Dateline 2/5/2001: GIFTS OF ADVENTURE -- IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Some of you may have used our Gifts of Adventure, a gift certificate valid for the purchase of any Simutronics product. These are intended to be used solely as gifts. We have recently had some problems with customers using them as currency for the purchase of in-game items or characters. Such behavior, using Gifts of Adventure as currency for in-game items or characters, is not condoned by Simutronics.

Please be aware that a Gift of Adventure can be revoked if the purchaser disputes the credit card charge. You may lose your Gift of Adventure and the person you traded goods with will still have your items. If you choose to risk it and accept a Gift of Adventure as currency for an item or character, it will be treated as an in-game scam and you will not be reimbursed for your items or characters.

Additionally, any customer found to be perpetrating this type of fraud intentionally, will have their account terminated and all items and characters on that and any related accounts will be forfeit. Please use the same common sense you would regarding in game bartering to avoid any problems.
