Why do people use their display name as like "14y"?

Discussion

I constantly see it popping up every time I play a multiplayer experience, where there's at least one player named "13y" or some other number, is it supposed to be a 3 letter username? Does it mean like their age? I really am confused.

That might mean lay but if they put their age in their user then they are an idiot

I dont understand 40k******* or 24k********** Usenames like whate hell

Edited

They are just kids that think they are older tnan everyone else and think that it's cool, so they put it in their name.

Good, then you're not the stupid kind of kid.

(Also, if you're a kid, why are you using reddit?)

A lot of kids are putting the year when they are born, I saw a lot of people having 2009-2010-2011 in their username

jesus christ thats terrifying, I joined in 2011 and put 2001 at the end of my username, now theres kids joining who were born in 2011

u/alluvicqueen avatar

it’s honestly insane to think abt. i joined in 2013 but it’s crazy how the game is still so popular (it’s more popular if anything)

I joined in 2013 aswell.
Damn, I remember seeing the Roblox announcement of what happened to Erik Cassel...
I think that's why Roblox let you say the name of the disease that killed Erik Cassel.

Don't you know there is no homework for elementary school

14yr = 14 years old, is it not that obvious?

13y is prob: 13 years, like 13yo is 13 years old. or im completely wrong, idek what Roblox is doin these days.

u/Redditor_47736592 avatar

The weird side of roblox has to have something to do with this

Maybe stands for 14 years old?

DAMN, I made my display on a random, its "78y", but its just a randomly display.

You guys are wrong, I heard the players that named 10y - 999999999999y is speaking Georgian language or Thailand language, some people don't understand why they named it 15y and think that's their age, if you are thai person, you can speak why your name is 14y, and the Thai person will explain it, so yeah Thailand players know why they named 14y and some of the different countries like America don't remember it and confusion.
