High Ranked Tutor Poll - READ THEN VOTE please

So i was wondering through the idea's and suggestions forum when i saw 2 threads called :

-The Guardian System - Peanut

-Need more videos in youtube for afterwind beginers guide steps by Van Helsing


And they all had some sort of link to helping new or lower ranked players.

So what I'm planning to do is make a sort of Community, where High Ranked Players can help Low Ranked Players.
Each Low Ranked player will be assigned to a high ranked player, who will be their Tutor from that day on. Whenever that Tutor Decides that the Low Ranked player has learned enough and there is no need for him to train any further, then he can end the tutorial training with him/her.

I'm Going to be starting this soon, but I need Confirmation that the Afterwind Society wants this.

If this goes on, then my next step will be getting High Ranks (that are good) to sign up to the plan, and then I will see where it goes from there.

Thanks

I meant Lower Ranked people that want to be helped ***

I've been doing this for a while

If you really cared you wouldn't have even done a poll. Write a guide.

I wanted to skip but, somepeople don't like this idea, and some people do so... I will get back asap to this thread. I still need more to vote though

It's a good idea and i would support you.

but isn't this the job of the coalition to train their members?

I will happey to help lower rank.

This is already done just not officially. Still, I suppose this is a good idea. If it is done I would prefer it be something done officially by Ivan & Amok. For example more experienced players could have a part of their profile that shows players they are training. Idk, just throwing around ideas.

Just do it and stop looking to get credit for it.

Most of us have tried helping others before. Fruit has helped me many times, I've helped players, everyone helps players somehow. Why do we need a system for this? All it would do is boost people already wack ego's and make helping people a contest instead of a kind gesture. If you help someone and their thanks isn't enough, I suggest making a guide we need so that everyone can thank you for contributing/helping out ^_^

I agree 100%

This is what coalitions are for. Good idea but this process is already going around no need to improve or make system out of it. There are other priorities.

Huh, just saw this. Here's my post on the unbelievably stupid idea of a "guardian" system:

This is a really bad idea. No-one wants handholding, and most guardians would be motivated by SP, not actually helping their "apprentices".

Anyway, this should not be built into the game. If you need someone to help you out, maybe just make a forum post about it. Why not setu p a buddying scheme? I know a couple of MMOs that have something like this, basically you post on the forums and someone becomes your "mentor" if they want. It is quite successful. But for God's sake, you cannot build something like this into the game, keep it a social feature.

The second part is the significant part. Having seen this model work before, I am certain this can work here. It's not an original idea, but it's a system that definitely works.

To add-on, best thing to do (as a new player), would be to ask a higher-ranked player for tips and get friendly with him/her. If they like you, you could ask if they could be your mentor or something along those lines. I can say my mentor was Sificvoid and Pinheiro, without them I would have never been at least decent at this game. A Mentor can change a lot, but we do not need a system for it. Join a coalition, or pull your head up (In other words, don't be shy) and ask someone for help! Just do not make a bad impression of yourself. Hope I made some sense here.

This

I would have no problem helping other players with how to play. Its honestly no fun when your not challenged. But my ways are highly complex to implement in every game unless they meet certain conditions. I'm also developing a style of play using Blitzkrieg that so far is doing well. (murking Imp players easily.) Best country for a Blitz player in Europe is without a doubt Ukraine.

I didn't read all the posts, but what if there were designated trainers (like mods) maybe 10-15 and try to hold training sessions at a set time and day every week?

There are only about 5 rank 10's and up lol. Maybe you should set the rank a bit lower to lets say 8. Right now rank 8 seems to be the skill level with all players of this rank at least being somewhat good at AW. I'm not saying all rank 8's are good just alot.

LOL no i mean 10-15 people obv they would be at least rank 8

Guys, you don't see the point. There is absolutely no reason to make simple acts of kindness a business. If you want to hold training sessions, make a clan; they already do just that. New players just need to politely ask someone for help.

Pretty much what I was saying but in three sentences.
