Atlas Reality Player Cheating and Abuse Policy
Introduction
At Atlas Reality, our commitment is to provide a fair, enjoyable, and competitive environment for all players. We aim to maintain the integrity of our game economy and ensure a high-quality experience. Unfortunately, incidents of cheating and abuse threaten these objectives. Our policy explains the actions that constitute cheating and abuse, the consequences of such actions, and the steps we take to address them.
Scope of Policy
This policy applies to all players of Atlas Reality games and services, including but not limited to Atlas Earth and Atlas Empires.
Definitions of Cheating and Abuse
Cheating and abuse in our games include, but are not limited to, the following actions:
- Location Manipulation (Spoofing): Using tools or methods to falsify location data to acquire game assets (such as land or passports) in regions where the player is not physically present.
- Exploiting Ad Systems: Utilizing autoclickers or other automated tools to watch more advertisements than is humanly possible, thereby manipulating reward systems.
- Fraudulent Transactions: Engaging in deceptive practices such as making purchases and then cancelling or returning items while retaining the in-game currency or other benefits. This applies to the Atlas Merchant Platform (AMP), Atlas Travel and future innovations at Atlas Reality.
- Abusive Account Actions: Engaging in manipulative activities such as multiple accounts per person that disrupt the integrity of the game economy.
Consequences of Cheating and Abuse
Atlas Reality employs a zero-tolerance policy towards players who engage in cheating and abuse. The following measures will be enforced:
- Immediate Ban: Players found violating any of the above policies will be immediately banned from all Atlas Reality games and services.
- Loss of Game Assets: In the event of a ban, the player will forfeit all in-game properties, statuses, and virtual assets without any compensation.
*New Exploit Exception: If in the course of engaging in cheating or abusive behavior a player discovers a new exploit and voluntarily reports it, helping Atlas Reality close the exploit without any third-party relationship risk (advertising, brand partner, vendor), they may receive a refund of any Atlas Bucks purchased directly through our store or subscriptions. However, they will lose all other assets and must start over. This can only happen once per player, and only if the exploit is deemed valuable by Atlas Reality management. If not, the player will be permanently banned.
Reporting Mechanisms
Players are encouraged to report suspected cheating or abusive behavior through our in-game reporting tools or by contacting our support team directly. All reports will be investigated thoroughly, and necessary actions will be taken to maintain the integrity of the gaming environment.
Amendments
Atlas Reality reserves the right to amend this policy at any time. Players are encouraged to review this policy regularly to stay informed of their responsibilities and the rules governing play.
