Let’s not forget that Roblox also forcefully change many people’s avatar setting to R15 when it came out. So, most people whose accounts are often inactive are technically also counted as such and also, every new account that’s made is R15 and now, also uses the new dynamic heads. The truth is that their statistics are correct but they’re counting inactive accounts as people who willingly use it.
In my eyes, the amount of R15 users is a bit closer to 75% than 98%. I’ve honestly seen a lot more R6 users than Rthro users, so the amount of R6 users has to be a lot higher than 1%.
The issue is that since Roblox has forced many accounts to have R15 when it first came out, almost every single inactive account also got it, so the statistics are unfairly skewed with the addition of inactive accounts.
@@Hauntaku Maybe. Unfortunately, almost every popular Roblox game disallows gears, usually having their own game specific gears, like Brookhaven, for example.
rthro isn't forced on the platform? Unless you mean their promotional materials than I don't recall ever seeing a case of rthro being forced to roblox users
@@Abandonedaccount129 fym? Inactive accounts have always been changed to r15 or the more recent stevie standard virus. Never has an account have their avatar changed to full rthro.
Even if R15 is what 98% of the active player base uses, Roblox and it's avatars are about expressing yourself, and in my opinion, being able to use R6 is a part of that. Not saying R15 is bad, far from it, however, I believe in a platform that emphasizes creativity and being able to "Be anything you can imagine" everyone should have a choice between R6 and R15, as it is now.
I only use R15 because Roblox is too lazy to make R6 compatible with layered clothing and animations. R6 is good for those who use old gear, but Roblox is also lazy when it comes to fixing those items. Basically, Roblox's lack of focus has caused a division amongst their team and the community. It can easily be repaired if Roblox would just pay attention to the players for once.
And animators tend to seperate limbs for more impact for punch anims and such. What would that look like with layered clothing. Not saying this doesn't happen with r15 avatars, it's just a lot more common with r6 avatars.
Honestly wouldnt be surprised if its removed in a few or 10 years lol, and then they will realize tons of people get pissed and they readd it. I feel like thats a situation that might definitely happen.
Filter the R15/R6 ratio by accounts which played in the last few weeks and turned on R15 themselves and you'll find a drastic difference compared to their statistic.
nah it makes total sense that 98% of roblox users have R15 avatars, you already start with r15 when creating an account, and most people either never change their avatar or don't know that they can switch to r6 in a very hidden tab
@@Hauntaku the gear thing is so true like i kinda forgot you can just casually have gear in the games but so many games have it taken off and mostly people will prefer r15 because it allowes for layered clothing and animations in most games and walkstyles, avatar animations ect

i think new/inactive avatars get auto set to r15, so that could be why the statistic is so high because of how many bots and inactive accounts there are
i just dont understand why roblox is so against r6, i prefer it over r15 and rthro tbh (especially since they updated the classic animation and it looks. odd)
@@Hauntaku yep,blocky r15 should already be using mesh deformation it would look SOO much better,i mean i still wouldn't be using it in my games or anything since smooth animations are easier to make not look retarded on r6

Keep in mind: Throwaway bot accounts made in 2017 or later have R15 as the default body type. This goes to show the numbers had absolutely no filtering when it came to bots, throwaways, alts, etc.
A bit surprised it isn’t “98% rthro” but Roblox isn’t that dumb to create such an obvious lie. Shows that they have some extremely weak connections to the community that is left completely unused when making their bad decisions that both lose money and anger the community. This isn’t technically an outright lie. Just a statistic that has been manipulated by Roblox to favor R15 as much as possible without seeming totally unbelievable to lazy and unaware fact checkers. I’m sure that “poor wording choice” was intentional as well, knowing Roblox’s undying hatred towards R6.
If we’re talking about actual active roblox accounts, I’d say 70% would use R15 (mainly because of billy and stuff), and then some (30%) would just stick to the classic R6. There is probably more active players that use R15 though.
Its probably true but it doesn't mean the community likes it; Keep in mind they are also counting innactive accounts and items that force R15 to wear them properly.
For me these stats are falsified on purpose to make even more money. That's why they forcefully enabled R15 on old forgotten accounts, but it's also for telling the younger audience that "R6 is unused, all cool kids use R15". That's also what roblox would've dreamt about.
Honestly, I mostly use R15 because it kinda gives the animation and with other faces, they won’t go pixelated (only in R6) But I recommend keeping R15 and R6
As a freedom based game i think both r6 and r15 should be given a chance. People have different preference but i think r15 should be the more focused one while not disturbing the r6
The reason why the amount of users using R15 is so high is because Roblox both converted all old accounts that haven't logged in since before 2013 to automatically have R15 and the Stevie Standard head and made all default avatars have R15 since 2017.
I was one of the few to unironically use rthro a few years ago, but even then I wouldn't wear it much. A year ago, I wore it likely half the time I played in some form or another. Today, I wear it almost exclusively. Rthro is both getting better AND worse, which is the fun of it. I started playing in 2012, so I see the beauty in the blocky roblox avatars and the boy and woman bundles which are still today considered normal (I also consider them normal). I find rthro to be great for Roblox, controversial opinion I know, but I never want it to become the norm like Roblox is pushing in all its corporate ads, comprised almost exclusively of it. I hope most people continue using the normal 2016 bundles, as Roblox wouldn't be Roblox if the majority used rthro. 3d clothing and these ugc bundles are amazing features, and I expected them to help only rthro which would've been bad, but I am pleased and happy to say that it helps both rthro users such as myself AND the great blocky avatars that Roblox is known for.
I think the only reason that R15 being highly used is because it was highly forced, not only for new accounts, but also for people who utilize a lot of animation packs
I wonder why R15 is used so much. Maybe, just maybe it's because Roblox forces R15 onto players by changing their avatars forcefully, and the default Roblox avatar has R15. Just a guess tho.
Although that everybody may be freaking out about these percentages, i think its actually true. There are billions of roblox users and 2% of like 5 billion is still fairly large, so i believe roblox may actually be accurate like it or not.
the thing is 4.2 billion or more of those accounts are literally BOT ACCOUNTS OR INACTIVE ACCOUNTS, and also roblox has made more than half of those 5 billion accounts AUTOMATICALLY R15, so their statistics are complete horse shit
They manipulated the statistics to be accurate, which is disingenuous. They forced inactive accounts to use R15 and also counted all of the bots, alts, and new players using R15 (in the new players’ cases, they don’t know about R6)
I use R15 because of animations and I genuinely like how the roblox 2.0 avatar looks especially with my various animations and accessories. But no hate towards r6 players
Greenlegocats:217.000 people is actively playing roblox. Brookhaven,Blox Fruit and Pet sim x which has more than 200.000 account in every timeline (combined): hol up
Honestly, Roblox manipulating numbers isn't something that would be hard to believe, so, yeah, i don't doubt it. Edit: just got remindes of roblox forcing R15 on people, happened to me, i changed it back, didn't remember of that since. So yeah, the numbers aren't manipulated, but the corcumstances for them were.
They’re counting inactive accounts that have not been used in like 10 years, even though roblox forced R15 on those accounts If the statistics only count for accounts that are active, it’ll probably be 75% of users who use R15
why dont they check the statistic for ACTIVE users, not the billions of inactive alt accounts, inactive accounts and bot accounts that have r15 on default or were forced to have r15
Even if it was truly 98%, that statistic wouldn't be very reliable considering that the large majority of players (children) don't go through the effort of customizing their avatar with the default being r15, and probably don't even know what r6 is.
I totally think 98% of people use r15. Most of the inactive accounts were forced to be r15 + mostly everyone uses r15. I use r15 myself and with the new ugc bundles, it might stay at 98%.
It’s likely 98% due to the statistics also including bot accounts (who use r15 with the default avatar). R15 is the default avatar type rn so any spare or new accounts will have it on until they change it.
Its funny in a way, not because of the whole R6/R15 controversy but rather because if they DID actually look at the statistics they'd see how few people use Rthro for real. Wonder what some of their first reactions were..
As some from the the obby community I don’t believe 98 % litterally every obbyist uses r6 and that’s atleast a little bit and also and player from old times probally doesn’t use r15 either
my theory is that they made the ugc bundles and made some unactive accounts with dinamic face and r15 to show the percentaje so they can convince people of getting r15 avatars
Honestly I don’t think roblox is lying for a lot of reasons, first of all, there are so very many users who think they use R6 but actually just use a blocky R15 avatar. Roblox hid the option far away in the avatar menu so it’s a sensible mistake to make, but it accounts for a lot of R15 accounts nonetheless. Also, a lot of the older players who would’ve had R6 avatars were forcefully switched and never changed back, making that large group of people mostly consist of inactive R15s now. I think roblox might be rounding, and saying “users” instead of accounts is very misleading, but I don’t think they’re straight up lying.
once i was forcefully switched to r15 even though i was active, and as an active member in the obby community i scrambled to turn my avatar back to r6, and it took me 20 MINUTES TO FIND THE OPTION TO GET BACK TO R6! very outrageous
i think its a bit exaggerated but r15 is by far what the majority of roblox players use. That statistic is also getting inflated from inactive old accounts that roblox turned r15, and also the fact that new accounts are automatically r15 and many people never change it or even play roblox more than once after making an account
If we actually do the math, assuming all 4.7 billion inactive accounts are r15 and the rest are r6, that'd be 94% inactive and 6% active. Assuming 1/3 of those active users are r6 (which sounds about right to me) then we'd get 98% using r15. When you really think about it, seems more like the 30-40% range of users using r6 is way more accurate than only 2%, so if we only count active accounts, that checks out.
even if people choose r15 willingly, a lot of games, especially smaller games, will use r6, since it’s far easier to animate. additionally, the hitboxes don’t suck
r15 is good too, it provides alot of potential for smoother and more complex animating, and you can blame the hitbox problem on latency (search it up if you want to) but at the end of the day it's up to personal preference.
You can't forget that popular games usually force r15, even when it technically not required for the game to function. I prefer using R6 but switch off because my avatars look terrible when coverted in a R15 only game
Wasnt there a new some time ago like that roblox turned a lot of old r6 accs onto r15? oh and also, when that happened they turned my r6 avatar into r15, i didnt notice until i joined an r15-r6 game so i needed to change it, they even gave my beautiful avatar an ugly dynamic face
Actually I think 98% of Roblox users DO use R15, because most of those accounts are noobs, alt accounts, or accounts that were created then abandoned shortly after. It takes a while of playing ROBLOX to realize that you can switch between R6 and R15 as well.
Wow, Roblox, what a discovery! Well, perhaps 98% use R15 because it is the default avatar type and many people don't bother to change it. Take a look at the games, though. How many popular games out there use R15? Probably around 50% if not less because it simply looks weird.
I only use r15 because roblox has a literal huge bias to r15 instead of r6. Can't use layered clothing, can't use scaling, can't use billy properly, can't use dynamic heads, can't use any emotes aside from point, laugh, cheer and dance, can't use animations. List goes on and on and on.
i would say this is fairly accurate, but for the wrong reasons. for some reason, at some point in late 2022, all of my saved outfits that i had specifically set to r6 were converted to r15. i wasnt given any notice about it, and had to update them to how they were originally which was definitely a pain.
For me i think 70% os R15 The only reason they use R15 is due to the fact that most of the games dont support R6, and they dont want to use the Rthro animation pack cuz its trash so they are forced to buy animation packs and use R15
There are absurd amounts of dead accounts that all use the default R15 baconhair, so it might be the main reasoning behind why Roblox says it’s “98% of the players”, but what is the percentage of ACTIVE players? For example players who have had their account for over a year and have played in the past month.
R15 looks bad, especially on blocky avatars, there are so many visible pieces, also, why cant i make my r15 avatar the same height as a r6 one? very suspicious
Correct me if I make a mistake, but, "98% of Roblox users have R15 avatars" maybe it doesn't mean your current avatar, but your saved avatars? Even if you use R6, it is very possible that you have at least one R15 avatar saved
Do you think 98% of Roblox users use R15?

I totally think 98% of people use r15. Most of the inactive accounts were forced to be r15 + mostly everyone uses r15. I use r15 myself and with the new ugc bundles, it might stay at 98%.
It’s likely 98% due to the statistics also including bot accounts (who use r15 with the default avatar). R15 is the default avatar type rn so any spare or new accounts will have it on until they change it.
Accounts are automatically assigned r15, and a lot of games force it. Bots, inactive (and active) accounts forced into r15… etc.
We should be able to make and use R6 compatible custom bundles.
Its funny in a way, not because of the whole R6/R15 controversy but rather because if they DID actually look at the statistics they'd see how few people use Rthro for real. Wonder what some of their first reactions were..
I wish roblox would stop trying to emulate the real world
Yes
You guys have to remember r6 games for r6 and r15 games force r15 so people would most likely use r15 in the avatar editor.
Yeah, you can't be R6 in Pls Donate
As some from the the obby community I don’t believe 98 % litterally every obbyist uses r6 and that’s atleast a little bit and also and player from old times probally doesn’t use r15 either
I mean it would be true if they say "blocky avatars" against non blocky ones
Roblox omitted how many Rthro users there are, so that must mean it’s under 1%
my theory is that they made the ugc bundles and made some unactive accounts with dinamic face and r15 to show the percentaje so they can convince people of getting r15 avatars
Honestly I don’t think roblox is lying for a lot of reasons, first of all, there are so very many users who think they use R6 but actually just use a blocky R15 avatar. Roblox hid the option far away in the avatar menu so it’s a sensible mistake to make, but it accounts for a lot of R15 accounts nonetheless. Also, a lot of the older players who would’ve had R6 avatars were forcefully switched and never changed back, making that large group of people mostly consist of inactive R15s now. I think roblox might be rounding, and saying “users” instead of accounts is very misleading, but I don’t think they’re straight up lying.
once i was forcefully switched to r15 even though i was active, and as an active member in the obby community i scrambled to turn my avatar back to r6, and it took me 20 MINUTES TO FIND THE OPTION TO GET BACK TO R6! very outrageous
i think its a bit exaggerated but r15 is by far what the majority of roblox players use. That statistic is also getting inflated from inactive old accounts that roblox turned r15, and also the fact that new accounts are automatically r15 and many people never change it or even play roblox more than once after making an account
Roblox is just slowly pulling us to use Rthro by making UGC bundles
If we actually do the math, assuming all 4.7 billion inactive accounts are r15 and the rest are r6, that'd be 94% inactive and 6% active. Assuming 1/3 of those active users are r6 (which sounds about right to me) then we'd get 98% using r15.
When you really think about it, seems more like the 30-40% range of users using r6 is way more accurate than only 2%, so if we only count active accounts, that checks out.
I love R6 with R15 animations way more than just R15
even if people choose r15 willingly, a lot of games, especially smaller games, will use r6, since it’s far easier to animate. additionally, the hitboxes don’t suck
r15 is good too, it provides alot of potential for smoother and more complex animating, and you can blame the hitbox problem on latency (search it up if you want to) but at the end of the day it's up to personal preference.
@@goober23459The hit box issue is only a little bit latency. Most of the issue is crappy r15 avatars
well to be fair, rthro is much worse considering how people can use tiny parts and scale their avatar down to a microscopic level@@Generic_Handle4573
roblox is really trying to ruin all of this for us
Rocking that pure blocky body since 2013. I hate joints
I'm surprised alot of people thought roblox didn't count bots and inactive users.
You can't forget that popular games usually force r15, even when it technically not required for the game to function. I prefer using R6 but switch off because my avatars look terrible when coverted in a R15 only game
Wasnt there a new some time ago like that roblox turned a lot of old r6 accs onto r15? oh and also, when that happened they turned my r6 avatar into r15, i didnt notice until i joined an r15-r6 game so i needed to change it, they even gave my beautiful avatar an ugly dynamic face
aside from r15 being forced upon random accounts, it doesn't take brains to figure out those stats are fake
Actually I think 98% of Roblox users DO use R15, because most of those accounts are noobs, alt accounts, or accounts that were created then abandoned shortly after. It takes a while of playing ROBLOX to realize that you can switch between R6 and R15 as well.
that could also be because R15 is forced in many roblox games (the game only allows R15 models)
roblox automaticaly changes ur body type depending on which game u join but on the website it always stays the same
Wow, Roblox, what a discovery! Well, perhaps 98% use R15 because it is the default avatar type and many people don't bother to change it. Take a look at the games, though. How many popular games out there use R15? Probably around 50% if not less because it simply looks weird.
I only use r15 because roblox has a literal huge bias to r15 instead of r6.
Can't use layered clothing, can't use scaling, can't use billy properly, can't use dynamic heads, can't use any emotes aside from point, laugh, cheer and dance, can't use animations.
List goes on and on and on.
while i do believe most of the active playerbase use r15 98% is most definitely a stretch (considering the accounts which are actually active)
Roblox is currently doing a ban wave against the War community of Roblox rn
bro what?
@@mi_kii Yeah, several communities have already been dead or are rebranding as we speak
Well obviously there's gonna be a lot of kids who don't even customize their avatar and are automatically set to r15
Roblox and their Innovation and Experiences :/
As an R15 user, there never was a big ammount of R15 users in a server, maybe just me in there or at all, they CLEARLY don't take 98%
I would say that out of active accounts, like 40% use R15, 59% use R6, and the other 1% is RTHO
roblox thinking poorly made human like avatars will give the money, when they blew up at around 2015, rthro wasnt a thing and it was booming
I personally think r6 is better. (Although you can use the invisible glitch in r15)
I tend to use r15 but usually for layered clothing. That sometimes being for using r6 converters so my r6 looking avatar have a bit more movability
a fat lie, there might be 60% using r15 but theres def atleast 30% is r6
man sad how my old acc thats inactive is in r15, im raising this percent too..
i would say this is fairly accurate, but for the wrong reasons. for some reason, at some point in late 2022, all of my saved outfits that i had specifically set to r6 were converted to r15. i wasnt given any notice about it, and had to update them to how they were originally which was definitely a pain.
For me i think 70% os R15
The only reason they use R15 is due to the fact that most of the games dont support R6, and they dont want to use the Rthro animation pack cuz its trash so they are forced to buy animation packs and use R15
If this is true, it is because roblox is forcing users to use R15, but i doubt that its 98%
There are absurd amounts of dead accounts that all use the default R15 baconhair, so it might be the main reasoning behind why Roblox says it’s “98% of the players”, but what is the percentage of ACTIVE players? For example players who have had their account for over a year and have played in the past month.
R15 looks bad, especially on blocky avatars, there are so many visible pieces, also, why cant i make my r15 avatar the same height as a r6 one?
very suspicious
Correct me if I make a mistake, but, "98% of Roblox users have R15 avatars" maybe it doesn't mean your current avatar, but your saved avatars? Even if you use R6, it is very possible that you have at least one R15 avatar saved
My theory is that they are sunsetting r6, but making a clone rig for r15 avatars to imitate r6
As an R15 user, I can say that this is inaccurate, saying that there’s 98% of users having r15, disclosing the bots and non-touched accounts.
