How do I get the name of the player that pressed a GUI button. Doesn't seem to hard I just need help. I want the player's name stored in a variable.

You should be using a LocalScript when working with GUI's and since a LocalScript is client-side, you always have that players name. game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name SirNoobly 165 — 9y
