Do you think this system is considered a mod? I didn't really get the idea of it. ~Sonic 23:07, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
- No, it's an addon type of thing that allows one to coach another student ingame. Completely legitimate.
Fyahweather 13:28, 19 April 2011 (UTC) - According to Escapist Magazine, and confirmed by Valve, the system was initially developed for DOTA2, but naturally it is being tested in TF2.

Suggestion/Critique
As NVis points out in the revision history, suggestions and critique should not be in the bug section. Is there any objection to creating a suggestions section? Sloth 05:09, 30 June 2011 (PDT)
- Unfortunately feedback discussion is out of the article's scope. While your points are valid, I feel they are more suited for the Steam Forums. —

Loudspeaker / Headset button
My view of the 'be a coach' button is of a loudspeaker but the page has just been changed to reflect a button depicting a headset. Can anyone confirm that the button is a headset or confirm that it is a loudspeaker, please? - Sloth 12:47, 15 August 2011 (PDT)
