The Neglected Science Mentoring Project
Idea approved by 6zuzie6.

Hello fellow scientists! I started this idea in the suggestions thread, and not even an hour later it was approved by 6zuzie6! I was very excited and ran over here immediately to start it up.

Intro~
TNSMP[abbreviation] is a great project for newbies and old members alike! Though it is aimed mainly at getting new members help and education about NDs, but old members are welcome, though they have to ask, unlike newbies. When a new member joins, I will post in their intro and'or PM them and assign them a mentor, and telling them who it is. Then I will tell the assigned mentor, and they are to PM their apprentice, introducing them to the site, explaining all about NDs, linking them here to explain it in more depth, and to explain to them that they have a mentor. There is no certain amount of time a mentor has a certain apprentice, just however long it takes them to get through the curriculumn/classes. Yes, there are classes and curriculumn that are reviewed/graded. At random times, there are pop quizes. When the MENTOR think their apprentice is ready, I will PM them a "final exam"[everyone takes the SAME one] and the apprentice must get a 70 or higher on the OVERALL COURSE GRADE to pass, and they must pass the exam as well. I am the one that grades apprentices' work, and then it is sent back to the apprentice via their mentor. All mentors are REQUIRED to have a mentor banner in their signature, and apprentices receive two different banners they may or may not put in their sig.: one banner that states they have an TNSMP Mentor, and one after they pass that says they have passed the TNSMP metoring mentor program.

[kiffren]

It looks good. I'm not going to ask for a mentor since I have this weird thing about figuring stuff out for myself...and I stalk the chat. But yeah, I like the idea, and you've put some thought into it. Good job.

[6zuzie6|Yami]

May I ask to be added to the second post.

6zuzie6|AiFarrah with 2 apprentices

-Itazuk-Zazuro
-Best-Naruto

I think Itazuk-Zazuro is about ready to take the test.

[LightningRip]

Thanks kiffren!

You will be added immediately, 6zuzie6! Your apprentices will be listed beside your name, and on the Current Apprentice List. I will send you the final exam as soon as it is finished, and has been proof-read!

~LightningRip~

[Siryuki]

This is a very nice project, Its annoying how many pms I get a day from people asking me to "gief" them a nd.
I could collaborate if you want

[LightningRip]

Sure, and thanks, Siryuki! If you have any ideas, feel free to express them here or via PM! P.S.: Would you like to become a mentor[mentors are mods and admins who are willing to take on apprentices].

[skatezedly]

Hmm...
I think I'm going to ask for a mentor!
This looks pretty helpful!

[LightningRip]

I will take you as my apprentice. I will send you a welcome PM as soon as possible, I'm about to go eat dinner!

[Alexiel-sama]

I want a mentor. What do I need to do?

[LightningRip]

Just ask! You can be mine. I'll PM you.

EDIT: Skatezedly, Alexiel-sama, you have both been PMed. Also, I wanted to report that I PMed someone named Imhelpful a few days ago, but have not received a reply yet.

-pokes thread-
I would like a mentor ^^ I'm not having the best of luck with my experiments, and maybe learning a bit more will help

[sairi123]

I'd like a mentor pretty please~
been wondering how to get an ND for a long time, and i feel it'd be safe if i had someone help with my first attempt ^_^

[Leetle Neglected Dragon]

I would like to suggest making "forms" for people to "apply" for being either a mentor or to be mentored. It makes it look a lot more professional. I would also like to suggest that mentors should have a requirement to become one. A certain amount of time with ND Scientists or maybe certain number of ND's turned, survived or have. I will try and make a nice format to use for this because I find it much nicer. *Goes to make forms*
