History
Retarded beginnings at SSRG
Selbi originally joined the scene in late 2007. Because of his bad English and thinking he is awesome at hacking (which of course wasn't the case), he didn't get validated at all, but banned. In June 2008 he joined the SSRG and started his "hacking carrier" there, but because of his sub-par English, he quickly became something new (in other words, retarded).
By releasing a hack called Sonic 1: Project 255 on August 2008, he got banned from SSRG (the hack was just a piece of crap with stolen content from Sonic 1 Harder Levels Version and the very first Sonic Megamix). After this time was over he returned being much more active, but not more careful (as he actually should be). At this point, he started learning ASM, and eventually got better and better at it.
On Retro
Selbi tried astounding 9 times to get approved on the Sonic Retro validation forum (9 accounts and not just 9 tries with 1 account), which is probably the current record in the whole community. 8 times he failed miserably because of poor English, bad validation posts, etc. But on June 2009, exactly 1 year in the scene, he finally made a good validation post and got approved.
Today
While Selbi can't draw or compose much, he is pretty good at programming (specifically Motorola 68k ASM, Visual Basic .NET and PHP). He likes helping people and creating tutorials (he feels embarassed by those though, which is why he only posts them on SSRG). He is a member of a number hacking teams, including Team ZX and Harder Project. One of his main goals is to be a Tech Member in the future (even though he doesn't think it ever will be accomplished). Nowadays he is mostly working on his hack, hoping it'll be something really special one day. He also works on hacking utilities sometimes. His lastest project was Sonic 2 - Text Code Generator. He doesn't really contribute much to the Wiki, mainly stuff about his own pages or random edits here and there.
