Now i was thinking there are alot of people that don't receive the help they need to make the game enjoyable for them. I know because that was one of the reasons i had quit. But anyway back on track. I made this topic so if people need help they can put what they need and what time they are available to do it down.
Also listing stuff as requirements to do it and such other things as level they need or jobs, also listing the job and level of it they will be using.

Now if people do that other people that also might need to get it done can come here look at the entries and if they can help or need it also they post what they are referring to and if they can comply to it.

Now when i thought it over it sounded like a great idea but who knows. Well anyway here is an example of what someone would do.

<post starts> < name here>
Hello I need help doing Windurst Mission 6-2. My job is <job here> <level >
Its a BCNM fight witch needs 6 people around the late 58-60+ to win eficiently. Requirements for this mission are. You must be Windurst and you must be on the mission or have completed it already.
The time i am usually available is around 4:30 PM Eastern time.
Thank you.
<end post>

Thats about it then someone would read that and say well yea i need that too and I'm on around that time. then they would post inquiring about that post and there 2 people already got it started. Well thank you and i hope my idea wasent too stupid >.<

There aren't enough people on this forum for this to work. Just get a good LS and do stuff. The only way to get all the people for missions is with a Mission set PT or shouting in Jeuno. Despite what you'd like to think, this game requires work in order to obtain rewards.

hmm well can u edit it to let people who are willing to help post here too. say myself, im wlling to help. so id post the ff

<name> <job that can help with level>
<time available>
<conditions>
<help comment>

for example:
Alsarius 61DRG 51BST 52PLD
most NA morning and night
Please be ready with all the info and prereqs needed. Be respectful, no fees required.
i'm willing to help as long as the person knows where they want to go and what they want to do. Also, i cant help if im busy leveling but try asking me first by giving me a tell in game.

oh and il agree, dont toss the idea away too quickly. i think dyer should be given credit for trying to start such a noble thing.

I thnik irs a great thing to start up, but I just don't think it will work with the low % of people that post or read on these forums. It was a nice thing for you to try though, if only PlayOnline provided Forums...

Try this...

The premise is there. The fan base might not be big but easily solved if spread around

mm that looks promising but i myself have never heard of it O.o
here is another idea, why not make a help out LS. if people dont know people actually volunteer for help on the forums, why not let ourselves be known ingame :p

although to be honest i dont know how well it'll work. but its worth a try right? (the prob with this approach is that we all have our own main LSs to be active in so... yeh.. there >.>)
