I am dying to know if this is even allowed because I have gotten warnings for this type of stuff in the past but the devs of the game are saying its fine.
if you want to look deeper

It is not allowed. If you report the game. It might get taken down.

No, this should not be allowed, here is why. According to Roblox’s Terms Of Service advertising off-platform links is against Roblox TOS, unless it is approved and whitelisted by roblox. (Which almost never includes Discord.) Some alternatives to this would be adding links in your group page which usually is allowed. Terms Of Service

JavaScript? Just curious I am learning it rn! 
I have no clue 
I just know the devs and advised them it might be a bad idea to have it in the game

Well all I know is it is not allowed to do.

@Master3395’s and @asher_dz’s answers aren’t accurate, it is allowed, provided PolicyService is used, which seems to be the case (Why is it javascript, that is cursed)
Typically, it’s allowed for users above 13. It is also how you can have links under your game’s pages, those links are only shown to users allowed to be on those platforms, or so see the links to those platforms
The reply above mine is acurate

Also incorrect.
- External links are only allowed in your roblox profile.
- You are not allowed to promote or advertise off-platform social media links (such as Discord, Twitter, etc.) inside the game, this includes text, images, or videos uploaded to roblox.
While there may be APIs or methods that can appear to bypass Roblox’s policy, it’s very unlikely they would pass moderation if the game is reported. roblox actively filters certain terms like “Discord” in-game.
In addition, roblox requires that all games filter both chat messages and any text displayed on GUIs when live text is used.
Although your message may only be sent from the server, it still hasn’t gone through Roblox’s built-in age-based filters.
For these reasons, i strongly recommend avoiding any attempts to advertise or link to off-site platforms.

Look at @avodey post it shows that it is allowed
?
This is my game. Not my profile
Read the documentation about PolicyService
“Discord” and other off site links are indeed checked by roblox in chat messages. When it comes to games, it isn’t checked, and is allowed if it goes through Roblox’s built in verification, aka, PolicyService
A “join our discord” message is not dynamic, and doesn’t need to be filtered
