My name is CJ otherwise known as scalperhero and i am from the Uk
i have always been a indoor person i don't really like to go outside at all apart from when i need to or if i'm with my family i have always been a gamer and i loved to play games i like to entertain people always have enjoyed making people smile i have been like that since i was in school witch i left at the age of 11 years old. my reason for leaving is because i am dyslexic and the school i was going to wouldn't teach me due to me needing special needs to be able to learn it was always hard to learn and it still very much is the way i was able to learn how to read and spell was due to the fact on how many games i played a lot of them back then you needed to read other wise the story would make no sense and due to learning how to read the story with in the games i was able to learn about spelling don't get me wrong i still have a very hard time with reading big words and spelling and also if you are reading this you will also learn that i have a mega problem with is grammar. grammar is something that i will never be able to do right and for spelling i also use spell check so its not like i just sit there feeling sorry for myself i do really try my hardest in everything i do :)...
growing up i also never had any friends i had no real interest in having friends since i was always bullied and i saw everyone as a bully so i didn't really get clowns to anyone and i pretty much became a class clown and when i saw smiles on people face's i felt like i had achieved a little something even tho i was also thinking that i might not be able to do it again i still felt joy in the fact that i was able to make people smile so i set my life goal to always try and make people smile and happy as i believe that everyone should be able to have that feeling :)..
so i thought you no what the best way to do that is to be a entertainer i pretty much set that as my goal but i also had the problem of not liking to go outside and i still don't like to go outside unless i have to or if im spending time with my family so really the best way for me to be able to stay inside and provide entertainment for other people was to try my best to try and make guys so as a child i tried coming up with my own board games and card games it was sooo much fun making them a a kid don't get me wrong only me and my mother would play them as she was all i had as a child in terms of family the rest of my family pretty much wanted nothing to do with me and as i got older the idea of making computer games got more and more into my head so i thought to myself i wonder if that would be possible for me to do my mother would support me all the way for that but as for everyone else no matter who i talked to about it teachers other kids other family members all said that i will never be able to do stuff like that in my life and to just give up trying to go for a dream like that so with people telling me that i started keeping games to myself so all the games i came up with just pretty much went in the bin in the end as they was never going to be played by other people. then in 2005 youtube started up and well i saw a chance but ofc at that point i didn't have the stuff to make a video or anything like that so i was just stuck watching youtube. as time went on and i started getting older i started saving up every little money i could get my hands on and in 2012 i manage to get my hands on the gear that i finally needed to start my channel. the reason behind starting my channel is because i wanted to combine the two things i love doing the most witch is playing video games and making people smile by trying my best to entertaining them no i wasn't going to make my channel but i got a lot of support from my loving girlfriend at the time that said that this is something that i could do i say girlfriend at the time because that girlfriend then in my wife now and for the past 4 years she has been supporting me in my youtube channel and also back then she believed that i could also make my very own video game she has been the one to fund my channel and my game making for the past 4 years and she also still believes that i will one day get my dream come true so after years and years of my life of been nothing but put down by everyone i knew even my family i now have a game in a beta witch was made by rpg maker i know that might not seem much to many people but to me that is a start of my dream come true since my dyslexic is a big problem in my life i can not learn coding so i cant sit there and code a game do to that problem so rpg maker is the only way i can go . and i also have my youtube channel witch is at 700+ subscribers in 4 years time the date to day i have written this out is 28/11/2016 and i started my channel 28/11/2012 so i have been on youtube for 4 years today witch i am really happy about so i can also tell you that as long as you don't let people get you down then you can do great things i have a people that like my content and i thank them all for supporting me well i guess that is my story guys i hope you enjoy it

Thanks for reading i hope to see you all around sometime
