Lets talk spawn

So it has become quite apparent that lots of people are upset with our current spawn and past ones, I am also but this thread isn't going to be about my opinion. We are messing up in some parts of spawn and fixing problems in other parts of spawn.

So what are our problems?

• Hubs for pointless things, like airship
• To big, we need speed boost to move around
• Terrarium is kinda in awkward placement
• Important things are hub less
• Not community centered.

We are trying to construct spawn in a more of pretty contest rather then functional contest. Which if you don't know, isn't the way a spawn should be built. I think we can all agree that below is an ALMOST perfect spawn.

Why is this spawn great you may ask? Well lets look,

• In the center of the spawn there is a clear area for the community to trade, host drop parties, meet with friends etc.
• Meepcrafts top things were up in your face so you could get to them without confusion and quickly.
• There's a donator/staff lounge right next to spawn so you can see what's going on, and future donators can know what to expect from the donator lounge
• Things like the bank and creative warps are further off because they aren't used all the time.
• Its just a nice looking functional place overall without to much crazy designs.

So why haven't we changed back to spawns like this?

I'm honestly not quite sure, incompetence maybe? Or that we spent so much money on this new spawn. But that means were gonna keep using something that doesn't function? Like what @Muunkee - Alexia said, Why use a product that's broken just because you spent money on it.

For some reason the admins Fuzzlr and the architects can't see that each new spawn they produce is just plain bad. Now I'm not gonna lie, these spawns are works of art, but that's whats so bad, there art nothing more just something to gaze at and be impressed by.

They need to stop trying to make a pretty spawn but make a functional spawn, because unlike other servers spawn isn't just a type of limbo were players join just to leave, but its a community area that makes half of meepcraft function.

I may be warned, banned or other like other members that have spoken the truth, I don't really care if no one else agrees I just want to speak my opinion so maybe change can be made.


(I'm going to be making a thread later on about the avocado or suger)

 

I personally like the previous spawn (the one currently showcased on the websites header) the best out of all of them. Granted, I haven't been around long enough to experience all 4(?) but I can surely agree with you on your assessment. While it is nice to have some main attractions close to the center spawn, its also incredibly blended into the smaller attractions. Things like Towny aren't showcased as prominently as the Airship for example. Which to me, makes no sense at all. One of the reasons I liked the most recent spawn before this new one came into play is the boldness of each attraction. The attractions that needed to be displayed boldly (Towny, MiniGames) Were. And the less bold ones (Airship, Mob Farm) were blended into the spawn in convenient yet ideal locations. Anyway just thought I'd share my opinion here. I highly doubt there are any plans to switch back to previous spawns. I think at this point our best bet would be to suggest modifications to the current spawn to better suit the communities needs rather than assume an altogether spawn switch.

 

Yes all very true, the only problem with the last spawn was with it being so big newer members could become very lost.
