Newbie Training

pebblestar-nightclan • 10 June 2012 at 11:51 AM

Hello, everybody, and welcome to Newbie Training! Here, you can join and be assigned a "newbie" to be your "apprentice." Basically, what you do is find a "newbie" in the Welcomes and Introductions that hasn't already been taken, welcome them, and contact me if it is alright to train them, which I don't see why it wouldn't be.
You must teach then about pinging, how to get around, trading, rarities, about the Travel Agency, about the Adoption Center, everything there is to know about Egg Cave.

After you think your "newbie" is ready, get them a test ready, and PM me saying you think they're ready before the task is done.
In the task, there must be:

*A forum pinging both their mentor and myself.
*Naming one or two creatures of what you could trade for a (insert random creature name here). They should put this in their forum.
*Getting a random common travel and putting it on one of their creatures of their choice. (THEY must do this.)
*PM me saying they've done it! (THEY must do this, not the mentor.)

Rules:
*The "newbie" you want doesn't have to agree to do this. You must both agree on partnership.
*When it comes to the test, they do NOT have to buy a travel if they don't want to waste their EC, but if you really want them to pass it, you must lend some EC to them. They don't have to do that part if they don't want to.
*Be KIND TO YOUR APPRENTICE!
*You are only trying to teach them about Egg Cave! You may NOT order them around.

If you want to sign up, all you have to do is ping me. When you find a "newbie" you want, just PM me and also make sure it is okay with them. Please remember that this program is just to help some of the newer users learn how to get around the site better. If they never learn, they leave the site, thinking it's boring. I am also trying to help the population of the site.

If you disobey a rule to this forum, you will be terminated from the program, and your apprentice will be taken in by another user.
Yes, there are actually rankings in this system. It depends on how many "newbies" of yours have passed.

Ranks:
Apprentice- Trained 1-2 "newbies"
Trainer- Trained 3-5 "newbies"
Mentor- Trained 6-10 "newbies"
Expert- Trained 11-16 "newbies"
Master- Trained 17 or more "newbies"

Rankings:
(none)

Graduates:
(none)

I guess I forgot to mention that once you have a graduate, you will grant them a hatched common. 😊 So, before you consider having them take the test, ask them which common egg is their favorite. If you can not provide it to them, I may be able to, but please try. It's always better to have the mentor gift it to them.
Anyways, also bond with your apprentice. Ask them their favorite songs, colors, animals, etc. You could become really good friends!

I would love to join, and I found an apprentice that I would like to mentor. I asked him/her if I could mentor her/him.
