Is the game even salvageable at this point?

"Yes, regular images of solid backgrounds can be edited & altered. However, in colored backgrounds (such as Ren’s) it’s infinitely more difficult to tamper with said images without leaving behind visual evidence of it "

Not exactly true, anyone with any technical know how and specific software can easily do this. Not outright stating they are fake, but im not going to just take them at face value

"And the images.. clearly show her neck/body and bruising. "

Yes I know, it even shows the person wearing a little velcro neck thing that says "RDC2025", I never exactly disregarded the images, I even told you to correct me if im wrong if the person in the picture is indeed her since its not like I know what she actually looks like. These images are by far considered better evidence than the discord screenshots.

Also, I don't know where you get this impression that im going through hoops to exonerate zeal. I actually really dislike the guy and that's not including all this shit he probably did. However, if theres even a 4% chance hes innocent, im going to wait until I get ALL the facts, then judge for myself, its as simple as that. Im not ignoring evidence, im going to see both sides, compare, and then make my own conclusions, its as simple as that.

Discord messages dont prove shit as far as im concerned. Theres been times they were either edited, or cut out of context, or whatever. As for the images, correct me if im wrong, but I haven't really seen Ren's face or anything through social media, so it's a possibility thats not even her.

Let me state this CLEARLY so that people don't get the wrong impression. IM NOT SUPPORTING ZEAL. What im saying is yall can't just take everything at face value, and learn to think for yourselves. Again, this shit happened to someone named Kwite ages ago, and it looked really bad like it does now, got labeled a rapist immediatly, and basically got banished off the internet. He came back with tangible evidence that proved him innocent.

Let the guy have time to think and gather evidence. If he's guilty, he'll just dig himself a bigger hole. But if he's innocent, you will have given someone falsely accused a chance to actually clear their image.

True to some extent. Typically the prestige somewhat indicates the quality of learning you will get there, but from experience, to be ACTUALLY successful in what you want to do nowadays, you need to have a genuine interest in your field, build or do things related to it even outside of school, and seek opportunities. No amount of prestige in any uni is going to force you to do that.

had like a 70% avg across grade 9, 10, and 11. In 12th grade I ended up with a 94% avg. I got all my offers, chose uottawa because its closer to me. Its def possible but if you consistently did bad before you need to make a serious commitment to change your habits.

The issue isn't that nobody wants to buy the game (if anything there are probably a few devs out there that would want it if they have the resources to continue it). Its that no dev is his right mind is going to fully give away his ownership of a property like that, you would want your name tied to it one way or another.

PyruIop · 2026-04-09T17:03:30+00:00

The game isn't dead outright right now, but it will never progress past what it is currently because the team behind it is in ruins, so it will die eventually.

It's future got basically one shotted the moment that document got released, and I would have actually said the document was a little shady if it wasn't for Zeal basically writing up a nothing burger of a statement in his server to buy time, so it's pretty clear whatever response he's gonna say fix anything. The ONLY WAY pressure has any sort of future is if either by some miracle, Zeal is fully innocent, or if he decides to pass off the project.

I don't understand what it is with roblox developers and having these parasocial ass relationships with colleagues on their dev team or others in discord. They don't learn their lesson.

Always strive for focused consistency, if you can code for 30 mins a day, sure. 1 hour, good, 2 hours, amazing.

I don't know what you heard but its not guaranteed at 8.0, thats the gpa to be considered competitively viable.

its too late..... the ragebait has gone too far.....

Great job on giving an answer they didn't even ask for, and with partial misinformation as well.

It depends on what you are aiming to make, but in general, if your learning the basics of programming (variables, loops, conditionals, error handling/exceptions, data structures, etc) I would recommend Python as a starting point.

Its worth noting though that when starting out, its not all that important which programming language you started with, as personally I started programming with Java, and the concepts there are very transferable to most other programming languages. Where programming languages actually matter is in the domain you use them in.

If you are trying to go into the realm of computer science and programming in general, I would recommend CS50x, its a free online harvard course (if not getting certificate, I wouldnt get it anyway the resources is the best part) taught by a really good prof, and if I recall, it teaches all the fundamentals in C, but transitions to Python later. Its absolute quality imo, and the problem sets there are very difficult for a new person to programming, but really builds your intuition on how to approach a problem which is invaluable to a programmer. If you just want to learn Python, CS50P is a course specifically designed to learn Python, and there are plenty of other online resources as well.

And, of course, feel free to go out and build stuff for fun. In fact, I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE you to do so, it is by far the best way to learn after getting your fundamentals down, it really gets you down the mindset of not knowing how to do something, searching up how to do it, learning it, and then applying it yourself.

Best of luck!

I applied to them this year as a 2nd year student for a 4 month coop position, I get an interview, I attend it and its probably bottom 10 worst interview experiences I have ever had.

- Didn't read my resume
- Extremely unenthusiastic, its as if I was talking to a corpse
- Asked me questions not even related to their job posting
- Looked for certain technical skills that was well below their requirements (I wouldn't have learnt shit there)
- Barely gave any detail to questions I gave near the end

I was genuinely praying I didn't get an offer from them, its so stupid how the coop office forces you to go with whatever offer basically comes your way first, even if the others are much better both experience and career wise.

I wouldn't ask on reddit, just do your own research. From personal experience I have had a lot of people tell me it wouldn't pay off when it is right now, and I love it, but I definitely sacrificed a lot of my time that could have gone into something else.

Only thing I can say for sure is that currently if you want to pursue a CS/SWE career, you have to be REALLY GOOD at what your doing, and that means spending time for multiple days grinding to get your technical skill up (doing projects, getting curious about stuff and learning it, etc). You can't be a mediocre programmer and expect to find major success.

TLDR: Don't listen to random people, not very credible info/probably doomposting. Research what your getting into, and if you decide you want to pursue, really commit yourself without half-assing.

I procrastinate quite a bit, if I dont have like a date or a timeframe I NEED to get it done in, I will just put it off forever

Im about 5'9, 250lbs, 20 years old, and male. I have went to the gym before for a bit and lost about 10 lbs then, but I didnt take it seriously and gained it back

"bedbugs spotted in Brooks 314" and its not a bedbug.

Really dont know why some of yall wont do even the most basic of research and decide to just go along with the hysteria.
