I started out when my friend came over to my house one day. He took me straight to the ROBLOX website and told me to play it. He showed me the basics and I fell in love. I played for a few months and made a few friends. My places were all free models basically. I looked on the front page one day and saw "Train Ride Through the Fire and the Flames". I played it, liked it, saw it was popular and well.... I copied it. This was my first REAL game as I built some of it rather than inserting free models. I invited my friend and we sent random messages to people. (Yes, spam) I accumulated a full server and had so much exciment. This was new to me. Little did I know my map actually go on the Games page. I watched as it slowly rose up the ranks. And I had a very angry original creator of TRTTFATF. Well I told him how I longed for a popular game and he said it was ok. We ended up becoming friends. And this is where I took off. I set out about a month before christmas on my new game "Elemental War" the idea was that you would transform or morph into different figures each with there own powers. I finished around christmas that year. I decided to message some friends to test it out. (This was before ads) And soon once again I had a winnig game. This remained on the games page for about a week. And instead of running to open my presents christmas morning I ran to the computer and yes, it was still there. I was very proud of that place. (I got an iPod touch that year too! :D) I started to make some really good money off of my VIP shirt. I decided to enter the paintball genre and after completing mega paintball after school on one friday night I was worried. No one came. I invited people, ran ads, and watched as I had yet another hit. My games was really what kept me going, my money comming from my VIPs. Well I decided to take a break, enjoy some games. I had only played 5 or 6 games up untill then so for the longest time I played other peoples games and let me tell you I got ATTACKED by crazed players thinking I was some kind of legend. I hadnt really realized untill then how big this actually was. I looked at my place visits and realized I had around 500,000 visits. By then I had about 900,000 tickets or so. Lots of people assumed I was greedy and most still do, but in about a week my balence went from 900,000 to 1,000. I donated or gave away just about all of my money, I didnt do it to look like a good guy, or to gain more fans. I did it for me because when I got their happy reply I felt good inside. Really good. Around then me and Armitroner started up UCR well thats a different story, filled with drama, and bleh, I wont get into to it. Now that I am getting bored of roblox and moving on to other games I want to thank all of you, thanks for reading my story of how I started out, grew bigger and now how I will slowly die down.

I remember when you used to go on SFOTH IV and advertize. I even remember what you used to say. "Hey there,Billy Mays here with another annoying product!" It was something like that. Good ol' 08 days. :)
Well,bye. =) |

Along with bob, wouldnt it be a waste to leave all your cash on this rotting account?
I mean, we have all these people who soak up the spotlights and all the rest of the people are left in the shadows.
Very touching. I dont need your money, but it would be much appreciated |
