new upgrade ZAB read

we have alot of new accounts coming in. some are obv old scammers but there are legit noobs joining. instead of having to answer question after question and fixing mistake after mistake. make a new upgrade. call it the newbie walkthrough.

basically get a group of member together to be the site mentors. 5-10 ppl. anytime a new member joins the site they get automatically assigned a mentor. that mentor then walks them through everything on the site and completes an evaluation form. the new member cannot access anything until the evaluation is completed and submitted.

would take 1 hour tops for someone to walk a noob through the site and show them how the place works. far as payment goes for the mentors maybe 5% of the noobs points lifetime or something? or 5% for 1st month. tweak it n use this idea

I have to say when I first signed up here, if that was a requirement, I don't think I would have stayed.
It is not a bad idea as an option though for those that might want it.

I also would not have stayed if this was a requirement. There are plenty of guides in this forum to learn everything you need to know. Maybe on signup, if you could have ZAB give a link that they must click to the new members thread. If on signup your directed straight to a walkthrough most will take the time to skim through quick.

Not saying this is a bad idea, like the other said, I worry about scaring people away. This site is REALLY big and there's a large learning curve

must be an american thing, not that this site is particularly hard one to learn but we have seen the guides dont work people people dont wanna read them :| just like hey dont wanna be shown anything personally having someone "friendly" (eugh shudder just thinking about it) guide people around the site would have been pleasant i guess as an "option" its the only way its gunna work god forbid people get help with learning the site theyd rather fuck up again and again and again

**tommy62278** · 01-30-2014, 11:19 AM

maybe make it an option then. not a must

i think the site is fairly simple to figure out just by being in the chat and watching how people interact as well a lot of promotions are self explanatory plus there are FAQ's about everything...
