At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that are configured to, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- establish, in an interactive computing environment operating, at least one first user of a first group with a first user access type for managing communications between users of the first group, wherein the first user access type is configured to allow the at least one first user of the first group to communicate directly via the interactive computing environment with at least one second user of the first group having a second user access type in the interactive computing environment and at least one third user of the first group having a third user access type in the interactive computing environment, wherein the second user access type is configured to permit the at least one second user of the first group to identify the at least one third user of the first group based on identification parameters and a relationship between the at least one third user of the first group and the at least one first user of the first group in the interactive computing environment, and wherein the third user access type is configured to prevent the at least one third user of the first group from directly communicating with the at least one second user of the first group in the interactive computing environment without an approval of the at least one first user of the first group;
- establish, in the interactive computing environment, at least one first user of a second group with the first user access type for managing communications between users of the second group, wherein the first user access type is configured to allow the at least one first user of the second group to communicate directly via the interactive computing environment with at least one second user of the second group having the second user access type in the interactive computing environment and at least one third user of the second group having the third user access type in the interactive computing environment, wherein the second user access type is configured to permit the at least one second user of the second group to identify the at least one third user of the second group based on identification parameters and a relationship between the at least one third user of the second group and the at least one first user of the second group in the interactive computing environment, and wherein the third user access type is configured to prevent the at least one third user of the second group from directly communicating with the at least one second user of the second group in the interactive computing environment without an approval of the at least one first user of the second group;
- determine, based on the first user access type, that the at least one first user of the first group and the at least one first user of the second group are permitted to communicate or determine, based on the third user access type, that the at least one third user of the first group and the at least one third user of the second group are permitted to communicate or determine, based on the second user access type, that the at least one second user of the first group and the at least one second user of the second group are permitted to communicate;
- and
- receive a communication from the at least one first user of the first group to the at least one first user of the second group or receive a communication from the at least one third user of the first group to the at least one third user of the second group or receive a communication from the at least one second user of the first group to the at least one second user of the second group.
