==The Mentor System== | ==The Mentor System== | ||
When a new player or Ensign arrives at the Embassy from the academy, they are assigned a mentor. This is usually a Full Lieutenant or higher and would usually be their department head or someone with experience in that department. These mentors introduce themselves to the new officer the minute they come onboard, makes friends with them OOC -helps them make other ooc friends, importantly giving them something to respond to in the sim/help them get involved. Then if something is amiss with the new officer's sim they'll catch it and correct it. Eventually, they offer advice on things to try and improve on, all the while praising the new officer's positive aspects. | |||
This system seems to please both mentor and new officer a great deal. (if you're doing something wrong and get corrected by the Captain its sometimes a bit more daunting than if your buddy points it out to you and gives you some pointers.) | |||
This allows the junior officers to always get 1 on 1 help, praise and pointers whenever it's needed, whether that's three times a week or once a week. This ends up far better than if they were to wait until the end of the month for an evaluation from me as CO; it also gives the senior players an OOC responsibility. In this way, once you are a Lt or Lt.Cmdr you may become a mentor and gain a taster of dealing with OOC issues long before you reach Commander rank/FO status. It helps the crew gell and hopefully when you are a menotr you feel like they are giving | |||
something back by being involved with this ooc responsibility. | |||
This system helps junior officers to improve and also ensure they make OOC friends/ get help joining in the sim (i.e. we always have someone who will remember to include us and the mentor IC usually takes the new officer under their wings and introduce them to others IC) | |||
