They are deliberately slowing down their servers to force people to go try their gametest site.
I am the one who probably caused the no PC Games talk rule, because I posted often about other games and of course they are manipulative.
Also its just another day as Sheledsky attempts to "Wow" the 6 year old mindless players with the completion of the shadows by making them be cast by EVERYTHING in-game, claiming its an improvement on the Ambient Lighting (Its actually a step BACK from anything near Dynamic Lighting because it would complicate coding such a thing, plus it is just another waste of time because it isn't an IMPROVEMENT on it but instead the FINAL COMPLETION of it).
Just another day in watching them either wow or torture their players. Any questions? Mr Creeper is here all week.
Used to play a lot before being account deleted, then I played a bit more and forumed some more, officially quit, but created an alt to watch ROBLOX and its Corporation's failures AS the entertainment.
Meh. I've basically quit roblox for this. And I don't regret it. And were'd you find it anyway? I used to forum and every now and then play one of my old favorite games on there. It's old now though.
I quit ROBLOX for this reason too, and one other reason. It's not about building games like it used to be back when I joined in '08. Now it's about Pixelfame and Pixelcash and stupid, overpriced, re-textured hats that are only available to those willing to waste $25 a month on ****.
25 bucks a month for a lego ripoff game?!Did I read that right?
Even [lol] "adult" games limit it to about 20 [redlight district is 20 a month unless they changed in the last couple of years]

The mess is that the Corporation has been changing their targeted market, from people older than 10 to kids around 6, and it creates a massive complication of changing the site. Ultimately its been disastrous, and the game looks like crap. The corporation has put TOO MANY to count "Rules" that are really just way to control our choices on the website, basically manipulating us into buying BC TBC or OBC along with preventing ANY talk about competitors. In other words, the corporation and the way they control the website fits EVERY stereotype created about big, money wanting, awful corporations.
They saw second life and said, hey lets do that, i want a hot tub. Then they realized how shitty their game was and resigned to weeping.
Naw, i played that game once like, years ago, really buggy. But i do hear alot of talk about how nazi-ish the forums there are, so meh, fail company.
We (ROBLOX Forums, not Minecraft Forums) are nazi-ish for some reason, we discriminate against other sections of the same forum, we have groups and stories about each other, and we pretty much waste our time there forming this cult.

Wait... What forum do you post in there? I'm a OTer. Heh. For all you pure minecraft guys, OT means Off-topic.
How do you know it was deliberate? It could just be that the main servers were having issues, so they were trying to help you by sending you to a site that was running smoothly.
I March 2010, I found Roblox and joined. 3 days later, I discovered a trojan virus on my computer. The source? The Roblox play client. Thier fix was to get a new firewall.
I found a ton of stuff about Gary's Mod and it sounded like Roblox. All Roblox really is is a re-texture and a step back from Gmod.
A lifetime membership to Roblox is $200, a deluxe lifetime membership is $300.
Most of the servers really are PvP, simple builds, or mod showcases.
Heck, almost all of the stuff is User-made, for the most part. a mod.
I ran 20 FPS at max on Roblox.
The game's graphics are far from clear. Fuzzy, unprofessional graphics.
Roblox contains no dynamic lighting or realistic water.
In October 2010, I found Minecraft and officially said "good bye and good riddance" to Roblox.
Sorry for the wall fo text, just thought I'd take my rage out on the bottomless mod game in a polite and calm manner, after all, it DID almost ruin my computer.
How do you know it was deliberate? It could just be that the main servers were having issues, so they were trying to help you by sending you to a site that was running smoothly.
Oh, no, no, no. See, to make themselves feel better, they have to make up ridiculous assumptions that pin every possible problem (and even things that aren't really problems) on the admins, or the mods, or the community; basically, everyone who doesn't give a ****. That way, they don't have to be told they messed up when it turns out, as usual, that they're wrong. It's the perfect self-esteem builder.
i played roblox when it had less 6 year olds but when i saw l4d2 i fell in love with it and then in august i saw lps for minecraft and decided to buy it

They deliberately said, like they were marketing it, that Gametest had no lag. But seriously, WHERE DOES A PROBLEM LIKE THIS EVEN COME FROM? How does the site go from moving at the speed it was to ALMOST A COMPLETE STOP and then ROBLOX.com attempts to advertise a place without lag? Its on purpose.
Also if its a technical problem with the website that is occurring among a general number of users, THEN THE DEVELOPERS SCREWED UP BECAUSE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE CODING UPDATES, THEN TESTING IT, THEN EITHER LOOK OVER IT OR ADD IT TO THE GAME DEPENDING ON WHETHER GAME PLAY IS HARMED OR NOT. If the rules have gone from mild to ridiculous, in a way that favors the corporation, THEN THE MODERATION IS COMPLETELY IN THE CORPORATION'S CONTROL AND REFLECTING ITS EVERY WANT TO CONTROL US ON THE SITE. If the community starts spitting out "i r wunz AKLJDJKLF" repeatedly, THE COMMUNITY IS CRUD. What else do I have to say?
