I would like to join, I will ask http://nmaps.net/user/saif303 if he eould be up to it. I actually don't think I'm good enough. though I would be someone who would welcome a mentor ^^

and i am, even though im organizing this? i think not!
i agree with seven_two. ive been trying to change all "n00b"-like references in the last few days, and just changed the title. you dont even have to ask them, you can just keep tabs on them and comment each of their maps. also, im sorry about the posts that seemish ego-hurtish. im trying to change it. to all users who have commented: change all "n00b-like" things in your comments to new users.

Better than the one you have here. And mentoring anothony_s is pretty easy. And he actually listens and he seems to be dramatically improving ;)

I have also got anthony_s on the forums. He's got N+ pix but I doubt he know anything about it lol!

ummmm.....
YOU read the above messages
Darkandroid asked for a mentor, not to mentor. There's a difference.
Now, be a good little organizer and answer his question.

whoops. im busy so ask any other member who has their name here.

just pm them and ask them to helpfully comment on your maps, and tell you what you could improve on (and what your doing well).
pretty much it, add something if you can think of it

I'll mentor him aswell as anthony, mentoring is fun. I helped out Kaylab a lot. I had a long break from map making. In that time he doubled my quality and quantity in map o_O. I feel like helping out more people. Probably GTM's cousin aswell.

Since I am starting over and reviving this thread, and I am only doing it because they locked the new one.
Thanks Calcium, now I have to switch users every time I want to edit the main page.

OK - This will go on as before, but people who want to sign up go to the thread (In the community) *Link to be posted*

I'm always more than willing, but obviously on this account and not my old one. So if ever you know anyone who's stuck or feeling crappy about their mappy, direct 'em my way.
