Networking with other users
In Breakroom, networking is everything. Learn how to curate your contact list, join and create in-world groups, and turn your user profile into your digital calling card.
Overview
Breakroom's networking tools are designed to help you make the most of the very real relationships forged in your virtual World. By combining the power of your user profile, the People window, and the Groups window, you can:
Make it easy for other users to access your professional information
Build a contact list to facilitate in-world communication
Create groups in order to promote networking, organize events, or control access to specific areas
On this page, we'll explain how to locate your user profile and edit your personal details. In the sections that follow, we'll explore the People and Groups windows in more detail.
World Owners and World Administrators can enable and disable parts of the UI via the Dashboard. You may not have access to every function described in this section.
Accessing your user profile
You can open your own user profile by clicking the Profile icon in the bottom toolbar, or by pressing the F12 key on your keyboard.
Editing your user profile
In Breakroom, user profiles function much like virtual business cards or employee badges. When you access a user profile, including your own, the first thing you'll see is the Details tab. This tab contains helpful information that you may want others to know, such as:
Your job title
Your location
Links to your social media pages
Your activities and interests
You can edit these fields at any time by clicking the Edit buttons. An animated headshot of your avatar is also included, and will automatically update to reflect your avatar's current appearance.
In addition to the information listed on the Details tab, when other users view your profile they can navigate to:
The Photos tab, which showcases any snapshots you've chosen to make public.
The Regions tab, which displays all of the Regions that you own.
The Wearing tab, which lists the avatar components that you're wearing.
The Badges tab, which lists your achievement badges.
Other users will also see options to send you a direct message or in-world email, remove you from their People list, or send a teleport invite or request.
Accessing another user's profile
To view another user's profile, click on their avatar and select View Profile in the action menu that appears. You can also search for a specific person using the search field, or click on a user's name in your People list.
