:Interesting idea. You could also point at [[Eastonwood]] with its very large number of NTs and hospitals, and take a look at resident group [[Malton College of Medicine]] as an example of a teaching group that has become good at sucking up and educating newly arrived survivors.

Why so specific? There's no need to address specific groups unless it's a concrete example of what you're explaining, not where it's not being applied. I'd scrap the use of MFD as an example of anything {{Tiny|(other than a waste of time)}} and just refer to how firefighting is a useful skill to start with. Perhaps also specify that it's a skill that isn't recognsied as great until the game's been played a bit so new firefighters may tend to be secondary alts of players who've already started elsewhere. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 22:40, 12 February 2011 (UTC) | |||
:I think its that specific because rillie bank was what got me started on this. (Sadly its not a fire damaged building). I could probably lose the MPD bit. As for the other comment, I;ve never actually seen stats on what class people start as, so I can't really comment on secondary alts. --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 22:45, 12 February 2011 (UTC) | |||

- Interesting idea. You could also point at Eastonwood with its very large number of NTs and hospitals, and take a look at resident group Malton College of Medicine as an example of a teaching group that has become good at sucking up and educating newly arrived survivors. Practical problem with Woodgate Avenue would be that The Dead 2.0 have had a very tight grip on Dunell Hills for about two years now - a static group with a lot of freshly spawned low-levels would be a buffet, not a force to be reckoned with. -- Spiderzed▋ 14:11, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
