Would I get banned for this?

I was working on my survival game and modeleing some heals when I found that I had a dilema. I wanted to make one of the heals for an infection type of injury to be antibiotics. But, with roblox modereation, I am second guessing if I should make this or not, because the TOS states that regulated goods and/or drugs are a bannable offense. Because antibiotics are regulated goods, I don’t know if i should use them or not.

Make it so it’s a herb, or a potion of sorts.

That should get you past fine.

I can’t be for sure, so I suggest that it’s best if you contacted Roblox support about it.

Including antibiotics as a healing item in your Roblox survival game could violate Roblox’s Community Standards, which prohibit the depiction or promotion of illegal and regulated drugs, including prescription medications like antibiotics

To avoid potential issues, consider using generic or fictional names for healing items, such as “medkit” or “healing potion” which are commonly accepted in the platform’s games

You could name it “Vitamins” instead.

e.g. like DOORS

in-game it sounds like there would be pills inside of it

Yet even if it’s named Vitamins, it still looks like a pill bottle in some sort of way.

 

ToS, also mentions weapons, but shooter games are available in Roblox. I don’t think the ToS is talking about it appearing in-game. It’s talking about how it appears in-game and what exactly is appearing in-game, and how it is appearing in-game. The context in that line was about “Advertisement”.

It also mentions “OSA”, probably _ UK’s Online Safety Act_.

Then there’s also the Community Guidelines. Which also mention a few things, but with the word “illegal”.

But I am not a lawyer.

 

Vitamins is such a better name. However then again, if you have a texture in-game that has written “Antibiotics” on it, it’s another question to ask.

 

I also feel like this is measured depending on the game’s Content Rating.
 

I feel like DevRel and DET should create and establish a page on Roblox together, that contains simplified rules.

Discord has created such.

Only thing I found in the creator hub that mentions the words from this topic was this page Ad campaigns | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub

I recommend trying to take some time to learn animation, maybe someone on the dev forum would be willing to animate it for you got free just depends.

Ok, ill be sure to look for ways to help myself learn to animate better. Also, should I invest in moon animator 2 for this?

Okay, good luck with this!

It’s up to you to be honest, im not the best animator myself I’m mediocre at animation so I can’t give you much support on that but id be glad to help.

Thanks for all the help! Also I think I should invest in moon animator. From what I’ve heard, it is much better than the default animator in Roblox studio.
