Mentors

Le badge des mentors sur Resonite.

Le programme de mentorat est basé sur le volontariat, géré par des volontaires et supervisé par l'équipe de modération. Les participants sont des volontaires qui aident a éduquer ou assister d'autres utilisateurs sur leur temps libre. Ils visent a fournir de l'aide et du support à l’entièreté de la communauté, en particulier les nouveaux joueurs ayant besoin de guidance. Les mentors agissent comme une barrière sociale pour les nouveaux arrivants.

What is a Mentor?

Un mentor est un membre volontaire de la communauté qui passe du temps a aider des joueurs de tout niveaux. Ils sont une part essentielle de l’expérience d'un nouveau joueur en renforçant l’atmosphère accueillante de la communauté.

Comment trouver un mentor

Les mentors peuvent être identifiés par leur nom unique vert dans le jeu et leur badge (montré ci-dessus), et peuvent être trouvés de plusieurs manières.

• Demander dans le Discord, dans le canal #questions-help.
• Inclure une requête pour un mentor ou généralement d'aide dans le nom de votre session. Quand vous ouvrez un mode, vous pouvez change son titre avec le défaut de "<nom d'utilisateur> Monde". Cliquer sur le champ va faire apparaître un clavier ce qui vous permettra de changer le nom du monde.

• Recognition of their Mentor role via a badge and nameplate color, enabling users in need of help to more easily seek them out.
• Access to the Resonite Volunteer Team Discord to receive Mentor-related announcements, updates, and to communicate and coordinate with other mentors and members of the other volunteer teams.
• Access to the Resonite Mentor Public Shared folder, with tools and resources to help users.
  • Mentors can also submit items for addition to this folder by contacting the Mentor Lead BigRedWolfy

How do I become a Mentor?

Mentor Resources

  • It is suggested to use the link in the Mentor Certification Center to fill out this form, as clicking it there will pre-fill most fields in the Application.

• Mentor Code of Conduct is a set of special rules for volunteers within the Mentor Program. The code of conduct is also listed below in its own translated section.

• The Mentor Matrix is a document displaying current Mentors, Mentor Trainees, their time zones, and their languages.

Mentor Code of Conduct

1. Follow the Resonite User Guidelines
2. Respect fellow Users
   1. Consider personal space, comfort, ear, and eye safety.
   2. Make sure to consider what the User you’re helping is actually interested in.
3. While acting as a Mentor, Avoid Biases and Conflict
   1. De-escalate if a situation drifts too far into a discussion/argument.
   2. Personal likes/dislikes and opinions should not be forced upon other Users.
4. Do not abuse the Mentor Role
   1. Do not lie about your rights, impersonate Moderators, or generally put yourself above other Users based on your Role.
   2. Avoid manipulating a User to follow personal beliefs/opinions on the basis of your Mentor Role.
   3. Being a mentor does not grant exclusivity in teaching users. Anyone can teach, and one should not override that teaching unless it violates Resonite Usage Guidelines.
5. Avoid disruptive Tools/Gadgets
   1. New Users shouldn't be overwhelmed by displacement gadgets (push tools/guns, gravity tools, hand/proxy grabbers) or loud/bright effects (such as realistic guns, flashbangs or the visual filters found on vapes/bongs).
   2. Similarly, a complex Multi-tool can eschew the new user experience and expectation, keep to simple or default tools when possible with new users.
6. Act polite and dignified
   1. Have patience with Users, especially when it comes to technical issues or them needing more time to understand. Do not become pushy.
   2. Remember that the badge comes with recognition and represents the Resonite platform to a degree.
7. Stay open to constructive criticism, listen to feedback
   1. Not every possible problem can be covered in the guidelines. If another User, fellow Mentor, or Lead approaches you with an issue, please be considerate and listen.

Not following the Mentor Code of Conduct as an established Mentor may result in consequences which can range from a warning to removal from the Program.

Removal Decisions will always be made by the Mentor Leads as a whole.
