Below you will find an overview of the departments that are installed to run the Cantr game. If you have questions, comments or suggestions about the game, please use our contact page. It will be appreciated if you first check which department comes closest to your question and then write to that department instead of writing immediately to the Support Departments. Do you have bugs to report? Please visit our bug report system. If you want to help in running the game, that is of course very much appreciated. In this case please use our application form.

Public Relations Department This department has three main purposes: Social outreach, marketing, and social moderation. As Cantr is a global game played by people of many languages, the PR department employs translators and language group Liaison Officers to facilitate good communication between the language groups and staff. Translators are responsible for translating ingame texts and global announcements, and for assisting other departments in communications with players. Liaison Officers manage administrative tasks for their language groups, such as the hiring of staff, and also communicate the language group's needs to the GAB (and vice-verse). Marketers are tasked with promoting Cantr within their language group. Finally, moderators ensure compliance with the rules within Cantr's social media (forum, irc, wiki, etc). Members of this department can specialize, or perform as many functions as they are comfortable with. Contact this department
