Here are a few misconceptions people have about Rthro. I don't use Rthro, but there are some concerns people have about it.

"Rthro removes the blocky theme of Roblox."

This one is somewhat true, but it's not like Roblox removed the old blocky avatars or anything. We'll get into this more below with another misconception.

"Devs will force us to use Rthro in their game."

While, yes many Roblox devs do want to add more realistic looking avatars in their games (that's why most of them use R15 in their games), Rthro avatars come in packages, so devs can't force Rthro on at default. Devs can (and do) however force Rthro scaling on at default, and this is something I actually disagree with because I think people should choose if they want their avatars to be taller and more realistic or not.

"Rthro will cause online dating."

This one is very stupid. Most of the Rthro packs are fantasy-themed, so people likely wouldn't use them for their virtual dating experience in Roblox. Also, most of the people who use Rthro are using it for ironic purposes, not to try to date other players.

"Roblox will remove R6 and R15."

This is probably the stupidest misconception of them all. Just because Roblox added a more realistic avatar type, does NOT mean they'll remove the old blocky avatars.

"Rthro will ruin Roblox."

With all the things I stated above, no Rthro will not ruin Roblox.
