if i didn't know the people on the server and had never seen what the server is capable of, I probably would have said
" Egh, this spawn looks like it was stuck together in a hurry... what else does this server not care about? I think I'm going to follow the signs and see... O.o that's the market... its pillars and wood structures how long did it take them?? a day?? they really must not care about there integrity, how can i trust my buildings to people that made this... they probably don't care how my home looks... I'm gunna find a different server..."

It could at least use some improvement, such as, corners that aren't squares use stairs to give it detail, lava lighting in the ceiling with water running down the walls into a small stream going to the fountain in the middle, small stuff that makes the spawn more interesting. simple

same thing with areas like east town. You have World edit for a reason... how about using it to help the guests get materials rather then just making a giant quarry out of sand that doesn't even look natural... And people figure out that one torch harvests a column of 30 sand or more and suddenly we hear of people dieing from falling off a cliff outside of eastown...If I cared about this then I garrenty others feel the same way.

Stuck together in a hurry you say? We pulled all nighters for a week to get the spawn and the server ready. Your logic is so flawed it is ridiculous. So people will leave because of the spawn *checks players, see 130 for a Wednesday* I think you might be wrong on that one.

By the way, I am not liking the attitude you are portraying in your posts, can you please keep this a friendly argument?

DJAlphaWolf:
No offense but do you mean to tell me you walk around servers and the first thing you do is criticize every living detail?

morgosin:
sorry if i offended and i know you pulled all nighters but really it doesn't look nice... I know you can do better nick. and yes I do critique spawns because it gives a good first impression.

I guess I'm just disipointed because one of the best builders on classic made a rather disappointing spawn... I agree it doesn't have to be big and a complicated maze but... honestly you spawn on a side path... there isn't even anything nice to look at until you run all the way around the corner head down the stairs and turn around...

Also just like on Classic, Just because you worked hard on it doesn't mean its good enough.

So what your saying is that you want a big impressive spawn/build...maybe my project could fit fancies.

I would say that the castle looks far more impressive than any castle I've seen on any server, and its is a lot smaller that most castles. This is because of theme. The spawn has a theme and it suits the servers's spawn theme, and to me that's all that matters. Well there's 2 things that matter in my opinion.

1. its simple so guests can navigate themselves out
2. it looks good, not like a 13 year old spamming blocks everywhere.
