Introduction thread for new forum members

Hey all, I guess you can just look at my username, but everyone I know just calls me Gopher.
I found ROBLOX through a (now really old) YouTube video back in 2008 and just kinda started playing and really got into it. For the most part I didn’t bother with building anything too seriously, I was just playing games and chatting it up on the old forums. I eventually started to build maps just for my own entertainment sometime in late 2013, and I would occasionally help old friends with building if they needed it. I kind of stopped playing and visiting the site regularly in 2015~2017, but I’m back now.
Recently, within the last year or so, one of my friends has gotten me back into building, so here I am. I’ve seen some of the stuff people create on here and it really amazes me, it almost feels like an entirely different game now. I’m definitely looking forward to getting help from all the talented individuals out there!

Hi guys! I just wanted to introduce myself and that is an honored to be accepted into the devforums! :slight_smile:

I’m chenami! I’ve been playing ROBLOX since the elementary days but I’ve mainly spent my time in the clanning section of ROBLOX. I’ve always been interested in building, scripting, and all aspects of Roblox Studio so I gave it a try recently. I spend my time learning how to be a better builder, making UIs, watching shows, playing Wizard101, and trading! I’m always socializing so feel free to send me a message if you need anything!

Hello, I’m CasualMilton. I am very pleased to be accepted into the community and I’ve been trying to get in for weeks! I

I have been playing ROBLOX since 2009 but it was tough when it came to 2012 when ‘We-Know-Who’ hacked ROBLOX. Miraculously, came back in 2015 and started exploring new features that roblox has made and then that time I really got interested to see what I can do in the Roblox Studio so then I started to think my journey through and see if I should become a builder, scripter, programmer or modelist. I spent most my time trading, playing games, getting the idea until when the time comes for me to develop my own games, I have all the ideas and plans I want! If you got any questions or things to tell me, be free to send me a message.

Very nice! Keep up the good work.

Hello, I am Random_User54 and I am honored to become part of the developer forum!

I first found out about Roblox from word of mouth, internet memes, etc.

I got started with development about 6 months ago when I thought it would be cool to make a game rather than just play them.

My current goal is to become adept in Lua scripting.

As you can tell from the message above, I’d say my role is a programmer.

My best game: Solo Swordsman - Roblox
Happy developing everyone!

Hi there, I’m dustmouse12!

I first came across Roblox in 2011 while I was surfing the web. I was so fascinated to see what people made and I’ve been amazed to know what creativity. That’s when until 2014, when I started learning how to script. Since then, I’ve taught myself Lua and became a novice programmer. I’m pretty good at building stuff as well. Prior to my acceptance, I’ve been using the dev forums to get some scripting help and techniques I really hope I create something that many people would enjoy.

Here’s a game that I’ve been doing experiments with my script and building:

Ehh…, I’m a bit shy when it comes to introducing myself :blush: but it’s an honor to be accepted into this community and I hope I can speak with other developers and further extend my skills and make new friends along my journey. :wave:

hey, i’m rgames.
I found roblox with those annoying ads on youtube.
I used to have a account known as buildingrhys123 in which I made trash games, then priced them for 100 robux. :face_vomiting:
Currently, My achivement is a game (which I now have discontinued) getting over 3000k plays.
I’m mainly a moderate scripter, and a bit of a builder.
I also work for both Innovation Inc and Pinewood Builders (dont sue me pls lol)
well, cha.

Hey, I’m JoinMyWorld (please ignore that my username is self promotion, I made the account 6 years ago)

  1. I found Roblox through a group of my friends, they kept talking about it having a ton of fun games, so I tried it out.

  2. It started with 2 things, the stamper tool and free models, I created nearly 200 poorly made games before I even attempted something good, where I then found that I actually liked scripting more than building.

  3. My goals are to reach 100k visits and to create a large scale Open-World single player story based game. My achievements are that my bad games somehow reached 1k visits, that might not sound like an achievement but with how awful those games are you’d be shocked if there was even 1.

  4. Programmer, I do a bit of building but I have a friend with experience in modeling to deal with most of my building nowadays.

  5. I don’t have a big main game that showcases my skills, I’m currently just creating small games on the side to refine my skills before I create a large game. My games right now are currently for fun.

I can’t wait to be able to talk with all of you guys on the forum and join this great community that I’ve been watching from the sidelines cheering you all on for a while.

See ya

  • My brother once told me about it, we used to rp irl. He would play ro-planes and I would pretend I was sitting on his wing and wanting to make jam xD. Later I started to play it myself.
  • I used to play around with the easy mechanics and build the ugliest houses ever. The last 2 years I tried to do some stuff with programming but I kept just not understanding. It is quite recently though, that I somehow started scripting out of nowhere. I finally understand the logic of it now.
  • Make a game that gets around 200 players on average and make youtube videos about the progress.
  • Programmer
  • I mostly sell assets and can translate from english to dutch and the other way around.

Hello, I am here for helping others and when I am in need for help.
I am a scripter in learning and I enjoy ROBLOX very much. I find it a opportunity to use our imagination and share the inspiration with others.

Hello, I just want to say that I am very excited to join this community. I found Roblox through a friend, and I started with development on the Roblox platform when I realized that I could make games that people could play. My goal in this platform is to learn more about building and coding on the platform and simply get to know this community. As of now, I am not sure what my role is yet because I am still learning, but I hope to become a coder. I am just overall really happy to join this community. :smiley:

Hello! I’m landonis and I’ve been on the platform off and on for about 10-11 years now. I pretty much solely use for developing but occasionally I’ll check out a game to see what people are making.
Pretty much all my developing has been working on game ideas for a bit then coming up with another and starting that so I would say I’m pretty casual on that side. I love to program and make games and I feel I’m capable to make pretty much whatever I set my mind to. I hope by the end of the year I can finish something and show that it is true.
Learning and helping others have fun program is my primary goal and I’m excited to meet and work with the people on this form .

Hi, My I’m Balvamar. I got introduced to Roblox by my son who was about 8 at the time. I began by playing games with him, then discovered Studio and got hooked. I have always been a lifelong learner and a teacher for over 20 years, and have studied many programming languages through out the years.
After playing around in Studio for awhile and familiarizing my self with the concepts I wrote an online course for beginners that is currently available on Udemy, and a best seller.

After publishing my course on the basics, I have spent the last 4 months developing my game Space Spectrum, and released it about 2 weeks ago.

My current goal is to continue to improve and maintain my game, and write another online course that consolidates the new skills I have learnt from writing my game.

My main skill is coding, however I am also a piano player, music composer, and song writer.

I am happy to be accepted as a New Member on the forum and look forward to contributing, and getting the assistance of all the great developers that are posting here already. Look forward to seeing you on the forums. Cheers

  1. I found Roblox years ago through my searching. I looked for online games and found Roblox, it was awesome to find it and it is so fun to play!
  2. I started developing with free models and terrain. I slowly advanced and started trying it out myself. I learned a lot of my scripting from tutorials, DevHub API and The Roblox Devforum.
  3. I want to become a top member who can always assist users in any trouble they have.
  4. I am a UI Designer, Programmer and Side builder. I used to be a full time builder but I broke my laptop and lost most of my techniques.
  5. I hope to see you all around!

Hi, I’m Yosharu. I joined Roblox in 2013 after a friend recommended it to me. I started developing seriously a year or so ago, just messing around in studio. My goal here is to learn some new things and ask questions I have. I don’t really specialize in any area, but I enjoy making models and showcases.

Hello I’m new to the forum! I have been developing Roblox games and stuff related for at least a year or two now. I hadn’t really gotten around to joining the forum until now.

I mostly script but I try with graphics. I cant build if my life depended on it. I once tried to make a gas station for a city game I dreamt up. Long story short, it didn’t look so hot.

My only claim to fame on Roblox is a really trashy game I made as a joke called “Respect Simulator”.
(https://www.roblox.com/games/2538834086/Respect-Simulator)
I advertised it a few times and it accrued me about 14.5k visits and about 151 friend requests which I refuse to accept or deny. What can I say… Its an ego booster :wink:.

My current goal is to make a really high-quality game (or better than what I used to make) and it beat my last “big” success. I’m going for 14.51k visits next time!

Anyways, Thanks for having me!
