−

In the past, we've found that new members sometimes rush to get through mentorship, putting more emphasis on "when do I get released" than on learning club rules. We've even received questions about the guidelines for getting off membership from persons who hadn't even been assigned mentors yet. This trend was rather disturbing to us: it put undue pressure on our mentors and resulted in some members being on their own before they were ready.

+

All new members will remain under mentorship until their mentor is confident that they have a solid grasp on club rules, canon, and posting etiquette. There is not a certain time frame in which this will happen.

−

In response to this, we have instituted the following policy:

+

Most Mentors will release a mentee when:

+

# They've released 3 consecutive posts to the mailing list that did not require any form of edits

+

# They feel the mentee has a thorough grasp on the way the club functions

−

All new members will remain under mentorship until their mentor is confident that they have settled in. Some things a mentor looks for to determine readiness are error-free co-posts, solid canon, and a mentee's willingness to ask about questionable storylines before jumping into them. 

The leadership of Triad Weyrs respects the intuition of our mentors, so at any time a mentor may contact the Council with any reservations as to releasing a new member from mentorship even after the above criteria have been met. The Council will review the information presented and decide whether an extended mentorship is warranted.

Releasing a mentee simply so they can "get rank" will result in a severe lecture from the Council and possible removal of your status as a mentor. We have had too many difficulties in this area to allow any leeway.

−

If mentees want to get off mentorship quickly and think they know their stuff, they are welcome to produce posts in enough quantity to get off mentorship. It is not the mentor's responsibility to ensure they write enough to complete a mentorship before certain ranks open up. Triad Weyrs has far too many differences from other clubs to allow leeway in Rule #3. Just because a member can follow the rules other clubs does not mean they will immediately grasp the intricacies of the scenario and rules woven for Triad.

+

Mentors should not release a member from mentorship if any of the above are in question.
