Also, you seem to not recognize the point of Paid Access. It's not so 'rich people can get richer' or that 'ROBLOX wants to make you buy Builders Club.' That's silly QQing from people who like to complain for the sake of complaining (Ever heard of the phrase 'Some just want to watch the world burn? Yeah, that's the vast majority of ROBLOX).

The idea of Paid Access was to give skilled builders the ability to monetize off of their work. You have to understand that some of the greatest builders in the community are doing this as a hobby. By allowing them to monetize their works through Paid Access and the Developer Exchange, ROBLOX hopes to give builders a reason to shift from ROBLOX as a hobby to a way to make side cash. This in theory would allow players to put more effort into their games and find new, creative ways to flesh them out. Did I really say anything about paid access? Did I really complain? No, all I meant to say was that if the game was made public then the poor people with no R$ and only tix can enter the game. I've seen videos of Welcome to Venezia, and it looks frankly amazing. But only the people who pay can see the amazingness. Not that I have anything against paid-access, of course, used in the right way. But if Sonic expands the audience there'll be a lot more traffic... I think. Although, I could be wrong.

I just didn't really flesh out my statement earlier. I really hope I've made it clear. Please just read and give some sort of feedback. No snark.

BTW, what exactly is QQing? And also, the last thing I'd want to see Roblox do is burn.
