What is...
The Agora is the place where some chosen players can come and ask the MOD and BB team questions, open discussions about specific topics (such as moderation, rules or community mood) with the team, and share their thoughts and experience in order to make the game more enjoyable for all of us.
Through this process we hope to publicly address the hottest, most important or most controversial topics of the time in a controlled and calm fashion.
How to become...
If you wish to become a public speaker, please ask your favorite Moderator. Explain to him/her why you would like to become a Public speaker and what qualities you have that would help us choose you.
Be warned, it's the moderators choice to present you or not to the moderation team as a possible public speaker: make sure the moderator knows you from previous actions within the TSO community. Also, being an active member of the community, being calm and diplomatic, being mature and open to discussion are all qualities we expect from our Public Speakers.
The rules...
The basic rules are simple: be objective, be calm, be understanding, if you don't agree then do it in a constructive manner. Please do not denounce players or mods: point out a general mistake and give a constructive counter-measure.
If we respect these rules, we should be able to bring significant and long-term improvement to the game and the community.
Thank you,
