I know the posters on this forum are not lawyers, but I think that scripters is the best place to go in this case. I made a Bible verse GUI. (You can go see it on my place if you so wish) It gives a random Bible verse to people when they join, and has them say that they read it. It contains no profanity. My question is this: does having such a GUI violate Roblox rules? I have read the terms and conditions, and did not find anything that would make my GUI inappropriate. Nevertheless, I decided to ask on the forums before publishing it for general use. Thank you for your help.

God Bless,
Noobertuber

Why would it? Saying no to religion is a sure way to get your company criticized.

Most here are Atheist, therefore they will naturally disagree with you. Even so, it breaks no rules.

I realized this, however I also hoped that others would realize, as you did, that the question was not about personal agreement.

God Bless,

It's against the rules, because you're plagiarizing the bible.

Btw, if anyone somehow thought that my previous statement wasn't a joke, he seriously needs to learn better to distinguish jokes from non-jokes.

I mean, the bible is in the public domain and was created before copyright was invented...

Well, I don't think it violates any rules, but I'll groan, roll my eyes, and close the window the moment I see it...

Nope, you can add it to your game, however, only Christians will agree with it.

I don't...I think it's stupid- and offensive to many religions. Imagine if a Jew came into the game. They'd be offended. Especially if they read it and chatted it.

Maybe keep this for a place like "~The Grand Christian Church of Robloxia~"...then it'd be ok with me and other religions.


But NICE! You're really copying so much down onto a GUI? I once tried to write a book on a GUI but I lazed out on the...I don't know...not even a page, prehaps. Got boring. :o

Religions should not have been made.
Those are over respected and if you say no to those you're a racist.. srsly..
If somebody blames me for being racist it's his time to start thinking

No i dont think thats racism, i think its more like not allowing freedom of religion (=freedom of thinking anything about anything no matter how weird you think it is, and allowing you to base your decisions on it :3)

The "I have read this verse" button sort of implies agreement, especially due to the direct mention of the verse. It can be debatable, but just change it to "Close window" and there shouldn't be any problem in that regard.

The GUI itself is a little annoying, I'm not sure why you feel the need to share your beliefs so strongly (especially since the game is not religion-related at all). I don't know if roblox would approve, but I think it's acceptable (albeit not the best idea).

It's such a shame that it's for a Hunger Games game. Please, OP, for the sake of the game, don't ruin it. If you want it to be even remotely popular this isn't a good idea.

Never playing your games again. It's sick that you attempt to force people to your belief. People like you need to grow up.

Well, it is his game and can do whatever he wants with it. You can be an ignorant atheist somewhere else.

"Shut up, God is real. Stupid brainwashed children listening to everything scientists say.
And no, it's not against the rules."

Why should I believe in some fictional character when there is no proof of his existence?

"ignorant atheist"

Implying he is ignorant because he doesn't believe in God.

"Well, it is his game and can do whatever he wants with it."

So say an atheist got into power in a country and people in that country expected the person in power to be respectful to them and then the person in power started ramming anti-religious papers in their faces, you'd think that's respectful and right?

"brainwashed children"

>Implying believing in anything you have to get-- Ironically-- Brainwashed into believing (Honestly, if he really existed the knowledge of him would be in our heads when we were born) makes you a sane adult.
