Recruitment Channel: Automatically add the channel GÇ£RecruitmentGÇ¥ when a player joins an NPC Corp, when they create their character, or when the leave their Corp without joining a player Corp. Players in NPC Corps would be able to then leave the channel just like any other channel if they chose. Players in Corps (Recruiters) would be able to join the channel to post recruitment ads. This give new CEOGÇÖs access to players in all 48 DUST locals, and would not spam people who already have a Corp.
DUST Help Channel: The GÇ£DUST HelpGÇ¥ channel was created by Cat Merc to help new players, but new players donGÇÖt know about the channel. I would like to see new players automatically added to the GÇ£DUST HelpGÇ¥ channel when they create their characters. They could leave the channel just like any other normal channel.
Forum Access from the Merc Quarters: I would like to see an interface that would allow players to read the Forums while in their merc Quarters. (Read only, but with the URL displayed so they can find it on a computer if they want to post.) This would encourage players to read the forums, particularly the Rookie Training Grounds forum where there are many starter guides posted. It would also give people something to do while waiting for a replay to their LFS request.

Given the size and scope of these forums, it'd be kinda horrific. Perhaps a compromise might be a blue post browser, since a lot of important crud never makes it to the in-game? It could skip all of the navigation, and just let you read recent blue posts. All that would be needed is the text. Every day I mail a section of a guide to my Corp. I have gotten a lot of positive feedback about this. The new players really like it. Anyway, if I can cut and paste a max size forum post into EVE mail and my DUST members donGÇÖt have any problem reading it, I am sure they can present forum text in a readable fashion.
(I will say that there is a display problem sometimes with mail sent from EVE, but anything sent from EVE Gate web site works fine.)
The reason I say GÇ£read onlyGÇ¥ is because reading posts sent from peopleGÇÖs phones is bad enough. I donGÇÖt want to try to read posts typed with the PS3 virtual keyboard.
I would be fine with not including General discussion, as long a the Rookie Training Ground forum was included.
In my experience, people who read the Rookie Training Ground forum when they are new do better, improve faster, and are more likely to stay around than the people who donGÇÖt. Although it could be argued that the General Discussion forum might just scare people away.
