Are92 was a notable Norwegian user who joined in 2006. He made extremely famous places over the course of 2007 and 2008 during which he created a large audience with himself through the creation of a Roblox-centered YouTube channel called studioARE. In late 2008, Are92 quit Roblox and proceeded to make his Roblox related videos unlisted. Since then, very little has come of StudioARE's YouTube channel, Are92's account, or any of his previous work. He is best known for his YouTube videos and winning third place and winning the Scariest Monster Category in the Spooky Building Contest
History
Are92 gained notoriety from his YouTube channel, StudioARE, by posting machinimas and short comedy videos to his channel between the middle of 2007 to the end of 2008. His first video series, Idiots of StudioARE, has amassed over 300,000 views across the four videos in the series.
Are later won the May Fun video contest, and lifetime Builders Club, for his Top 10 Ways to Die in ROBLOX video. A video which, to this date, is one of the most viewed ROBLOX videos of all time. Several months later, his most notable 'brick film' was released: RoWar: Chapter 1, which to date has both received over 100,000 views, and earned Are92 accolades from the ROBLOX community. Though only one chapter of RoWar was released, a studio worked with Are from early 2012 to 2015 to work on a 'Reboot' of the series. However, as morale with the team of the Reboot grew low, the project was ultimately cancelled. The screenplay for the first chapter has been leaked in part on several outlets.
During the golden era of StudioARE's YouTube, Are92 and his friend Are14 (AreLam), started a third-party forum community for gaming and machinima videos of the same name. StudioARE.net was registered in July 2008. The community, at its peak, had over 1000 users. It began its decline after Are92 left ROBLOX.
StudioARE's YouTube channel has posted several videos since Are left ROBLOX, often very far apart. Its Miners of StudioARE video series came to some interest with the public, but was never continued despite the 13,000 views the video received. Their Alien Swarm let's play video series, though nine parts, has not received nearly the same amount of views as their significant other videos.
Eventually, Are92 formally proclaimed that he no longer had an interest in being involved with StudioARE. In early 2016, a StudioARE 'employee' assumed control of the StudioARE YouTube with permission from Are92 and AreLam with the goal of bringing back StudioARE's community & YouTube. The new producer started a live video series, and was working on a number of new ROBLOX video machinimas, including some that had to do with the RoWar universe. That producer departed the project after disagreement over the management of StudioARE. StudioARE's webpage has been a static 'Coming Soon' page for well over four years.
Legacy
Ever since the release of his first Idiots Of StudioARE 1 video Are92 received a lot of recognition and praise by the ROBLOX Community.
Compromised Accounts
Throughout the existence of Are's account, there have been three compromisations of said account. The first one took place on May 26, 2010 when Are92's account was pass-guessed by a hacker. Another separate one took place on January 20, 2015, after an individual impersonating Are92 sent an email to info@roblox.com, who willingly gave up his password despite the email not matching. The final and most recent one took place in late December 2016 when his account was terminated during another alleged attack on his account.

Return to Troll
On Tuesday, June 14, 2011, Are92 and Are14 (known as AreLam on his website) were convinced in a chat-room to log on to ROBLOX for a short while. Assisted by OZZY941 (Brickwork), jediknight123, Quentonious, and Mr44, they accepted all of the friend requests sent to the Ares, and visited several places. Are92 also traded most of his 2 million tickets on the trade currency, which crashed the trade economy by dropping ROBUX value to 6 tix for a short time. Afterwards, Are14 posted on the StudioARE Facebook and Twitter pages, "I am Done trolling ROBLOX".
