Personally, I still remember my first time trying to play SL1. It was at night, and I ran into a gigantic fence that I couldn't get around while only being able to see two tiles out, and quit.

I also remember my first log-in after trying to reintegrate in Korvara after being in on hiatus for years. After finishing character creation, I was overwhelmed by being put in an unfamiliar place where I felt like I would be judged, and logged out pretty much immediately, only to come back and try roleplaying a few days later. And if I hadn't received plenty of help to make a profile and encouragement to come back, who knows if I ever would have.

As veterans, I absolutely think it's your responsibility to reach out to new players, players without profiles, players who might not roleplay fluently, etc. Trying to get started without a foundation is extremely difficult and getting snubbed once can make someone leave for good.
