Mentoring: perhaps we're better off without it

You might as well give up, I've been saying the same thing repeatedly, but they don't actually care if it helps new players or not. They are just pissed off that they can't be part of the system to reap the rewards without having to put a little more effort in.

I'm concerned that it isn't enough effort to become a mentor. Not the other way around.

Well, if it helps, the newbies will only be exposed to bad influence rays for only their first 40 hours of gameplay.

Incorrect. Mentor roulette pairs you with first timers in most, if not all, content.

This system was a joke in 11, and it will be a joke now. Serves no purpose other then for SE to say "At least we did something about the situation of skilless garbage players playing the game" people already get super defensive when you mention to someone "Hey just as a suggestion you should try *insert better option* over *insert bad option* to help push your rotation better." I know many of us out there give advice like jerks, but to those of us that realize context is everything. You can be sweet as ever, and still gt that person to say "Screw you elitest pig! It's my sub and I'll play how I want!" Because this game is meant for EVERYBODY, even the degenerates, this game makes it impossible to civilize much less educate the idiots out there.... but good kinda try.... I guess?

This post is a non-sequitur.

Regardless I don't think they should not have mentorship because some people are bad. That is even more reason to do it.
