Mentor Appreciation thread

I want to positive really I do I swear but I've only seen 5 or so helpful mentors, 100s of bad ones & 10s of silent ones. But those helpful ones were um...helpful & always got my comm for helping the noobs.

Theres nothing wrong with being silent.

I'm not explaining things if people don't want to listen.

They can see the symbol beside my name. They know what it means and that means they can ask me pretty much anything and I have an answer for it.

Mentor status does NOT mean you have to explain every single mechanic and aspect of the dungeon in full detail.

No where did it EVER say that was your job when you signed up to be a mentor.

That crown beside my name means if you need a partial FFXIV wiki, you can ask me. Its not my job to just spout off information. Maybe its your job to ask questions

This is an unfortunate reality, and it's the reason that I made this thread, to highlight the good work that has been done. The only advice I can really give against this for anyone is to become the kind of mentor that you want to see in the world, because if it makes an impression on just one person it's worth it.
