Earlier today, I spotted these MTA No Drop Off signs at the Q102 bus stops and asked the MTA via Twitter:

Can @NYCTBus translate what the @Mta drop off only signs at Roosevelt Island bus stops mean. Is the Q102 bus not picking up riders? @RIOCny @BenKallos pic.twitter.com/bzJWJtIbIl

MTA replied:

Got a quick answer - those "Drop off only" signs are for the F Shuttle Bus tonight from Queens Plaza to Roosevelt Island station, as per the route instructions and signage created, the F Shuttle is to make all Q102 stops on the island as well, dropping off only. ^JP

The Roosevelt Island Tram operates until 2 AM.

Good luck getting to or leaving Roosevelt Island during these hours.
