User blog comment:Nat25/Memories and Advice/@comment-5265143-20161111024904

The idea sounds okay, it's deffo not something that's extremely important nor is it something I believe we as a wikia should be working towards for a long time if ever. The idea would be long forgotten if everyone started to gather around and go 'yeah, sounds like a great idea!' after a week or two. If it actually did get to voting stage or whatever which I extremely doubt (or think is needed at all) and it got passed, it would be forgotten honestly. If this were ever going to really happen, I would just say that maybe a group of users would just come together to make a whole blog which would give advice to new people or a blog post would be made to tell people to comment some advice they have for new people then it would be added onto one blog post (which probably wouldn't have much info besides don't godmod, don't steal, etc.) rather than one page where anyone can just post on it (which is another issue, where's the cut off for who can post? do they need to be at least a level 5 to do the memories/advice thing or have been here for at least a year?). I'd think I think a lot of users (especially when they leave) give advice as they leave and if you have a newb as well, you would generally give them advice. Many old users also do this if a new person/old person were to come on to chat to ask something so the advice thing isn't anything new or needed. My thoughts on the memory thing is similar but I think it's even less needed than the advice thing. Honestly it'd be forgotten quickly plus people just kind of say these things in chat and then we laugh it off and it's forgotten again. This idea won't exactly 'stick'. There are a lot of things to consider. If I don't make much sense, I'll explain it a bit better if you'd like!
