  1. Also beginners should really have like 10 speakers to start with
     
  2. Fine then get more VK's

  3. Goodjob devs this is great for those new players and hopefully they will come back after the first week
     
  4. Nice job devs 
     
  5. I volunteer as valiant knight

    ...that's how it works right? :lol:
     
  6. Isnt there not already a gray color spell
     
  7. I really like that idea about sponsoring players. Although easily exploited.
     
  8. In all seriousness, I would recomend Sholron as a VK. (S)he has been around a very long time, knows the mechanics, and is an all round friendly person.
     
  9. Awesome idea , i hope you update your outdated/terrible tutorial
     
  10. I also volunteer balto because, well yah know

  11. IMO, this is a decent start to increasing retention - you've said it yourselves devs, that this is a social app with a gaming aspect.

    The next step IMO is setting up mentors or the like. Based on my years in various subclans, retention is much higher on the people who have the focus of somebody who knows what they're doing than those who are mostly ignored.
     
  12. Agreed.

    There needs to be communication between the new players and the "vets", to help the new players get hooked into the game.
     
  13. Ahem platinum, we prefer the term... SUPER VETS
     
  14. Is this enough proof I mean I volunteered two minutes ago and already people support it.
     
  15. Another game i played had a mentor system, it'd help a bunch here's a proposition:

    Mentors or those who want to be can apply to be a mentor, then an apprentice (new player) is directed to this page. Here is a list of some possible mentors. They can then choose their own mentor and he can help them in mentor chat. The mentor may also receive personal rewards for mentoring so many ppl (with a max of something like 5 at a time of course). This would make mentors want to help more to get something like an achievement and apprentices would be helped to grow. Once the apprentice hits the HL they will be automatically dropped, or a mentor can drop if they are being inactive.
     
  16. We will help everyone we can devs
     
  17. Exactly and Sholron and Platinum.

    That's why I thought of having VK's do it, yet if their aren't enough...

  18. Yeah they suck you in, then ignore you.
     
  19. Why isn't Balto's name in gray?
