Thread: No more green dits. Say hello to our mentors

Someone once asked Chuck Norris if he found that wherever he went he had to constantly prove himself to everybody. Every time he went into a bar was there some bad ass dude who was going to prove he was some Hollywood Star and nothing more.

His reply was that number one when he's out he keeps a very low profile and he is never trying to prove anything to anybody and the very few times he was ever called out he was usually able to diffuse the situation in a peaceful manner. The very few times he had to defend himself he did it in the most conservative manner possible.

I would apply this to our mentor system. Some guys who have a lot of knowledge and who sit back and give conservative advice where they think it would be helpful and guys who aren't trying to prove anything to anyone. Their reputation speaks for them.

As far as worries about marginalizing other members that's ridiculous. No one whether newbie or advanced is going to just accept what any one member says as the gospel truth. I would dare say even when Lynn gives honing advice people will evaluate it and use it as they see fit.

You gotta have faith guys and give the system a fair chance.
