Realms Guides

From Sharune Wiki

A realms guide is a player that has received special status within the game. It is a player that devote some of his/her time online to help new players get into the game. They receive some special things/abilities to use when working with their tasks.

- A private global communication channel "mchat".
- Alerts when new players are requesting name approval.
- "approve" and "deny" commands to administrate name approval system.
- Alerts when new players are created and enters the game.
- A special command called "mentor".
- An own "Realms Guide" guild hall in most larger cities. Including bulletin boards and other special features.
- A special flag in the who-list.
- A personal title of their own choice. (Max 4 color changes). 
- Access to the "MUTE" command, to mute people that abuse communication rules.

A realms guide must at all times do her/his best to help new players with any things/questions related to the game. They should never act ignorant or with a bad attitude. Not everyone is suited to be a realms guide. They are always monitored by the game administrators and all their special commands are logged and displayed to the admin staff when they are used. Using any special commands or powers in an abusive way (not as they are meant to be used) will result in loosing the realms guide title AND demotion of at least 5 levels. Repeated use or lack of respect for the rules or game administrators will result in more harsh penalties. How to become a realms guide: First you need to have a character of at least level 35+. Then you need to get at least three existing realms guides/immortals voting for you to become one. You need to talk to these realms guide yourself and get them to post an issue in the realms guide forums/to the immortals where they can discuss if you are suitable as a realms guide. Then one of the existing realms guides need to petition to the immortals and tell us that you are deemed to be suitable for a realms guide position.

WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO AT ALL TIMES AS A REALMS GUIDE:

Being a realms guide does not mean that the only things you are supposed to do is sitting around and answering questions on the newbie help channel. Being a realms guide involves more responsibility and you need to ACTIVELY (every day where possible) meet new players, guide them around the game IN PERSON, eye-to-eye. All realms guide have the mentor command and MUST use it to travel to new players and greet them and guide them into the game.
