An automated system which is triggered during a new player's first three logins: -automatically matches the new player with a veteran character (cumulative level 500 or more) on the server. Both sides have the option to accept/decline. -if the mentor declines, it will continue searching for an available player unless the new player chooses to disable the buddy-finder -the basic idea is to provide new players with guidance--not only to show them the ropes (as in the case of an automated tutorial), but to get them truly excited about the game:)
-the buddy box could be displayed as a relatively unobtrusive, tiny window in the top right hand corner, much like the in-game clock
-if both sides accept, the mentor is teleported to the newbie
-it should contain a mentor rating system (and perhaps even rewards), as well as a mechanism by which to report terrible mentors/undesirable conduct towards newbies (perhaps simply a 0-star rating, or possibly something more elaborate)
