I am not a novice and I dropped my mentor status when I realized that SE really had no intention of providing any sort of guideline enforcement and leaving the entire system to be player policed. With a majority on my servers novice network that dont care and use it simply for the rewards and dont care about actually helping new people it goes nowhere so I can no longer speak of what goes on in there outside of what new people I come across asking for help in cities. The entire system is a joke and should not be relied on in any way shape or form to assist or actually teach new people much of anything as a majority of the "sprouts" that I talk to have nothing but horror stories about it including mentors telling them to straight up quit the game because they are bad. A player should not be subjected to taht as their first impression onto a game. How would a player new to MMO's know how to report a player? How would a new player know how to blist someone? How does a new player know much of anything without some sort of dialog box or pop up giving them at least SOME basic information BEFORE throwing them into it and explaining things (such as how to leave the novice network chat channel or report players). If I have come across these people who were willing to talk in say asking for help on figuring this stuff out as I run through town to do some turn ins how many were not? How many players simply leave the game due to their first experience being something that is not just off topic (sometimes that can be fun) but down right inappropriate such as talking about how "ripped they got at a party" and they have no idea how to get away from it or sort their chat logs to not see it or anything like that. There really should be some sort of dialog box that pops up and sits there as a notification and then a help text letting you know what it is how to leave it if you want and how to deal with the basics. There is the active help menu for a reason after all.
