The Graal Communication Center is the official forum of Graal Online.

The official name is Graal Communication Center (reserved for gold and vip subscribers), but no one but Unixmad uses it.

Structure

The forum is currently divided into GCC:Sections: the GCC:General Section, GCC:Gold Section, GCC:3D Section, GCC:Playerworlds Section, GCC:Development Section and GCC:Private Section. Each section holds multiple GCC:Subforums.

A oversized moderation force with not equally balanced qualification is moderating the Graal Communication Center. Some [[GCC:Moderator]s moderate one or more individual subforums or a whole forum section. Some subforums are not moderated directly, and more interesting ones are overseen by multiple moderators. Spark911 and Moon Goddess are still GCC:Super Moderators, and thus should be fairly moderating the whole Communication Center.

Access

This forum is, at the time of writing, only available to Gold and VIP accountholders, although plans to open it to Classic Accounts are in the works for Christmas.

It is againsts the GCC:Rules of the forums to post messages from or for non-members of the forums. This is to prevent Account sharing, which was very common in the forum's past and arguably had a negative influence on the motivation to buy a Gold account.

Neutrality

Unsurprisingly, the forums are very biased towards the Graal administration. Sadly, the Forum administration considers it neccessary to enforce this bias with rules that make any kind of critism a banworthy action. Thus, it is not possilbe to discuss GCC:Bans, actions of Graal Online considered harmful or unfair, or shortcomings of the adminstration including Playerworld staff or the Gold servers.

Luckily, the most conservative moderators seem to have grown increasingly ignorant of these issues.
