Event Idea: Mentor/Mentee Training

I had this idea today and figured I would see what people think. And no this is not an excuse for ANYONE to come and bash an idea, (that is not what the suggestion thread is for) I just want your guys almost opinion. So I have noticed that a lot of players are not even relatively low rank anymore. If I had to guess I would think a lot of the players are at least b and up. I know there are newbie players who are lower (or people like me who have life issues and had to break) so I was thinking why not hold an event, where Lower Ranked players can team up with higher ranked ones to defeat enemies and help rank up. Basically say me, a C ranked mage, teamed up with Sir Leonard who i believe is either S or H Rank I'm not really sure. We would adventure out and defeat countless enemies which a moderator can setup a dice roll list for. The more enemies and stronger ones defeated the better exp u get. The Mentors could even get a jewel bonus or something for doing this, I don't know.

Recently we had a few players leave the site and it worries me. I am thinking not only will this help newbie and low ranked players rank up, and would help build rp relationships and maybe stop fighting and inner issues we have been having.

There is a definite distinction between lower and higher ranked players. I understand that is the point, but when it comes to event time or quests with others, it tends to make you feel useless. I have countless times and it doesn't help the rp morale. I figured it may be fun to have an event designed to help. :) With always, SPARKLES. What do you guys think?

Heero and I were discussing a similar idea, where a high ranked mage takes a lower ranked mage off to train, and they get exp for it. It would have to be rigorous, and watched over to make sure the high rank doesn't do everything for them. It might not be needed just yet, but it's something that could be nifty later on. Or maybe just mentor and mentee benefits in general. But one little bit, there's not as many high ranks as you think, a majority of the site is D-C ranked. But other than that, if we tweaked it up a bit, maybe. :D

Side note: Anything to relieve tension and help the site is a good idea

I think this could help the site, since each higher rank player would be running one lower rank one, which means both can talk about a schedule about how often each are on. It's something that I'd love to do if I wasn't a c-rank, but honestly im for this idea since their is more freedom involved in this and less backlash (hopefully).

P.S: all for helping the site out, and if this can then I will do what I can to help!

I should go to bed, but I saw this and I want to say it seems really neat! I saw Zack's wanted post asking for people to RP with, since things seem to get boring at high rank. I feel like this might be a cool thing for those high rank peeps to do. Help out the newbies, build character bonds, stuff like that.

I quite like this idea. Might be worth implementing in the near future.

Perhaps...with a certain level of randomization so that you don't know who you will be teamed up with.

A random team generator for jobs done in this fashion. Like a lower ranked member posts for a job and a random mentor is then picked for them, maybe off of the dice system using the normal dice to roll for the mentor?

And since it's only 6 sides, and I'm sure more people would want to mentor, we could have it based off of rank as well. Say someone wants an A rank mentor, they could state that in their roll post. Or even could divide it into types of mentors based on how they would act while mentoring.
