This will help with botting but can you please lower the fee price for shirts and pants it could be 5 robux and for t-shirts it could be 2 robux. An expensive fee like this would kill off much of the catalog since most users wont be able to pay the fee its like creating a group cause a group is 100 robux but doing that every time you upload a clothing asset.
No worries at all! Ty for your understanding
I honestly think that to much has been blocked behind premium and it is still worth buying it.
This is honestly devastating to small designers. Weâre now out of the business. We canât afford the 100 fee, many of us would be lucky to make that from 5 or 6 outfits. The rich are gonna get richer and thatâs it, it doesnât help the rest of us from bots. New designers wonât get into the market cause they donât have starting funds. Roblox has now officially set the date of execution for the design community and whoâd have thought it would be so soon?
Quite the double-edged sword here. On one hand, the fact that, after 12 years, uploading shirts and pants is no longer restricted to BC/Premium is pretty neat. On the other, paying a fee for each individual shirt and pants you upload seems a bit steep if youâre either a small designer, lack the funds, or your clothing isnât getting much traction.
While this may slow down the clothing theft, it wonât stop it. There are a multitude of groups dedicated to stealing and re-uploading clothing, with or without Premium, and I donât think the fee is going to deter them. This is possibly a step in the right direction, but the core problem is twofold;
-
- How easy it is to steal clothing.
-
- The groups that exist that give thieves a platform.
Those two issues sorely need to be addressed in order to stem the tide of stolen clothing.
Thatâs a nice change but personally I would like to be able to change how the shirt looks so I donât have to pay a double fee if I want to update the looks of that shirt.
If we can afford it. Which, Iâd say a good 80% of us canât. The bots that can still afford it will be much bigger than us no matter what fee is put in the way!
At least make the fee lower when you have premium because i donât want to have use 40 robux just for a shirt. So just make the fee lower if you have premium.
you see, the problem with this is that all of the botted clothing being uploaded rn, are uploaded by premium accounts, thus, this wouldnât solve anything, I think instead the fee would have to be lowered instead
Pretty sure the fee is 100 robux, and yes I agree that premium players should either have it lowered or free.
I support this change 100%. I appreciate your efforts in trying to prevent upload abuse which has been a reoccurring thing for the past years.
Some will despise this change, but I approve!
Edit: after doing further reading and gaining the perspective of other clothing designers in this thread, I can see why some are upset with this change.
I think many are just upset with the fact that they have a financial limitation on making clothing on Roblox now, which again is understandable. Buying 400R costs $4.99 USD (unless you live in another country). Getting premium is the same price except you have more freedom in doing stuff.
As somebody mentioned, this change is a bit of a double-edged sword, which I agree with. I personally think itâs a good concept â just wish they lowered the price or provided more leeway, like make it so premium members are still able to upload free.
I seriously hope this update doesnât come. The best solution is to charge 100 Robux for non-premium users. With this update, many small designers including me will have to stop creating clothes. May I add, an average shirt usually gets around 5 sales. A lot of designers will stop since they canât afford the fee and theyâre not profiting.
I feel that if you are a successful clothing group with quality assets that you would definitely earn back your ROBUX spent. The fee will lower the amount of clothes on the catalog making it easier to get found possibly
Interesting, this will force Roblox clothing developers to up their prices for their clothing from the accustomed 5 Robux value thatâs not realistic at all.
Ok⌠For upload Shirt you donât need the premium, but you have to pay Robux? And some many people have said this: This is not helping new developer and that will not stop a guy who want to steal a cloth⌠So I donât think this is a good update. We need to find a real system to stop people spamming asset in the Avatar Shop like the actual UGC system.
I maybe have one idea: When you upload something, Roblox checks if that clothing already exists, and if it does, you canât upload and you have to contact Roblox moderation team (wich I hope that will improve some day). And I know that you want to say:
âBut Eternal, what if a bot already uploaded my clothing? What do I do then?â
Then, you can talk with the moderation team (again, you will need to hope), remove the botted item, get the robux that the bot made with your cloths and you can upload your right cloth. And the best thing is that bots canât really write messages like humans, so they canât contact the support team. Now, you will have to hope that the moderation team actually are humans that wants to help you and not just bots, but I hope that someone can understand what I mean!
I personally donât like this update. First, what will premium users benefit from this update? Will they be able to upload for free? I hope so.
Second, why make us pay 100 robux? In my opinion it seems too much, because weâre paying 100 robux per clothing uploaded, and we have a low chance of it being successful.
Third, make it to where premium users can benefit from this update. Let premium users upload for free.
Most players bought premium to be able to upload clothing. I feel weâre getting ripped off if we wonât benefit from this update.
I understand clothing bots are an issue, but I donât think this will stop them. For example, someone who makes an original clothing piece and uploads an unwatermarked template to Discord (for example), then someone can easily steal it without the original creator knowing, and upload it to Roblox, if they have 100 robux.
Please Roblox, give premium users a benefit. Let us upload for free, or make a clothing designer program. Make it to where we have to show weâre trusted, like how we have to show weâre trusted here on the DevForum.
If not, please rethink this. You guys risk losing tons of players because of premium becoming useless (besides a certain amount if robux per month). Many people bought premium to be able to start their clothing designing career.
thank you roblox for doing updates that literally no one asked for
you guys seriously just focus on updates that people ask forâŚ
Good to see that you care about the clothing catalog , I do have some suggestion to make it better:
- Players with premium donât have to pay for uploading one (or less Robux)
- Limiting the number of clothing uploads per user weekly just like UGC (I believe that UGC has a limitâŚ)
