Big Brother

This is regarding the mentor system.

What is xSpore's Big Brother?
Some people who have entered a school at a late date may know about the Buddy System. This is where you are assigned a trusted member of the school to effectively be your guide. You can ask them questions, complain about stuff to them, they show you the ropes, etc. Well, I decided to incorporate this into xSpore for newbies and VIPs.

VIPs are your Big Brothers. Newbies are the Little Brothers.

Each Big Brother chooses what you call them, and what he calls you. For instance, I call my newbies "Students" and I like them to call me "Master". Each VIP can have their own names, but, you'll find a lot of copies (This thing is a joke. You can call your mentor by their name, not what they call themselves, if you want. It's just for fun ^^

How do I get a mentor?
Simple. Below is a list of all the VIPs willing to mentor. Attached is the other people they are mentoring, a little bit about themselves, and whether they are accepting new apprentices. All YOU have to do is find one you like the sound of, send them a Personal Message asking for their Mentoring, and wait to see if they accept you. If they accept you, they must PM me saying you've been accepted and whether they are still accpeting new apprentices. They may choose to send you a welcome mail, but after that, it's as I said in the first section! Have fun!
Please note, a mentor with a RED name is not accepting. A mentor with a GREEN name IS accepting.
If you do not know how to send a PM: On the list below, each of the mentors is linked to their profile page. Simply click their name and then on their profile page, click "Send this user a private message".
DO NOT POST FOR A MENTOR IN THIS THREAD. SEND THE MENTOR YOU WANT A PM.

The Mentors!

I corrected for you.

I have no desire to be a big brother, but if needed I'll give good advice to those that ask.

Isn't it a bit too late for this?

Also, I don't think the newbies are gonna be coming to this section and find out about the mentor part.

Sure, feel free to PM any of the mentors asking if you can.

Also, on a side note, here's the first student! Master of Disaster decided to take the high road and has opted to be my student. Let this be an example of the effectiveness of this system.

Well, I consider myself a long standing member who always has something to say. If you want a comparison of distance from me I live in Swindon Wiltshire, in Great Britain. Most times I am on are around GMT 3pm-10pm, not on xSpore all that time but I'm in touch at those days.

I call people the first thing that comes to mind.
I call myself: joesus, joebewan
i am currently called joe by fellow members.
My current Padawans:
xViktor

P.S I have a half full mail box so when you pm your buddy request I will send you my msn for quick access

I think Joe would be a good mentor, he only needs to be a bit more adult and make a better intro.

I vote in him to enter in the Big Brother project.
I was not paid by Joe to say this.
