Ah, it's been so long since it all began. I remember I wasn't ever into computers. They bored me. At school computer labs, I would always get into Publisher and just doodle.

Finally, the next year, I discovered an outstanding sand game. It was an enjoyable game.

Then the end of the school year came. I wasn't very excited. School was the only entertaining part of my life back then. Week after week, I just watched TV, went out and rode my bike, etc. There was no entertainment.

Finally, the time came where I thought about going online and playing the Sand Game once again. I saw an ad at the bottom right.
Just one basic, plain text ad, like the old days...

The ad read: "Create Your Own World"

So what happened then? I got interested and clicked it. I signed up for an account, and went directly to my happy home.

Of course, I deleted and mass copied. What newbie doesn't? They are rare.

Along the way, I made a variety of new friends. I can list some below.

Apple202, Bannana99, Piplup312, Roxas(???), Clone215, and many, many more. The reason Roxas has (???) in his name is because it has been so long, I forgot the entire name.

All of these friends have left me as of 2010, except for Piplup, who is no longer a friend.

In Feb. 2009, I became interested in Roblox's Lua. Quickly after getting it down, I moved to the real web. The following is the complete order in which I learned the web languages I know today.

HTML, JavaScript, CSS, PHP, Ajax, XML, MySQL, and many, many more.

I began making games on ROBLOX then. My first famous game was a fail obby, which you can find on Bannana97's profile as "My First Obby," followed by the date I made it.

What came next? The first version ever of Build a Noob Trap. It ended up failing as well. It took a good dive onto the front page, and froze itself up in the top two for a good few weeks.

Then I attempted to make Build to Survive a UFO, an original game that used to be fun. I invited 4 of my friends to the game. All showed up, and I was there too. That was 5 people. Ten minutes later, random players began to enter the game at a very fast rate. In only 15 minutes, I was #1 on the front page. For two weeks straight, I was #1. Releasing updates constantly to keep my place, it began to fall back finally.
After four weeks, I was off the front page. I was proud.

-- ROBLOX released BC-Only games right here --

Later, I got interested in building ROBLOXia stores. I formed Build a Store & Earn Money, one of the first 10 decent versions. This time, I ran ads. It was on the front page in no time, as well as BC games.

After this, I decided to create an alternative account... the name would be HolyBanana. I thought of creating a new ROBLOX game or feature that would become popular and use up my free time.

I created RoWindows -- ROBLOX's first working personal Gui computer. Why first? It was started the day ROBLOX released their Gui system, and released a few months later. Yes, it was crappy, because it was a first.

Before releasal, I handed the computer to another developer (who will not be named) who'd check for bugs/glitches and fix them. What he did instead was place random commented-out lines of fake code in every script, trying to make it seem "cool." Well, guess who was blamed for that one? ^_^

Then I created Roblox Universe, the second, but I thought it was the first. I guess it was also a "ripoff" of some inefficient universe game, as mine was generated by scripts and had over 150,000 planets, as I created 5000 new planets a day with the script, and began the game with 100,000. It included many features...

Black holes, suns, rotation, orbiting, gravity, atmosphere, etc.

And now... I am closing the story with nothing but my happy home, a memory in which I will never, ever forget... a happy home, in which when I noticed ROBLOX took it off of the default games list, I became upset about.

ROBLOX is ruined, and I am leaving. Yes, the terrain and all these new features are amazing... but this isn't what ROBLOX should be.

Rest in Peace, HolyBannana. A great man, and noticed, by many ROBLOXians, for his brilliance.

I hope, ROW continues to be a success, with its new owners, Fordfocus, Rmbroblox, and others.

You need to be respected with thousands of posts and very old to have a legitimate 'story of my life' post. You don't fit into category one or two, plus some may still consider you new.

Never heard of you.

But that many planets will either lag like hell, or be procedurally generated.

There is no such thing as Life, there is only AFK.

I was one of his freinds...
Never thaut he would quit...
I kept gaving him some scripts for his new places...
But he never forgot to finish his last project that he wasent telling anyone about.. It was going to be an advanced version of ro windows. your stuff could save. people could make there own websites/programs/downloads ect. for ro windows... He even said there was going to be relistic games on it and that other people could make relistic games on it...

But i guess now since are great hero left... Roblox/users might never find out how to do it... how he was going to do it :(. We should all be proud of this hero for making us these things...

I hope some day... we will finish are heros uncompleted project.......

@The reply below mine. If you actually read it, HolyBannana wasn't his first account. He only made that account, when he became really good at GUI Computers. He joined in 2008 on Bannana92.

Btw, it doesn't matter about how many forum posts you have. Its about how famous you are on ROBLOX, and HB was very famous.

I only have 270 posts, but hey, I've got 75 THOUSAND Profile Views, my friends, and the people who like me, would respect me, if I were to leave ROBLOX.

On top of that, all the people that are in the largest car company of ROBLOX, CF Motors. Which I own.
