I'm Supervisor of this now . So... e-mail us if you have any questions! student.introduction@gmail.com Ruuk's original statements... "Several days ago, I suggested an idea _tenatively_ called "JA Big Brother/Big Sister." The idea is to help new students. This post is a location where you can sign up. If you need more info on this program, read below. In a separate thread I stated the following: "5. BETTER INTRODUCTION INTO JA FOR NEW STUDENTS. This is already being worked on, but I think it could be better. The new students are now being sent, with their acceptance letter, a hyperlink to the Holocron. Inside this thing is a tremendous amount of information that would be VERY useful to the newbie prior to getting on the forums and online. However, I have another idea. Why don't we have a sort of big brother/big sister program started? Each newbie could be assigned to an active, willing JA member for a couple days...at least to just get their feet wet. They don't have to remain hooked up forever...like I said, maybe just a few days. We could add a post where people could volunteer to do this, and the upper management could rotate the new peeps in among the volunteers. ALSO: we've been concerned about the number of new people coming into the JA. I don't think this will be a problem. The new game will bring 'em back in. And how. SO...I suggest we use this new BB/BS program as a recruiting tool. As a way to "calm pre-newbie fears" about joining JA. Meaning, some people (laugh if you must!) are too shy to try entering something like what we have here. If we put up on our site that we have this as our standard operating procedure, we may bring in more peeps that need hand-holding. Once they get in here, we rip 'em apart, but until then...JUST KIDDING! -rh" _______________ Captain Barkeep. This post was edited by Mune on Oct 24 2004 12:45am. |

Thank you Aratan. Now, for the fun stuff... sorta. I need to get those who have signed up opinions on how you think this should be run, along with the management provided they happen to see my post. Hopefully you too have some ideas. -Mune _______________ Captain Barkeep. |

Wheee. Well, as of right now, I'm still waiting for mail from DJ and Doobie. If someone already voted on the older thread, could you post the poll results from that thread over to this one? As of right now, this is the new name!... Alright. I'll get into some questions on how exactly we BB/BS's want to run things, but as of right now, I'm a bit tired. So that'll wait for tomorrow, methinks. That's all for now! -Mune _______________ Captain Barkeep. |

Mune- Don't forget the poll data...I'll drop the old thread once you put that up. Also: you might want to clean up the text (quotes, etc.) at the top to make sure people understand that you are quoting me. New people to the thread may not understand why it looks like it does. Might want to put your note - which is currently at the bottom - at the top instead, too, to make it easier for peeps to catch that you're taking over. And check with the upper management to see what kind of name they would like to call it. Add it to the poll. You should wait until the end of the week to make a final decision on it. At that time, grab what has gathered the most attention and rename the project (and the thread title). Good job, and good luck. Everyone else- Mune will be coming to you sometime in the near future to tap into your brains and get your thoughts on how to handle this project. Combine the JAC desires and your suggestions, and you should have a pretty rockin setup. Just try and give Mune a hand, please. At least MindofSin had an up and running Holocron program to go from when I dropped it in his lap... -rh _______________ Back from the dead...
