Better yet, if you gave a crap about new players, make an alt and teach players on the academy level, squad with them after they leave the academy. There's a more OP weapon out there on the field and it costs 0 SP/ISK/AUR: experience. Not all are willing to learn, but the ones that are could be your next war buddy or that guy that totally saves your corp with a clutch win when PC actually does matter. I have alts that are sub 3 million SP and I can still hold my own because I know how to play the game, if CCP gave new players the opportunity to learn as well instead of this kiddie table BS before they get thrown to the sharks they would have a chance as well. Want to save newberries? Teach them yourself and stop blaming everyone else because there's nothing better to do but pubstomp because matchmaking was never a priority.

There are already 3 or 4 good corps that do that very thing...far better then i ever could.

...

yet it is not working.

Go ask those corps what new player retention is like.

It's not working because not everyone who cares bothers to help. You don't even have to be in a corp to do this, just make an alt and squad up with newberries in the academy a few hours a week when your main is capped. So far I taught an assault that if we wants to stop getting ran over, spec into AV, snipers how to help their team instead of just racking up kills and countless other players that there's more to this game than assault suits and ARs. At the same time, their enthusiasm is slowly restoring my faith in this game's future, little by little...

Yup...but if you and other vets go there and not in Pubs that will change very quickly. I support your idea,unfortunately,there's no honor among thieves here in New Eden. Without the "true" meta game aspect of Dust,one of the only things that people are playing for in Dust is their KDR.I would suggest taking KDR out so that people aren't constantly trying to pad their stats,but then we would lose more people than we already have. Stats should have been reset for uprising anyway since Chrome was full of so many exploits. I almost wish that FF was on 24/7 so the stat padders can STFU and start working as a team.
