Vaynth 3005 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Hello fellow members of the LOTC community. As many of you know, the Application Team strives towards getting new players acquainted with the server. This isn’t simply about player retention or being recognized as part of a staff team, but because we strive to promote a sense of belonging and security for every addition to the community. Our desire is to make sure absolutely every white-listed person feels comfortable and aware that they always have others to turn to when they have a question, concern, or simply wish for an individual to role-play with. We want them to feel that they have the opportunity to immerse their character in various interactions and role-play within their most fitting area of our wonderful pixel world.Recently Fireheart has implemented a new system in which we send accepted applicants to older players that would help get them set up in their designated area of the map. That system has been put on hold shortly, while we simply don’t have enough people participating from different nations and such to get good results. That’s why the team has decided to reach out towards the rest of the community, and ask for assistance in this server wide project. If interested to be added as a volunteer, we simply ask that you fill out our mini questionnaire below. A player who participates will be expected to occasionally take on new players and be the first person they role-play with.The main idea is to help them find their place on the server in a fun and interactive manner.As this isn’t an official staff position and is completely voluntary, you obviously aren’t required to help every time a new player comes to you. We just ask that you be kind and at least direct them to someone else that you think could help, including any of our Application Team members. The AT will always be around to provide direction and aid to anyone that needs it. If you don’t want to participate anymore, simply tell one of us and you will be removed from the list. After submitting your application in the replies to this thread, we will get a hold of you if you are chosen. If you would like to submit a private response, contact myself or LadyParion.(If Fireheart has already implemented you into this system, no need to re-apply!)

I hope to try and create a small group of commoners to bring activity back to Metz. I believe the best place to start a human character is in a town, where they can experience how other roleplay and work together. Once they get a good feeling of how the plugins and roleplay works, they are set for new paths on LotC. I personally found myself starting a commoner/peasant character in the beginning because it is simple and relaxing. I hope to give new coming players the same experience.

Parkins 550 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Volunteer formatMC Name: ParkinsNation(s) you belong to IC: Haense/ Necromancers (Idk if that counts.)Time Zone: EST Skype (if applicable): parkins_ Discord (if applicable): Parkins Forum Account Link: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/profile/64141-parkins/ Preferred Method of Contact: Skype How will you go about assisting new players?: I've been doing 'spook' and noble RP for pretty much my entire time on the server. Playing mob bosses, noble kids, and finally a Necromancer. I can teach new players how to be a better, decent to roleplay with villain that doesn't leak edge, how to roleplay fight (I like to think I'm good at this.), and how to do roleplay well in general. If they want to know how to be a spook or a noble, I think I can help them along. I'm not available all the time, since I work and go to school, but I'm on almost every night. If nothing else I check Skype constantly throughout the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StokedOff 456 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Volunteer formatMC Name: StokedOffNation(s) you belong to IC: Kingdom of Haense / Duchy of CarnatiaTime Zone: PST Skype (if applicable):dakota_lane Discord (if applicable): Forum Account Link:https://www.lordofthecraft.net/profile/78191-stokedoff/ Preferred Method of Contact: Skype or forums, doesn't matter. How will you go about assisting new players?: I would go out of my way to roleplay with them to give them the proper experience they need. I'd teach them how to properly emote and assist them in properly roleplaying their character. When I first started it was hard to find people who actually would roleplay with a new person so I'd be that helping hand they need. Helping them by giving them a community to roleplay with is what I think would be a good start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember one of my first villain moments. I was very very new, and I had no idea how to respond. Thankfully, the villain was willing to walk me through what to do. I've seen villains that take advantage of new players and don't help them out at all, and I'd be more than willing to teach them. Of course, I can help out with much more than Villain Roleplay. That was just an example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How will you go about assisting new players?: I think the best way to help new players is to integrate them into our community, being the GK of the Dwarves I come across it a lot with helping new players, so I would definitely be up for the task. More then anything new players need to feel like they have a sense of belonging amongst the playerbase, and thus I will mostly focus on that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How will you go about assisting new players?: Help them learn the ropes, the more non-obvious commands, learn how to RP naturally, which I had a lot of trouble with when I first joined, and how to get along OOCly, no matter the direction of RP. Which mostly all comes back to making sure everybody has an enjoyable experience, which is what matters in the long run. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
