Volunteer introductions?

Something I loved about Experience Project was the ability to welcome new members to the site and act like guides for them. It allowed people to interact right off the bat, got rid of any nervousness, helped gently break any illusions, and above all else helped new people on the site see how everything worked, as well as letting them talk to someone experienced about things they may need help with, like 'how to leave a comment' or something.
I think this feature should be added back into Similar Worlds, with a similar design in that there's a long waiting list to weed-out any of the uncommitted ones who put their names down for a laugh. I see new faces on this site every day, it'd be good to interact with them more and make this more of an open, social system. What do you think?
