Live Events Auditorium Server:

The Auditorium Server is used to host live events, usually featuring a celebrity or special guest. These “Auditorium-Style” chats occur in a controlled environment where the special guest interacts with the audience through a screener and/or Moderator who reviews and posts questions submitted by the group. All participants see the questions the Moderator presents to the guest, and the guest’s responses. Live events can also include a static photo of the guest or even live video!
