblox updates about once a month - Minecraft's indev updates daily(ish)
Roblox has about 20 Devs - Minecraft has 1(or two, with Dock)
Roblox Has more customization with bricks and blocks - Minecraft has easier to place blocks.
Roblox has loads of lags, when there are many bricks. - Minecraft has loads of lag, when there are many Chunk updates.
Roblox has Lua - Minecraft has a Dev who is more likely to read about what you want, and add it.
Roblox has Basic AIs. - Minecraft has Basic, but inherently different AIs. (Ex. Spider has a different AI than skeletons)
Roblox has Dynamic Shadows - Minecraft has Dynamic Lights.
Roblox has been up for six years. - Minecraft has been up for 7 Months
Roblox is full of small children, who live to make your life horrid. - Minecraft has people who swear for no reason, other than they think it makes them "cooler" (you know who you are)
Roblox has Physics - Minecraft has Froggettes. No contest. (Froggettes win!)
The list could go for pages.
Altogether, I think both of them are good, in their own right. If I want to build highly intricate cathedrals, for instance, I choose Roblox. If I want to test my skills of survival, or flood water in epic ways, I choose minecraft.
If I want a Highly interesting Combat mech, I go for Roblox. If I want to explore my Pyromanic tendencies, I choose /indev/
Edit:
I remember MrFatCat for Roblox. I remember him as always being a kind fellow, oh well. Meh, I suppose, if anyone posts on the Roblox forums, I'd know them.... Roblox Forum Profile

Back in my day, sheep dropped brown mushrooms, and by golly we... Hated it, pretty much.
Minecraft is more serious than ROBLOX, if you'll believe me.
Also, Minecraft doesnt have a literal asston of
"GET EETEN BY A GIENT DORAH FOR TIXXXXXXX"
"BLOW UP [variable] AND BE A VIP"
"HERPDERP OBBY COURSE"
So it's much better automatically.
EDIT: And you know what, adding an economy ruins just about everything if it's done wrong. ROBLOX did it wrong.

I am NOT going to see friend requests, so stop sending them.
I made a general assumption there. There are always exceptions, and that should be taken for granted by now. mrfatcat came from ROBLOX, and he seems to be doing fine here. Hell, he started two big projects. Aexis_Rai came from ROBLOX, and he is a very cool cat himself.

Raise my dragons please!!
Agreed. I think the main thing is it isn't just 4 year olds playing this game and it is a lot more for your money.
Everything about it.
I DO SAY THAT RIPE BANANAS TASTE FAR BETTER THAN ONES STILL RIPENING.
That is just about the only accurate comparison though.

I don't know about you, but there are better ways to convey a repetitious message than repeating the descriptor itself.
You're points are correct, if overly ad hominem.

I've had problem with MrFatCat for a while now, especially within our servers, but also on the forums. He won't even join it if I'm in the room.
He's a "Reformed" Griefer as he's told us. "He doesn't do it anymore"

We hardly have to advertise our servers, and even if we did it wouldn't be just to get virtual money for hats or something
The worst thing about ROBLOX ads is that they are sprinkled- nay- FILLED with memes from pretty much everywhere on the internet.
