<system> [mail:] You've been removed from the list of Mentors since you haven't been in chat much lately. You're welcome to re-volunteer if you have time to chat after all.
Umm, what? I got this while I was in chat. I go on chat pretty often, I think people know that and I do talk to everyone.
So, what gives?

There have been numerous complaints about you, Flamey. We just thought it would be better to not let you influence new players. We were kinda hoping you'd take that chatmail as a valid answer, but no...
Just kidding Flamey ;)

I was chatting and playing as much as I ever have - at least a few hours a day. I was removed from the list of mentors, and I also hadn't been getting any mentees despite the fact I was almost always in chat, mostly not idle. I see there are now 5 mentees overall, instead of the near 100 there used to be on a normal basis.

yeah, I think it does it by how many mentees you get. There haven't been many so heaps of us have been left menteeless for a long time, maybe thats why.
53 new users in the past 24 hours
yet the mentor with the most mentees has only 2?
A bug maybe? :|

Not every new user completes the tutorial. Some are much faster to notice the lack of graphics and give up before being assigned a mentor ;)
Glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem :) Been a week without getting any mentees when I am very often in chat and active.
I got removed from mentor list as well, so I wouldn't feel too bad Flamey. Kinda made me mad, as I've been a mentor since the mentor program first started. Oh well.

Eh.. just rejoin. I saw the message and ignored it. I know I chat, I know I help my mentees and all new players who ask for it. So just rementor yourselves until whatever it is doesn't happen again =D
I didn't get a mentor when I joined and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
u can complete the tutorial and choose not to have a mentor by the way. I chose not and i'm sure others did to.

Umm, what? Since when?
I thought everyone was auto-assigned a mentor, whether they use them or not.
no cause i wasn't assigned to one and i'm not the only one

Are we just lacking A LOT of new players, recently?
Are we? Yes, we are.
New Players Forum has been awfully quiet and the number of active players this week is rather low, at 350.
May I also point out that the person with the most students right now has only 2?
That I have been in chat almost 100% of the time for two days and received no mentees?
There is no way players just stopped coming, bang, just like that.
Maybe I am missing something?

No Ash, just watch the NP chatroom - there are VERY few new players joining the game. We need more advertising!
