Why is that- How is that- W H A T

Ok so in that script, you’re basically parenting the player to:

leaderstats > Leaderstats Folder > ServerScriptService > game

Which doesn’t make any sense? Couldn’t you just use a PlayerAdded event instead? Try this:

local TextLabel = script.Parent.LevelGui.LevelText

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
    local level = Player:WaitForChild("LevelsInfo").Level
  
    level.Changed:Connect(function(NewValue)
        TextLabel.Text = NewValue
    end)
end)

Well it wouldn’t work since evreytime a player would join the level value would change for that player who joined

If you’re wanting to make it separate for each player, just simply do this:

local Gui = script.LevelGui

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
    Player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(Character)

        local GuiClone = Gui:Clone()
        GuiClone.Parent = Character:WaitForChild("Head")

        local level = Player:WaitForChild("LevelsInfo").Level
          
        GuiClone.TextLabel.Text = NewValue

        level.Changed:Connect(function(NewValue)
            GuiClone.TextLabel.Text = NewValue
        end

    end)
end)

Whaaaaaa-???

I don’t even know where to begin. Do something like this:

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
   player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
      -- clone the level gui and parent it to their head.
      -- levelGuiThing.Parent = char.Head
   end)
end)
