Mental Mentors is a group created by Mentors for Mentors.  
[[Image:MMlogo3.jpg‎]]


Mentals is the brain child of JayJay Talamasca, Kai Sachertorte and a group of Mentors who worked together on what was then one of only two Help Islands.


In truth the group came about largely due to our frustration at the limitations placed on the main mentor IM channel due to its size and the necessity of its strict guidelines.

So Mentals was born, we decided we needed a channel of our own where we could ask questions offer help and generally talk about whatever.. and spam, to vent, joke and share ideas and problems above and beyond mentor issues.  
It is hoped that this will be the place where the Mental Members visit to find SL related information that they can use in their individual Mentoring capacities.


Within months we had grown to have over 200 members, now it is closer to 700 and still growing with the influx of newly trained volunteers.

On Friday 4th Janaury 2008, Rails Baily was made a co-owner of the Mental Mentors Group, reason being, Jayjay could no longer give the group his total commitment due to Real Life commitments.  
This is the training arm of the Mental Mentors group and was created specifically to deal with residents that wish to become Mental Mentors Mentor Volunteers.

A formal charter for Mental Mentors was introduced and the number of the officer stream was reduced from 71 to approximately 25.

Some tweaking took place during the course of the reorganisation of the group.  
Was created as the group that will provide former Second Life Mentors with the sense of community that they rely on to get information that new and seasoned residents rely on.


Noticeable changes were made to the group, such as : Retired Mentors will be allowed to stay in Mental Mentors, as a form of recognition for their invaluable help to the SL community at large, and as a extensive knowledge base for the mentals group.

Concept Behind the Mental Mentors Group Page

It is hoped that this will be the place where the Mental Members visit to find SL related information that they can use in their individual Mentoring capacities.
