When did you find Newgrounds and why did you join? Why did you choose the username hyperrobotz16 and why did you change it to QuinnHarIey, MistyWaterflower and then to DarkRoxy?
"I found Newgrounds in 2004, my original name was whitebuddha, but I forgot my password.
Aphex Twin used have like 10 aliases, so that's were I got the idea from. He's an electronic musician. I make electronic music, so I'm influenced by electronic musicians. I like robots and want to build them so that was my first name. I like Harley because I can relate to her, I'm a bit psychotic. I like Misty because I love water and it's sort of based of her character. She's kind of a tomboy. DarkRoxy is some name I came up with, maybe a character I will create in the future."

Do you think that you changed over the time you were here, as user, or also in real life?
"Yes I did change, I was a bit aggressive at first but I calmed down and learned to kind of chill. I think all experiences change your life. I've been on the internet since I was 14, I really liked it, so I still come on sometimes."

Are there any other users that you like, and how do they affect you?
"I think Sekhem is the funniest user, his posts are hysterical. I like LichLord because hes a expert in IT and gives me a lot of tips when I need help. He's also a meme master, and his industrial music is getting really good. Voltage is a game developer and has asked me if I wanted to make the OST for his current project. He seems very serious about this so I'm excited about that. I've recently met a few users, old and new: Jin, HlihorAlecsandra, sukiwukidookie, and Zyri but we just started talking, but I like them so far."

Are there any users that you would consider enemies or that you just don't like?
"A true enemy is noble and follows a code. So even though I've had some conflict and haters I don't consider them enemies.
Some people try to get a rise out of me but it doesn't really affect me, I'm used to it."

What is your opinion about the forums? Is there one forum that you prefer? And is there another forum user that you want to see getting interviewed by me?
"They used to be really fun in the past. There was a lot more users and a variety of personas. You could make threads about anything and have intelligent conversations. That was the general forum. It's gotten real small but I still post once in a while. Also the audio forum people make sample packs so I like that. I don't really want to put anyone on the spot to get a interview."

I guess that you have an opinion about the moderators of Newgrounds. Do you think that they do a great job or not?
"I think most of them do a great job, but there's a few bad apples."

Would you like to become a moderator on Newgrounds? If so, what kind of moderator?
"Yeah I guess I would because I'm very familiar with Newgrounds. I would probably pick a general moderator because it's more active."

You mentioned that you own a Katana collection. When and why did you start collecting them?
"I only own two. I've had them for a few years. When I can afford it I will get more. I like to collect certain things. I'm really into Kung Fu films. I love Jet Li's films. I also love Mortal Kombat and the sequel. So I got inspired to collect weapons."

Since you bought a snare last year, I assume you play drums. When did you start? Do you play any other instruments and have you played in a band?
"I was really just into building drum kits and experimenting with them seeing how they sound like. I wasn't taking it seriously so I gave up. I can't play double bass, but I think I may start up again with a single pedal instead.
I started playing piano and keyboard when I was 13. I've played in bands but they always fell apart because egos get in the way. I wanted to be a jazz pianist but I gave up, I got bored with it. So I switched to electronic music, singing, and just started learning guitar."

Looks like you are into fighting games. What was the first one you played? Which ones are your favourites?
"I think it was Street Fighter in an arcade. I've played every fighting game and I honestly think Mortal Kombat is the only one that got it right. I think it's designed a lot better than the other fighting games. Although that's not my favorite. My favorite is Killer Instinct Arcade. I'm more into retro games and even though it's not designed well I think the characters are very unique and the combo system is different. There's also a code you have to punch in real fast with a character and you can play as the boss."

A bunch of water parks I don't remember the names of, but tube riding is my favorite."

I saw that you own a pet fish called Midnight, and also some cats and at least one dog. How many pets do you have in total?
"My fish died because I don't know what I'm doing. The rest of the animals are my moms. One husky, two mixed cats, and one white rabbit."

Every person has secrets. Can you tell one of yours or something else that we didn't know about you yet?
"I have 6 hidden Pokémon tattoos."

What can we expect from you in the future, DarkRoxy?
Honestly I have no clue, but I think some stuff will be submitted on NG.
