Wow. All I can say is, is seems like a total copy. Not gonna say of what. Even references to it on the Wiki..

Because roblox obviously invented the idea of building your own game.
Hint:They didn't

Yeah no.

Always assume its a copy of R.
The wiki's just kinda the same because some Buildism users come from R, and that Converting Lua from R section helps, so does many other things.
Now, go into the Editor, does that look like ROBLOX?

Look, copying items from it. Especially the person above me. [domino crown].

Yes, but it seems really obvious y'all got the idea from them.

User content is not copying.
Someone made Minecraft skins on ROBLOX -- does that mean ROBLOX copied Minecraft? No.
MediaWiki is a free wiki that MANY sites use. Some sites are only MediaWikis.
Buildism is a Java-based game. Roblox uses Ogre.
Jacob_ had quit ROBLOX for over 2 years before starting Buildism, so there's just as much inspiration from other games such as Phun.
Roblox is a corporate, 6+-year-old multi-million dollar buisness. Buildism is an indie game made by one person over about a year.
Roblox doesn't have a monopoly on block-style create-your-own-games. Minecraft, Sploder, and many more have the same style.
Roblox has no equivalent of our Terrain, Water, Ladders, or Multiple Worlds.
And before you start calling us a copy of Roblox, think about what Roblox really is. Roblox is infinitely more a copy of Lego than we are a copy of Buildism.

Also, you kind of copied minecraft with the random messages that pop up on the little bar.

Minecraft didn't invent random messages.

Bungie's website changes their banner every time you go to their homepage.
