(S20) - PT1 - Rookie Mentor

[MN_Moosey]

From my understanding, being a rookie mentor is quite a challenge. With having such a large class there will be questions asked a hundred times over. The key is to be patient. When working 1 on 1 with a rookie, it’s important to make them feel comfortable and not like an outcast who doesn’t understand ever little nuance that the league has. For me, I would start by trying to talk with them in pms and work with them in the process of figuring out a position that would best suit them. Talking them through building a player and giving them the essential links such as the update calculator, rookie guide, and working with them on getting their update page set up properly are all things that need to happen right away. If they are having issues working through the site, I would help them with the pathfinding that comes with a forum setup. A lot of key information is hidden around in the site so getting them the links will be extremely beneficial. The final thing that I think needs to happen on the first day is getting them the links to activities that they can perform to gain TPE and get their player off to a great start. There will be tons of questions along the way and by the end of it all, I would hope to have made influence on a new player that would make them want to be active and enjoy what this league has to offer.
