## Events in Hubs

-
Hubs is a platform where you can create private rooms and meet with friends in a 3D environment online. Hubs rooms are capped at a room capacity of 24 users, but this limit can be increased to 30. Additional people can also view the room content from the room lobby. Client performance is an important consideration with Hubs, and it will vary based on the devices that your attendees are connecting with. Mobile devices (phones, standalone headsets) may have performance challenges when there are more than 10 people in an individual room.

If you are interested in hosting a large event with multiple tracks, you may be interested in exploring [Hubs Cloud](./hubs-cloud-getting-started). Hubs Cloud allows you to customize your deployment of the Hubs platform, so that you manage and maintain the system, offers configuration tools for rooms and accounts, and is better suited for larger events. For events that have larger participant interest, we recommend creating several viewing rooms and streaming the primary content to a service like [Twitch](https://twitch.tv)

## Setting up a Room
22
-
Your event will need a room, which can be created from the home page at [hubs.mozilla.com](https://hubs.mozilla.com). When you create a room, you are the room's "owner", which grants you full rights and permissions within the room you have created. We recommend that you log in with a Hubs account when you create rooms, since this will ensure that you are still recorded as the room owner even if you change devices. Logged-in room owners have additional configuration tools available to them that will allow for more nuanced control over how visitors can interact in the space.

When you create a room as a signed-in user, you can save the room to your favorites list. Rooms that you have favorited appear on the home page when you're signed in to hubs.mozilla.com. This is a helpful way to save links to rooms that you want to return to. By default, rooms stay open until they are explicitly closed by the room owner or a moderator, and once rooms are closed, they cannot be re-opened.

You can specify whether users in the room are able to create and move objects, pin content, and draw with the pen. To set these for your Hubs room, click the menu icon, select 'Room Settings', and toggle the permissions that you want to set. By default, users can create and move objects, pin content, draw, and create cameras. Removing these permissions can help keep rooms performant, and reduces the likelihood that someone will bring content into the room that is undesirable.

## Choosing a Scene

With Hubs, you can create your own scenes to use as the environment for your rooms. Any scene can be used to create multiple rooms, and you can [remix existing scenes that have been shared with a Creative Commons license in Spoke](./intro-spoke.html) to make edits and personalize spaces. For events, we've provided a few example scenes below to get you started.

By default, Hubs rooms [are private, available only to people who you share the url with](https://blog.mozvr.com/creating-privacy-centric-virtual-spaces/). When planning an event with Hubs, it's important to consider who you want to invite, and only share the link with the attendees you want to have in the space with you. Keep in mind that those attendees will also be able to share the URL, so communicate whether or not how private you would like your event to remain.

### Discord Integration
51
-
For an additional authentication mechanic, you can use [Discord](https://discordapp.com) and our [Hubs Discord Bot](https://hubs.mozilla.com/discord) to create rooms. This will require that users are a) a member of your Discord server, b) allowed in the channel the room has been bound to and c) signed in before they can access the Hubs room.

### Embedded Rooms
56

You can also embed rooms that you own into an existing webpage via an iframe. For larger events that have multiple rooms open at the same time, it can be helpful to embed rooms into a central location to help people find occupied rooms and enter from a single location.

## Moderation & Event Controls
59
59
If your event is semi-public or public, you should have a moderation strategy in place. The following links explain the tools that are available to you as the room creator, and how to promote trusted users in the room to also be moderators to help manage a space. Generally, for events that are open to a semi-trusted or anonymous audience, we recommend having multiple moderators to help manage the space. Please keep in mind that anyone who has access to the room link will be able to enter your room unless you have configured the Discord authentication mechanism, or are running a configured Hubs Cloud instance.
If you are using the Discord Bot for moderation, you can remove a user permanently by revoking their Discord account from being able to access to the specific channel that is used for the Hubs room, or by removing them from your server.
