    Suggestion:
    My suggestion is that when players join the server a link here would be displayed in the chat. Also, putting a link to it in the /help, or at the tutorial, and anywhere else that new players would see it.

    Reason:
    I've found that the tutorial we have ingame is decent, but lacks direction and leaves many new players feeling confused. That's why I made this tutorial, and why I want new players to read it when they join. I want it to be a starting point for a more extensive, useful, enjoyable, and professional set of tutorials and learning opportunities for the server players, created by players, mods, and admins, helping retain players that otherwise would have left EcoCity for another server, and having a more confident player base.

    Other Information:
    URL for the page: https://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/a-tutorial-for-builders-new-players.132442/

    Someone suggested this in a reply to my thread, and I thought it was a good idea. I'm willing to work on it, and have already made a few different decent tutorials, all linked together to create a cohesive understanding of the basics of EcoCityCraft, and would love to see the new players of EcoCityCraft presented with something like this.

    After reading the tutorial after I first joined, I was certain ECC was a prison server, and I was going to quit until I realized that ranks weren't IRL money.

    +1 The current tutorial is terrible
