Introduction thread for new forum members

I found ROBLOX a long time ago on my first few accounts back in 2013, I believe I found it through one of my close friends at the time and we constantly played it.
I don’t really develop, I’ve played with Blender a few times, but nothing serious. I mostly translate English and German since my family is majority German and I learned from relatives.
My goals are starting my own group and being able to give money to charity and being able to succeed in a living for myself.
I am a translator.
That’s about it. : )

Hi devs,
I’m Matt and I’m a builder, game designer, GFX artist and a game translator.
I started playing Roblox about a year and a half ago when my friend @fabrice1236 showed me the game.
I was playing for a while, then I realized that I could create my own games!
So, about a year ago, I founded Fmgroup studios with my friend @fabrice1236.
We started out with an obby which got 1000 visits so far, not bad for our first game.
Our next game was a story that we released a month ago.
I hope the forum will help me a lot now that I’m accepted !

Have a nice day,
Matt

Hi, I am Sufganiyot, and I have been trying to get in since November 2020.
I found out about Roblox from one of my best friends who told me about it back in 2015.

I got started with development on the Roblox platform after playing a few cool games and thinking, “Hey! I want to make something like that!”

My current goals are to get the Bricksmith badge a finish a fully functional minigames place with a shop you can spend points on.

My role in the dev community is Builder/Programmer.

I hope I can be a great addition to the DevForum!

Hello there, I am a new member of the devforum and I am very excited to be part of this.

Introduction okay…
I am ForgottenTravels. I joined Roblox in 2016 when I got introduced to it by my friend. In 2018, I learned about something called “Roblox Studio”. I was first not interested in building until I played “Build a Boat for Treasure”. Since there are limited blocks in that game, I decided to go on Roblox Studio and start building games myself. My current goal right now is to learn how to script and use Blender to create advanced objects. I am a builder and I mostly build for friends or just for my enjoyment.

That is it for my introduction and I would like to thank you so much for accepting me to this forum.

  1. I actually don’t remember, but I remember begging my parents to let me create an account.
  2. I obsessed with beautiful games and really thought I could make stuff like that, but always used free models, now I’ve moved onto scripting and I’m starting to learn as much as I can!
  3. Just improve my skills.
  4. I do game design and scripting, but don’t really specialize in anything yet.

Hello! I found Roblox way back many years ago when I found it in the app store. Me noticing the potentials of what could come from Roblox; I started playing Roblox as a guest (which was still available back then), and not so long after I created a new account and I enjoyed the game greatly.

I started with development 2-3 years after my account was created, and I got started off with using free models in the toolbox and making variants of it, and slowly, started making my very own models.

My current goal is to be a great developer, and reach great heights when it comes to programming in Roblox LUA!

My role in the developer community is as a Developer.

I am starting to do very well in scripting, and I especially like helping others when it comes to a variety of cases in scripting. I am very glad to be part of the Developer Forums!

I always thought developing was interesting and I thought it would be so cool to make a game and have other people playing it.

3. Current goals/achievements on the platform

After I learn scripting, I want to create a successful Roblox game.

4. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)

I found ROBLOX when my favorite YouTuber uploaded her latest video at that time, she was playing Ro-Citizen, which became my first favorite game in ROBLOX. As “Work at a Pizza place” was my first ROBLOX game I’ve joined. My ROBLOX friend Elizabeth, invite me in her game to create a small town with a pizza place, playground, etc. With the plugin tool “F3x” after making such wonderful memories, I still thank her for introducing the plugin to create houses from just a block, ball, etc.

It’s been almost 3 years since making myself focus on building, I’ve created quite a lot of things that I can’t remember or list on. But as I can say, I’ve built 5-6 airports, a small cafe, minigame maps, models (more like low poly), and small things for my friends. Being a Builder/Modeler, we intend to create things out of this world, that we can imagine beyond things we never expect to do. If you think that isn’t possible to create something from the physical world, how about on ROBLOX? The power we hold as builders to create what our imagination feels like us, yet we can still feel unmotivated, lazy, etc. But there’s still talent that you can still show to the ROBLOX community by just sitting in front of our screens, planning things that may enjoy us and other people of different ages.

I hope I can still keep on learning in the next 5 years, and dear, future Elisha. keep going girl. And thank you. c:

Hello Developers,

You may have recently seen me here or there around the community. I will go ahead and explain who I am, and what I do.

  • How did you find Roblox?
    I found Roblox in mid 2015 and played as a guest, I then created an account in April of 2016, I soon forgot the password to my account (And it had no verified email so I was kinda S.O.L.) which, I hope Roblox could get it back for me some day. So I made a second one in October 2016 which is the one that I use to this day!
  • How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
    In January and February of 2017 I started experimenting with Roblox Studio. I suddenly fell in love with making scripts, and User Interfaces. Now, I know over 7 programming languages and can fluently write in 5.
  • Current goals/achievements on the platform
    I would like to be part of a large Roblox game some day, even a medium would be nice. However, my main goal is to help others in making great games and scripts (You’ll notice that I spend a lot of time in the #help-and-feedback:scripting-support category reply to posts.)

Hey everyone! I just joined the forums and I’m very excited to be able to meet any of you I happen to run into through the forums!

1. How did you find Roblox?
I first discovered Roblox in 2017. I was at my friends house and we played some different Roblox games (none of which I can remember). After that, I pretty much forgot about the platform until late 2018 when I noticed my cousin was playing it. Shortly after, I made an account and played some different games. I never had an account prior to this one and I only started to play Roblox consistently in late 2019.

2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
Well, around mid-2020 I was playing a LOT of Roblox and I starting thinking “What if I made my own game?” I thought about it for a week before completely giving up on it. I never thought I would learn how to code. December 2020 I started to get back into the mindset that I wanted to make a game. Ever since, I’ve been experimenting in Roblox studio. I am not a great programmer but I keep practicing and hopefully I’ll get better as time goes on.

3. Current goals/achievements on the platform
My goal for 2021 is to create a game that at least get’s 1,000 visits. My overall goal is to get a game on the frontpage, no matter how long it takes.

4. What is your role in the developer community?
I am a programmer but I also build and design UI often.

5. Anything else you would like to include
I am currently learning Python, Lua, C++, JavaScript, and HTML. It’s quite a lot to handle at once but it’s a lot of fun. Later on, I hope to learn C# and some other languages.
I love to 3D model, edit videos, read, write, and code.

How did you find Roblox?

I joined Roblox around 2010. By the Roblox ad “Online Social Hangout - ROBLOX”, “Welcome to ROBLOX” and “Build Your own Game” I thought it was so cool back then. So I joined. My original username was Buzz308. But I changed it Obviously to my current.

How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?

I started to Dev When I was probably after 5 years being on Roblox. I first began with making stuff in Roblox Studio like Medieval to futuristic military stuff. Please clean messing around.

2 years later I began to start making uniforms/Outfits for fun. Making stuff for groups I join and enjoyed. And now I’m here/

Current goals/achievements on the platform

My goal is probably to improve on my current skillset

What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder, etc)

Probably just a designer. Because I enjoy making outfits more than build in the stuff in Roblox.

This is the end. See you guys later!

  1. How did you find Roblox?

So I stumbled across Roblox probably late 2019 as I was bored on a day off from work. Very quickly I found that I was very much at home. I loved how the games were user creations, and how people of all ages had taken a set of tools and come up with something that kept people entertained and coming back for more.

  1. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?

Not long after starting in Roblox, I started playing around with Studio and seeing what it was capable of. Having done game design and development at university, I was used to using engines like Unreal and Unity, but something about Studio just felt…simpler. I have been learning my way around over the last year, and decided to take the next step and start developing on Roblox.

  1. Current goals/achievements on the platform

My main goal is to make this work as a job. I have had a lot happen in my life, and now I am wanting to settle a bit and work on something that I actually have a passion for, not just something that pays the bills.

Secondary to my main goal though, I want to continue to improve my skill set. I want to branch out and learn as much as I can. I want to deliver high quality content to the community. Most importantly, I want to have some fun doing all of this! :smiley:

  1. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)

I would guess that the main role would be game designer, but I also program, go GFX and UI, and some 3D modelling (This links in with 3D printing, although that is not something in Roblox)

  1. Anything else you would like to include

It is always a little daunting for me to write things like this. I am autistic, so struggle with social interaction. Roblox has given me a way to improve that in an environment that I feel safe in. When it comes to talking about Roblox, programming, or gaming, feel free to drop me a message!

Hello, my name is Ghost8058, and i would like to introduce myself.
1) I found ROBLOX through, i think a friend of mine, when i was 9/10 years old.
2) I got started with roblox developing, after playing tons of games on the platform, which soon became boring, and i wanted to make my own.
At first i began experimenting with free models, until a year or two years ago, which is when i began to learn to script and build, and i am still learning to script, build, create gfx arts.

3) Currently i am creating some simple games, without/sometimes with limited amounts of free models.

4) My role in the community is mainly: programmer(lua)

5) As well as scripting, i can build, create gfx arts, and i would like to do roblox developing as a job in the future or work in ROBLOX, as a staff.
