Not to be confused with 1developer2.
1dev2 was a user who is best known for creating the game Welcome to the Town of Robloxia. Following the 2012 April Fools incident, his account was terminated due to buying a hat on April Fools, which admins thought he had acquired illegitimately. He has become active on another account named 1dev3.

On January 15th, 2010, 1dev2 created the game Welcome to the Town of Robloxia. Its popularity was monumental, gaining over 20 million place visits over the course of three years, however, it did not become popular until shortly after 1dev2 was banned. Created with the key focus of roleplaying, the place was initially criticized for stealing the concept of Playrobot's Robloxaville, which was published nearly two years earlier. This was later debunked as she has said in a recent interview "1dev2 never stole the game; he actually came up to me asked if he could make a place like Robloxaville."
Since the game was un-copylocked, many users have copied Welcome to the Town of Robloxia.
Many users have also attempted to remake this game, but due to the games not being updated or advertised, they all quickly lost popularity and closed down. These users include Adrian928 and Xkrew.
One previous description on the game stated Playrobot developed the 'Magic Morph' Gui feature which was used to customize bundles on a player's avatar in-game. Many Roblox users loved playing this game during its popular days. Sometime between 2015 and 2016, the game was put under review for an unknown reason. Nowadays, it is mostly forgotten, even by some of Roblox's veteran players.
Termination[]
There has not been a clear reason why 1dev2's account was terminated. Some users from the Roblox community claimed that 1dev2 bought the Eerie Pumpkin Head for 2 million Robux during the 2012 April Fools' incident which was misinterpreted by a moderator as an illegitimate purchase due to other users' accounts being compromised at the moment.[1][2] Another user claimed that one of the compromised accounts that were given admin powers during the incident awarded 1dev2's account the aforementioned 2 million Robux and/or rare items, resulting in it being terminated for "economic disruption".[3]
Alternate accounts[]

Following 1dev2's account termination, impersonators and deceitful accounts were created claimed to be created by 1dev2. A user by the name of ErrorXtrem claimed to be 1dev2, but this turned out to be false. Timdefeatyou asserted to be the original creator, even though there was little to no evidence to this. Furthermore, he was also the very first to report this, affirming it around an hour after 1dev2's account was terminated. Some comments of a YouTube video[4] claimed that the alternate accounts of 1dev2 were SK8RDEVAN, and TheScrambledEgg.
It would later be found out that 1dev3 is an alternate account of 1dev2.
