hiring developers is kinda a gamble
if you build connections and have friends that dev, its much easier to hire them instead
if you do decide to hire in hidden devs or rodevs then you need to be very careful and cautious
have they worked for someone else before?
can anyone vouch for them?
do they have a watermarked portfolio?

I can’t tell if the person who wrote it was under the influence and was blinking in and out of sobriety or what, but some of it is good and some of it is just esoteric at best.

I think he was lying about that or was telling the truth and decided not to try at all.

he was definitely lying, this code is pretty ass
dont let this discourage you though, if you want to learn to code better just surround yourself with developers and pick up good coding practices

The code could be worse. Tho, haven’t seen it all so idk how the rest looks.

pretty sure your account gets one rollback. you can contact support about it, and they should be able to refund you.

5 years? nah if you try hard u can be more advanced in 4 years (me), if u remove breaks and for some reason practice 24/7, half or 1 year i guess

i actually check if it is a player to get correct type checking. But now I learnt
Players:GetPlayers(): {Player}
Old way of me doing
for _, Player in Players:GetChildren() do
if Player:IsA('Player') then
-- Code goes here
else
warn('Why is smth random parented to Players 💀')
end
end
i don’t do the else thing
New way (+2 Lines)
for _, Player in Players:GetPlayers() do
-- Code here
end

I like how this went from giving sympathy and help to a victim of scamming to bullying the scammer in every way imaginable.

My main issue is why is he using usernames
, its a matter of choice but honestly UserIds, are the way to go. From my experience people change their usernames and at the most inconvient of times

Same, because how do you have 5 years of experience and still use
if whatever == true then
instead of if whatever then
