☑ Two, Kupo! - Welcome Moogles
WELCOME MOOGLES
HOGWARTS WANTS YOU
So basically, kupo, a fair while ago, there was talk of creating a sort of welcoming committee for greeting new players to squarewarts, and following all the recent revisions our mods have made, the idea has been revisited. Although there is the original post floating about somewhere on the comms I couldn't haven't gotten around to finding it yet, and it is at least a few months old. If you had any comments or interest about the idea that you mentioned then which you still feel are relevant, please feel free to bring them up here! Eventually I will find that freaking post, kupo.
HOW DOES A WELCOME MOOGLE 'MOOGLE'?
When coming into a new game (or even beginning LJ RP), it can be a bit overwhelming, especially among a group of established players. The role of the Welcome Moogle is to make our new players feel at home, and give them a contact they can rely on when they first start off. Here is the basic play by play of what a Welcome Moogle might be expected to do:
☛ Establish contact with the new player to whom you have been assigned and get to know them
☛ Answer any questions they have about the game, or help them feel less (potentially) daunted about approaching a mod with any questions they have that you can't answer!
☛ Thread and/or log with them to help get them rolling with establishing CR
In short, help them feel comfortable in the game and ease them into the Squarewarts community. If this sounds like something you would like to and have the time to do, please proceed to the next step!
(Please note - anyone can sign up to be a Welcome Moogle, although there is some degree of commitment involved. We don't want anyone getting neglected by their moogle, kupo! That's just mean.)
LET'S DO THE MOOGLE-MOOGLE SHAKE
If you would like to volunteer as a Welcome Moogle, please fill in the following form and post it as a response to this entry:
Name:
Time Zone:
Personal LJ:
E-mail:
AIM/MSN/YAHOO:
Preferred means of contact:
As new players reply positively to the new section in the app asking if they would like a Welcome Moogle, we will work through the list of Moogles to accommodate them, and cycle back through as necessary. If you are selected as the next Moogle during a hiatus or hectic time for you, you MUST contact the mods and let them know so that another Moogle can be sent in.
