    Spawn is not functional. Whoever built it did so with the art of it in mind but not the functionality.

    I have played Meepcraft for ages now but when I returned to see this spawn I was lost, confused and frustrated.

    Why are all the play modes in an unlabeled ring? Why do things like the bank have a hub but not towny etc? For a new player this does not cater to them staying for long and I feel like this has a lot to do with our current population issues. The Airship also seems like a vast waste of a hub, it is less important than most of the other playstyles and yet it gets one. The only thing I feel was made with functionality in mind is the player shop. Just my two cents.

    P.S. Too much pink. Way too much pink.

    I have thought about the spawn, I personally love the art style now, I do want the spawn we had through Meep networks (not the island in the sky) but the towny spawn. That was my favorite. It has everything, towny hubs, wild hubs, huge terrarium, mob arenas, creative hubs, casino maybe replaced for club meep and a huge bank, shop and villager trading. As well as looking cool. It also had that tree for parkour. I think that this would make the most sense and now we have the pholo plugin, we can use this instead of signs.

    No, spawn is great. Everything works well, and the portals are arranged so as to facilitate player movement. The layout is logical, everything's easy to get to, and it's not too complicated. Plus, modern quartz theme fits perfectly with the server! Especially considering the fact that Fuzzlr just spent $3000 on this spawn, I see no reason to change anything.

    Spawn is way too bright. Don't pay for a new one, use any of the excellent old ones. Also, vshop and minigames would boost population alot.

    Believe it or not I still get lost in the new spawn :(

    Ik that you spent like 3 grand on the spawn but that doesn't take from the fact that it's **** so please go back to the previous spawn because not a single person likes the current spawn.

    The new spawn is unnecessarily big, lacks block diversity, terrarium and other things are placed in an awkward location, ugly imo, the speed boost is annoying, etc.

    I liked the second spawn (official trailer spawn)(and the first spawn, but maybe the second spawn more). It wasn't confusing but it had the adventurous feel. It was a good size, had good location for many things. The concept of having the tutorial in the castle and when passed, you are released into the courtyard (the actual spawn) was cool. I like the diversity of blocks used and the simple architecture it had. The main design is fairly simple and just had a good feel all around.

    Honestly, I really dislike the new spawn. Don't even know why money was spent on it.

    We could've done simpler spawns like the 2012 and 2013 spawns. I liked those better.

    I wish we had a spawn like the 2012 one, but not exactly the same. New blocks and all. I still get lost in the current one, but after like 1 hour in 2012 spawn I knew where everything was.

    In my opinion, any spawn between 2012-2014 was good. They are investing in making a spawn which nobody really likes. Don't get me wrong, I like the stlye, it looks good, just not very, interesting. It's a very small place which no one really cares about, in fact even that last spawn we had was better. And this one is quite plain, it's mostly white and that's it. In my opinion, I don't like this one, it can be improved or changed. But in my opinion, this is by far the worst spawn we've had in terms of creativity and design. It's just a bunch of white blocks with some satelites and a big lava ball in the middle.

    2012-2013(the one with the functional terrarium) spawn should just return if there were ever to be a new spawn again.
    The wafers build of late 2013 new meep wasnt half bad when the shop was in the floor alongside the headshop.

    More than half of our community is here for nostalgic reasons, lets honor that.
    I know the filesave exists somewhere, I have been in old spawn on new meep... ;)

    My fav spawn was the one from the Meepcraft Trailer. 2013, I feel like we need to go back to our roots, A towny server

    I really liked the last spawn - the warps were simple, separated into three easy groups, portals, it was all well and good. It was so fun to explore and I spent so many hours in last spawn. I was still finding rooms and stuff I hadn't seen before.
    I hate this spawn in all honesty. It's plain, too bright, you claim it's easy to get to everything because it's all the same distance but really, airship has a focus but towny doesn't?

    I miss old spawn.

    Yeah we need the spawn from the 2013 trailer. Every single person that has ever played meep back then can agree that that is the best spawn we have EVER had.

    I want the old spawn, but I mean the old spawn. For the love of god no remakes, look what Treyarch did to Nuketown.

    One of the old spawns, one of them that made it easy for new people on the server to get to know the basics of it and how meepcraft works, it would be so much easier to understand and less new members would leave the server straight away probs.
