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

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 :sob: , 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

Furthermore, why is he checking if the player is a descendant of players lol.

Yeah, why would that be an issue? because if it wasnt the player should be kicked lol.

I think he just grab the stuff from the ProfileService example which does that…

I’ve honestly never used profile service but why would you think they do that?

Just to check if a player is a descendant of players which means if the player is in the Players service.

From my experience if the player is moved from the playersservice or removed they get kicked from the game, plus they only way they would be moved is using serversided code. Super Weird

The player variable comes from the parameters of the playerAdded event, which is a descendant of players upon the event occurring.

This line is from the official ProfileService example code Save your player data with ProfileService! (DataStore Module)
