The main issue here, is that Devforum regulars are discontinued and are currently in this infinite pending stage. I’m sure I’m not the only one speaking here, in saying that I have wayyy more posts and wayyy more time/likes/solutions in Devforum while still remaining at a normal rank simply because I was too late to getting Regular.
This locks me out of already so many features as is, which is such a pain.
Glad to see civil conversation over here!
As far as I’m aware, the entire section will be locked and archived, and you’re intended to move anything by September first.
Can we expect to see a filtering system to eliminate poor/troll posting. Otherwise, the more professional and experienced developers will find it just as difficult to find work.
A belated update on this - the problems causing some people to incorrectly see the ‘not authorized’ message should now be resolved. If you continue to see the ‘not authorized’ message, please check back every few days to see if you’ve since been given access!
I’ve been waiting quite a long time to see an overhaul in the hiring process. It’s laughable in it’s current state. I’m quite sad I’m not in the current bunch with access. Been waiting awhile since I have absolutely no source of commissions with the current system. Though, with the Aug. 15 date, it’s around the corner and exciting!
As I said here, it seems like Roblox is trying to mold the Development scene into something they favor. This is very clearly something that’s professional and clean. 18+ Devs making nearly AAA games for high profits. When done with a project or seeking out new studios, they go out to find new associates. If the Talent Hub is heavily moderated, then I could see my prophecy of Roblox turning AAA Studios into puppets becoming true. This is a risky era of Roblox. But, I’m glad I’ll see it.
This is a fantastic step forward for the platform!
Developers both new and experienced can now properly recruit and collaborate more easily than ever before. This is something that I think many of us have wanted for a long time, as the current methods of finding developers and also respectively showing yourself off are quite old fashioned and usually quite inefficient or ineffective depending on where you’re looking.
Having an official hub for this is going to change the way in which Roblox teams and developers think about approaching new projects, and hopefully easing the stress and time it takes to do so.
I’ve already setup my own profile and am enjoying the site currently.
Yeah, I really wish there were concrete requirements. What does “most engaged developers” even mean? Is it for only regulars? Is it based on how frequently you post? Is it based on the popularity of your posts? I wish we knew.
