We wanted to share an update on experience events. Starting this week, we are experimenting with surfacing events more prominently on the Experience Details page. This is the first of several improvements we are making to help users discover relevant updates and events that you share.
Running events in your experience to highlight the latest update, or just to get your community excited about an activity, continues to be a fantastic way to grow your success. This is why we have been focused on ensuring your existing users - as well as new ones - know when new things are happening within your experience. Previously, we released improved metadata support so you can make your events more expressive, and also added Events as a tab to your Group Page.
We will be testing upranking the event in your experience details page to various positions, as well as upranking with a total redesign of the tile, using the new metadata features. Initially this will just be on the web, with an experiment afterwards focused on all other platforms.
Why are we telling you all of this so early on? Two reasons:
Even in experimental form, these changes will likely improve the discovery of experience events. By giving you this heads up, you have a week or two to run an event, or organize an event around your next upcoming update.
Help us help you. We encourage you to use the events system to help Roblox learn about the impact that the improved visibility has on your engagement and the overall ecosystem
Let us know if you have any questions! We’re super excited about this next phase of experience events, and can’t wait to continue on this journey together with you all. Keep an eye out, more announcements coming up!
im all for the gravy train of hating unneccessary AI but this is like the one situation where it fits
this is basically the image version of using “lorem ipsum”,
The experiment is live now on web, with the app versions soon to follow! Note that we also recently moved the entry point to publishing Events in the Creator Hub. You can now find it located under Manage Experience > Engagement > Events.
Because Roblox Studio stills caters to billions as it’s part of Roblox itself to allow players with or without skills to create a game while this is just a Devforum post with short burst of attention. The templates are long-term and the posts are short-term catered to specific group of people who have access to the Devforum.
This is really the most acceptable use case coming from someone who already hates most merdaslop games using AI (my ahh) thumbnails on Roblox’s front page.
