REQUIREMENTS: A good attitude and a desire to learn about the game.
WHO WE ARE: A bunch of newbies with a few veterans teaching them how to play.
ACHIEVEMENTS: About 10 newbies successfully integrated into the PBTerm world. Our new members tend to be less annoying and better players than people with comparable time spent in the game. Consistently on the top10 lists for the last two weeks. Friendships made and fun had on the game has to be our greatest achievement though. =)
OUR GOALS: To teach newbies how to play and to keep them from runnign into some of the normal, but annoying, stages of learning the game. (Such as spamming, note sending, constant annoying begging, etc.) And to make the game more enjoyable for everyone by providing a good place to find friends in the game.
MESSAGE TO THE TEAM: You guys keep doing better than I expected when I started this team. You have definately disproved the people who kept telling me that newbies couldnt be formed into a good team. Keep up the great work =)
MESSAGE TO NEWBIES: If you think you want to be a StarshipTrooper, make friends, and learn more about the game, just send me a note or a tell in the game. As long as our membership isn’t full, we will accept anyone who wishes to join. Even if you aren’t on the team, feel free to ask any of our veteran players (Supters, Tomycat, Johnny, or myself any questions you have, we all try to be as helpful as possible to people just starting out in the game.
MESSAGE TO VETERANS: Supters, Johnny and I have been working hard to make this into a good team, but we need some more help. If you like helping newbies (not necessarily financially, just in answering question) give a thought to joining the team. We may never make the top10 teamever list, but we will have one heck of a lot of fun wallowing in our mediocrity
CLOSING THOUGHTS: Please remember that everyone was a newbie at one pouint in time. When we help new people to learn the game we help ourselves. Many of our newbies have registered, and the money they provided to David and Dug may help to start up that new server everyone wants, so think twice before you insult your next newbie…he is the one who will be footing the bill to keep the game up and running.
