Terms of Service

Friends of Speranza

Last updated: January 2026

Welcome to Friends of Speranza (“Friends of Speranza,” “we,” “us,” or “the service”). By accessing or using this site, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the service. No hard feelings. "Friendly, friendly!" and extract. EZ

What Friends of Speranza Is

Friends of Speranza is a community-driven web application intended to surface and celebrate positive, interesting, or memorable player interactions in ARC Raiders. It is not an official Epic Games product, enforcement tool, or reputation system.

We are here for vibes, context, and reflection. Not punishment. Not leaderboards of shame.

Why Friends of Speranza Exists

Friends of Speranza highlights players who make the shared game world richer by:

This includes, without preference or hierarchy:

Friends of Speranza may also reflect low-interaction or extraction-only behavior. This is not a judgment or a punishment. It is context. Not every encounter is a story moment, and that’s fine.

The service is designed to capture how encounters felt, not to assign moral value, enforce playstyles, or crown heroes and villains. If you are looking for validation, condemnation, or a digital wanted poster, this is probably not the place.

If you are looking to understand why some moments linger longer than others, welcome in.

Eligibility

You must be legally permitted to use the service in your jurisdiction and comply with the terms of any third-party services you use to authenticate (for example, Epic Games, Steam, or Discord).

Accounts and Authentication

Friends of Speranza uses third-party authentication providers. You are responsible for maintaining access to at least one linked login method if you wish to continue using the service.

You may link or disconnect supported login providers through account settings when available. Disconnecting all login methods may result in loss of access to your account.

Acceptable Use

By using Friends of Speranza, you agree not to:

Friends of Speranza is built around interaction, agency, and context. It is not a courtroom, a leaderboard of shame, or a place to settle scores.

This is a video game. It is made of pixels. Treat in-game encounters as such.

Content or behavior that treats gameplay moments as real-world offenses, or that attempts to turn subjective experiences into objective judgments about a person, may be removed or restricted at our discretion.

In short: don’t take it so seriously that you forget why people log in.

User-Submitted Content

Any data you submit is your responsibility. While Friends of Speranza is designed around structured inputs rather than free text, you agree that:

We reserve the right to remove content or restrict access if necessary to protect the integrity of the site or its users.

No Endorsement or Verification

Friends of Speranza does not verify the accuracy of user-submitted data and does not endorse any individual, group, or playstyle.

All content reflects subjective player experiences. Interpret accordingly. Context matters. Extraction happens.

Third-Party Services

Friends of Speranza relies on third-party platforms for authentication and infrastructure. We are not responsible for outages, policy changes, or ARC-level catastrophes caused by those services.

Your use of third-party services is governed by their respective terms.

Intellectual Property

All site content, design, and branding related to Friends of Speranza is owned by Friends of Speranza unless otherwise stated.

ARC Raiders and related trademarks are the property of their respective owners. Friends of Speranza is a fan project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Epic Games.

Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the service at our discretion, including for violations of these Terms or actions that harm the community or the service.

You may stop using the service at any time. Account deletion options are provided where available.

Disclaimer

Friends of Speranza is provided “as is.” We make no guarantees regarding uptime, data accuracy, or uninterrupted access.

We will try to keep things working. Sometimes things break. Sometimes that’s life in Speranza.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Friends of Speranza shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the service.

Changes to These Terms

These Terms may be updated from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date. Continued use of the service after changes means you accept the updated terms.

No stealth patches. If we change the rules, we’ll say so.
