Chorus battles (CBs for short) are basically online singing competitions where vocalists, artists, mixers, and motion graphic animators come together to form teams and create entries that will be critiqued by the judging panel of each respective competition. Most CBs require participants to upload their entries on either YouTube or Smule. You can find examples of them on our public Trello board, CB Listings.

The best ways to advertise a chorus battle is by creating accounts on social media platforms such as Twitter and promoting it through individual servers on Discord. You can also submit a response to our Feature Request Form with information about your respective CB and we'll create a card for it on our public Trello board, CB Listings. We also have exclusive roles within our public Discord server for both organizers and judges that grant access to a promotional chat where you can promote your own chorus battle. However, you have to ask one of our staff members for these roles.

Many people within the Youtaite community usually ask friends or post on social media using hashtags in order to help them form teams. You can also find people through and/or add yourself to an organized spreadsheet for each chorus battle that you are planning to participate in.

We highly recommend reading this incomplete guide to running a chorus battle and participating in chorus battles before taking on the challenge of organizing your own.

Yes, but you must follow our recruitment terms that states that you must wait 3-4 days after the initial/most recent post before reposting again. That applies to both teams that you're recruiting for.

We ban pedophiles and abusers from our public Discord server after receiving reports from our members and partners. We also won't accept partnership applications from servers that are run by such individuals.

If you're having issues with another user or noticed an issue within our public Discord server, either submit a response to our Safety Report Form or contact us through ModMail so that we can take the appropriate measures to deal with them.

You can fill out the CBC Feedback Survey. Our staff team will review the responses that we receive through it and implement any necessary changes based on them. All responses to this survey are automatically logged in our Fan Suggestions board. If you want to provide feedback regarding our blog, feel free to submit a response to the CBC Reader Survey.

No. Chorus Battle Central is a community that largely revolves around connecting participants of chorus battles to others with similar interests, with the intent to increase chorus battle participation and awareness.

Unfortunately, you have to talk in our public Discord server in order to be considered active, especially outside of our recruitment and promotional chats.

Consensus is that the content of the song matters more than where it's from. If the song itself is clean, even if it's from, like, an eroge or something, and your project is clean, you can recruit in #regular-recruitment or (or #cb-recruitment if it's for a CB) instead of #nsfw-recruitment.

That depends on the amount of free time that our staff team has available to spend on keeping up with CB information. This also applies to the other boards under our public Trello team.

One of our Administrators suggested turning it into a blog series after we ran into production issues while trying to get CBC Spotlight up and running as a podcast.

You just have to fill out the CBC Spotlight Interview Signup Form.

You'll receive the following via DM on social media or Discord: A link to another Google form containing the interview questions. A request for a high quality image of yourself to feature on the blog post. A draft of your interview in Google Docs for approval prior to scheduling content. Also, past and present interviewees will be given access to a private text channel in our public Discord server where they can ask questions and interact with each other.

CBC Spotlight is about shining a light on content creators within the Youtaite community.

We do that so our members can afford to purchase them regardless of their financial situation.

We host watch parties, karaoke calls, AMAs/Q&As, and our annual Secret Santa event. You can check our public Trello board, CBC Event Calender, to stay up-to-date on server events.

Because we want to give all of our participants enough time to work on their gifts.

Yes!

So that the staff team can keep track of who has given a gift and vice versa.

A Youtaite tour is a type of casual event where members of the Youtaite community work together to create new content based around a theme. All of the content created for the tour is usually uploaded to YouTube during a specific period of time and complied into a single playlist by the organizer. You can find examples on our public Trello board, Youtaite Events.

The best ways to advertise a Youtaite tour is by creating accounts on social media platforms such as Twitter and promoting it through individual servers on Discord. You can submit a response to our Feature Request Form with information about the event and we'll create a card for it on our public Trello board, Youtaite Events. We also have an exclusive role within our public Discord server that grants access to a promotional chat where you can promote your own Youtaite tour. However, you have to ask one of our staff members for it.

Applications for the positions listed on our job board are open indefinitely.

There are three reasons for this: We've had issues with former staff members in the past who were under 18. All of our current staff members are 18+. Moderators have to moderate NSFW channels.

We provide access to a curated library full of content on various topics like the CBC Resource Library.

You'll be given the staff role that you applied for in our public Discord server, exclusive access to our private Trello & Canva teams, etc. Our bot, CBCRadio, will automatically send a message in our staff-only chat.

Because we need to verify that you are not a troll looking to raid our public Discord server for shits and giggles. All we require you to do is read our rules and fill out the verification form. Doing so will allow our staff team to grant you access to all of our text and voice chats.

Yes, but you risk being misgendered by our staff team, members, etc.

Yes, that's okay. Social media is optional, but it helps us to verify someone's identity during verification.

Only a staff member can reset your account's password in case you've completely forgotten it.

No, the server needs to be complete and have been around for at least a few days before it's eligible for partnership. It's because we need to know how the server operates.

Partners enjoy the following privileges: Access to a private category with text and voice chats for each partner within our public Discord server. An exclusive role for each partner's staff team. A public text chat where they can advertise their own events and projects. An invitation to a private Trello workspace with one board called the Partner Program HQ underneath it. An invitation to a private Canva team that allows them to create & share graphics for future collaborative events. The ability to publish guest posts on our blog about topics related to the Youtaite community. An exclusive badge that is only given to partners if they've signed up to become a site member of our website.

The goal of our partnership program is to help strengthen the Youtaite community by forming connections between servers and other entities that support artists and give them a platform.

You'll receive a direct message (DM) on Discord from one of our staff members, an invite to our public Discord server if you're not already a member of it, and a link to your server's partnership contract.

It can take a few days or longer since our staff team has to join each Discord server that applied for partnership and hold discussions together. We'll schedule an interview with their owner(s) through Doodle before we decide to accept any server into the program.

Yes. Having a partnership contract with us doesn't mean that you are forced to only collaborate with our staff team and partners.

Not at the moment.

We remove them from the Partners page, our partner-exclusive Trello team, etc.
