New Users Training/RPG Community Mentors

Hello and welcome!

This is a new CVU scheme created to help new RPGers find their feet. As all of us have seen, for every one RPGer that decides to write here five turned up, put their feet into the water, and then never returned. Why? Well, there's many reasons. I hope to tackle just a single of those reasons with this new idea! It's been tried before but never in this fashion. Taking the initiative to new RPGers and introducing them to the fold rather than having them round about like headless chickens (we all did it!).

This thread isn't for new writers, it's for established ones.

Do you want to help new RPGers?

Do you want to possibly make new friends?

Help the RPG section?

But don't get this wrong, this isn't an "ask" and "get" type of project if you like, a mentor is more than somebody who approaches a person and then never speaks again. This should be, if you become a mentor, you decide to invest in this new RPGer and build them up. Because there's no better way of retaining RPGers than actually forming a friendship with them if it's possible.

That's why if you decide to become a mentor make sure you're one hundred percent committed to helping somebody otherwise it's unfair on them.

If you'd like to be involved send me a message via Discord or private message Pyrogram! Once that's done I'll add you to the group of existing mentors who got involved a few weeks back.

Okay new users now that you've read this crap, ignore it. You don't need mentors (unless they are me), you need to train yourself, do push ups with your index finger, grab a sheet of paper and brainstorm, watch TV for inspiration. Go around the world for the next 20 years of your life and train with the best teachers and gurus and be your own man/woman.

DKD out.

@pyrogram: That aside perfect man

Lets kill the chatter now though

You contradicted yourself in that paragraph.

@pyrogram:

I said train with, not train under; big difference.

@the_last_arashikage: Teach me how to write martial arts and fighting and stuff.

Gosh, I remember my old mentor...I don't know what would have become of me without that guy. >_>

Are you being serious? lol you're not a new user :P

@the_last_arashikage: Discrimination! Assholery! I still need help and improvement!

@_strigidae_: Ha! Well I can help you write them the way I do. It may not be a system you feel complements your writing style but I'll try to help :P

People! Please PM me rather than wall posting! I get too many notifications for me to keep track of that thing. Plus when I hold my mouse over it they all disappear.

I need help to become such an awesome battle writer... that I'll be Gambler in the next KOV :P who wan'ts to mentor me?

@the_last_arashikage: I guess...What I really wanted....was your attention.

Gonna kick your ass too.

@_strigidae_: Get in line

@the_last_arashikage: I'm at the front.

@feral_nova: You'll BE gambler? Or beat? :P

*Kicks to back of line*

@xenon_: Good Luck.

@xenon_: I'm sorry, it doesn't fly that way around here. So, kindly,

@_strigidae_: My thread my rules, *Points to end of line* So kindly, follow the rules fool!

@xenon_: The discussion doesn't pertain to your thread. So shut your ass, foo!

@_strigidae_: Shut my ass? What does that even mean? Stupid foolish child! *Points*

@xenon_: It means you're my bitch and you have a debt to pay.

@_strigidae_:

@xenon_: Did he actually say that?

@_strigidae_: No -_-

@xenon_: The rest of his words lined up with the mouth, and I haven't seen that in forever!

@_strigidae_: Close you mouth and just pretend you never even asked that >.> It's embarrassing and will put new users off :P

@xenon_: Your face will put new users off!

@_strigidae_: No it incites people to RP it's so fabulous!

@xenon_: It's suckish. Just plain suckish.

@_strigidae_: Well never scared you off, So you can't talk.

@xenon_: It did. Why do you think I went "missing" for a few days? Your face.

@_strigidae_: You could not handle how much you loved it, so you had to leave for a while. I understand *Pats head*

@xenon_: No. It was your face. Horrifying.

@_strigidae_: Horrifying in the amount it appealed to you? I know, It's a scary thought. Really....I understand.

@xenon_: Horrifying in how suckish it was. No one should suck as much as your face does.

@_strigidae_: Nobody can have this much hate, You're clearly lying :P

@xenon_: You'd be surprised how much hate people can have. It's not that, here. It's merely the way things are.

@_strigidae_: @xenon_: Take this to another thread. No need to scare new users. ;p

@_strigidae_: The way things are about my face sucking?, This is not a good impression to new users! xD

@xenon_: Circles.

@xenon_: You b@sterd.........good idea :), you can list me as a mentor if you like, I'm already training one or two peeps as it is.

@_strigidae_: Keep your circling my face elsewhere, I know it has a gravitational pull but control yourself :P

@risky: You are correct :p

@amazingangel: added :)
