Event Theory

Events in groups are typically repetitive, nonsensical, and no fun in general. EAF aims to fix these problems by instilling a certain mentality in event hosts to prevent poor events, and promote event attendance. This document will cover the following:
1. Event Growth
2. Event Engagement
3. Event Diversity
4. Host Maturity/Control

EVENT GROWTH

All events in EAF should be hosted with a mentality of growth. You are so much more than an event host. You are a leader. You are a teacher. You are an example.
DO NOT:
-Train others in something you are not confident and proficient in
-Host an event with minimal interaction between attendees

DO:
-Encourage Questions
-Cater to the group of people you’re hosting for. Ensure that experienced members gain just as much from the event as inexperienced ones.
-Leverage the knowledge and expertise of experienced members to lessen your workload and give them an opportunity to learn by teaching
-Encourage everyone in the event to get to know each other, interact, and grow closer as friends. Ask about their day, tell them about yourself and vice versa, get a feel for what sort of role they’d assume in the group.

EVENT ENGAGEMENT

Both Training AND social events should be engaging, fun, and provide a better group of people than what you started with.

Events cannot be engaging if the host does not have any contingencies for if the event falls through, or a “Plan B”. If the raid you planned falls through, have an alternate lined up. If the game you play ends up boring most of the players, have a second one lined up. Have an alternate host on standby in case anything happens and you cannot continue. You hosting good events will heavily encourage people to take you seriously and attend events more, it will also make your experience more enjoyable.

EVENT DIVERSITY

Any game on roblox can be used for events. Do not forget this. Furthermore, do not underestimate using our own base for events, which comes with a plethora of benefits including increased recruitment.

HOST MATURITY/CONTROL

As a host, you must keep your composure. This is easier said than done, but ensure that those you are in charge of understand that there is a time for work and a time for play. Do not let them run over you and make a mockery of your training.
