Introduction thread for new forum members

My name is Coyotae, I have been wanting to get into the DevForum so I can be truly interactive with other developers and make exciting relationships!

How I found Roblox: I found ROBLOX out of pure curiosity, back in 2015. The account was “Nickname109” as I didn’t expect myself to do much on this platform.

How I got started into development: It’s a funny story, really, I got into Z_Nac’s development squad, which if you didn’t know is a Roblox content creator! I watched his buddies build and then I picked up on it fairly quickly. I am a self-teacher, if you insist.

Goals/achievements on the platform: In mid-2018, I owned a group called The New German Empire 1959. I gave it away at 15,000 members when it was officially the biggest German group on ROBLOX! I am working on way up on my current project now.

My role in the developer community: I am a builder and programmer. I test my work and explore my creativity in my Building playground. It’s pretty neat.

Thanks for reading, as always, stay safe and game on!!

I am new here and I am so happy to be here! :smiley:

So, my name is iiviivxx and I did not just slam my hand on the keyboard when I chose this username.
I found ROBLOX from a friend suggesting it in late 2017 and early 2018 on a different account this account was made in 2019.
it doesn’t seem like that long ago, but I’ve come to learn a lot about ROBLOX in those years.
I got started with ROBLOX development by wondering to myself “How do all these games come to be on ROBLOX?” that brought me to studio. My goals are to be better at scripting, as of right now I am bad at scripting. I also hope to get better at building though not as much because I am already decent at building. My role in the community is New Member, as I just got accepted in. I can’t wait to see what work I can do here to help out and what advice I can get here from some fellow developers!

Hello, I’m PostA_Note

People say that I’m creative (even though im not), and somebody recommended me to this website called ‘Roblox’. And boom, I got in instantly.

I want to probably just teach people and make a game get to the front page in my Roblox ‘journey’.

I would say that I’m a pretty good programmer learning on my way of coding and creativity.

That’s all from me.

I found ROBLOX when I was a young kid, by clicking on an ad. I was curious, and after I played my first game… I loved the experience.

I started development when… I was first introduced to the studio, I made maps filled with free-models so all my friends could hang-out & have fun together. Many, of my friends, did not play ROBLOX… until I have invited them. I loved making games and the idea of being a real developer. I decided to start learning to code, so I can create better experiences for me and my friends… and create actual games! After, getting the hang of the basics… I went onto more advanced things, and slowly realized I knew how to program. I also built various things, to master my skills in multiple places in development.

Current Goals:

  1. Make a game with 500K+ visits (in progress)
  2. Make a successful group with over 20K members (in progress)
    Achievements:
  3. Was hired multiple times, with various different roles.
  4. Managed popular games/groups
  5. Learned most of Lua

My role in the community is, programming, building, and UI designing entrepreneur… that works to advance in his skills. I would like to contribute to ROBLOX as much as I can, as it is my favorite game… and I have had numerous good memories here.

Hello, I’m UnitArua!

How I found Roblox:

The time when I discovered Roblox was back in 2016. I heard most people talked about Roblox, so I asked a best friend of mine saying, “What is Roblox?”. Then my best friend said, “You don’t know what Roblox is? Roblox is a very popular game!”. So I decided to check Roblox out on the web, but I started to play Roblox in September 2017 (I think. I don’t remember the month, but I do remember the year). I played Roblox as a guest in 2017, and I loved Roblox ever since!

How I started to create games on Roblox:

I wanted to learn how to create games on Roblox, like what everyone else did. I opened Roblox Studio up and saw some ordinary baseplate. I was like, “OK? How do I insert stuff in?”. Then I saw a thing called “Toolbox”. I selected different types of models there, and inserted them into my game. After that, I created A BUNCH of games (though most of my games are set on Private). In April 2019, I created a game called Avengers Tycoon, and it really blew up! It now has 45K+ (and more) place visits on it. I was really happy!

My favorite things to do:

I like to make vector art, as in making game logos and making game logo re-makes from other popular games on the Roblox platform. I like making re-make game logos for fun, and creating game logos that don’t have logos.

I love Roblox so much and can’t stop playing! I really enjoy creating games and doing vector art for fun on/for the Roblox community! I also am really enjoying the Roblox DevForums a lot!

glad to be here :wink:

1: found Roblox from a friend, was one of those 2012 geusts and got an account in the beginning of 2015

2: almost immediately I had an intrest in the studio and messed around with the toolbox. ive alwase been interested in computer science and over time have built up knowledge or some stuff. Recently I began (from what started being miners haven submissions) to attempt to create a full on fps game. so i am now an active member.

3: my current goal is to be an ace of all cards, as in, to be able to be proficient at everything in at least the lowest level.

4: right now i have a basic understanding of Roblox physics constraints, some but limited lua (mostly basic things necessary to get a decent game running), and a fair amount of building experience.
i would say, that the only thing truly have any capable competency at the moment are things related to the building category.

5: i understand that many of the old devs dont like this flood of new people on the dev forums after the change, but i come here to contribute as much as to learn. :slight_smile:

How did you find Roblox?
I think a friend convinced me to play it with them or I just found it on my own since I am known for trying out many game platforms as possible lol.

How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
I have always loved whenever games or online spaces allow me to create my own stuff, so last year when I came back to Roblox and realized I could build whatever I wanted with a bit of effort, it was hard to resist! I also like seeing what people build and their process :smile:

Current goals/achievements on the platform
Goals:

  • Publish one of the places I am currently working on!
  • Get to work with someone else in a joint project.
  • Hopefully, learn Lua :sweat_smile: In general learn to use all the resources given to me in Studio to make the most out of it.

What is your role in the developer community?
I like to build, but I am also very much inclined to the graphical/artistic aspect of it. I am used to editing game screenshots and texture modding.

More than anything I am very excited to share what I do and keep learning!!

I found Roblox by watching Aspiring_Cald play Ultimate Driving. I started with development after join a group called Pinewood Builders and that really inspired me. I hope that now I am this good at development I will be able to make a decent game. I am a programmer in the developer community, I have been told by many people that I am an amazing scripter.

Hiya, I’m Abrarred.

Im glad that I got accepted into here! I design clothing for my group and sometimes custom clothing. I also have been doing GFX art since 2016.

Hello! My Name is ffancyaxax12. Thanks for Promoting me to New Member :slightly_smiling_face:

I have been playing Roblox as a kid for quite some time. I Have enjoyed the many diverse cultures and experiences Roblox has to offer. Now its time for me to give back to the community by creating new exciting games. I’m mostly a builder, but I also enjoy learning Lua. Thanks to the wonderful Development community and Roblox YT, I have gone from absolutely no idea on how to code, to being able to help others solve problems. I hope that I can contiue along this path and be a Great Creator myself. :smile:

Hey!

I’m Zealocity, generally new to the DevForum and to developing. My main thing is 3D Modelling and Graphic Design. I’ve been modelling for about 2 years now and want to broaden my field. Very passionate about cars and everything related to cars, that’s how I actually started with 3D Modelling, what started as a hobby turned into a profession I want to get into! On a side note, been an active member of the ROBLOX community ever since 2009!

Hello, my name is ProxySystems and thank you for letting me be a part of this awesome developer community!

In the last couple of years, I have been active on the ROBLOX platform as a developer. I first found ROBLOX in 2015 when a friend of mine asked me if I wanted to play a game with him on this platform. I have been active, less active but returned and now I have been contributing, helping and learning more than I ever did or thought that I would do.

I first got started with development on the ROBLOX platform for about 2 years ago. How I got started is a little unclear to me, but I knew that I was entering a community I will remember, and have a lot of memories from.

My current goals are not to just become better, but to assist other members in this community to help them to become better. My other goal (which could be the most important one) is not just to have unforgettable memories from this community, but to be able to leave this community and know that I did a good job and that the community will remember me as a good contributor and a good person who did good things to the community.

My main role in the developer community is scripter. I have mostly spent my time scripting and I love to do so. My secondary role would be a UI designer or builder. I haven’t focused as much on those, but I do plan to do so really soon.

I am excited to be a part of the DevForum and I am excited to get to know y’all.
See you around!

Hello World! My name is clustergrowling, and I’m glad to be a new member of the Developer forum.

I found ROBLOX in 2018 through my little brother, who is an avid player of Front-Page games. I’ve been doing basic HTML programming during my Middle School days. I soon found out about Studios and the programming aspect to it, and I’ve wanted to improve ever since. What really pushed me to start learning was boatbomber’s “Lua Learning” place, as its community tutorials really expanded my knowledge.

My main goal for the future is to develop a custom chat with a pinging system in it, this project is on hold though as i am focusing on School right now. For now, i want to focus on scripting before i get into building or GUI Design.

I am happy to be a new member of the Roblox Developer Community and i am ready to work with you in the future.

See you soon!

Hey there, the name’s Zintenka (Zin-10-Kuh or Kah) or Zin if my name’s a mouthful. Found Roblox back in 2014 and started playing since. I got interested in development back in 2018 and have made various art assets for people.

I hope to one day help produce supremely ambitious Roblox games that push the boundaries of what this engine can do while remaining optimized. A team that wants to push to become better and better while giving a little of their talent to the rest of the members so that we can all come out of it not just with success but each with incredible skillsets.

I’m a guy who deals in all things visual. Logos? 3D Models? 2D illustrations? You’d go to me for it. I’ve been doing 2D illustration for my whole life and started digital in 2013. I’ve only just started 3D in January 2019 and I must say that I’ve improved a lot in it - probably because I had a prior experience with visual-related stuff.

TeaFive here, was anxiously waiting for the visitor to turn over, now I’m waiting more so for the new-member to turn over, haha. I’m a new builder, working with an amazing developer/scripter/builder/animator (MXKhronos) as I slowly and continually learn the ins and outs of world building.

Hey, I am Jie and I have been on Roblox for around 4-5 years now, (I have used more than one account, ‘Jieay20’ is my current one).
I am quite new to the development side of the platform and I am learning how to build/script
I like to view myself as a builder as that is what I am most interested in and I am going to strive to become well known in the community as a builder.

If you want to speak to me you can message my disc Jie#1656 or add me and send me a message on Roblox, hope to see you around.

  1. How did you find Roblox? In March 2010 I saw an ad that said “build anything” and I was sold. Little did child-me know it would not be all that simple.

  2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform? I’d been trying things on and off since the beginning, but was first invited to a full project in mid-2018, which was the first time I really saw another dev’s process for creating a game from the inside (as lacking as it was).

  3. Current goals/achievements on the platform Current goal is commitment to the project I’m a part of and hopefully seeing it to completion.

  4. What is your role in the developer community? Game Designer

  5. Anything else you would like to include The majority of my game design work has, up until now, taken place off of the platform. I spent some time at a local studio initially to learn, and I’ve since gone on to design some tabletop games, and currently head up an open game design workshop. I do a lot of work on design theory in my spare time (i.e. what are the rules that govern whether a game is fun) and Roblox makes for a good proving ground for a principle’s validity.

Hello! I am a new addition to the Developer Forum and I just wanted to say it’s an honor being invited here among such amazing developers here!

My name is LargeMakesStuff. I have been a member of ROBLOX for almost 8 years. I originally found my way on here after ROBLOX was installed on my old all-in-one PC and left to sit there for a year due to me thinking that it was some control panel for my computer. A year later I decided to open it out of curiosity and found my way into ROBLOX, under the username Largeminecraft123.

I’ve been trying to build on ROBLOX ever since 2012 starting with Free Models, but i’ve gotten the hang of it over the years and I want to continue building for a couple more years.

Currently I am a beginner in LUA, Animating, and Blender Modeling, but my specialty is building in Studio.

I hope to learn from many of you and I hope to maybe meet some new friends along the way. Thanks for reading!
