How to be Security πŸ›‘οΈ

Volunteering at an event as @Event Security involves several key steps:

Security at an event

πŸ“ Sign Up for the Event​

When volunteering for an event, you'll be helping the @Event Host for the event's duration. Default length is 2 hours β€” if the host says otherwise, plan for that length.

β„ΉSignup Format

Add Security or (Security) to your signup message in the event's signup thread.

Example: lolmaxz (Security)

πŸ‘‹ Introduce Yourself to New Members​

βœ“First Impressions Matter

You will often meet new people, so it's important that you introduce yourself to help event goers find a safe spacei.

Try your best to ensure no one stays in their corner alone and feeling excluded. While the @Event Host is also encouraged to prevent this while entertaining members, as security you play a crucial role in creating an inclusive atmosphere.

πŸ“’ Announce Your Role​

πŸ›‘οΈRegular Security

When an event is announced, add (security) next to your signup name in the appropriate signup thread.

Example: username (security)

πŸ‘οΈShadowing/Training

If you are shadowing another security, add (shadow) next to your name to indicate you're there for training.

Example: username (shadow)

πŸŽ‰ Keep the Party Going!​

🀝Support the Host

  • Assist the @Event Host in ensuring the event runs smoothly
  • Help maintain a positive experience for all attendees
  • Welcome joining players during the event to make them feel included
  • You do not need to re-announce the full event rules to late joiners β€” welcome them, and point them to the Discord event post / rules if they ask

πŸ‘₯Team Support

Provide support to other @Event Security team members when incidents occur.

Private rooms may be locked

Attendees may lock or leave private rooms unlocked. Do not force rooms open. If someone has a problem in a locked room, they should come to you or open an Event‑Talk ticket β€” respond when issues are reported. Etiquette for joining a room: ring the bell once; leave them alone if there is no answer or a β€œno.”

⚠️ Vigilance Required!

Always prioritize the reporting event goers' safety. You're the most important person to any attendee with a problem, and we want to show the love! πŸ’œ

🚨 Incident Management​
