UGC Catalog is Now Live!

I think it should be allowed if it has something to make it visibly different e.g. a flower or a bow e.t.c

I still can’t get over this, but did you just gatekeep what it means to be a trader?

It’s a white tophat, of course they are going to look similar. It doesn’t mean they’re a copy of each other. Just because something looks similar doesn’t mean it was copied. Two people can have the same idea and can make a take off of that idea.

Will there ever be a time when all developers are able to create UGC accessories? It seems like ROBLOX is only accepting specific people. The moderation system might be needed for making UGC.

This is part of their eventual goal. Once they’ve been able to fully develop systems that protect the catalog and work in the pilot group, they will start to accept more people; with the eventual aim of it being open to (nearly) everyone.

Currently, I am pretty sure that only certain countries can be allowed in the UGC program.
As looking on Twitter, I am seeing that is this only available to other countries and not ones like North America, will that change?

That’s weird, I would imagine UGC would be available in all country’s, but I saw that to so Idk.

Twitter is, generally, not a reliable source.

I absolutely agree with this. The UGC program is basically a program for close friends. It’s absolutely unfair to those with actual talent, that random people get invited just for being friends-of-friends.

The program is still in beta. It will be expanded once they’ve been able to deal with some of the infamous flaws with the program.

Honey that’s the point of Closed Beta. It’s supposed to be closed. They don’t want random people using it. As they don’t have trust with random people.

I don’t understand how roblox even approves some of these hats

You’re practically making a very sought after item become purchasable

No? It’s not the same colour and it has a different colour band, so I don’t see how that’s a direct copy of the Roblox hat you mentioned. Plus, the mesh is completely different.

I’m going to have to agree. Was it inspired by the WBRTH? Probably, but it’s not a direct rip off. There is enough of a difference to make it its own hat without the UGC mods needing to decline it.

Here’s a random red top hat I found on the web. Should note that it’s not even close to being similar to the WBRTH, given the lack of a white band (which is the hats definining feature).

And by now, it’s already made the history of ROBLOX.

No, the UGC one had lighter red band, the color RED, larger, no reflection. Different mesh, different colors.

Being in “beta” isn’t an excuse for repeating the same mistake.
Roblox removed the nominations process from applying to the dev forum due to the controversy surrounding favoritism within the voters.

They then made the galaxy brained decision to bring back the flawed nominations process, only to have the same flaws resurface again.

They learned nothing.

Is this still only available to people in Europe, and others not including NA. I think that is what I see. I’ve seen a few videos now and I’ve seen some things like: Since there is UGC and there in it, there friends gets to come in unlike the others who deserve the credit and to be in UGC.

This isn’t exactly a rip off of an existing item but its clearly just an excuse for these UGC creators to make faces.

This new “trend” in UGC is pretty dumb in my opinion, as well as the “cartoony rainbow head” having an outline (another UGC “trend” that I think is dumb) it has eyes which at first glance makes it look just like a face.
These are similar:
