This is another name for your linked email. ATA ID is one of two ways to link your account so that you can access it on other devices, or if you ever log out or unlink your device. To set one up, go to Settings > Account Management > ATA ID You can create an ATA ID with a password or without one (using email link). Your email will need to be verified to get a free DN. NOTE: your email must be valid, as password reset links are sent to that email!

Facebook linking is the other way you can link your account so that you can access it on other devices, or if you ever log out or unlink your device. It will use the profile you log into on the Facebook app on your device.

The device linking section shows the devices that you have linked to your account by logging in with ATA ID or Facebook. To remove a device from an account, go to Settings > Account Management > Device Linking in game and disconnect the device.

When you see the new user screen, tap “Recover Account” at the bottom of the screen. Select either ATA ID or Facebook, then input that information. - For ATA ID, type in the email. If your account has a password set, you will need to type it to login. If you are using Email link, you will need to open the link sent to you by email. - For Facebook, make sure you’re logged in to the right Facebook profile in the Facebook app on your device.

Resets have been removed from the game, and we do not delete accounts. However, if you'd just like to remove an account from your device, please see the steps above.

Email Link technology allows you to log in using your email, instead of remembering a password. It is more secure and easy to use! If you didn't receive the email, check in your spam folder. Sometimes it can take a couple minutes to arrive. Make sure you typed your email properly. You must click on the email button from the same tablet/phone that requested the link. If you try the link from a desktop, or a different device, it won't work. Make sure PIMD is still installed. The link must be opened with PIMD (see example on the right). If you can't open the link with PIMD, try opening your email from a different app (on Android, if checking emails from a browser, Chrome seems to work better) NOTE: an Email Link can only be used once and will expire after 30 minutes.

Please first contact us through the in-game Help menu. We will be able to help you recover your account from there. However, in order to retrieve an account, you will first need to prove your ownership of the account to help ensure account security. You will need answers to the following nine questions: 1. Account username 2. Account creation date (best guess; month and year) 3. Most recent login date (month and year) 4. Approximate geographical location of your last login 5. Last device used to log in to the account 6. The dates, prices and items of the last 5 purchases made on the account 7. Name of Club 8. Existing e-mail address (ATA ID) on the account 9. New e-mail address (ATA ID) for the account

You can set, recover, or change your password using the following link: Password Reset

You can interact with the rest of the PIMD community on our Forum, Discord, and Instagram! You can find our Forum in the top-left menu in-game or through this link: Party in my Dorm Forum You can join our Discord through here: Party in my Dorm Discord Follow us on Instagram here!

The main goal in PIMD is to grow your dorm into the best one on campus! There are also Items, Furniture, Pets and Avatars you can collect to personalize your look, show off to your friends and increase your stats! PIMD is also a very social game. You can meet, chat and work together with new people through many different channels.

Go to your profile page by clicking on your avatar, then scroll down to find your Showcase, Most Valuable Tutors, and other categories of your inventory.

You can see your combined stats on your profile below your Hire Value.
Combined stats is often referred to as "CS" and you get them by adding up your Strength and Intelligence stats.
KCS means the stats are in the thousands, and MCS means the stats are in the millions.

You can raise your stats by hiring and upgrading more dormmates in your dorm tower. This costs cash.

The more they cost, the higher the stat bonus they give you. You can view their specific bonuses in your dorm tower as well.

Bonuses from having an RS (in game relationship), collecting items, hiring tutors, placing furniture and unlocking achievements will boost your strength and intelligence further.

You can make cash by doing Jobs, participating in Parties, completing Stories, and winning PvP battles.

You can also volley other players (hire them as a tutor back and forth with another player) and/or be volleyed yourself (have two people hire you back and forth).

You can change your username by going to your profile by tapping on your avatar, then tapping on the small pen icon next to your username in your profile.

If the player is inactive, the game will automatically release their username for you and rename you to it! If not, then they are considered to be in active use and ATA will not be able to free it up even if you write in. Feel free to check on the username’s inactivity by checking in the same way!

The Beginner Furniture Key can be found in the MISC section of the Shop. If you're not seeing it, you may need to quickly refresh your app!

Avatars are your face in PIMD! They also grant sweet percentage bonuses to your stats.

You can equip new avatars by going to the Store and tapping "See All" in the Avatar Shop section, or by tapping on your current avatar while in your Profile to reach the avatar closet, where all your avatars are kept.

Some avatars can be bought right in the Avatar Shop in the Store. You can also win avatars in the spinner, Stories, some boxes, and event leaderboards. You can also get avatars by combining Avatar shards!

Shards are items you collect that turn into avatars! There are two types: Avatar shards that combine on their own Avatar shards that need an activator to combine

Activators can be purchased in the Shop. Shards can be collected from boxes and sometimes during events, as well as gifted and traded with other players.

While many shards are tied to specific events, there are avatar shard collections that are continuous and in the game for extended periods of time. They can use activators to turn into the masculine or feminine form avatars or can be used as currency to purchase the avatars from the shop. The amount of shards required can change from collection to collection. The shards could be obtainable in different ways, but most often opened from boxes!

ECs can help with almost anything! They’re the premium currency in PIMD. They can be used to buy avatars, furniture, keys for boxes, and more. You can find ECs in the spinner, purchase them in the Store or earn them through the Offer Wall.

Also known as DNs, these are used to instantly regenerate your strength and intelligence instead of waiting for them to regenerate over time. You can get these through the Nurse (tap Store, then Get More), the spinner, jobs, events and boxes.

These are used to start premium parties (Cat Cafe, Pizza Pop, and Dog Star, respectively), which provide increased cash payout and increased event drops, when applicable. Only a single player in a club needs to use this item in the party. Both can be bought in the store, as well as found in the spinner and boxes.

There are a ton of collectable items in PIMD. They can be viewed in your Showcase. Many of these grant bonuses to your stats. These bonuses can be either static (a set amount) or percentage (applying a certain % to your total stats). These are called Stat Items (or MISC). These items can be gained through Stories, the spinner and the Store, and can be gifted to and traded with other players.

These are used to post to Campus Chat or make Campus Announcements. Speakers regenerate each day when you first log in for the day. You regen up to 5 speakers a day (3 for new users for their first two weeks), and can store up to 25 regenerated speakers. You can also get speaker tokens through the spinner, or purchase them in the store for 1 EC per speaker.

These are consumable items that strengthen party actions and PvP attacks, thereby increasing your chance for success. Once you use one with an action, it’s gone! You can buy a variety of these in the store.

These are consumable items that protect you from enemy PvP attacks. They are automatically consumed when you are attacked. You can buy a variety of these in the store.

PIMD Crates are given away by the ATA team and up for grabs during community events that are announced on the forums! Keep your eyes peeled on the forums for announcements!

You can earn crowns by placing highly in certain event leaderboards and XC leaderboards. These crowns can be used to purchase special avatars and items from the Shop!

Avatar Coins can be purchased directly from Molly's Corner in the Shop or opened from monthly timer boxes. These coins are used to purchase the avatars from the Shop. The avatars are only available for that month and change every month!

Furniture refers to items that you can place in your own personal dorm room. With furniture, you can both customize your dorm room and gain extra stat bonuses from the items you place!

You can win furniture items through stories and event leaderboards, find furniture items in certain boxes, and purchase some furniture items directly through the Store or in your dorm room. You can also gift and trade furniture with other players.

Tap My Dorm in your profile or in the dorm tower to get to your dorm room. Then tap on a furniture slot. You will see two tabs: Shop, where you can buy new furniture items Owned, where you can select furniture items you already own Tapping on an item will place it in your dorm.

Tap and hold on a furniture item in the Owned tab in My Dorm. In the details screen, tap Upgrade. You need certain materials to upgrade. You can get these by recycling furniture and through trading with other players.

Tap and hold on a furniture item in the Owned tab in My Dorm. In the details screen, tap and hold Recycle. You will need to hold the button down the whole time without stopping to recycle successfully. Furniture items that are recycled are turned into material components. You can’t get the item back later, so please be careful!

Gifts are items that you can give to other players. There is a permanent selection of items with various bonuses and costs (in game cash or ECs), and a few limited time gifts that are only available during specific events. You can also “regift” some items you’ve collected through various means. These “regiftable” items are found in a separate tab to the purchasable gifts. Pending gifts can be declined but accepted gifts cannot be reversed.

To access the gift menu, you can use one of these methods: - Go to a player’s Profile and tap Send Gift - Go to your Friends list and tap Gift - Go to the Menu in PMs and select the Gift option from the dropdown Once there, go to the tab your item will be in. Tap on the gift you want to send, add a message if you want, and tap Send!

There are 3 tabs in the gift menu: Shop, Showcase and Furniture Shop is where you can buy gift items to send to another player. You cannot buy these for yourself, but other players can send them to you. Showcase shows the items you’ve already collected that you can regift to other players. Furniture shows all the furniture items you have available to send to other players.

Being in a relationship lets players send exclusive gifts to them! These exclusive gifts can be viewed from your relationship screen.

Trading is a feature that allows you to exchange items instead of gifting them. It’s a great way to exchange items you already have, especially if you want to exchange more than one. Please note that trading is done at a player’s own risk. Support cannot reverse trades, so you should only trade when you’re sure about it.

Trading is done through PMs with friends in game. Once you and a player follow each other, you can go into your private message channel and propose a trade by tapping the button in the lower left hand corner.

The official forum thread for the Trading system can be found in the Announcements section on the forum, under the title “Trading is Here!”

Unfortuantely, trades, gifts, and other in-game transactions are done so at a player’s own discretion.

A Thinking Ape is not able to intervene in these transactions, and we are not able to return items.

If you are having difficulty dealing with scams or are looking for tips on how to avoid this in future, we've made this forum post to help:
How to Avoid Scamming

You can be in an in-game relationship with one player at a time. Relationships (or RS) grant special stat bonuses and unlock dates and exclusive RS gifts.

Dates are special activities you can do with your RS that provide various helpful effects, ranging from changing the color of your names, to attack and defence boosts, to health regens for both you and your RS. You can start a date by going to the Relationships screen and tapping Date to bring up the list of dates. Once you decide on one, tap Date again.

Life in college isn’t always parties and sunshine. Sometimes people fight, or gossip, or pull pranks on each other. All of that happens in PIMD too. Battles are PvP (player vs player) attacks on other players in game. Depending on your comparative stats, you have various odds of winning or losing.

To start a battle, just tap the Battle button on the player’s profile. Then choose the action you’d like to do: Fight, Dance Off, Prank or Eavesdrop.

As in real life, conflict is a part of life, in college and elsewhere. PvP is one of the game’s core mechanics and factors into some styles of play. It is, however, completely up to you whether you decide to attack other players. Many players choose not to.

PvP is part of the game, which means Support is limited in how and when it can step in. But you can always fight back! When you have a club or a crew in game, you can ask them for help. We've also created some guides to help nagivate farming, like this: How To Deal With Getting Farmed You can also activate a Peace Tag.

With a Peace Tag active, no one can attack you in PvP! A Peace Tag lasts for however long its name and description state (12hours, 1 day or 3 days), or until you perform a PvP attack on another player. You can get Peace Tags from the spinner. They can be activated through JD's Party Store in the Shop. Remember, Peace Tags don’t stack! If you start a new one before your current one is done, you lose the current one’s remaining time.

Peace Prevention prevents a player from activating a Peace Tag too soon after they've been involved in PvP. Peace Prevention lasts for 15 minutes from your last PvP action. Once that 15 minutes has passed, you can active your Peace Tags again!

Jobs are tasks for you and your dormmates to complete that reward you with cash and the rare chance at other items such as Doctor’s Notes.

Go to the Jobs section (lower left corner on the main screen, beneath the cell phone icon) and tap on the Go button to attempt a job. The difficulty and success rates of each job varies depending on your current strength and intelligence. As you complete jobs and lose energy, these same jobs will become more difficult to complete.

There are a set number of jobs available in game. Once you’ve completed them all, there won’t be any further jobs to unlock. You can still go back and do previously completed jobs, if you want.

Clubs are constantly recruiting on world chat and on the forum. You can also look for clubs by going to the bottom of your home screen and tapping on 'Clubs'.

Club roles are different positions players can hold in clubs, with different duties and permissions associated with them. When a club is made, it has one slot for each of the roles with special powers. If you want more slots for these, they must be purchased. Here is the full list of club roles: President The President replaces the previous Club Owner position. They have complete control over all Club features, abilities, and member management. Vice President The Vice President replaces the previous Club Admin position. They are able to Kick Club Members, Start Wars, Change User Roles/Titles, Unlock Additional Role Slots, Manage Club Applications, Enable and Disable Join Requests, Mute Members in Club Chat, Start/Forfeit Parties, and Edit Club Notices + Club Page. Executive Executives are able to Start Wars, Change User Roles/Titles, Unlock Additional Role Slots, Manage Club Applications, Enable and Disable Join Requests, Mute Members in Club Chat, Start/Forfeit Parties, and Edit Club Notices + Club Page. Bounceforcer Bounceforcer are able to Kick Club Members, Manage Club Applications, and Mute Members in Club Chat. Party Jockey Party Jockeys are able to Start/Forfeit Parties, and Edit Club Notices + Club Page. Club Rep Club Reps are able to Manage Club Applications. Full Member Full Members are full time members of the club. They have no special club powers. Guest Guests are temporary members of the club. They have no special club powers.

You can leave a club by going to the club's page (tap "Club" at the bottom of the main screen), then scroll down to the bottom and tap to edit Club Settings. You can find here the Leave button to leave the club.

The Gold Pass club item allows anyone to leave and come back into a club without applying or needing an invite. It also allows you to enter a club even if it has a CLOSED policy. Gold Passes never expire! Clubs can own up to 10 Gold passes. Read more on the forum: New Club Feature: Gold Pass

Like club roles, once a Gold Pass is bought, it still needs to be assigned to someone. You can assign Gold Passes to anyone below you in club role rank. If you want a Gold Pass, and are not the President, someone of a higher club role must assign it to you.

This is a pretty rare case, but it can sometimes happen. Support can help, but only if the owner has been gone long enough to be considered inactive (this takes months). In such a case, at least 3 club members of higher roles (VP, Executive, etc) should contact Support through feedback indicating that they would like to transfer ownership to a specific player in the club. They must all agree on and request the same player.

Partying is what PIMD is all about! Work together with your friends in a club to complete epic shenanigans.

You can participate in parties by joining a club. Once the President, Vice President, Executive or Party Jockey of a club picks a party, every club member can join in. Tap on the party icon in the lower right hand side of the main PIMD screen to enter the party. On the right you’ll see the actions you can do, and the progress bars for each one. Tap on Attack and select the action you’d like to perform. If it’s successful, you’ll see the progress bar go up a bit. You helped! :)

During events that use this system, one Party and one Pro Party is chosen at random each day to be the “Parties of the Day”. For that day, event drops will be found in the chosen parties, as well as in Cat Cafe and Pizza Pop.

These are Premium parties. They grant greater rewards than other parties, but require specific EC items to start them. Hypnocats start Cat Cafes; Pizza Bikinis start Pizza Pop; Money Dogs start Dog Star

Party Items are Consumable Items activated through JD's Party Store. Slow Jam and Spreader:Adds extra time to the end of a party (15 minutes per Jam). Limit of 4 total per party (1 hour extra time). Limo/Yacht/Jet and Keys: These vehicles will help your parties start faster. The Limo makes your club’s party start 10 minutes faster. The Yacht makes your club’s party start immediately. The Jet starts the party immediately and adds a 20% drop boost for the player that used the item. IF the party succeeds, every participant receives an hour of 20% drop boost. Amps and Keytars: Use these on a party and that party will give 10% extra cash to any player who hits it. There is an Amp and Keytar set for every party series: Bro Code, Hipster, Art Skool, VIP Pass, and Otaku. You can find these items in the Spinner, Boxes and Timer Boxes or by completing some stories. You can also buy JD's Surprise Party Box, which contains a random assortment of party and club consumables!

You can find your Stories by tapping on the cell phone icon in the lower left hand corner of the PIMD main screen. If the phone is ringing, you have a new Story to start!

Stories will often require you to complete a certain number of parties, or collect specific items that drop from parties. Different Stories have different requirements, but that you can always tap the little "?" hint next to a Story task to get more info about it.

Once you’ve completed the tutorial story “Participate in a Party with your Club”, you’ll be able to start participating in the event Stories, as well.

Extra Curriculars, or XCs, are timed events found on the left-side of your screen. Any player can participate in these and work to reach higher tiers of completion. Players receive rewards based on the highest tier they had reached during the time limit.

Each XC has its own requirements to complete. The requirements, rewards, and leaderboard for each XC can be viewed by clicking into the XC itself.

“Hunts” is the name for events in PIMD, due to their similarity to scavenger hunts They involve “hunting” down items in order to progress

Events will have special, limited time items, avatars and furniture that can be gained throughout the event itself Special prizes for progressing through the events are won through event-specific Stories Other items, avatars and furniture can be won randomly through the event boxes Some furniture can also be bought in the Store during the event Often, special limited time event gifts are also be made available in the Gift Store during the event

Event boxes can be won through parties, as well as regifted and traded between players. They are opened with PIM-keys, which can be bought in the store for 10 ECs each. PIM-keys work with all event boxes To open a box, tap on it in your showcase. This will bring up the item preview screen. From here you can tap on the "Open" bar at the bottom of the page to open the box with a PIM-key. After an event is over, event boxes can still be opened using PIM-keys. The event drops are instead turned into DNs.

LITE Boxes are special event boxes that are won through a particular Story. You can earn up to two of them each day. They are opened using in game cash instead of PIM-keys. They also have a chance of dropping rare event prizes (though regular event boxes have the greatest chance). The event drops in LITE boxes do NOT change once the event is over.

Timer Boxes are like regular boxes, only they take time to open instead of cash or keys. They can contain many things, including avatars, furniture, and collectible items.

Tap the clock icon on the main screen to access them. Select one to set it counting down. You can open only one box at a time. When the time is done, come back to open the box! You can speed up the countdown using ECs and Speed Up Tokens. You can drop Timer Boxes from Parties and more rarely from the Spinner.

These are special items you can use to speed up timers! To use one, just tap “Speed up” on the appropriate timer, then select the appropriate speed up item you wish to use with it. There are different types of Speed Ups: Timer Box Speed Up: Speed up your Timer Box opening! Pet Feeding Speed Up: Speed up your Pet Feeding time! Pet Capsule Speed Up: Speed up your Pet Capsule opening! Pet Speed Up: Speed up your Pet Feeding OR Pet Capsule times!

All four types of Speed Ups can be found in the spinner! They may be event rewards sometimes too! Pet Speed Ups can be purchased from the Speed Up page.

Pets are adorable animal pals you can dress up and level up for stats! You can get Pets and pet food in Pet Capsules.

A Pet Capsule is a timer box that gives both Pets and Pet Food. You can findthem when completing parties.

Tap the clock icon on the main screen and swipe over to the Pets tab to access them. Like timer boxes, tap on a capsule to set it counting down. Come back later to open it up! You can speed up the countdown using ECs and Speed Up Tokens.

Your Pets can be managed in your Profile, scroll down to the Pets section, and tap on a pet to view it. The Pet page has three tabs: Info, Level Up and Style Equip one Pet to get its bonus stats. You can rename your Pet any time. Feed Pets to level them up and get extra stats. Swipe over to Style to dress up your pet in different looks.

Feed Pets to level them up. Each pet has special food requirements, depending on their Family, Rarity and Level. When you level up Pets, you sometimes get Pet Supply Boxes. These give special pet foods needed to level up Pets past certain levels. Leveling up pet requires food and time.

Campus chat is where players can hang out with each other! Interact, socialize, trade items, and advertise Clubs -- just to name a few! Tap the chat preview bar at the bottom of the screen and then tap the "Campus" tab to reach campus chat.

It's the latest PIMD chat channel; all social requests (e.g. RP requests, meeting new friends) are now made in The Pub and are no longer allowed on Campus! You can see Pub chat from swiping left from Campus chat.

Your wall is where players can leave public messages for you! You do not need to be friends to leave a message on another player's wall. If you do not want to receive wall messages from a player, please block them from the bottom of their profile. Tap on the people icon on the top right of your home screen, then tap on the 'Wall' tab to see your wall.

A private chat is an unmoderated conversation between you and a friend! You need to be friends before you can privately message someone. If you do not want to receive private messages from a player, you can block them from the bottom of their profile. Since private channels are unmoderated, there is no restriction on what is shared through private messages.

Group chats are like private chats, but with a group! They are private conversations between any group of players you want to gather. Everyone has admin privileges equally in a group chat. Like PMs, group chats are not moderated. Trade is not active in Group Chat.

Go to your Inbox in the Social tab and tap the speech bubble in the bottom right hand corner. Select people to invite into the group chat from your friends list.

Tap the banner at the top of the Shop screen to buy 7 day membership to the VIP Lounge For 7 days, you get the following: 25% extra cash from parties 3x MORE Prize Tokens from video ads or the 'Free Tokens' button Daily Rewards Bundle in your Rewards Inbox containing ECs, DNs, Pim-Keys, and an exclusive VIP Rewards Box If you buy another VIP before your first 7 days of VIP are done, the new days will add on when the first week ends, giving you 14 days of VIP in total.

Subscriptions are plans that give you a special persistent boost to your gameplay experience. Each subscription plan gives a different temporary boost. Subscriptions and their bonuses last for one month unless otherwise specified. They automatically renew unless you cancel them before the end of the current period.

Subscriptions AUTOMATICALLY RENEW unless you turn auto-renew off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period. To view, manage, and cancel your subscriptions, check your Account Settings in iTunes or the Google Play Store.

When you buy certain EC and DN packs from Tess in the Shop, you’ll also get special boxes. One box is given to you, and another box is given to each member of your club at the time you make the purchase. The most commonly seen of these boxes is the Buddy Box! Buddy Boxes can be open from your reward inbox. They usually expire after 24h, so don't forget to collect them!

These boxes contain special avatars, furniture, and combination items. The combo items turn into bigger stat items when you collect enough!

The prize spinner provides players with a method to obtain a number of items for free including Cash, Doctor's Notes, Extra Credits, and more! You can earn free tokens every 3 hours by tapping on the Gift button as well as through watching video ads by tapping the Earn button. Once you have 100 Tokens, you can then tap the Spin button, spin the Prize Spinner, and get your rewards!

Cash is the most common prize in the spinner. The other prizes all have chances of dropping; some are just more rare than others. As the spinner is luck based, the results are up to chance!

Your location, device and provider can all affect the specific videos you have to watch at any given time. Offers are based on time and location and are determined by the provider. If you watch a lot of videos, you may end up watching all the available videos for your specific location, time and provider. If you don’t see any videos to watch, please try again later.

Again, both the device you’re using and the provider can factor into what videos are available. So if your friend is being served more videos than you are, it’s likely due to one or both of these.

This is often due to a connection issue. Please ensure that your internet connection is strong and stable, and that you are connected to a network that has enough bandwidth to support streaming videos.

Temporary issues with network connection or your device may cause viewing problems If this happens, the system will scan for any missed rewards and add the tokens to your balance upon your next collection of tokens 30 minutes after the problem.

The Offer Wall lets you do tasks to earn ECs. Tap the “Earn Free ECs” button in the Shop to access it (found just below the icons for the EC and DN packs). After completing the offer, you will receive the ECs in your Reward Inbox (it may take a few minutes).

You can check the status of your offer through the options menu in the Offer Wall (three horizontal lines on the top left corner). The Offer Wall is run by a third party. As such, we don’t have the necessary data to verify ourselves that you have completed your offers.

Your reward may take some time to arrive! Tapjoy recommends sending them a ticket if you haven't got your reward after 48hours. As we don’t have the necessary data to verify ourselves that you have completed your offers, we would be unable to help you. Please get in contact with the Offer Wall Provider's Support team. Go to the offerwall page, and in the side menu look up the Offerwall FAQ.

Tutors are other players that you can hire to assist you in parties or fights. They provide you with both increased stats and plunder. You can hire many tutors to boost your stats.

Your pupil is the player who has hired you as a tutor. Only one player can hire you as a tutor at any one time, so you can only have one pupil at once.

You can hire tutors from the Tutor section of the game or by tapping the hire button on any player profile. Tutors are a very valuable resource and can be hired away from you at any time.

When a tutor is hired away from you, you receive the original amount you paid as well as a portion of the profit. Hire value is increased as other players hire you as a tutor. A few players hiring you back and forth is called "volleying", and doing this can increase your hire value greatly in a short period of time. DVP, or “drop profit volleying”, is two players hiring a tutor back and forth to a certain amount of in game cash as profit, with the end result of one player keeping the cash and the other player keeping the tutor (and usually being gifted something for their help).

Dormmates give you your base stats (Strength and Intelligence). When you rent a dorm tower room, you’ll be able to select a dormmate to move into it. Some dormmates have more Strength, some are more Intelligence-focused, and some are a balance of the two.

Upgrading dormmates increases the bonus stats the specific dormmate provides you with. You can upgrade an existing dormmate by tapping on it and selecting the Upgrade option. The more cash you spend upgrading a dormmate, the more of a discount you’ll receive when exchanging it for a higher tier dormmate later.

When you exchange a dormmate for a higher tier dormmate, you are charged an exchange fee based on the amount of in-game cash you've already spent on this dormmate to hire and upgrade it.

Your misc stats are the stat bonuses you get from things like stat items. Of these, there are static bonuses (specific numbers) and percentage bonuses. You can view your total misc stats at the bottom of your Profile.

You can only utilize up to a certain amount of misc static bonus, based on your raw stats, your tutors and your RS Bonus. This amount is your “misc cap”. Your raw stats are determined by your dormmates. So, as you upgrade and hire stronger dormmates, you can use more of your misc bonuses too.

They are volunteers from the player community who work with ATA staff to keep PIMD a safe gaming environment They also help players with game knowledge questions, and are active and positive influences in the community. Their name in Campus and Pub chat is green.

These are special crates with an item for each mod, designed by the mods themselves. Mods sometimes run contests, events, and activities, and will give mod crates as rewards for these.

Honor students are nominated by the devs. They are players known for helping others and being active and positive within the community. They do not have the extra powers or responsibilities of mods. Their text in campus and Pub chat is light blue.

When a player is silenced their ability to communicate through public channels in the game is disabled. Developers, Moderators, and members of our Support team issue a silence when a player violates the game’s Terms of Use or Code of Conduct, found here: http://www.partyinmydorm.com/tos.html

Inappropriate Content: Posting obscene, pornographic, excessively violent, harmful, or sexually explicit content. This includes using emoji’s to create inappropriate art or messages. Spamming: In general spamming is only silenceable if it is done with the intent to disrupt chat negatively or harass other's. Spamming as a Group Posting the same or similar messages repeteadly by different individuals with the intent to disrupt chat negatively or harass others. Encouraging spam-type messages to disrupt chat negatively. Bypassing: Intentionally circumventing our chat filters to post a message that would have been otherwise censored. Harassment: Posting messages or engaging in actions that discriminate, promote hate, violence, or advocate hatred or discrimination against individuals, groups, races, cultures, or organizations. Impersonation: Falsely presenting yourself as a moderator, a member of the development or support teams or another player. False Information: Spreading false information with the intent of misleading other players or disrupting gameplay. Personal Information: Posting or soliciting personally identifying information in a public channel. Third Party Content: Posting links to referral programs or other third party applications not created by A Thinking Ape. Encouraging Abuse: Encouraging other players to post content in violation of our Terms of Use If you are looking for more clarification check out our forum post HERE.

Silences operate on a tiered system. After a player has been silenced, they will move up a tier, and the next silence they receive will be of a longer duration. However, after a player has been unsilenced their silence Tier will decrease by ONE for each 30 days they go without an additional silence. Tier 1: 1 day Tier 2: 7 days Tier 3: 30 days We reserve the right to deviate from this policy at our discretion in extreme situations.

If you have questions about a silence given, you can contact Support directly through in game help. Please note that you can be silenced for anything that we determine to be inappropriate in our public channels (world chat, walls and status messages). For more information, please view the Terms of Use here: http://www.partyinmydorm.com/tos.html

If you would like to report any incidents of inappropriate behaviour in public channels in PIMD (world chat, walls, statuses, usernames, club names and descriptions), please message Support through in game help. In your message, please mention the usernames of those involved, what was said, and when and where in game it occurred. Please note that private channels (such as PMs, gift notes and club chat) are not moderated in the same way. For these, it’s best to block the player (for personal communication) or speak with your club (for club chat). Some club roles can also silence members for 1 hour in club chat specifically.
