🚨 ENOUGH IS ENOUGH 🚨

This community has spent years building this game.

We’ve spent money. We’ve recruited players. We’ve built clubs, families and friendships. We’ve kept this game alive.

And this is how we’re repaid?

The age rating has changed, leaving many of us deeply concerned about whether enough safeguards exist for younger players in a game with private messaging, user-generated content and mature interactions. At the same time, long-time players have watched names being changed under the new Terms of Use while genuine community concerns continue to be brushed aside.

We’re tired of feeling ignored.

If our voices don’t matter, our wallets will.

📅 COMMUNITY SPENDING BLACKOUT

From 25/08/26 until 01/09/26, we’re asking every player, every club and every family to stand together.

✅ Keep playing the game.

✅ Use the Bentos and Extra Credits you already have.

❌ Do NOT buy Extra Credits.

❌ Do NOT buy Doctor’s Notes.

❌ Do NOT renew or purchase subscription packs.

This isn’t about hurting the game.

It’s about reminding ATA that this community deserves to be heard, and that player safety and community trust should come before profits.

Change your status to:

“We built this community. We won’t fund decisions that put children at risk.”

Then post that status in your Tutor Chat, Club Chat, Family Chat, and anywhere else players gather.

Encourage everyone you know to use the same status and join the spending blackout.

One player can be ignored.

Thousands can’t.

We built this community.

Now let’s remind ATA who keeps it alive.

Hiya! To clarify (because, yes, the forum was unclear), they were not able to silence for the first 2 weeks. This time was used to learn and practice. Now, after those 2 weeks, they are able to silence in game but are still on probation with strong guidance from full and senior mods. Junior mods also do not receive crates to host community events. They will remain as junior mods until probation is complete, in 2-3 months (ish), at which time they will be evaluated by the dev team and promoted to full mod or released from the team.

This is the first time that mod team additions have been done in this way and also the first time there have been senior and junior distinctions so things may have been adjusted from what was previously stated on the post.

Hope that was able to answer any questions ❤️

Thank you for the clarification, Lyssa!

30 days silencing policy is diabolical 🌚
Even 7 days is basically insanity when it comes to 18+ age restricted gameplay.. 🌝
I am sure,, unlike me,, the respected AUTHORITIES are matured enough to check on the silencing policy again and revert the existing ones❣️🌹

I had suggested earlier, I'll suggest again, for posting in wrong channel, silence should be only one day, and should not add up to silencing tiers. Create a seperate tier for wrong channel posting silenced. Ppl make innocent mistakes, they cannot and should not be equated with rings done with intent

It has been suggested many times, thats why wrong channel silences over 24 hours can be appealed for a reduced timer until there is a technical adjustment to silence tiers
