    Group of Abusive Mentors in novice network

    Being kicked constantly from novice for standing up to this toxic group for simply stating go right in the new variant dungeon for a route under so called "spoilers" keep reporting these idiots just to be brushed off with standard copy pasted GM responses

    The Novice Network in general is absolute garbage and I highly recommend just leaving, that's what I did after being in there for about a week. In my case, it was either German General Chat (on Zodiark) or it was raiders arguing over endgame job balancing. When a newbie asked something, they were either ignored or told off for interrupting the conversation. It's not worth it.

    Sad that NN quality depends 100% on the server you play on,
    while other server have good ones.. other can be cursed with ****** ones.

    It's sadly been like that since HW. You could report kick abuse though which supposedly is taken more harshly but just note they're allowed to kick for negative behavior in the novice network. On the contrary I don't see the the issues like I did back in HW.?

    Also there are a lot of mentors who don't like being there either. They separate novice network chat logs or turn it off.

    I've been playing for about a week now and been apart of the Novice Network for most of that. I normally keep to myself but I've asked a few questions and got some helpful responses. I personally haven't seen any negative interactions other than some spicy back and forth between a couple mentors, well I assume they are mentors.

    I never bothered with Novice Network when i first started. I just leave lol some mentors are super helpful and some are elitist douchebags thinking they're better than the rest.

    I feel bad for you. I made an alt on aether because l decided that instead of ng+, l will do arr story on an alt. Surely enough, l got invited into novice network. I thought people in there are ok. There is just a bunch of people seeking attention, but nothing toxic going on

    As a Mentor and having my own personal bad experience from being in there I can safely say it's probably the most toxic place on FF. There is no benefit in being in that channel. I remember one mentor in there being extremely toxic and having to vote to remove them only for them to jump to their alt account to kick me from it. Best advice is to avoid it.
