BUT, we think it’s fair that if we do get reports of people abusing them to get certain advantages in any kinds of experience, we might reverse our decision. We sincerely hope that will not happen.

Or they can just do this.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Character: Model)
	for _,v in Character:GetChildren() do
		if v:IsA("Accessory") and v.Handle:FindFirstChild("PointLight") then
			v.Handle:FindFirstChild("PointLight"):Destroy()
		end
	end
	
	Character.ChildAdded:Connect(function(_instanceToRemove: Instance)
		if _instanceToRemove:IsA("Accessory") and _instanceToRemove.Handle:FindFirstChild("PointLight") then
			_instanceToRemove.Handle:FindFirstChild("PointLight"):Destroy()
		end
	end)
end)

Alternatively, add an option in workspace to enable or disable any type of special effect in an accessory.

Default: Do nothing.
Disable: Disable the effects

That being said, there’s a precedent for this. As stated on the Wiki page, back in the day, players who wore the Egg of Destiny item in @asimo3089’s Jailbreak were kicked from the game.

Just to be clear, Egg of Destiny used to have a script inside it that caused errors to appear in the developer console. Considering this accessory was removed and not the Sparkle Time Pumpkin, I believe the script was the cause of the items removal.

The Pointlight was a special part of this historical hat, it was the very first ROBLOX hat to have that pointlight features, as well the very first hat to have Dynamic Lighting.

Hey! Just wanted to give a heads up for everyone before this thread closes! Following Klaugrana’s suggestion, qliz wrote a feature request for a toggle to disable item effects. I believe this would benefit both the players who want to keep these cool effects in casual games, and the devs who want to keep their competitive games fair! If you have any experience trying to control item effects in your games, I’d love to see your thoughts in the replies!

Add a toggle to disable specific special effect types from avatar accessories

As a Roblox developer, it is currently hard to deal with certain special effects included in avatar accessories created by Roblox over the platform’s long history, including particles, sounds, and even lights, which have the potential to be disruptive in certain types of experiences. Over the platform’s history, Roblox has released many different avatar accessories that include special effects, such as particles, sounds, and lights. Some of these accessories are Limited items that are very expe…
