About time to be honest. No more will we need to deal with the case where a player’s UserId is below zero.
Discord does something like this, you “reserve” a username, and then you can finish account creation later.
I’ve got this on my brain now O_e
*exploiting guests
RIP guests. You will always be a part of the old legacy.
I wonder if usernames with spaces will ever be coming back now.
Au Revoir Guests
I think that would be neat, and very possible.
I’m never gonna forget the classic guests they would jus walk right up to you… and just… FRIEND
It’s amazing how sweet yet aggressive it felt
I started reading this thread by saying “good riddance!”
I ended this thread by mentally tearing up a bit.
What’s going to happen to the Promotion revenue from signups or is this another revenue stream that is being removed?
I originally thought this too but then realised it doesn’t really matter:
So any ‘guest’ that finds your game, signs up and then plays will count (I assume)
I think this would need clarification. Since you have probably already signed up before seeing the games, (Home page has no link to games before login which is a whole other issue to do with user experience) you wont have been on a game, then signed up because it is an impossible task.
The removal of guests mean the players now have to sign up before they can play the game. I sincerely hope that if they sign up from there you get the signup statistic. (By the way, Roblox staff, redirecting to home page with a return URL really breaks flow, especially since there are multiple forms on the page i’m taken to and doesn’t look anything like the same site I was just on apart from by name. Might I suggest a form that appears just like the one that does if I’m not logged in and click play?)
RIP Guests, glad I found all the cool guest numbers like 1337 before this . Understand the change, but will miss guests!
What game?
[ Content Deleted ] - Roblox, since been taken down, but pretty much every single player was a guest idle in spawn.
I wasn’t aware this kind of system existed, haha.
I always thought the people who developed these systems weren’t particularly adept at it (after reading the horrificly bad code behind other malicious programs )
