Personally I send a welcome tell to new players and offer my assistance if necessary. I am always willing to try and meet them in game an help if possible.

I have done this in the past sometimes I am able to spend more time with them and sometimes not do to prior commitments. If our levels are too extreme then
I might assist them with bandages or potions or if it is Cara the Druidess cast a few protection spells

There is one new player who ever since they logged on never acknowledged my welcome tell which is fine. However a few times my characters came in contact with their character I was ignored. This same player has done the same with others. Maybe they choose to play solo and that is fine.

To be fair we are not all mind readers. We cannot automatically know where players are. Also on weds and thursdays there are closed dm events which have been going on for sometime.

By the same token, if a newer player comes on and I am in the middle of rp or quest, I will tell them so and try and meet after I am finished. I also allow them to send me a tell if they have questions but to understand if I do not respond right away.

Even established players like myself come on and others are involved which is fine I know enough that I can do things on my own. It took me awhile to accept this fact as I prefer to interact with people rather then solo, but that is what is nice about Thay you can solo.

Many times DM's will come on and do spur of the moment things.

In order to be known the player needs to make themselves known.
