Ambassador Badge.

The Ambassador Program was a feature, allowing both free players and Builders Club members to gain more tickets.  The program was released on April 22, 2009, along with the extension of 32 more character and in-game colors.

Players had to post a ROBLOX link to another website.  Each link would award all players two tickets per domain.  With three active links, the Ambassador badge would be given.  Ever since the feature came out, hundreds of players received the badge, as well as a gift, costing 2,000 ROBUX later on.

A cap was also set for all players to prevent abusing the system.  The max was set to 50 links.

The program was removed on March 6, 2012 due to large amounts of players abusing the system.  There are players who still own the badge.

Linking

  1. Visit ROBLOX's Ambassador page.
  2. An HTML link was supplied which was used to be copied and pasted onto another site.  The exact code must have been pasted, otherwise it would not work.
  3. Submit the link with the exact off-site page.  The link would have been seen before given credit.

Removal

On March 6, 2012, ROBLOX announced that the Ambassador Program was removed as a part of simplifying ROBLOX.

Social Media Manager, Taylor Whitmer reported to everyone, knowing that this feature was only used to make profit and had no usage for promotions:

After two years of experimenting, we have realized that the program is not as valuable as players who come to us through word of mouth or through social media.  The Ambassador Program became spammy, which we realized was not a benefit to our players or other websites.  We have looked at the numbers, and we simply don't have enough users to justify continuing the program.  Part of being a healthy company and an elegant service is removing things rather than adding them.

Despite that, the Ambassador Program was still a way for users to make money, and there is still many ways to gain them.

Some players still want it back due to the fact that they want to make more tix/robux.
