Feel like /pay and /sell should get votes, they're really pivotal commands as we are an economy server.

 

/sell
/help money
/help chat
/pm
/kit starter

 

I think simple stuff like pay, sell, list, bal, and even seen are so common everywhere else that they aren't really needed in the beginning. They are universal and rarely do other commands/plugins have different words for them.

edit: Also, if /kit is picked, just make it /kit. That way people know about more kits than just starter. :p

 

Also, why are we giving a list of popular commands rather than explaining each? Or is that what you're planning to do?

 

My opinion is:
/bal
/warp
/kit
/pay
/sell
These are all essential in playing and getting around
The others seem to be in their own category:
/list
/rn
/pm
/seen
Are all communication/people related commands
/rules
information

 

My opinion is:
/rules
/pm
/warp
/sell
/pay

 

What about /ch? If explained to new players, it could save new players time.

 

Chat channels will be covered, and so will kits for that matter. But I agree, this is a really important command and chat channels should be highlights of the tutorial.

 

Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to vote for six commands, but mine were as follows:

• /bal
• /rules
• /pm
• /pay
• /sell

If allowed to vote for a sixth, I would also add "/rn" because I feel as if new players who do not understand the username system will be extremely confused by nicknames and actual names.

 

/lock is pretty important too imo

 

In-game Nicit said there will probably a little blurp just for locking stuff.

 

Mine are:

/bal
/pm
/warp
/sell
/pay

 

I would like "/help" to be featured if not already done so as it contains many chapters that new members could scroll through for future reference.

 

I'd say:

/bal
/pay
/sell
/pm
/ch <channel> - not on the list but this is by far the most critical command...without being able to utilize it correctly it's tough to get any needed help.

 

Honestly, they're all important. There aren't 5 I can very easily single out, because all of them should be taught/shown to new players.

 

/bal
/pay
/sell
These are IMO the absolute most essential. I know I had no knowledge of these commands when I started here and I still get the occasional, how do I pay question from a user.

A completely new person needs to know these commands to effectively play on the server. Although I could see /pay not being on there as more then likely one party involved will know that command so maybe /pm would have been the better vote

/warp
/kit

I also choose these two because they help you get started and getting around quick is amazing. Especially once you learn of player markets and the spawn market.

/rules is important. That goes without saying but I feel the person who would read them would have followed the rules anyways intuitively. Anybody who is likely to break them would ignore that command. And somebody who wants to know would be able to find them out fairly easy. I feel getting a player started and having fun as a first impression is better then, here are the rules of the server. ... Rules, although extremely imporyant are boring.

Also, /lock I see has been mentioned elsewhere in this thread. I still see builders not locking things from time to time or not realizing they can lock doors, signs and nearly everything you can appropriately think of. I could see a builder who had their stuff stolen consider a new server. So, even if its not listen in the 5 commands, I do hope it gets some solid attention so new users are made aware of this extremely important command.

I also learned a new command, /rn lol But to me, when I start on a new server I'm playing the game, building, exploring. What I'm not doing is trying to learn who players in chat's real names are. Heck, I'm probably ignoring chat. Me personally, as a new player, I would never use /rn

 

Why not cover all of these? They are all essential to successfully playing the server.

 

1. /bal - useful to know how much money a builder has because of things like plots and other things/services
2. /list - I think this is so useful because it tells you of staff and other players online
3. /rn - *edit* - can be replaced with /seen, and much more useful
4. /rules - yea i guess rules are important :p
5. /seen - not important for builders unless a nickname is used
6. /pm - important to move on and get plots and services
7. /warp - i guess for a builder this isnt essential...
8. /kit -unless its SG, i don't think this is important... I personally never used the kits when I was a builder here...
9. /pay -yea highly importnat
10. /sell - super important
