    What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:
    Main City Server
    Short title for your suggestion:
    /apply <rank>
    What are you suggesting:
    Have a command /apply <rank> that when executed, it gives the player the link to the exact forum.
    Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:
    It is faster for players to find the exact forum to apply for, especially for new players who don’t know how to surf the forums too well.
    Other information:
    This is not a way to automate the process, just to make it more easy to get to the application.
    Plugin or custom addition:

    One suggestion per form:
    I Understand.

    +1 should be easy to add so why not?

    I think we already have the link on /help resident, would be doable to add tinyurls to all the other rank helps as well.

    Not sure a new command is really needed here

    To be fair, this is not needed but it's a nice addition to have, especially for new players

    Agreed. +1 if it’s easy enough to do though.

    Sounds like a great idea but maybe a command like /rankup as many other servers use it and ive seen many builders ask if we have the command. But it will work as suggested.

    +1 as I agree it would make it so much easier for newer members to get to where they need to be.

    We will not be making a new command, simply for redirectional purposes.
    However I am all up for improving our help files even further.

    Marking this suggestion as in-progress and tagging both @Nicit6 and @pokeball92870 to look into making things more simple within our help commands in game.

    This would clash with the fact that when you make a mayor application for example, it is to give the coordinates of your town which is then created by a GA+

    A way around that would be to allow, but not require, the Mayor and President rank to file for a town application. The automated /rankup command would still work, you would just have to file for a town through the forums. Nonetheless, command-rankups aren’t the point this suggestion. This is about making the application url easier to find.

    I see. I misinterpreted what you said as when you said 'many other servers use it' I believed you actually meant the rankup taking place using this command as I have had experience with servers where this command actually performed the rankup itself.

    @Nicit6 will be working on adding more things to our help file.
    Hopefully should be more clear.

    I think @ClarinetPhoenix finished this, waiting on her response.
    If you want to add stuff, please contact her, she has it.

    Yes, meant to post but kept forgetting.
    Changes are live and look good. I made some color changes to the link in '/help Builder' and '/help Resident', as well as phrasing changes to make it more obvious that the link leads to the application.

    Marking accepted as I believe this is complete.
