Look. The priority of scammers is not to grant "free robux" and scam others, which may seem wrong to you, but, their priority is to ruin Roblox itself. Every time a scammer uses a new method (such as the /me command) more and more people want to remove the feature because some scam bots are using it. As scammers adapt to more and more ways, lots of features on Roblox are requested to be removed. The more features are removed, the fewer things you can do in Roblox. The less freedom you have. Scammers are like an infection. They spread, they multiply, and they conquer. I believe that Roblox takes more time into finding more ways to stop scammers in their roots than to find more specific and eventually useless tactics.

This would explain why they spend more time "inactive" rather than fighting the scammers on the front line. They are working out a plan to destroy them from their "base".
