Vault 8166 - Classic

This version is the classic Vault 8166.Vault 8166 is rumored to be a hidden server on Roblox where unexplainable things beyond usual are occurring. It is allegedly a secret map ran by unknown hackers, which have the ability to watch or monitor activity going on between users. It doesn't appear to be a literal vault itself, but it's believed to be a metaphor meaning "Vault/containment of hackers". It is said anyone who goes there can gain access to certain information on Roblox and use the Installations, GUIs, and programs. It is then used to create new software, bots, or viruses that are placed and hidden into Roblox models or plugins. When inserted into a place, they obtain the ability to interfere with gameplay, local scripts, and even computer monitors. Vault 8166 is described as "the reason behind the Roblox website's sudden maintenances". However, it is still unknown whether this server exists, and no solid evidence of its existence has ever been found yet.

= The Leaked User Story = On November 15, 2016, an anonymous user created a new thread on the ROBLOX Talk sub-forum. This user was claiming to had accidentally gotten into this "unknown place" while testing out a teleporter for a game. The thread was a brief summary of how "evil is operating behind our eyes", and that there is a place where dangerous people are gaining access to user profiles and other information as we speak. This secret place was referred to as "Vault 8166". A few hours after the thread was posted, word went out. Mysteriously, the thread was nowhere to be found, along with the user who posted it. The thread may have been taken off by moderators. If not, something else was work, and it wanted it gone.

People have thought that this forum post was the final message sent by one of the users above before they got "captured" after one of the users found out that the footage was taken 2 minutes after the forum post was posted, this was proven by using the Wayback Machine. Recently, a user submitted footage of what seems to be a hallway of Vault 8166. The time and date this was recorded is unknown. It starts off with a hallway full of computers and switching screens that resemble codes. It also contains red flashing lights, a strange white room at the end, and a poster containing a skeleton saying "Warning, we are watching you". Two Robloxians, both of which resemble a common exploiter avatar, walk into the middle of the hallway. One of them is fully the color black, has a particle emitter and has red fire and the user is SolarSanic (not confirmed even now). The other is just colored red on the head, and black on the torso and the user is BoomBlox555. He survived the attack. Neither of the name tags are visible. They stop and take a look around, and out of nowhere a strange skinny figure with large legs comes out from behind and starts running at them while waving its arms. Both characters start panicking. Right when the figure reached them, the video suddenly blacks out. While the figure in the video can't be easily identified, we can see the face was blurred out.

There's a person with 4 letters name who owns the vault. It's mysterious but, it is said that the owner's name starts with W and ends with T. It is confirmed by a helper. The player could possibly be W0AT. (mixed opinions on that dude) A screenshot of Vault 8166 was released in RT before the forum merge, which shows a screen and a stack of servers. The user explained it as the "core" of Vault 8166 he managed to view through CCTV. He also mentioned that there is no possible means of entering the core without getting caught by a "Patroller". The forum post was deleted by an administrator and the user was terminated. = History = Vault 8166's creation date is unknown but, we can safely assume it was created prior to 2015 thanks to the Wayback machine. Many people claim Vault 8166 was involved in the 2012 April Fools incident, but that is not confirmed yet. A user has recently came forward and shared this screenshot shown on the right. The player claims it was taken all the way back in 2014.

= Server Room Footage = On March 18, 2018, a video on what appears to be a server room located inside of Vault 8166. It lasts around 6 seconds, the server ranks inside this room are beeping noises, along with a rotating fan inside the vent shaft. It is still unknown how this footage has surfaced. The room has a blue tint to it, there are around 6 server ranks seen in this short clip, and there is a light above the ceiling.

On further inspection, the clip was uploaded by BoomBlox555, the very same person who was in the other footage. It was likely that he took this footage while inside the vault. It is still unknown how BoomBlox555 and an unknown player got there in the first place. It was likely a hacker's teleporter that sent both of them to the vault.

= Corrupted Cave Footage = On May 18, 2018, a video has surfaced again by the same channel who uploaded the server room footage back in March. It is a video on what appears to be an underground area of the vault. There seems to be a broken window leading into an area of the vault. The video footage has been recorded by a security camera due to the footage moving left and right. After a few seconds, the camera gets corrupted, and the video gets fuzzier. The camera is now pointing at the ground.

After a few seconds, the camera goes back up, then, the footage gets corrupted again, causing the video to end. Some people say that there was a player found in this footage, proven with screenshots.

= The Two Live Streams = On December 2, 2018, 2 Livestreams has been broadcasted in a small time frame showing what appears to be Security Camera feed from Vault 8166. The livestreams are both one hour long, and they are both set in the same place. The livestreams are published by the very same channel who uploaded the Server Room footage along with the corrupted Underground Area footage.

There is way too much information to cover so you have to check them out yourself, but beware because the livestreams can be boring at times. Some say that there was one more Livestream months back before the two livestreams surfaced.

= Game = Vault 8166 can be found here.
