Interview with DarkRoxy

Posted by Asandir - September 9th, 2017


Asandir's interviews with Newgrounds forum users

This interview features the user DarkRoxy.

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? 

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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"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."

You said in one your posts that you want to visit every theme park in the world. Which ones have you visited so far and what were you favorite parts of them?

DarkRoxy:

"Disneyland - Haunted Mansion
Disney World - The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror
Busch Gardens - Scorpion
Sea World - Kraken
Universal Studios - Revenge of the Mummy
Fantasy Island - Devil's Hole
A few six flags - Apocalypse: The Ride
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?

DarkRoxy:

"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?

DarkRoxy:

"I have 6 hidden Pokémon tattoos."

What can we expect from you in the future, DarkRoxy?

DarkRoxy:

Honestly I have no clue, but I think some stuff will be submitted on NG.

sounds like an intressting interview i really enjoyed reading that.
(i'm jealos :p ) anyway good job ^_^

Thank you ^^

Man, I'm amazed you're still around.

Glad to see that you are here too <3

I popped in after getting a large wave of nostalgia from looking at wayback archives of the old SS site.

So, that's a thing.

Awesome! I think Gimmick (who I think was a member of the SoupSquad) is still a regular user. Not sure about others.

From what I can see, most of us kinda just fell off after the Squad died.

Debating making a flash for old time's sake. Wouldn't be much of a point, though.

You could call it SoupRising Return though :3

More like "Soup Waking Up, Looking At the Clock and then Going Back to Sleep."

wow youre alive still.

Yes :o

Holy shit you're back!

Is that a can that you have as icon? Dosensuppen has one too. I notice a theme here!

I've been feeling nostalgic for these interviews. Keep em coming, please!

I'll try to make less time pass before the next one.

AWESOME INTERVIEWZZZ!

Thank you :)

How about re-setting your reading goal to, like, 195 books? (nice interview too, I didn't know you were still doing these)

Not a bad idea but I already slowed myself down so that I don't try going for 200. I am very happy with the books I have read this year and prefer this slower (somewhat) pace to let the year end.

As far as interviews, I'll try making more - another good reason to not read as much (books - I pretty much read all posts from users I interview).

Lol, what's wrong with trying though? If we go again next year I might have to make you aim for like a hundred minimum, unless this year was somehow way above what you'd normally read annually

This year I read indeed more than usal (around 50+ normally per year, wanted to see if I could reach around 100, set the offical goal to 25 to make sure I don't feel pressured to rush). Not a fan of forcing me to read 100 next year.

Not sure why you put pressure on me when I am one of the few users who puts effort into keeping your thread alive by posting summaries and encouraging others to read. Summaries that take effort as I have to translate everything from german to english, I even look up if names of characters are changed (like in the Pratchett books).

If you force me to do 100 next year, I won't take part in it. That is a laughable restriction.

I read books for enjoyment and I won't let you dictate how I much I have to read, especially since it goes against the rules that you set - I quote:

"1. Set your reading goal for the year (the amount of books YOU want to read)"

I set my goal, I reached it. I am happy with it. I don't want to go for 195 this year, nor 100 next year.

Uh okay that turned hostile real quick. I don't know how I offended you that much, but when I said I might make you set a higher goal, that wasn't a threat. I was being jovial. I won't force anything. I'm not trying to insult or attack you. I'm not trying to pressure you. I'm not dictating what you can do and didn't mean to offend, I was trying to be encouraging

I was making a suggestion and pointing out that the option to set a new goal is open. I was thinking of how to keep people interested in the thread *after* hitting their goal, thus setting a second one, and I thought you were the most obvious candidate for giving everyone else an example

I've read all of your posts thus far (save for cases where I wanted to avoid even mild spoilers) and I appreciate the effort you put into them, I'm not trying to put you off, the fact you're so prolific *is* why I hoped to encourage you to aim higher and be an example for others to follow. I feel you've interpreted my comment as coming from a place of total conceited mean-ness, or something, and that's not what was intended at all. I thought I was being friendly. You can do what you like. I won't bring it up again.

I was not offended - I was very confused though, as I felt like you insisted on increasing the goal to 195, glad that this is not the case. I am pretty straight-forward and like to make my point across with all arguments at once, didn't want to bash you either.

From my side there are no ill feelings at all.

I also would like to find a way to encourage the others (I am confident in my own level of motivation but I appreciate that you want to keep me going as well) to read more or post more about the books they read - maybe you could give the future months either a theme (read one book from one genre or a certain time era, etc.) or encouraging reading one specific book so that it can be discussed like in a sort of book club - might be things for next year.

Ah man I see you did another one of these! It's been a while since I've been here so I guess I missed this one, always a great read though.

Thank you :3

mabye interview DanieltheManiel, hes pretty cool new user

Joining the book thread this year?

Oh, yes. The only thing I have read so far this year is the Visual Novel Steins;Gate Zero ^^

Just a heads up, my total count seems to have diverged from yours in the book thread.

https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1462198/12#bbspost26899907_post_text

You seemed to jump from 51 to 55 in this post and then kept counting up from there. Could easily be my mistake though.

That is actually my mistake :o
Thank you, I updated it in my local textfile that I keep, so future posts will have correct numbers <3

Congrats on scoring UOTD!

Congrats on the UOTD dude!
