Adopt a noobie!

Basically this really involves the GC

Each Player who wants to takes a newbie under their wing, and protects them and shows them the ropes for 3-6 months until that person knows what they are doing.

Have a specific section of the forum made for applicants to apply for a mentor

Awards can be determined but would need to be highly maintained by feed back and goals achieved in game


Just my 2c and adaption on a legends idea

Have jason send a link in an e-mail/ Ingame PM to all new people to a specific place on the forum where they can find themselves a "protector" (The established players would have to adhere to a set of rules that could be made later, such as respectful conversation ability and so on) . Then we would get every major alliance ingame to agree that for the best interests of the game these new players should be dealt with impartially and so if they happen to hit the wrong person once or twice, or happen to lose there rag due to being so far behind and so on, there consequences would not be "quit game threatening" . For offering there services and to increase membership, the established players who are looking after the newbs would be given a yearly Gift, Such as an extra planet slot, or a lump sum of naq , or an extra MS tech level, the possibilities are pretty endless.

Now if you are all that concerned you will go about improveing that idea and implimenting it.

Problem Solved, we can all stop complaining and start solutioning! :-D

Re: Adopt a noobie!

NB : This idea comes from the concern many GateWars players have that too many new players come into the game, get beaten up or see its going to be very hard to do well and just give up and leave, meaning the blood pool is less and less. We all know the game membership has dropped a few hundred in recent years, and as such we think this is a good place to start, by Constructing a way forward, not just complaining. Of course it would involve jason himself, as we would need an e-mail/Ingame PM system in place for all new accounts telling them about this service. So an Auto E-mail, A new forum section, and a whole lot of love from all the big alliances and players, is all that we need.

Afterall, the more players, the better the game!

Re: Adopt a noobie!

some people in top 2k ranks are **Filtered** at the game... they also might not want to give up their income for the miniscule UP. not everyone is a kind person in this game remember. and it would be harsh on the nooby if they get some *Filtered*, or someone who would get them massed constantly through war. wouldnt really hit the goal of keeping them in the game...
