Guide System

The Guide System refers to a subsection of Spectrum on the RSI Website that allows players to request help from other players that have enlisted themselves as guides.

Procedure
As mentioned, the Guide System allows players to find help from others. It is essentially a matchmaking service that lets you find help in any of the following proficiencies:
 * Basics
 * Vehicle combat
 * FPS combat
 * Mining
 * Missions
 * Trading
 * Touring
 * Miscellaneous
 * Medical
 * Refueling

Both guides and guidees can select multiple proficiencies at the same time. Once a guide is listed, he can be found by others in the system, and can then initiate a session with them. Doing this automatically sends a friend request and opens a private message session with the other player.

Endorsement
A successful session depends on several different things:
 * A session has to be at least 30 minutes in length
 * At the end of the session, the guidee has to:
 * 1) Click "Yes" when asked "Did you go in game?"
 * 2) Select at least one proficiency they were helped in
 * 3) Submit the endorsement

Rewards
The Guide System, under normal circumstances, rewards the guide with different Titles (badges), based on the amount of successful guide sessions they've done. For details, see Titles.

During special promotions, like Foundation Festival there are extra rewards for guides and guidees, such as ship paints or in-game clothing.
