Early Life and education
John Peter Rodgers was born on March 28, 1982, at Silverton City, Robloxia. He was raised in a small house at a suburban neighborhood near a lake.

As John was often described as “creative”, he would frequently participate in several competitions and other events which took place in his middle school. These events often included creativity and building things. John was also gifted a computer from his father in 1994, and would gain the interest of designing and coding games.
Unfortunately, in September 1996, Rodgers’ father died of cancer and because of this, Rodgers threw away his computer violently a few days later in anger and sadness. A few months later, Rodgers grew out of his frustration and set up a small garage sale at his house in January 1997. Susan Rodgers took care of him for the remaining years of high school.
