Lol why, you never helped nobody out before? Mary is an entrepreneur, but also a kind person, she comes up with an idea and works for it.
Mary [2161411]

im sorry you feel that way. is it because of how long my tutoring course is? i wanted it to be a medium amount of time a to not overload them and be so that multis wont just be given tons of free stuff on the first day. also i made a new edit. players can revoke their donation.
Malvo [2175250]

helping is fine, but this is too much. and certainly not a new idea. and what is the guarantee that new players will even recieve this 
Mary [2161411]

it might not be a new idea, but it is a good one that many have tried, but it has failed due to lack of honor. that is why mine will work. i have honor and people who know me trust me. also all players who complete my teaching course will be listed in this forum along with everything they have received.
Mary [2161411]

i dont need "street cred" to help people. that is one of the biggest problems. People in this game are so cutthroat, they can't even tell when someone is actually trying to be nice. no one has to donate. Botzim has, and i will. every job i do, i will donate part of my profit to this. maybe once i help a few people you will see. " all you need to change the world is an open mind."
Mary [2161411]

also players say that it is a scam, but how would that help me? im in a good place right now. i have a good business, that is dependent on trust, and i already have money. If this is a scam, all it would do is hurt my reputation, kill my business, and screw up my game. If you analyze the situation, you realize i may make a few mil, but i lose so much more.

Just saying, a good faction has armories full of high end gear, unlimited meds and low end drugs and boosters. 

These types of things always sound great but simply can't compete with a proper faction imo.
Mary [2161411]

well ive also been hoping to get some factions that will accept these young members of teh game. would i be able to send some to your faction after the course?
JonahHex [2108417]

good going Mary dont listen to the nahsayers there's always some around

also i run a cruise line maybe we can a little about that PM ok

im not sure if my fac will help but i can ask

keep up the good work!!

Nice sentiment, but giving new players actual items is danger because what happens when they quit after a few weeks? Items gone forever, unless you can somehow reach out and beg for them back.

I collect properties through my stock bonus that I upgrade and rent out each at $1/30 days - first come, first served after they get announced in Trade. I find this is a great way to give something back to the game, and encourages new players to stay on with a big Happy boost without losing a whole bunch of useful items to someone who might join and then just quit after a couple of weeks.
Mary [2161411]

yeah thats why i do the teaching course, i takes at least a week, becuase it is many lessons, and then the player spends time working, so it shows they are in for the long run. however i do listen to all suggestions, so what ill do it for no education course you can get some basic armor and weapons, then like 2 sfaks, faks, and morph. the full set will only be if they take the long teaching course.

I want to help new players and I have learned many ways to play, but I’d love for some help in creating lessons. Also why are you so against this? Is it because I wouldn’t pay you 1m for a joke? Because now you aren’t hurting me, you are just making A: yourself look like you hate helping people, and B: it harder for me to get good teachers and to be able to make my lessons. I wish you a happy holiday and hope that you see, maybe in time, that I’m trying to do something good. Even if I only help 1 person, or 2, I’d still be making a difference, and you could too. You just have to want to help people.

however he is right about one thing. I don’t know about some parts of  the game, so any players who volunteer to make a lesson for a subject, such as events, attacking, traveling, etc. and other subjects like these, they will get 50% their next service from me.  If they make more than one lesson, then future services will also receive discounts.
