Earn2Life.com members can also earn money by helping other residents working with E2L.

The Earn2Life.com Support Desk is located in the E2L in-world office. Members earn money by sitting at the Support Desk and replying to other residents' questions and queries.

Support Desk requirements (please replace with recent screenshot!)

Need Help? Touch Here!

If someone requires immediate assistance they may click the yellow "Need help?" sign located in front of every Support Desk chair. This sends a notice to the support person and gives them a specific amount of time (15 seconds) before kicking them out of the chair for being unresponsive. So pay attention!

Support Desk Etiquette

Due to the nature of the Support Desk job it is vital that you be of a friendly nature and courteous to residents and visitors seeking your assistance. Providing valuable and reliable help to all members promptly and maintaining an optimistic attitude will win you the respect of your peers and a good reputation with the boss. Being rude, indifferent or uninformed may result in you being banned from using the Support Desk chair. Probably the most important trait is just to remain active! Look around the office occasionally; ask in the local chat if anyone needs help; if you see someone new, call them by their name and let them know you are here to help.

If you just need to earn Lindens and do not want to help your peers, these chairs are not for you, since you are supposed to be helping other people browsing around the office. Your goal is not to camp on camping chairs; it is to provide assistance to other residents. Even if you disable the Away feature, people will check in on you, and will ultimately kick you from the chair if you are found to be Away. This is a privilege and not a right, so do not abuse the system.

As the Support Desk is a great spot to acquire new apprentices it is quite popular and frequented by up and coming masters, so it is also a great place to meet successful E2L members and learn their strategies for earning.
