Hello reader, congratulations on reading the beginners guide to ROBLOX forums. In this short message we shall cover the many different things on ROBLOX and how to enjoy a forum to it's fullest.

Chapter 1- rules.

As well as the rules of the internet applying, there is also some important "extra" rules on ROBLOX forums, here they are, and be sure to follow each on TO THE LETTER.

1) Rememer that what the moderators say goes. Should someone dare to even break this rule in a minute way be sure to spam that report button until either the rule breaker is wiped from the face of ROBLOX or your compiter freezes. Trust me, it is what the Moderators want. And evereyone knows looking good in a Moderator (Shortened to 'mod') Is instant fame and popularity.

2) If someone disagrees with you report them. They are performing a 'personal attack' which is against the rules; They are attacking your opinion. Shouting of the word "Noob" can also boost affect.

3) Your ROBLOXian's join date is important. Should someone who is newer than you attempt to speak to you, you have every right to think of them as lesser, or not take them seriously, with your excuse being 'I've been on longer than you. I am superior."

4) If you ever run low on Tix or Robux (Currencies) and are fortunate enough to have BC, TBC or OBC (Symbols of status, BC is higher than NBC, TBC higher than BC and OBC are to be treated like royalty.) make sure the entire forums know you need donations. Sooner or later a kind soul should come and donate.

5) Never get in the way of OT if you care about your well being; OT will destroy any that opposes them.

6) Finally, remember that if you dislike something or someone, be sure to create a thread about it. The world wants to know!

Chapter 2- Forumers and their types.

Just like how everyone is different, so are Forumers. This section shall help you identify those people:

Noobs: Be sure to scream 'NOOB' in capitals when dealing with these people. You can idenfity them by their general annoyance (Not to be mistaken for 'Trolls' which we shall cover next). Remember if a noob tries to speak with you, you must either ignore them or yell at them. Noobs can also be people you dislike.

Trolls: Great, friendly folk who will normally help you with anything. Be sure to ask these people should you need anything or be unsure of something. They can be identified by their deliberate attempts to annoy people on threads. Do not worry, for mostly the target has wronged the troll, or done something bad in order to deserve this. Consider getting 'Trolled' karma. Stay on a troll's good side. Their bad side is BAD. Should you find your self being trolled, your only way to fight it off is to keep arguing with it (Ignoring what is stated in the rules of the internet, that is an error and most trolls have adapted since then.). Just keep yelling and reporting until it goes. You can then brag you fought off a troll and lived.

Roleplayers: NOT to be mistaken for 'OD'ers'. Roleplay, sometimes shortened to RP is often found in the 'Roleplaying' thread. These people can be prone to breaking rules sometimes, often the ones about dating. Be sure to help them out by giving them a big fat report. This should teach them the error in their ways. You may encounter trolls here too. Should you join an RP, be sure to 'Godmod', 'Urber' and genrally make your 'Chara' (Your character) the most important and most powerful in the entire RP. Since RP's are a battle for popularity within the set story. (RP techniques will be covered later)

OD'ers: Online daters. These people find it great fun to 'Date' people they have only met on the internet. They can rage from often hanging around OD'ers of the other gender, hoping to get their attention and make them their 'Bf/Gf'. While others simply sit in a place (Normally a hangout like the ROBLOXian pool) and call out things like: "Who's single?" You may want to avoid these people, or perhaps report them for added effect and to increase your fame. If you ever decide to OD, be sure to hang with an entire group, making sure you are the only boy/girl in that group. And should they threaten to report you beg them otherwise. This is a proven and tested method.

Grammar freaks: They can often be seen correcting you, or using perfect grammar. There are excuses for this. Excuses are often to make you sound big and important, or if you are writing something important (Such as this guide).
Be sure to tell them to lighten up, or use poor grammar around them. They will get the message and join in eventually.

There are more types of forumers than this, however most others are not as well known and I shall trust you to discover and name them accordingly. You may also use some of these names for them too, like Noob if you cannot come up with a name yourself.

Chapter 3- RP techniques

This is a section for those wanting to roleplay. Anyone else may skip this to Chapter 4.

I shall now list techniques and how to make full use of them:

Godmodding: (Shortened to Gmodding, or GD'ing in rare cases.) This is important. Any good rp'er knows to use this, regardless of the rules (Since some fear it, and know they will be bested in RP'ing if they allow it.). To 'Godmod' is to make your character the best in the story, however there is much more detail to it than that. Should your rp character find himself in a fight, be sure to dodge every attack and make sure all your attacks hit. You may also make your character kill the other rp'er, and ignore them for the rest of the rp, claiming they are dead. You may also make yourself invincible, or give him insanley strong powers Eg. "My character knows all the elements and is the strongest being ever made. He also rules the universe and cannot die." Now all you need to do to edit this is use the next technique:


Grammar: Do not worry if you don't know what this word means. All you need to know is to type with deliberate mistakes, replace letters with numbers, like 3 instead of e and so on. By doing this people can't help but not ignore you. Let's spice up that last sentance using Godmodding alongside this:

"My Ch4r4ct3r nos 4ll t3h elemnts nd 1s t3h str0ng3st b31ng 3vr m4d3. H3 1ls0 rul3s the univ3rs3 nd c4nn0t d13."

Now you're garuanteed to become a proffesional!


Being accepted: Before you can jump into an rp you must be 'Accepted'. This can be considered bullying as you can be unaccepted and left out. Simply report any thread which requires acceptance then jump right in. You character can be doing anything and no explination is required. How great is that?


Unfair fighters: Do not mistake this for godmodding. It's only godmodding if YOU are doing it. Should anyone else dare to godmod against your character you must become enraged and yell at them until they regret crossing you. If they godmod against a character that is not you, you may simply ignore it.

Utilise these tips. They will come in handy.

chapter 4- Internet text.

Unfortunatley this guide is dedicated to forums, so this is our final chapter in the world of ROBLOX forums. I could cover so much more such as the games on ROBLOX, or even minor threads (Often ones that have less trolls, since they are not as 'fun' or 'intresting'). But we'll have to conclude here with a short glossary:

Lol: Short for laughing out loud. Can be changed to 'Lul' 'Lolz' or even 'L0L'.

Be sure to put this after every sentance you type, regardless if it was funny or not.

Trololo: Trolltongue for Lol, often used when a Troll is amused, or is sucessfully trolling.

Nm: Short for Nothing much. There is little to say about this word.

1337: Translates into leet. This word was used long ago in the times of the beginning of text speech. If you are 'leet' you are epic, awesome and the best at everything. Use 1337 at the end of your sentances after Lol for extra effect.

Ty: Short for thank you. Can also be Tyvm (Thank you very much). Use this whenever greatful of something.

Hai/Ohai: Genrally a greeting. This replaces most other greetings on the internet.

OMG/ZOMG: Oh my 'Gosh is what this little '1337' word stands for. This is often used when you are angered, suprised or really happy. It is often used to emphasis and 'Zomg' is often even better. Use omg for emphasis, and ZOMG for '1337 ultra emphasis'.

Narbcaik: Translates into Noob. Nothing else too it.

Be sure to use capitals, or even numberspeak (Using numbers in exchange for letters) to make yourself even cooler. Even create your own combos of these words at the end of your sentances for extra effect.


Thank you (Ty) for reading this short guide. Show those forums you're the new cool guy with these awesome tips!

*Looks at OP's post count*

It's funny how you think you run the forums with 10 posts.
