Why do you want to be a mentor? From personal experience, I know that HIO can be very confusing at first, since it’s a very big site and there’s a lot of things we need to do that new players may not fully understand (e.g. creating an encyclopaedia, registering with Index etc). I would love to aid more new players in navigating the site, and help them settle into the community quickly.

It sounds very sappy and embarrassing, but I just genuinely love this community. I've met so many incredible friends here, and it's become such a constant in my life that I genuinely don't know how I was going about my life not knowing about it.

When I first joined the site, I was rather precocious and had registered, gotten validated, and then applied for index all in the same afternoon. I was in such a rush to complete everything on my own that I missed the mentorship experience, something that was very formative for a lot of the player base. There were a lot of questions I had early on that I either didn't know who to ask, or was too embarrassed to go about doing so.

As such, while I can't go back in time and apply for a mentor as a new player, I can sign up to be this resource for our new members going forward. I think First impressions matter a whole lot when it comes to player longevity, and I'd like to be able to be someone that new players can turn to with their own too embaressing questions as they get acclimated.
