New Friend!
July 2, 2020

Hi there! It's the second day of summer vacation.

So much joy I had today! I can't wait to tell you about a new friend I met. I'll refer to him as D. Not gonna reveal his username in case any of you guys annoy him, haha.

Paul invited me to a minigame server earlier this day. To our surprise, we met the creator! It's D I mentioned before. Unexpected, right? Anyway, we won the first ever badge of 'meeting the creator' of our life. What's more, he chatted with us!

He was a very friendly and knowledgeable guy. We took part in the minigames together and he taught us lots of tricks to win the game! Eventually I came second place on the leaderboard. Awesome! The champion is, of course, D. Haha. Paul really sucked at the game, he didn't even reach 5th place despite the advice!

At the end of the game, we added friends. It's really lucky for me to meet such a wonderful guy.

We chatted all afternoon about the games on Roblox.

D's place
July 6, 2020

I've been checking D's places recently. He has quite a few small games he built besides that popular minigames one. I like all of them. Paul, D and I visited the places simultaneously. Paul and I wandered about as D showed around the places to us.

There's one called 'Backyard', which is my favorite. It's basically a small area behind a house, surrounded by white fence with some tiny tables and chairs. Looks simple at first glance, but it's a very comfortable place to chill and chat. It's well-decorated with beautiful textures. D is such a brilliant developer that he added some changeable sunlight and nice background sounds to the game. The house, though, is merely a decoration and there's no way to get in. The glass door was a fake one. You can peek through it, but you can't go through it. It's kind of dim inside, but judging from the lighting, the interior design would be great. D said he was still working on that. It will be opened when it's done.

I took two screenshots of backyard. There's another one I took which is what you can see from the door.

Bad Mood
July 12, 2020

Sorry for the late update. Things really went a total mess recently. Paul and I had some personal affairs irl which I don't want to talk about. He messaged me a lot but I tried to ignore him. I don't really know what to do.

I tried talking to D. He's super nice and patient. He listens, and gives you advice. That's probably the only thing that made me better.

Honestly, I think I kinda admire D now... I wonder if I can meet him irl??

I'm gonna play Roblox now.

House
July 14, 2020

I can't understand what happened. Weird

This morning, I decided to check D's places. Maybe I can talk to him. And then I noticed something..

Backyard was updated, yesterday!

I was kinda excited. 'Does this mean the house is completed or opened? or maybe I'm being impatient lol. ' That was what went through my head.

I joined the game, and only I was there.

Things didn't change. Well, except for some pink cups on the table. But is it really a small update, simply for some cups? There must be some update in the house.

D wasn't there, so I tried glitching into the house if possible.

I tried the door first. Well, it isn't working. So, I tried the other route.

You might know that the fence easily blocks a player's way and you can't jump out of it. Well, sometimes it's possible to jump onto it. That's probably a bug. Anyway, I attempted jumping rapidly at one corner of the fence, and guess what... I glitched out.

I was outside the backyard. Now I could walk around the house and find an entrance. Hopefully.

I walked along the walls of the house. And just as I went around the corner... somehow, I glitched into the house.

Incredible.

I was inside the house. It was still dim-lighted. I adjusted my screen brightness to see clearly.

I could see two rooms without doors. Pitch black. I hesitated.

Is this some horror surprise? The blackness was seemly on purpose...

I walked into the room on the left. Very slowly, the room became brighter and brighter.

I was in a pink room full of pictures of drawings.

I walked to the wall opposite to me.

I observed. They were all drawings of a variety of girls. Anime ones, cartoon ones, etc. A variety of styles. Some of them were of pretty good quality while some of them were not. I suspected they were downloaded from the Internet. The girls were all pretty close to my age.

Hmm. Maybe they were decorations? But why a room like this? A game like this?

I turned to another wall. Another wall full of paintings.

And I nearly threw up.

It was still those kind of girls. But... doing things.

I'm afraid I can't describe them for you here. It's just too uncomfortable to think of those. They... they are definitely something that shouldn't be on Roblox. Or this blog. Or anywhere else.

I would've been to disgusted to go on, but I couldn't help turning to another wall.

Frames. Of names.

I examined. They were girl's names, with a really tiny info box beneath which can hardly be read. And there was one frame particularly disturbing there which caught me right away.

Mary.

I looked as closer as I could. The info box of that frame read some things.

Age.

Location.

Phone number.

Hobbies.

So on.

I'm pretty sure I never gave out so much information, especially those personal ones! How did he know? HOW DID HE KNOW??

Too shocked and irritated to move, I froze.

That's when the message showed up.

D has joined the game.

My heart almost stopped for a split second.

'Mary?'

Think, Mary, think! I thought to myself. Quickly I made up my mind not to speak to him. It might take him a few seconds before he realizes I wasn't in the backyard, but somewhere else.

I'm pretty sure he wouldn't want me to be in his house.

I'm pretty sure I wasn't supposed to see those.

But I must.

I rushed out of the room.

'Where are you?'

Through the glass door I saw him. Facing directly at me.

We stared at each other.

And I rushed into the second room.

And I was disconnected.

He kicked me out.

My heart was racing fast as hell. Without thinking I closed the browser and the monitor.

I sat there, shivering. Unable to move.

When I was calm enough to think of reporting the game, the game has already gone.

Confrontation
July 17, 2020

Yes. I have asked D about things inside the house. He said it was still under construction, and he was preparing a surprise specially for me.

He then asked me about how I got into the house.

He didn't know where exactly I went, so I decided to tell him.

I told him about the room. I questioned him about his collection. That sick collection.

He went silent for a minute.

And here's what he said.

'It was a guilty pleasure of mine.'

I replied:

'Oh yeah... and that can make you guilty, you pedo!'

Immediately I unfriended him and blocked him. He never tried to contact me after that again.

The whole thing still creeps me out, but I guess it's over.

There's one thing I'm still confused tho: how did he get my personal information?

I probably should tell my parents about this, but they are away until August.

I'm tired.

Hiatus
July 20, 2020

I haven't touched Roblox after the incident. It makes me sick. I know it's not Roblox's fault, but...

I reported D to Roblox. He's not banned yet. I wonder if the evidence was wiped away.

Paul started messaging me again. I didn't talk to him for about a week and ignored his messages. But the recent ones just said 'I'm sorry' over and over. Repeatedly. Not sure what he's up to.

I won't update this blog as often as I did since today, sorry. I just don't feel like playing roblox for the moment.

Annoyed
July 31, 2020

Paul just messaged me that he'd like to visit me this afternoon. I'm kinda worried. I don't know whether to answer him.

...And you know what, he said 'I'm sorry' once again! Ugh. That trick doesn't work. Jerk.

I saw Paul's car coming to my house, he seems a bit taller...

Dammit

Apologies.
July 31, 2020

Hi guys.

Everything is ok now.

Paul and I had a deep talk, and I forgave him. We are now friends again.

He suggested me to check Roblox, and you know what, D was banned.

Great, isn't it?

Anyway, the past experience still haunts me, so I will not play Roblox anymore.

I will not update this blog anymore.

I'm sorry.
