Injection Healing allowed?

I’m on the fence if stabbing yourself with a stim is against ToS. Would it be possible to pull this off?

I’ve seen some games do it in the past.
I think it should be safe as long as you don’t add unneeded blood/gore and don’t emphasize it too much.

I’d say that this a gray area regarding self-harm, because while a slim shot does not damage anyone, but rather heals them, it may still be wrongfully interpreted in the eyes of players and moderators.

However, I have seen syringes before in other Roblox games such as Ro-Bio and its subsequent remakes that can inject viruses and extract blood, so if those games haven’t been taken down by now, there shouldn’t be any problems including a slim shot that have the opposite effect of the aforementioned needles.

What i belive is true

Well, I think as long as there is no Gore/Blood Shown you should be in the green zone, but it depends. if its for a healing animation to heal the player. then i guess you should be alright.

Are syringes allowed in a non drug related way?

In a part of the game I’m creating I thought it’d be cool to be able to “create” a sort of mutant/zombie using a array of different mixes you can make. These would be put into a syringe and wouldn’t be injected in to yourself, but the zombie or other players. I know that anything drug related is definitely off limits, but I was wondering if it has no relation to drugs, if it would be allowed? since I’ve seen a few syringe models on the toolbox that haven’t been moderated.

Is medical syringes allowed as a tool in Roblox?

I added a Stim Shot into a beta branch of my game and a player mentioned that it may not be allowed. According to the Roblox Community Rules, it states that “syringes or other content representing drugs is not allowed” and I do believe medical syringes are a type of drug. However, other players also mentioned that other games have medical syringes and it’s fine because it’s for healing and not the other purpose. May I have some clarification? Thanks in advance.

Are needles permitted into roblox?

Hey there fellow developers, I am working on some sort of outbreak/border game, and within it I would like to add a product that will allow you to instantly be infected. After purchase, you’ll receive a tool that is one time usage. There would be an animation for 3 seconds of you injecting yourself with the needle in the arm and then turn into an “infected.” I understand roblox’s terms is that you are not allowed to use medication/pill usage, but do needles fall under that? Thanks.

@Qveex

such as Ro-Bio

Now that I think of that, I believe Ro-Bio was actually taken down for using this. “Drug Use” Please correct me if I’m wrong.

[Qveex]

Yes, Ro-Bio was taken down for this reason, but other fan remakes such as Ro-Bio: Evolution and RO-BOTS contain injections but have not been deleted.

Do it quickly and add like a sound, no blood or squishing noises.

[earthyviking92 (Viking)]

Suggest that you make some form of drink that pulls off as a potion, or else it will probably seemed like drugged water.

Sorry, it’s probably best if you don’t want trouble.

[SubtotalAnt8185]

Just make the player hold the tool without any animation and make it play the bloxy cola sound when you use it. Also, don’t play an animation when it heals.

You should be good. Oh yeah, also make it one part without a mesh and don’t include anything like “Injection”, “Syringe”, or anything like that.

[jaminz4 (jamie)]

Referencing Ro-Bio is probably not a very good source FYI. There’s a reason it’s always on different game slots.

[Qveex]

I forgot to mention that Ro-Bio was not deleted because of its use of syringes (but instead because of the game’s inclusion of gases and cruel experimentation as shown by a DevRel email sent to the developer), though I do agree I should have provided proper evidence and documentation on this matter.
