*Adopt a Newbie* Foundation - Society concept

Newbie = Sign up for the *Adopt a Newbie* list

Hi im KungPow, from Paradox, soc leader

We think our soc is a great way for new players to start, i've have a few succesfull ppl who made it without depo. We also have a few ppl that depo, including myself. I would like to have a variety of people on the soc so no requirements. We dont adopt if we accept you, you are more then welcome to stay. This is why i won't participate with this nice initiative. I would like to take the opportunity to let ppl know we are recruiting.

We don't take the hierarchy of a soc very serious, evrybothy is responsible to make something of it, disregarding rank. A soc is basicly just a extra chat channel if you look at it a certain way. I've seen other RPG and MMO with alot better structures and a system that allows people to unite or participate with several groups. Also functions for ppl that can't be booted (ex. councillor) making it a more shared responsability. I find the soc leader in EU has too much power, making it hard to unite as it is all based on trust.

People with no gaming experiance are sometimes lost. What brings them together and make them comited to function as a collecive unit is up to them. As mentioned before and on other forums alot of activitys are better in group and i have to agree the lack to communicate is the biggest flaw ppl make in the game.

our rules are simple,

NO RULES (isn't that handy)

If you are under 16 you are not allowed in the soc due to the NO RULES
People on the soc are responsible for themselves and me the soc leader will not pretend to be some kind of chat mod. You need to be over 16 because i won't restrict myself or other members talking trash.

we like to, hunt, mine, resell, auction resell, swunt, share trade info, build up a social trade net and more

I believe anyone can contribute to the soc in their own way, you dont need to have a HI IQ or be rich, just a nice personality with social skill can contribute much.

So if you are interested apply for Paradox, we are a new soc building up and i would like to max it out to 200 people, maybe then we can kick some ass in pvp3, who knows :)

This looks like a great initiative.

Will talk to the soc and see if they want to get involved :)

Personally I would be happy to "adopt" new players who wish to learn the ways of Amethera mining :)

Hi Lykke

This is a really great idea, and i do hope it works.

My Society -TAO- does take newbies onboard, on a very similar basis already. But i do like the idea of being able to choose our newbies from your lists. The information supplied looks very useful.

Btw, I have a load of Goblin shins from participating in a Daiki-killing event. Kept them in case you can use them? (feel free to trade em for more useful stuff)


Anything you're particularly after for your kits? (I'll ask around in Soc)

jay :)

 

Hi jaywalker.

First of all, thanks for the interest! Willing societies are what I've been trying to chase up lately, instead of over-filling the Newbie List. Good to see more socs are coming across ANF by chance, that says something!

I'll jump in here as I'm the Fund organiser. For info on the Fund you can see My Thread. More specifically:

An example of typical Kits:

Pixie Harness
Pixie Arm Guards
Pixie Foot Guards
Pixie Shin Guards
Isis CB5 (L) OR Emik S30 (L)
Omegaton Fast Aid FAP-5

But at the moment, anything goes!

You may also want to head over to my Soc List thread to be entered into the table, which is also just finding its feet. Would it be possible to set an unofficial-ish meeting up in-world with you?

Again, thank you for registering your interest with us!

Peace,

Dalas.

 

Hi
I registered on this site specifically to support this project, and offer the support of my society Laudanum to the cause. Who are we: We are a group of relatively new players, and some not-so-new ones, who have banded together over the last few months with the goals of helping other new players out not just with game mechanics, but with dispelling many of the myths, legends, and outright harmful outlooks within the Entropia Universe. We are non monetarily focused, our goals and events instead tend to lead themselves more toward the esoteric aspects... in short we are socially oriented and aware.

What do we do for new players?

• We host weekly society events, and do individual teleport runs as the group needs it.
• We provide care packages as the player advances instages, with incentives to advance. Currently we have a loose contest, where the first 5 new players to reach 1000 sweat gathering recieve $30 US dollars in equipment.
• We host trivia and knowledge related contests inside of our society apartment at Omegaton West Habitat Beta Complex.
• We host member blogs so that people can see each members progress, successes and failures.
• We have a voice chat server where members can hang out and talk about the game.

I feel we provide a unique perspective to our participants, showing them that Entropia Universe is about the platform, not about the spreadsheets. To that end we have teamed up with a Television Show and YouTube broadcast, Music Production and Promotion group, and other real life entities who's events we will be hosting within Entropia Universe as a way to raise awareness of these particular projects.

Are we an old society? No. I started playing in January and did not found the society until April. Many other members started playing only in March or April. We number just over 40 people now, many of whom are getting their legs about them. One of our philosophies though is that players who learn together play together.

Anyone who wishes to learn more about us and where we are headed can check out our Society website www.laudadanumonline.com. The site is a work in progress, and is updated almost daily with new information and content.

 

Wow Magyar, that is awesome! We already met at Swamp and had some fun :D

I would appreciate it if you headed over to my Society List and posted just the basics required to make a table entry. I will link to this post in the table there.

Thanks for the interest, we are looking for more socs and it's nice to have such a new one in the ranks of ANF.

 

add Integrity ver. 2.0 to the list , im rebuilding my own soc again , hopefully this program weeds out the wheat from the chaffe . some hate me , some love me , but , i do know alot about the game and dont mind helping peeps if they are honest.
