What are Communities in Playbox?

A community is the home of an organizer’s games and players in Playbox. Every game belongs to one community, and the community page collects its upcoming games, game history, leaderboards, description and chats.

There are two types, set in the community settings (gear icon), “General”, “Community type”:

• “Public”: open to everyone. Nobody joins a public community and there is no Join button: anyone, even without an account, can open it, see its games and join those games.

• “Private”: only its participants see the games, people, leaderboards and history. Others see only the name, avatar, cover, city and number of participants, and tap “Request to join”; the owner or an admin approves each request. Opening the link never lets anyone in directly.

The page has the tabs “Hub” (upcoming games, leaders, event history) and “About” (description with clickable links, page link with “Share link”, admins, performance stats, “Chats and socials”). Private communities also have “Participants”.

Roles: Owner, Admin, participant. Create one from your Profile, “Communities”, “Create a community”. You also get ” Community” automatically with your first game; rename it in settings, “General” (the link stays the same).
