So, on discord somebody mentioned the following ...
And my mind got to clockwork grinding that idea out and it does have some merits especially as someone else said ...What would folks think about an IC "newcomer welcoming committee" organization? It could provide loans, clothes, advice...? Thoughts?
I came up with the following rough draft of how I started to see that and here is what I have gotten so far ...Making this an IC player driven initiative sounds excellent.

The Bovine Bull, Cow's and Calf Club should meet once per IC month [RL 1/week] say just before the weekly OOC meeting, to conduct business and be available to the Veal public.
The meeting should be opened by the Troubador Guild contact playing a bulls horn horn and closed with a prayer, spoken by the Holy Order's Guild contact.
The meeting should be held at either the almshouse or the university.
All of that ^^^^ was produced straight from the top of my dome over a couple of hours and I'd like to know from my fellow members whether its a load of bollocks, please state why, OR its a brilliant idea that can be added to creatively and expanded much more.
What say you eh?
