Official releaseĪccording to a blog post in September 2014, the player points feature made the games overly competitive around player points, which was undesirable for Roblox. Player points given to game developers were also multiplied by a hundred. In that same month, the Top Points sort on the Games page was added, which sorted games with the most points awarded.

Player points were intended to be a reward for players that were making progress and completing tasks on games. A member in a clan could earn and accumulate player points while contributing to their clan's points.
