Praised be the day I actually said something considered funny/accurate.
We all know, that new players MUST learn from more experienced ones to learn efficiently.
This doesn't imply veterans are obliged to teach them everytime, no matter what.
And this says the guy who usually starts with calm explanation, how things in this game work, not bashing people.
I just hate when people are supposed to not have choice ffs.
--- Quote ---I know you apologized Schwalbe, but I'll say it anyway. Every time I've crewed for BlackenedPies he was very friendly to newbies and crew in general, giving them clear instructions and a lot of helpful tips. I don't believe I have crewed for a captain that would do better job at managing his crew than Blackened.

I'm not the guy who is firmly convined that apology is something that should automatically cancel any trial of bashing a mistake that deserves it. It was my mistake, and I have no bloody clue why I thought Blackened was behaving the other way. Which proves only how insane and delusional I'm becoming. As if I were completely sane at any given point of my pathetic existance

If you guys really want to get rid of the "problem" of Novices, just get Muse to stop selling the game. Then there's no way a newbie can buy the game, skip the awful tutorials and/or have no other Novices to play and learn the basics with, then "ruin" the game for all you vets.

There's no problem with novices playing the game and ruining it for veterans; the problem is novices piloting the ships when unprepared and unready and ruining the game for everybody in the lobby. Damning his team to lose over and over again as he is bounced from side to side in a lobby and passively stacking the matches in the other team's favor...
Last night a guy named ChildishRambino was playing with me and his friend, who was absolutely new to the game: zero matches played. A fairly new captain himself, he's played with me before and knows I'm a good teacher when I have willing learners, and he dumped her into my lap / onto my ship in order for me to teach her the game. I asked if she played the tutorial. She, of course, did not, and admitted it, so I went over the basics with her and, lo and behold, she played all evening and did a GREAT job (for a scrub, of course ;D). She freely admitted to being overwhelmed at the beginning because the game is something that needs to be learned; information must be shared, for everybody's benefit. I think, as a human being (and not just one who plays video games), it IS the job of those who have experience (read: veterans) to pass on that knowledge to those who do not (read: nubs). To do otherwise is selfish and lazy.
We are a community; a community of gamers. We must do what is best for the community. What is best for the community? To prevent new players from piloting ships when they are not yet prepared to do so. I'll gladly sacrifice some newbie freedom for some lobby security. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one...
