    Saves the staff members/other helpful users at spawn a lot of typing, and may increase the influx of new players, great idea!, quote from sk saying it's s great idea, I feel the -1 was out of spite, but accept your opinion, appreciate the feedback

    I had time to think about it. Also, since then I have joined other servers with this suggestion implemented. I personally hated being forced into a tutorial and left immediately.

    Simple fix: Spawn in the tutorial, first thing you see slightly to the side is "Don't want to go through tutorial? Click here/step here to go straight to spawn!"

    Then we must balance the amount of users that are annoyed enough by clicking a single sign to leave vs the amount of players confused enough without direction that leave.

    I do agree spawn is confusing. That is a separate issue however.

    Many users leave because they are confused and recieve no help, less would leave, if any, if they started by spawning in the tutorial

    I mean, I took a screen shot of 3 different builders asking for assistance right after I posted it, I checked to see if mods we're at spawn, they were. They did not help.

    Historically, I have always done my best to address questions in the servers I've been active in for new players, but that is difficult when they are stuck in local chat rather than public and I am not near spawn. Staff can't always be present, they are human too, and all players that are part of this community should also pitch in an effort and create an inviting atmosphere for new players. This helps gain more loyal, long term players.

    Wouldn't it be a lot easier to leave the tutorial than to figure out what you're doing if you don't visit the tutorial?

    If I was a user who had interest in a economy server who wanted to know how it worked, why would I not like spawning where it tells me everything I could possibly need to know? The people who wouldn't like it are the ones who have no interest in staying long term.

    Basicly you're saying this would annoy some users that it up puts them in a tutorial. I'm saying can't they just easily leave the tutorial and for the users that need it they can stay and learn from it.
