I'm sick of ROBLOX on Scratch, scratch is it's own programming language. Though some Scratchers(not me!) like roblox, it is not be talked about on Scratch. I'm no Forum Mod or Scratch Team but here are my reason on why:

Why I think Scratch is way better(let's point out the word "I")
1. Roblox does NOT have an as wide diversity of projects to create Yes, but not as "projects", but "places" and "models". Isn't that MORE limiting? (As projects being universal, places and models being limited to the context?)
2. You can not create your own graphics, you MUST use the one's avalible from roblox You can also upload your own "decals", images you can use in a brick's surface. But you can't use your own 3D models/shapes.
3. You NEED to download the game to play it, this also can take a very long time If your connection is slow, yep. BUT IT'S STILL SLOW!!! RAAFGRGHASDGF</psycho>
4. Though it has 3D already, you can import 3D images to Scratch(blender etc.) But Scratch can't render 3D files. Actually, it can. *cough* Raycaster *cough*
5. You can NOT make projects on video games/TV/movies/ PC games, because you can't import pictures of them, you must use the roblox characters(or you can create it, but it won't look good). I've seen some people upload pictures of videogame covers, characters, and other stuff. OK, fine.
6. Games can be confusing to play, this is either from the diversity or the author not giving enough information Agreed. OK.

Reasons why it shouldn't be talked about Scratch(some will be direct to this forum)
1. Scratch is it's own programming language Yup Ok...
2. This forum is no way related to scratch, and then ^ point is repeated. I think you mean "topic"  wink But that statement doesn't reach a conclusive point...
3. Roblox has ads, which may link to commercial sites. Magic words: IGNORE THEM. Ignoring them doesn't make them not exist... Oh wait it does. * YOU QUANTUM MECHANICS!
4. I have more..... I want to read these "more", please.

Roblox players, please do not take offence.

1. Roblox does NOT have an as wide diversity of projects to create Yes, but not as "projects", but "places" and "models". Isn't that MORE limiting? (As projects being universal, places and models being limited to the context?) You can create badges now too. Models can be anything, as can places.

3. You NEED to download the game to play it, this also can take a very long time If your connection is slow, yep. BUT IT'S STILL SLOW!!! RAAFGRGHASDGF</psycho> It's not slow for me. Maybe you have a slow computer or left a lot of programs running...
4. Though it has 3D already, you can import 3D images to Scratch(blender etc.) But Scratch can't render 3D files. Actually, it can. *cough* Raycaster *cough* You'd need a LOT of costumes.
5. You can NOT make projects on video games/TV/movies/ PC games, because you can't import pictures of them, you must use the roblox characters(or you can create it, but it won't look good). I've seen some people upload pictures of videogame covers, characters, and other stuff. OK, fine. Use decals or meshes.

Reasons why it shouldn't be talked about Scratch(some will be direct to this forum)
1. Scratch is it's own programming language Yup Ok... It's in Inspiration and more.
2. This forum is no way related to scratch, and then ^ point is repeated. I think you mean "topic"  wink But that statement doesn't reach a conclusive point... True.
3. Roblox has ads, which may link to commercial sites. Magic words: IGNORE THEM. Ignoring them doesn't make them not exist... Oh wait it does. * YOU QUANTUM MECHANICS! You don't even have to look at them.

(As projects being universal, places and models being limited to the context?) You can create badges now too. Models can be anything, as can places. I'll go with Tux's statement.
2. You can not create your own graphics, you MUST use the one's avalible from roblox You can also upload your own "decals", images you can use in a brick's surface. But you can't use your own 3D models/shapes. If you use meshes, you can. Yes, there's an admin-controlled account which can upload good enough meshes you've made.
3. You NEED to download the game to play it, this also can take a very long time If your connection is slow, yep. BUT IT'S STILL SLOW!!! RAAFGRGHASDGF</psycho> It's not slow for me. Maybe you have a slow computer or left a lot of programs running... What Tux said. It's less than a MB heavy IIRC, even a WiFi connection could download it (but not handle the real thing, obviously)
4. Though it has 3D already, you can import 3D images to Scratch(blender etc.) But Scratch can't render 3D files. Actually, it can. *cough* Raycaster *cough* You'd need a LOT of costumes. Rendering 3D images with, say, Scratch's pen, is really slow and not fast enough to make a game out of it.
5. You can NOT make projects on video games/TV/movies/ PC games, because you can't import pictures of them, you must use the roblox characters(or you can create it, but it won't look good). I've seen some people upload pictures of videogame covers, characters, and other stuff. OK, fine. Use decals or meshes.

2. This forum is no way related to scratch, and then ^ point is repeated. I think you mean "topic"  wink But that statement doesn't reach a conclusive point... True. The topic was now moved to Inspiration and more, so ignore this point
3. Roblox has ads, which may link to commercial sites. Magic words: IGNORE THEM. Ignoring them doesn't make them not exist... Oh wait it does. * YOU QUANTUM MECHANICS! You don't even have to look at them.
4. I have more..... I want to read these "more", please. Me too.

Roblox players, please do not take offence.

Best argument ever.
