Pretending to Mentor a team is a serious issue. I have seen it happen in the past. Rage as a team, has never offcially started a team, but taken under its wings, what other teams abandon. If you notice, (and it is blatently obvious on these boards) we have very close relationship with Paragon 571. To my knowledge, they were started by another team, and once the team wrote them a letter of recomend for the chairmen's award, were left in the dust. Paragon is now doing find and surviving, but they had a point where times were tough, and pretending to mentor a team helps no one but yourself, but that doesn't even help you much. We currently mentor team 1373 EO Smith, however they have asked for little help, but we do whatever asked whenever asked. And that's different, they seem to want to do it on there own, and we're here to basically be a shoulder to lean on when things get tough, we call it mentoring, because that's what we want to do, we we are, when THEY want us to, but we won't force ourselves onto them. We have also mentored 809 Cheney, and continue to have a good relationship with them, and anyone else who wants t obe friends is welcome!!
Anyway, that's my take, but mentoring can be either good or go sour, hopes is all goes well
