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

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?

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.
