Please IM Ninlil Xeltentat with questions or for objects.

Objects you need: Free Radar HUD Find the Radar HUD in your inventory, and right click on it to wear it. It will give you an indicator of the names of those that are around you, and then announce people's arrival to you in Local chat Up to date NPC Notecard This can be found at an NPC Notecard giver, or you can IM Ninlil Xeltentat for a copy.

Radar HUD: Wear the Free Radar HUD at the start of your shift to insure you know who is arriving in the area so that you can greet them. When to Greet: Use Local Chat to greet people within chat range as indicated by the HUD Mini-Map: Periodically check the minimap for people that are out of range, and IM them asking them if they'd like information. Remember, your mini-map is also a great resource to see where crowds of people are located, it would be a good idea to go over to where a lot of people are congregating, and ensure that they have a greeter in the area they are in. Occasional Announcement: Periodically announce that you can answer general questions for them, and when you don't know the answer, refer them to our website: [] and suggest that they attend our meetings. Suspicious Activities: Please report suspicious activities to Smash Lane, head of security. Also, see the Security Guidelines.

Greeting Etiquette:

Give nothing out Unless Asked; Please do not give unsolicited items to people, if you want to hand out the latest NPC notecards or NPC event related materials, ask our visitors first. No Off-Sim Event Advertisements: Please do not advertise off sim events during the time you are greeting for NPC Team Work: If there is another greeter within your chat range when you teleport into NPC, please move to an area out of their range and greet people there. Unless of course, there is an event. When there is an event, please move to the area that people are teleporting into, and ask the host of the event to assist them in greeting people. Representing NPC: As we all learned in our first jobs, please do not complain about anything in front of our visitors, address any issue you face with Ninlil Xeltentat and she will assist you with resolving the issue. We are here to put out a positive vibe so that visitors will be happy. If someone complains, please assure them that the issue is being taken care of, and contact someone that can help resolve it via IM.

Event Etiquette:

Volunteer to Help: If you would like to help greet during an event, please contact the organizer and let them know you are interested. Also ask if they have any canned greetings, or materials for you to hand out. Welcome Visitors: Welcome visitors and tell them what the event is about, also, ask them to be seated, and ask them to turn off any microphones as to not interfere with the event's sound. When Asked to Hand Out Materials: Remember to ask first before offering people inventory. If you have a large crowd and need to hand stuff out, ask them to IM you, and then just drag and drop from inventory into their IM box. This way, you won't miss anyone. Once the event has started: Only address newcomers in IM to free up the chat for the topic at hand.
