How do YOU Treat new PR Members? :D - Page 2

archerfenris · 01-20-2010, 04:52 PM

I generally introduce them to the game. Say welcome etc. Try to teach them a few quick things then politely tell them that they need to read the manual or they will be lost. Nothing more annoying than guys thinking they can't be shot as a collaborator if they put their hands up.

But generally well. I find the PR community is a personable bunch (for the most part) and are much nicer and less egotistical than the 1337 noobs of other games.

For the most part I try to be understanding, but for a few I just have to go over to their house and rag on how they walked up to an enemy APC and tried to request a kit to blow it up. Then we laugh.

If I'm on a training server & I notice new people I will make a sqaud to help them out & tell them everything they want & need to know.

They are all pieces of clay that we can mold in the way we want. I enjoy having new-to-PR players in my squads (if they can get in) because I see it as an opportunity to get them going on the right path. Think of all of the bad experiences we've all had on other servers, and then look at the opportunity we have to teach this new player the right way to do things. Besides, PR needs to grow it's player base, and so we should make every effort to make new players feel welcomed and see just how great this game and the PR community can be.

New to the Forums? Treat them with suspicion until they reach 26posts without attempting to by-pass the 25post Suggestions Forum rule or say 'fast ropes.'

In-Game? Be kind and informative until they request a Sniper Kit or go Lone-Wolfing.
