Besides seperating values in a table, semicolons are used to denote the end of a statement.

Its just used by habit because other programming languages require it. Rumor has it that roblox lua will convert every line of code to have semi colons so already adding it will apparently make the script efficient. Possibly, but the difference it makes = nil. I think they look ugly in code so I wouldn't support using them.

Semicolons have no real use in Lua. They can be used as a table separation, but they are basically ignored when used anywhere else.
