Any and all funding will be solely from consumer participation and interest as well as any free will offerings of individuals for the establishment, support and continued viability of this company, now and in the future. This is for several reasons.

The main ones are:

We will not have this company and its business coerced or dictated by a board of directors and to reduce the option for anyone to engage in such illegal activities as inside trading and other concerns that far too many companies have allowed themselves to be destroyed externally and internally by.
We will not become a publicly traded company that is also at risk of having imposed social politics and utilization of such dependencies of investments and investment firms to leverage and force a company to disregard its consumer base that in turn inevitably destroys a company and results in the boycott of its majority consumers of its products and services.
Additionally, we will not allow this company and its business activities to be dictated by those who disregard the interests and concerns of the majority of its consumers catering to a specialized demographic that also has little to no real concern for the continuation or sustainability of this or any other business and its present and future end consumers.

Examples of Spam

Any email message that is sent to a recipient who had previously signed up to receive newsletters, product information or any other type of bulk email, but later opted-out by indicating to the sender that they did not want to receive an additional email, then that email is spam.
Any email message that is sent to a recipient without a way for a person to opt-out or request that future mailings not be sent to them, is spam.

Any emails using the same name with numbers and the same email service are red flagged and are regarded as spamming and potential alt attacks such as anonymous-1234@gmail.com, anonymous-1235@gmail.com, and so forth where the only change is the number and the IP address, State and or Country is detected and found to be the same.

Hate Speech: Hateful speech is hereby defined as a form of expression attacking a specific aspect of a person’s identity, such as one’s race, ethnicity, male or female gender, religion, sexual orientation, or disability. Hateful speech online often takes the form of ad hominem attacks, which invoke prejudicial feelings over intellectual arguments in order to avoid discussion of the topic at hand by attacking a person’s character or attributes.

Clarifications:

Negative Racial / Ethnic Remarks, Representations, Etc.

This category includes both clear and masked language and/or links to websites containing such language or images which:

Promote racial/ethnic hatred
Are recognized as a racial/ethnic slur
Allude to a symbol of racial/ethnic hatred

If a player is found to have participated in such actions, they will:

Be temporarily banned from the forums
Be given a final warning, after which any further Code of Conduct violations may result in a permanent ban from the forums

Threats are any action or statement used to intimidate another player and includes such as threatening to do them harm physically, sexually, socially and or financially. Treats also include shamming someone for their gender (misogyny = expressing hatred and claims of inferiority or insignificance of the female gender, and misandry = expressing hatred and claims of inferiority or insignificance of the male gender).

Zero Tolerance for Intimidation tactics

Message Bombing: The intentional flooding of a person’s or institution’s communication means or channels such through but not limited to chats, forums, emails, phones, computers, mobile devices or any other such means with messages meant to limit or block a user’s access to an operating system or platform. This also includes any activities deemed to be spamming.

Non-consensual Submissions: This includes any personal images or video clips or audio recordings sent to another continuously after being told to cease and desist from continuing to do so, and or "revenge porn" such as distribution of private, sexually-explicit images, audio recordings or videos of individuals without their consent.

Impersonation of Others: This is not the same as creating an online avatar and character name but rather copying such things pretending to be someone else, hoaxing user accounts, and using such means to damage the name and reputation of another person. We also define this as pretending to be a representative of this company (staff), a third party service, law enforcement and so forth in attempts to also "scare" or "coerce" others into actions they would not normally do (such as favors for anonymity, sending money, and or any and all illegal trades and transactions or interactions). Furthermore, this extends also to the use of such as Deep Fakes and other like or similar forms of impersonation.

Any action used to deliberately irritate and harasses other players within the game, using aspects of the game in unintended ways or 'ganging up' on a specific player preventing them from equally enjoying or using the service/product. We also consider any anti-newb type propaganda, commentary or actions taken against any new members by established ones as griefing which will not be tolerated.

General Harassment: Any action such as but not limited to "begging" for "benefits, virtual goods," repeated intrusion and harassment of others having normal and civilized conversations, any petty and retaliatory actions when instructed to "knock it off or stop doing something that is bothering or annoying others, and general trolling.

Sexual harassment by anyone: We do not care if this is from an adult or minor. Any sexual bullying, or any other unwanted sexual attention being directed at others as already outlined, intentional individual or group initiated act of humiliating or using discriminatory sexual content or references towards others, or attempting to motivate a group "exclusion" attack based on someone's gender or sexual origination (Heterosexual, Homosexual or Bisexual), submission of any and all sexual requests be it modest to explicit when already told to cease and desist from doing so, or using sexual threats, or coercive tactics to try and force or manipulate another to participate in unwanted sexual behavior online, or blackmailed with sexual content into such "participation" will not be tolerated.

General Trolling: We define General trolling as any action involving inflammatory comments or suggestions with the express purpose of causing needless anger or hostilities, and/or the repetitive posting of inflammatory or hateful comments online by an individual whose intent is to seek attention, intentionally harm a target, cause trouble and/or controversy, and/or join up with a group of trollers who have already commenced a trolling campaign, and/or seeking to or attempting to organize a group of trollers to commence a trolling campaign.

Methods also prohibited:

Such methods are also identified as a group of trolls working together to overwhelm a target through a barrage of disingenuous questions, threats, slurs, insults, and other tactics meant to shame, silence, discredit, or drive a target offline.
And/or pose as fans or supporters of your content with the intention of making harmful or demeaning comments masked as constructive feedback (I.E. how to improve appearance to make one more attractive, or how to be better in relationships with others) often as veiled sarcasm and overall disingenuous comments designed to undercut, humiliate or demean you and/or others.
This is where online gamers cross over into offline consequences.
This usually occurs after a doxing incident with the express purpose to put such information out to be accessed by more extreme harassers and bullies.
The most common form is seeking enough information about someone so as to file a false report or hoax call is placed to law enforcement detailing a completely false but plausibly threatening event that the caller claims is taking place in a target’s home or business at the moment a call is placed.

SWATTING: The term comes from calling in to compel a SWAT team of fully armed offers to storm a location putting the target and the target’s family in grave danger of being killed. Because of how serious this is, anyone caught attempting to "SWAT" others will be reported to the authorities ans will be subject not only to punishment by cyber crime laws, but an immediate filing of a law suit by Cyberathia, LLC for using the website, product(s) and/or services for such criminal activities and damaging the reputation of the name and company.

Reverse Age Roll Play is Strictly Prohibited

Reverse Age Roll Play is pretending of an age younger than you are (An Adult pretending to be a minor) or a minor pretending to be an adult, and or a group of adults pretending to be minors involved in adult relationships, or minors pretending to be adults in adult relationships as all such things will be considered predatory actions as well as advocating child molestation, pedophilia and all other such disgusting sex crimes.
This also includes, but not limited to, intentionally seeking a relationship with another adult, pretending to be an adult and only later revealing your are not an adult and then in an act of revenge falsify a claim of an adult seeking an unwanted relationship with you with the express purpose of ruining their reputation and or resulting in them being arrested for pedophilia and sexual delinquency or misconduct with a minor, otherwise known as entrapment.
Any text based form of such reverse age role play and/or suggestive or explicit representation of such content will result in such accounts being terminated upon discovery and treated as advocating child molestation, pedophilia and all other such disgusting sex crimes.

Who is considered a minor?

Here at Cyberathia it is anyone who is not truly 18 plus years of age regardless if they "identify" as being an adult or not. We do not play around with "identity politics" or make room for such being used as an excuse for using our service(s) or product(s) in any manner that they are not intended to be used or how they are accessed and by whom.

Note: We do not make special considerations for other countries if the recognized age for adulthood is under 18 years of age and abide by this determination at the sole and absolute discretion of the owner of this company and its products and services.

While it is true that what defines a person as a minor by age varies in each country, Cyberathia is headquartered in the United States of America. For that reason we strictly enforce the definition of a minor as any person under 18 years of age without any special considerations.

Child Protection Laws in the United States are clear. A minor is someone who is under the age of 18 years of age. End of story. We likewise enforce this without question or hesitation.

Be Mindful that the catch here is that unless content is expressly adult in nature, persons at least 13 years of age can sign up for a diverse range of services, especially through such as social media.

Also be aware that as much as 80% persons 13 years of age use such public social media and other venues and platforms and online products and services.

This means that while we will do everything in our power to protect both adults and minors from predatory actions or inappropriate behavior, adults need to be made clearly aware that the person(s) they may be interacting with may be as young as 13, and in some cases even younger if permitted by a parent or legal guardian, especially where minor status varies from country to country as to what is defined as underage, legal and illegal. When such is in question we default to 18+ years of age as the default adult status.

If you are a minor, defined here as a person under 18 years of age, either do not use this product or service, or be mindful that your behavior can also put someone 18 or older who is not a sexual predator or sex offender into a registered sex offender status.
If you are an adult, defined here as a person18 years of age or older, use your head and pay attention to how the persons you interact with say things, behave or otherwise drop unintentional clues you are not dealing with an adult. Granted, there are plenty of adults that can come across as childish or child like for any number of reasons.
However, with so many minors able to access and interact in adult capacities they can learn how to be 'mature' for their ages. In short when in doubt, don't. And even when certain, without being able to verify for yourself without risking a violation of these terms, still use caution in regards to who you are socializing and interacting with online.
You will find throughout our terms and policies we specify 18+ as being an adult person with no exceptions to that rule.
If you have concerns the person(s) you are interacting with are not 18+ years of age do not engage in any communications or suggestive role play outside of a paid for AOP when using the standard free access membership account and game play.
The 'excuse" of seeing or having seen 'others" doing such is not in and of itself a grant of leniency and you as an adult are accountable and need to remain mindful of that at all times.
Furthermore such parties are likely subject to careful review and closer examination for legal reasons that would not be being disclosed publicly for reasons of investigation and monitoring.
You as an adult person 18+ years of age should also recognize that as a said adult, that such an excuse is both nonsensical for an adult and won’t hold water in a United States Court of Law.
As a minor you also will not hold any excuses here. Don’t Role Play sexual situations here, ever.
The potential to hurt yourself, and also an adult needlessly is factually massive and can ruin someone's life forever that didn't deserve it. It does not matter what your gender or their gender happens to be.
As such we seek to protect adults from child predators as much as children from adult predators. It is intolerable all around.
If as a minor you knowingly misrepresent yourself as an adult to another adult and/or Role Play any lewd or erotic content, we will consider the action as Entrapment and will be reported to the appropriate legal authorities.
Your information will likewise be collected, preserved and shared as evidence regardless if you are a resident of the United States of America (North America) or not and you will not be welcomed back to any aspect of Cyberathia or its subsidiaries.
If you’re an Adult and Role Player of lewd or erotic content with someone you know is a minor, you will be reported without notice to the proper authorities and your submitted information will likewise be shared with said legal authorities, and you will not be welcomed back to any aspect of Cyberathia or its subsidiaries regardless if you are a resident of the United States of America (North America) or not.

Notice to Minors

Many of us are experienced and seasoned gamers and know and have experienced issues with other (not to be named) sites that tend to be lax on enforcement of policies on persons under the age of 18. We will not be so lax.
This means many will have had situations where such have Role Played in relationships that involved intimacy, sex, marriage, with people who "Swore" up and down to be adults only to later be found out and confronted.

"We are aware that as a teen or group of teens that may be using our service(s) and product(s) will have the opinion that you and they could get away with it, so why shouldn’t you and them?" So for clarification "why you should not" is as follows:

You will get caught.
You will be reported to the proper authorities.
It will be considered entrapment.
Pending the severity we will pursue legal restitution.
Your account will not be refunded.
Your content will be removed.
Your accounts will be terminated.
Your IP addresses will be banned indefinitely.
Minors can be charged and listed as sexual predators.
And many states have laws that if you commit or involved in adult crimes you will do adult time.

Furthermore your legal parent or guardian will be informed of your actions by default as a consequence of such behaviors and/or activities, whether alone or with others.

We take the safety of adults just as seriously as the safety of minors subjected to unwanted attention of such a nature.
Don't be stupid and don't risk your future over nonsense.

The laws are changing all the time.

Courts are becoming more aware of these activities.
Lax companies that punish adults but let minors slide or "get away with it" are shutting down even if said Public Relations people for them manage to dodge this issue as a cause.
It only takes one pissed off judge to ruin your life because of you "just having fun playing people" online, no matter how much money your family may or may not have.

"Examples are made" all the time.

Its worse when some politician starts pushing actions against minors directly for entrapment of adults and it’s the last thing you and your friends or anyone else needs.
The whole "you just want what you want, and don’t give a damn who you might hurt as long as your get your way is a fast closing door and we will be one of those sites and games that will help slam it shut.
Play responsibly or don't play at all.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

1) APPLICABILITY OF THIS DISPUTE RESOLUTION POLICY

Our Dispute Resolution Policy (“Agreement”) is a part of the contracts between you and Cyberathia, LLC., (collectively, “Cyberathia”), which governs the resolution of any dispute, controversy, or claim, whether based on contract, tort, fraudulent misrepresentation, statute, regulation, constitution, common law, equity, or any other matter that arises out of or relates to Cyberathia, LLC's End User License Agreement (“Dispute”). By registering and using any of Cyberathia 's services, you hereby consent to this Agreement.

2) DISPUTES.

In an effort to accelerate resolution and reduce the cost of any Dispute related to, or arising out of Cyberathia's End User License Agreement, which is incorporated into this policy, you and Cyberathia agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except as set forth in Section 5 below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before either party initiates any arbitration or court proceeding.

Negotiations will begin upon receipt of written notice by the party raising the Dispute. Cyberathia will attempt to send its notice to your e-mail you provided to us.
We are not held liable for your failure to provide and maintain clear means by which to send you such notices or a failure to respond within 30 days of receipt of said notices.

3) BINDING ARBITRATION

If a Dispute cannot be resolved through negotiations, either you or Sybirathia may elect to have the Dispute (except as set forth in Section 5 below) finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. You should review this provision carefully. This arbitration provision limits your and Sybirathia ’s ability to litigate claims in court and you and Sybirathia each agree to waive your respective rights to a jury trial.

The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are available at the JAMS website ( http://www.jamsadr.com/ ). This arbitration provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”) shall apply to the construction, interpretation, and enforceability of this Agreement notwithstanding any other choice of law provision contained in this Agreement.
If, for any reason, JAMS is unable to provide the arbitration, you may file your Dispute with any national arbitration company under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association.
The arbitrator shall determine the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement, including whether a Dispute is subject to arbitration. The arbitrator has authority to decide all issues of arbitration ability, including where a party raises as a defense to arbitration that the claims in question are subject to one or more Exceptions to Negotiations and Arbitration in Section 5, below.
Where any action includes claims that are arbitrable and claims that are not, the entire action shall be stayed, absent a showing of prejudice to the complaining party, pending the completion of the arbitration of the arbitrable issues. You or Cyberathia can request the stay be lifted upon a showing of prejudice.
Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures.
The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on you and Cyberathia, and any award of the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation. However, the arbitrator shall shift such fees and costs to ensure that you do not pay significant forum fees. In addition, you shall not be required to pay any type of fee or cost in arbitration that you would not have had to pay had you been free to file your claim in court. The parties understand that the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court. However, each side will be permitted discovery sufficient to allow that side a fair opportunity to present or defend their claims.

4) CLASS AND COLLECTIVE ACTION WAIVER

You and Cyberathia mutually agree that any arbitration or court proceeding shall be limited to the Dispute between Cyberathia and you individually. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT:

A CLAIM BY, OR ON BEHALF OF, OTHER PERSONS, WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED IN, JOINED WITH, OR CONSOLIDATED WITH, THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS OR ANY COURT PROCEEDINGS BETWEEN YOU AND SYBIRATHIA;
THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED, ADJUDICATED, OR RESOLVED THROUGH COURT PROCEEDINGS ON A CLASS-ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; AND
YOU WILL NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR AS A MEMBER OF ANY CLASS OF CLAIMANTS FOR ANY DISPUTE SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION OR ANY DISPUTE BROUGHT IN COURT.

Any Dispute regarding the prohibitions in the prior sections shall be resolved by the arbitrator in accordance with this Agreement. If, for any reason, this class or collective action waiver is deemed unenforceable by a court or arbitrator, you agree that the parties’ contract to arbitrate is then void, and any ongoing or future Dispute will be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction within the County of Clackamas, State of Oregon, United States of America, to the exclusion of arbitration. Any Dispute at that time in arbitration will be dismissed without prejudice and refiled in a court. Under no circumstances do you or Sybirathia agree to class or collective procedures in arbitration or court proceedings or the joiner of claims in arbitration or court proceedings.

5) EXCEPTIONS TO NEGOTIATIONS AND ARBITRATION

You and Cyberathia mutually agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning negotiations and binding arbitration:

any Dispute seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of Cyberathia’s intellectual property rights;
any Dispute related to, or arising from, claims that the other party has committed piracy, or tortuous interference; and
any claim within the jurisdictional limits of the small claims courts.

6) LOCATION OF ARBITRATION

Arbitration will be limited to the United States of America ("USA"). If you are a resident of the USA, any arbitration shall be initiated in the County of Clackamas, State of Oregon, United States of America, to the exclusion of all other venues.. Cyberathia, LLC may of its own accord, petition for a change of venue as deemed necessary.

For residents outside the USA, any arbitration shall be initiated in the County of Clackamas, State of Oregon, United States of America. Any Dispute not subject to arbitration shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the Clackamas, State of Oregon, United States of America, and you and Cyberathia agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

8) SEVERABILITY

You and Cyberathia agree that if any portion of this Agreement is found illegal or unenforceable, such portion shall be severed and the remainder of this Agreement shall be given full force and effect. Any Dispute subject to any such portion of this Agreement shall be decided by the arbitrator.

9) RULES OF CONSTRUCTION

A court shall construe the agreement to arbitrate and the agreement to waive class or collective actions in any manner that will render them enforceable and give them effect.

10) REJECTION OF THIS AGREEMENT

When applicable, you desire to reject this Agreement, do not complete installation and return your product to its place of purchase, or removal from your devices, and or platforms. When a matter of credit or refund is a factor we default to our Refunds Policy. Completion of the installation process shall indicate your acceptance of this Agreement.

Miscellaneous

No failure or forbearance on Cyberathia’s part to exercise its rights or insist upon performance of your obligations hereunder is to be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of those or any other rights or obligations in that or any other instance; rather, the same shall remain in full force and effect.

If any provision of this Agreement is deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, such provision shall be narrowed in scope or otherwise amended to the extent necessary to make such provision lawful, valid and enforceable while as nearly as possible reflecting the intent of the parties as expressed in this Agreement, or, if such amendment is impossible, severed from this Agreement.

No amendment or severing of any provision of this Agreement shall affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining provisions.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Cyberathia, LLC relating to the subject matter hereof.

REJECTION OF INDEX SCORES, HRC, HRW AND OPEN SOCIETY FOUNDATIONS

Cyberathia, LLC regards all Social and Equality Index Scores as predatory and discriminatory in that it promotes specific persons and identities over others and counterintuitive to individual freedom and equal opportunity employment and driven not by Equal Human Rights and Civil Liberties but contrary to them. In fact, it is demonstrable that it is not about Human rights but "Special Interest" and imposed censorship.

It is our view and policy imposed by the HRC on individuals, businesses, and the laws by openly engaging in Censorship, the suppression of words, images, or ideas that are “offensive,” according to their imposed personal political or moral values on others.
We reserve also the right to boycott any stores, companies, organizations, groups or firms that that impose these ideological and politically driven and financed indexes, and stand under our protections as afforded to all of us by the First Amendment.
It extends not only to books, theatrical works and paintings, but also to posters, television, music videos, comic books, games or any and all other published works.
By their collective organizations and interconnected trades they not only engage in social and political imposed culture, but also engage in discriminatory and oppressive practices that include financial and economic suppression of equal economic opportunity and viability of individuals and businesses as well as equal market access.

This includes Municipal Equality Index scores designed to violate such independence by imposed policy in place of or manipulation of laws that are in themselves discriminatory, and contrary to their proclaimed purpose. This makes them by definition misleading, discriminating, and biased and prevents and restricts funding options and opportunities for businesses and states that refuse the discriminatory and biased imposed social and political agendas.

If and when discovered any organization or individual has directly or indirectly accepted any funding from such as the Open Society Foundations and its additional branches such as the so called Human Rights Watch that repeatedly misrepresents and trespasses against individual freedoms and liberties and in direct violation of the Constitution of the United States of America, and the autonomy of this and other countries, we will terminate these relationships due to their historic and ongoing false, misleading, illegal and predatory practices.
