So , i guess welcoming message needs to be changed in to "Contact players taged Johnny Walker for help" ? xd
That or players who are willing to help new players can add tag in style : (HELPER) , (HELP) , (H) , (Guide) or something like that .
Some players tried to push that idea before , but is was "not in RP reason" that stop it .

A visible helper tag gets more PMs, that is true. However, I found that being level 90 is almost as good. Combine that with PMing the newbies yourself and you got the efficiency of a helper tag.

True , i was often contacted on my LV 90 transport by newbies for advice , but tag is way more better solution , especially since i have couple of transports/miners/freighters , not all of them are LV 90 , it is simply better to stick a tag ( help ) to all of them , then to keep 900 M on each of them .

If people want to have a helper tag, why delete the Angels instead of just recruiting to them, makes no sense, most people does already know the Angels?
RE: Faction Discontinued: The Angels - Etaphreven - 03-29-2017
Because the Angels didn't exist anymore. Besides you and Zyl, there was nobody active. The leadership was rubbish and the whole thing was just an elitist circlejerk.

New players PM anyone with a rank 90, really.
RE: Faction Discontinued: The Angels - Etaphreven - 03-29-2017
Another question. Since anyone will be able to post in the log now, should we anonymize the people we help so that it's not used for "accidental trial by forum"? Posts like "I tried to help this guy but he refused and kept breaking rules... SO HERE IS THE CHATLOG."

It's been like that for the past several years.

Not always helpfull friend, you can do trading till level 90, and still not know anything of Freelancer or disco, other than trading, and buying caps, i did that when i was new.

Summary:
The only people that were helping the new players (Angels) and were the only ones that kept these same newbs, including old me, from quiting from this server, are now gone.
And now normal players have a duty to help them.
Why not, we only have to remember 100 RP Rules, and to follow them, and we get stressed every day because you never know when is pirate going to jump on you or when is a fool that doesn't follow rules going to blast you. Sure, add helping to that too.
My point is, that angels were people that really helped players, and that was all that was required from them!
For us as you can see, it's required all of the above i mentioned, now normal dudes have to be Angels too!
With all due respect to Admins, this was not a good decision, and i would recommend them at least think about reconsidering the return of the Angels.
Thank you.
