    This is a short and simple one. The current spawn is simply too complicated and large! There are so many builders that have issues finding their way around, get frustrated, and quit. The beauty of the old spawn was that it was easy to navigate for new users. The current spawn is aesthetically pleasing yes, but functionality is low. People who have to play on very low render distances will have issues seeing the words above the giant portals. From my experiences of receiving many cries of help from builders, many find it difficult to get to the higher levels of spawn. The tutorial is also quite lacking.
    If this were to be accepted, I think it would be appropriate to choose the new spawn the same way the old one was, with a good ol' competition!

    Edit: Tutorial is no longer lacking

    There is a higher level of spawn? I've never looked up tbh.

    I find spawn takes ages to load and it is too complicated.

    I don't think the spawn is too large to not be able to see all the signs. Ans for any spawn for any server, it takes getting used to. So...

    I think it should go back to the old spawn where the sg board is to the left and star shop right in front of you. Old memories :)

    This spawn reeks of a time where corruption was the norm aka it was stolen. +1 old spawn actually had some originality.

    +1 A new spawn can be created for more functuality while still being different from simple portals and signs.

    I support this immensely, the current spawn looks great, but really has no functionality.

    Function before form.

    +1 The old spawn was amazing, the current one confuses me and I always have to spin in like six circles to orient myself

    Personally I have mixed opinions on this topic.
    I love the look of the current spawn however I admit it may be confusing for some users...Even though I never had any trouble with it.
    The following comment will probably cause a massive outrage xD
    In my opinion the old spawn kinda sucked.
    I think it will be a great idea to make a spawn competition and it would be best if we had teams for that HOWEVER I think the best way to choose a new spawn would be a public vote.
    And also if we change this spawn we should change SG 2 to a community built arena.

    I totally agree with the spoiler, though it was full of memories for me. If anyone wants to see it, go to SG 2 and imagine the place without the damage.
    [Edit:maybe we can get a build team to redo the spawn/make it smaller]

    Eh, I've never been around for the old spawn, but as far as I can tell, I've never gotten lost or confused at our new spawn. It has always been perfectly fine and user-friendly for me, and I don't think any change is needed. We do have other major issues on the agenda to tackle.

    Besides, we'll have a hub at some point (probably), so we can have different spawns for those servers, perhaps.

    If we do change spawn though, whatever, no big deal. I just think it's fine as it is.

    Any change can be worse than the previous, but disagreeing with a suggestion because it could be worse is the silliest thing I've heard all week.
