Team Collaboration

Share server management with others. Invite team members, assign permissions, and collaborate effectively.

Why Use Teams?

  • Share the workload - Multiple people can manage the server
  • Grant limited access - Give helpers view-only or edit access
  • Build communities - Staff members can assist with management
  • Stay organized - Clear roles and responsibilities

Only the server owner can invite and manage team members.
