Early Concepts

I managed to dig up an early concept of the Roblox Minifigure, which is surprisingly cautious of not infringing on LEGO copyrights, but instead ended up very similar to the Megablocks minifigure

I thought it might interest you people, so here it is:

Phase 1 seems to have gone missing though - Domos123 Talk | Contributions 23:53, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe we could add some of this to the History and development section. Jeremjay24 16:58, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Good idea - Domos123 Talk | Contributions 22:25, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Link is dead, returns 401 for me, please remove the text. 90.196.224.25 (talk) 11:59, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ugh... Archive.org hasn't archived it. At least we have the other reference to fall back on. - Domos123 Talk | Contributions 21:54, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request

{{editsemiprotected}}
I , as a player of Roblox, can make this article so that it isn't so much of an advertisement, and more of a " players POV ". I will accept full responsibility of any deletions, leading to the termination of my account.

Pottrpupptpals (talk) 21:23, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but that's not really a specific request that someone else can follow up on. If youre looking to edit the article what you need is to be autoconfirmed, which is to say that you have 10 edits, and youre almost there. You just need one more edit and then youll be able to edit semiprotected articles like this. Soap 21:28, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia is for neutral, noted, encyclopedic content, not things from "a players POV". 90.196.224.251 (talk) 11:21, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is part of the reason this article is like an "advertisement"

" Roblox has no pre-defined goals, unlike some games. " See how "unlike some games." points out that ROBLOX has features that other games do not? I didn't want to edit it in case someone disagreed, but everyone really should consider removing or changing this into a neutral-stand-point type viewpoint. Thanks. --ANormalUsername1 (talk) 04:18, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll try to fix that. Thanks for pointing that out! I was a little suspicious about that section. Jeremjay24 12:51, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the edit. Glad to see an imperfection bettered. --ANormalUsername1 (talk) 15:52, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reason why we don't yet have C class

User:Teancum told me that we need to follow the guidelines ABOVE. I need some help so volunteers will be welcome. Jeremjay24 19:06, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism

On Roblox, a lot of people hate how the Roblox staff is running the game, as well as lots of idiots, commonly called "noobs". Why not put this in? 66.67.22.212 (talk) 00:01, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I wish I could add that. I'm gonna see if forum threads are allowed. Jeremjay24 13:35, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is not relevant to the article at all. Under my normal account (which I need to log in to again soon), I deleted a huge table detailing Builders Club memberships. 90.196.224.251 (talk) 11:22, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't encyclopedic. Jeremjay24 22:05, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request from TheDevereux, 12 April 2010

{{editsemiprotected}} The most important aspects of the community were missed out. I'd like to add that in.

TheDevereux (talk) 22:36, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: Welcome. It doesn't work that way; you need to describe the change you want to make in a 'please change X to Y' level of detail and provide reliable sources for any factual change. Someone will stop by after that and insert your change into the article, unless there is a problem. Thanks, Celestra (talk) 22:50, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Profiles" Section

It isn't exactly encyclopaedic. Does anyone want to spend a large amount of time and effort re-writing it into real encyclopaedic content, or should it just be deleted?

- Domos123 Talk | Contributions 22:21, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, User:Pownu, the writer of the section, seems like a person in a conflict of interest. I'm sticking to removing it. Jeremjay24 19:29, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
pownu: I didn't make it terrible right?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Pownu (talkcontribs)
I have removed the section, and added a warning to Pownu's user page - Domos123 Talk | Contributions 21:49, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Grammatical Error

'Obstacle courses are the most common games, involving competition; it is also solo'

See the error? I can't think of what to write to correct it; would someone else please fix it? - Domos123 Talk | Contributions 22:31, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the "it is also solo" part. Jeremjay24 00:25, 27 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
