The Mentors and Trainers Hub

[Kylarnatia]

This looks nice, and I'd like to be a Trainer. But I don't know exactly what they do. Do they have RPs with newbies, and show them the ropes through that? Help them construct storefronts, factbooks, and RPs?

Anyway, a resume:

F&NI:
I have six factbooks in my sig, and a seventh will be added.

II:
The Great Crusade
Songnam War
Im Zeichen Des Zodiak
Ultimate RP 1.0
The Consotrium
Our Last Stand
And may, many more.

GE&T
I actually have no experience here.

General
Numerous political "discussions"/ pissing matches

A&F
I'vve started a few LOTR and literature threads a year ago, but nothing much.

F7
The genius behind the Powers threads (2.0 to come out), the New High School RP, and a few others.

Basically speaking, they just help out where help is needed. A nice list for new players to look at and basically think "Oh, okay, I can totally get help from these people. THANKS, INTERNET!"

Damn you, Ninja'd! D:<

Though I was about to say the same thing, and there isn't really much to being a Trainer. Just lay back, and either wait for someone to pop along or you yourself come across someone that you think you can give some helpful comments to, though the hard part is trying not to sound judgemental, atleast in my case anyway :/

Regardless, those are some wonderful examples

Thanks.

So would I TG a few new players and see where that leads me?

Say if you come across a roleplay that is turning into a slightly spammy war-fest, though the OP themselves are trying to make the most effort, you can either post a small OOC Comment or even Telegram them to discuss with them what they could do better, but also congradulate them with their current efforts. If they take your advice and get along well with you, you could invite them to a small roleplay between you and then to practice their new skills. This doesn't always have to one-on-one, it could be a group if you find others who suffer from the same sort of problem

EDIT: Woops, one more thing. Offer Advice to everyone if possible, not just the OP. Got my setence wrong >.<

Hmm, I'm in FT and PT, and both are starting to get kinda crappy of late. This could be really nice.

I believe he is taking some time to go through the current batch of applicants.

Give me some time, guys, and I'll get you updated when I'm not on a phone.

Ahh.

Actually, Jenrak is on hiatus for a week or so. So, yeah.

*gasp* Mods have free time? Sounds like madness.

[Beldonia]

If being a trainer is regulated by the player, can't anyone do it on their own without it being official?

What.

I agree Ustio, what kind of fool said that. I hope he/she never advances to the rank of II Mentor.

[Bursalavoro]

Would someone be willing to train and or mentor me?

[Shanix]

I can answer your questions, and give you a few tips if you want.

Pretty sure that ain't against rules.

[Milograd]

No. D:<

Nah, I'd be happy to help you out mate, if you'd be up for it. Send me a telegram or pop by #NSMentors on espernet.

[Kylarnatia]

Would someone be willing to train and or mentor me?

Damn, Milo got to you before me

Though I will still offer my services regardless. Feel free to also drop me a telegram if you want, especially if you're looking to learn more about doing diplomacy and character roleplays, though if it's just general pointers I can put some comments in too. Your choice in the end

[Laswh]

Don't worrry guys, he will get you updated. That was he said.

[Bengalai]

I may be relatively new, but I've picked up bits, and I'm feeling helpful - I'll be a mentor or trainer (don't mind which). Jenrak, TG me if you got a problem/if you're happy with me volunteering. If I do become a trainer, just run me through what I'd have to do...

[Bengalai]

If either of your other two trainers can't help, I've learned some of the ropes (by reading things and seeing other nations in action), I'll give a hand. Telegram me for help.

You don't have to be on the list to be a trainer. It's in your actions and your state of mind, not where your name is recorded. At any rate, Jenrak is away for a few weeks so threads requiring his updating will have to wait for a while until he returns.

Well I have a question and this seems to be the place to ask them. The question is concerning my military. Thanks to the NS Absolution Economy Tracker, I have the total number of people serving in my military. But I'm having a bit of trouble dividing them up (such as determing the number of vehicles I have in my army; the number of aircraft in my air force; the number of ships in my navy, etc.). I was just wondering how I would do that.

Send me a TG, I'll help you in detail. Otherwise, this thread might get cluttered and such.
