Would anything related to 9.11 / old WTC be allowed on Roblox?

Hello,
I recently took a trip to NYC and went to the 9.11 memorial and museum. The museum was very interesting (and quite sad), but gave me the idea to create a virtual museum on Roblox.
Do you guys think it would be allowed on Roblox to replicate the old WTC Complex and construct a mini 9.11 museum, or do you think it wouldn’t be allowed due to the sensitivity/disturbance of the events?
Thanks,

Uhhh, tough question, read Roblox’s TOS, im sure you’ll find something about it there.


I wouldn’t risk it in my opinion, roblox is a kids game after all.

Thanks for your reply, with the new 18+ stuff on Roblox I thought it might’ve been possible
I might try reaching out to Roblox support to see if they have any answers

I wouldn’t take the risk but check through Roblox TOS rules that will help you also if you make it on a higher age it might be allowed.

Support didn’t help they sent me something completely unrelated lol

I think a museum, specifically a copy of the 9/11 memorial museum in real life would be fine, so long as there is no dipection of the actual attacks, i.e. an animation or “rendering” of it happening. Id also be careful about the text and images used.

From what I recall, its been a long time since I went in person, the museum has some moving artifacts that dont directly show the towers in the state of being attacked, think the fire truck or the last column.

You can always upload your experience on an alt account, and set the age limit to 17+ just in case.

Definently dont use the word attacks, terrorist, war, etc anywhere in your game, stick to calling it a museum. Even memorial might be too much for moderation.

“Strategies of terrorist organizations” makes it seem like a no

Usually, museums(in person or digitally) have information or display boards explaining the object, if you’re going to explain the motives behind the incident. That is breaking TOS, I also think you haven’t read the top part, sharing images of the terrorist group(al qaeda), like photos of Osama, or their flag, is again prohibited, but is needed for a museum.
