Introduction thread for new forum members

Hey! It’s great to have been accepted into the community so far, I’m extremely excited to get involved with everyone here!

Okay so to begin!

A long time ago . . . Okay actually to cut to the chase I was recommended it by a friend in Primary school!

Well I used to make small ( arguably horrible ) games for me and my friends. By make I mean I threw a ton of Free models in, a few parts and called it a day! In terms of more serious development it’s been a friend who’s sparked my interest.

My current goals would be mostly to improve my skills.

I like to call myself a programmer :point_right: :sunglasses: :point_right:

I’m so excited to be apart of the community, I honestly cannot wait for all the awesome things and opportunities you guys have to offer me and I hope with that I can do the same.

Thank you!

Hi I’m new here

I found Roblox in June 2017 because my school friend and me were on summer holiday when my friend told me to create Roblox account. That’s how I found Roblox

I started as a developer probably month or two after I joined Roblox. My first game was CrazyCatLand which was supposed to be a game with many minigames in it.I had amazing experiences with it. I remember when I asked my friend (same friend who told me to join Roblox) to join when I put admin commands in the game. Guess what happened next. I used nuke command to him and my whole world was destroyed. I had to restart the server. Now I still develop my games but CrazyCatLand is a dead project. (:sob:) It is mostly broken due to getting no updates in many months.

I have a goal to become Roblox admin. I don’t know what position I’ll take. I’ll probably be an engineer of some sort. I have a fun memory, it was like a year ago or so. I was browsing Roblox games page and I saw the Jobs button. I clicked it and saw all possibilities to become an admin. I looked engineer jobs and I found some jobs that require like C++ and Lua skills + Roblox Studio. So I was filling the apply form when I googled for How to be Roblox admin and I found an article that said I need to be 18+ to apply. I was 12 back then so I didn’t submit the form. I just wondered how loudly I could been laughing when I would get an email from Roblox that says: Sorry bro you need to be 18+ adult to code anything for us. But still I dream to be Roblox admin. Every day feels like slower and slower because there is 5 years before I can be an admin :sob::sob::sob::sob::sob::sob::sob:

My role in developer community is Programmer

Hey guys, I’m atabrizchi. I’ve had this dev forum account since 2017 but only recently became active on it and I am really glad I have been accepted. :smiley:

Been playing Roblox for about 7+ years and really enjoy helping developers out, not much of a game developer myself but rather enjoy working on the administrative parts and helping out with that. Feel free to send me a message with any questions you have.

Welcome to the DevForums @atabrizchi! I suggest you take up building or programming, because matched with good administrative tactics, you can be really successful. If you have any questions regarding this site (or ROBLOX, though you seem pretty experienced), don’t hesitate to private message me! I have linked below a thread that gives some helpful insight on this community. If you haven’t read it yet, I’d advise doing so.

Hey! I’m HazSun and I wanted to give a little introduction about who I am. So here it goes.

I joined Roblox after I saw my brother playing it one day on his computer. I guess you could say I was apart of the old roblox crew, I really witnessed the growth of the game in it’s studio platform and everywhere else! But even with all my time on roblox, I don’t really have that many achievements! I can’t even finish a game properly Oh well! My goal though is to have my art or my game to be on the front page even if it is just for a second. On roblox I build, but I mostly do GFX and UI design. psst im also for hire
Thank you so much for reading!

Thanks @YoIobeans, I’ll be sure to look into building and programming and see if they interest me.

Hey guys, my name is Kent. I found Roblox back in 2012 after my cousin invited me to play this cool game. I joined and was immediately captivated by the many unique games. If I get bored on this one game I could hop on another one.

I started to dive into development back in 2018, a few months after I joined a role play group. My department needed a site and the group developers were busy so I took it into my own hands although I eventually gave up but that’s what got me into developing.

I met many friends who also developed in that role play group and they helped me with my projects although I never finished any of them because there wasn’t really a clear objective but it was good practice. Forever thankful to them for being some what of a “mentor” to me.

I’m a builder. I do have interest in scripting but that would be after when I feel like my skills and experience is sufficient enough.

I took a hiatus on building to focus on my career in that role play group. I eventually retired from that group and went into hiatus from roblox. I just got back to roblox two weeks ago and building a few days ago.

Welcome to the DevForums @GenPacaKent! I was introduced by my cousin, too, lol. I was also introduced to development through an RP group. I’m also a builder with a basic level knowledge of scripting. Guess our stories are similar :wink:. Jokes aside, feel free to contact me if you ever need assistance. I have linked below a useful thread. Feel free to read it if you haven’t yet!

Have a nice day!

I found Roblox via my son, never realised you could make games. I have been using Unity for years but have moved to Roblox now, there is so much it provides for you , its a no brainer really. I have been developing software for over 30years now (so im not a youngster :slight_smile:. I have been working on a MMO while learning the ins and outs of Roblox Studio and LUA. The core of the work im doing as programmer and the MMO is using Web API calls to C# MVC web application with a SQL Database back end,rather than datastores (picked that method to give Roblox a good test). Ive been at it a few months now and going great so far (in my head at least LOL). As an old programmer i love the fact that Roblox is here to get people interested in Programming/Modeling/UI as well as Games. I now recomend to all budding programmers to start here :)))))

If you need any additional help, please, direct message me and I will be glad to help!

Good luck making great contributions to the Forums!

(Also, welcome! I also started out my Roblox development career by web development, nice to see someone who came from a past development history that didn’t start from Roblox.)

Hello! I’m GlowingGecko. I found ROBLOX from a youtube ad back in 2009, and I’ve been playing ever since. I got started with development after a friend of mine wanted to start a group, and so I would help him build and create scripts. I wasn’t so good at building however, so I just stuck with scripting.

My current goals include connecting with as many developers as I can and working on many many projects! I consider myself to be an expert scripter, and an intermediate GFX artist.

I also have experience with tax law and compliance, so I have that to offer when it comes time to DevEx!

Hey there!

I am a UI designer and I love to attempt scripting admin commands. Although the odds of them working are very low xD.

I started developing as soon as I joined in 2017 but never got good until I learned from some of my friends in the recent months. I hope to someday have my own game that makes it onto the top page.

I currently work for a 2 studios but if you need UI’s designed feel free to contact me as I almost never turn down a job. (Except for anime.)

See you around on the forum,

-Cap

Hey, SevenPolygons here! I joined Roblox in February of 2010 after a close friend told me about it. I fell in love instantly, and I’m still just as in love with it today (maybe more) as I was then. Like many of you, I started “developing” pretty soon after I got onto the platform. I use the term loosely, of course. The free model-ridden games were (somewhat) mine, though, and it felt empowering. My friends and I had a lot of fun playing them.
I created and helped run a group called KlamKnights (as in “clam,” but with a “k” because “ClamKnights” wasn’t cool enough) from 2010-2015. We were a war clan, but we were featured on the blog a few times because we were always doing something cool (group personal server with a plot system, custom-made “sports” with unique gameplay, “KlamFests,” which were keynotes where we announced upcoming games/events). @Virtualdarks, and later on @MunimR handled all of the programming, and @Virtualdarks handled most of the design, though. In fact, throughout those years I did very little development.
Near the end of KlamKnights’ run, I decided that I wanted to become self-sufficient. I’ve been off and on the platform for the past few years (thanks, school), but this summer I came back, and I’m here to stay. I’ve been honing my programming and UI design skills, and I’m currently working on that first release.
