    A short explanation of what you want to teach and your current skill area in what you're teaching: I want to teach everything that people need. If the new players reach out to me, I'll reach out to them. :). I'd say I'm skilled in pretty much everything except stocks, features, and teamspeak.

    How do you plan on teaching this subject: Just by helping people out in general. When they PM me about how to play, or if they talk in /ch l at spawn, I'll be willing to help. Really I'll just be doing what I already have been doing in the past.

    Comments/Concerns: This is a really nice idea :). But calling people noobs... that's just a tiny bit insulting, isn't it?

    Would you like to teach?: Everything but teamspeak, sportsbook and stocks.

    A short explanation of what you want to teach and your current skill area in what you're teaching: The only thing I don't know the majority of things in is the 3 things listed above.

    How do you plan on teaching this subject: Starting out with the basics that they don't know then slowly moving up and specialising in what they are interested in. For example for basic build if they liked modern we would begin to work on modern far more rather than rustic (which is good cause I kinda suck at rustic and medieval).

    Comments/Concerns: I agree with sub.. call them something else rather than a nub :p

    and, the first step to overcoming a problem, is to admit you have a problem!

    So if you admit you're a noob at something, and post here for help, it's a good step into the process of achieving your goals!

    Thankyou for dedicating your time to helping the players of EcoCityCraft!

    Everything but building, TS, and SG
    A short explanation of what you want to teach and your current skill area in what you're teaching:
    I really like helping out builders with there questions, there isn't a single non-builder in my town. I always answer their questions about ECC. Most of the time I'm on the 1st page of top portfolios, I understand how features are bought(although I don't have any!), I am up money in lotto, and I know a lot of the applications requirements to be accepted.
    How do you plan on teaching this subject:
    I would explain in pm as much as I can, but if I can't I will provide links to tutorials/staff-created threads.
    Comments/Concerns:
    Not right now.

    Ign: Exilenela or Alenelixe depending if you read from left to right or from right to left.

    A short explanation of where you're currently at in what you want to be taught:
    What's sg? I am nowhere as it's a not a place? How do you get started in a town? I currently have been started in around 30 towns, but nevertheless, halp! What are donation features? I am nowhere as it's not a place? How to build? I can build cube houses and that's it. How to apply for applications? People tell me I suck at this. I am approximately nowhere when it comes to applying for applications. How to manage towns? I don't know how people do this, my owner commands don't work for some reason :( What's EcoCityCraft? How do I manage money? Currently, I throw millions into sportsbook. I need some lottery tips. How to not lose in a 100v1? What are stocks? It's not even close to Christmas yet, why the hell do you have stockings up? What's sportsbook? I don't exactly know, but it sounds like school and athletic activity combined. Gross. And what's teamspeak? To teamspeak or not to teamspeak, that is the question. Thanks in advance for the help!

    Comments/Concerns: What's the [builder] thing next to my name?


    Other: Thanks, this is nice of you guys :)

    -EDIT- Anyways, just to explain, I made this application really just to aknowledge the good that you guys are doing for ECC. This is what makes our server great. While I don't need help in everything, I would love to be coached by someone in sg, thanks!

    Thankyou for dedicating your time to helping the members of EcoCityCraft.

    I personally feel as if you're trolling within this application.

    I have made this thread to ensure everyone who needs help gets it, and I feel that the boxes that were ticked by you, you all ready know significant information about.

    Despite all this, @zr2002 will be helping you, aswell as @creeperheat

    Any problems with this please contact me and it will be changed.

    Thankyou

    Would you like to teach?: Survival Games

    A short explanation of what you want to teach and your current skill area in what you're teaching:
    I would like to teach how to use the kit, Spy in survival games and some basic "Strategies" - lacking of a better word - My skill area in Survival games is I'd say decent, better than an average player but not as good as people such as backtothepast, 3point14mp, etc. But I've chosen to teach the kit Spy becuase I've gotten to #34 on Sg leaderboard using Spy, CC, and Buffer. And of course with @Ninjaboy3113 <3



    How do you plan on teaching this subject:
    I would invite the player to an ingame mcmmo party, or just pm them and I'd play Sg against them while they're using spy, and I'd figure out how good they are before teaching them how to set up their inventory for using spy, or if they're past that I can teach how to avoid players and some combat strategies



    Comments/Concerns:
    I'd like to be able to have a say in who I'm grouped with so I can be comfortable with my partenr
    I'm not always on so if the player wants someone consistantly on I'm probably not a good choice
    I'd like the player I'm partnered with to have spypp and atleast bfrp
    Anyway, thanks for taking the time to read this
