[INVALID] Should we have a different spawn?

As you may see spawn is more of a flat grassy plain. I thought that we should have a spawn that is more appealing, since spawn is the place that ALL players go to every day. I think that a spawn that could represent all 4 biomes. As i have heard from one honorable member that staff had already discussed about the idea of having the 4 biomes, but I thought i would want to see if it is possible, since the end result was this flat grassy plain. Each realm would contain one of the four biomes (snow, mushroom, jungle, and the common grassy) Though this may be considered invalid i still would like to see what others may think of this idea as a spawn.

Ps. to those who misinterpret this topic, this is NOT the place to post a different spawn. If you want to post a suggestion as a new spawn that is not the one i mentioned, please make a different thread.
:) ;)

Example:
Tornadic's spawn realm: Jungle
Intelli's 1st spawn realm: Grassy
Intelli's second spawn realm: Snowy
Rokkrwolf312's spawn realm: Mycelium
If the order is not neat i apologize, I can get confused sometimes :P

It sounds like a good idea, I personally don't care for the plain-ness of plains either. so it would be a benefit to me to have it anywhere else.

+1 for the idea

No. I think it would look ugly with how grass color varies between biomes. Adding biome characteristics I'm fine with just as long as it looks pretty. I'm always up for traditional changes to the area around spawn such as custom made trees/shrubs and variation to the land height.

Yeah... :P figured someone would mention that. It would make it ugly. I will try doing it in single player and see how it may look like.

Sorry kerovon forgot to add those to the list. :( :P
I can't edit my post so here is the improved list. However, i may take out mycelium and the swamp biome due to it being very unappealing or ocean since that is just a way for players to knock someone who is afk and with loot into water with snowballs or eggs and get their loot. As for regular forest, that will be hard to see anything and we need a spawn realm to show our tutorials chamber as well as the teleporter.

New list:
Intelli 1st realm: grassy
Intelli 2nd realm: Desert
Tornadicmaniac: jungle
Rokkrwolf312: snow

The desert would have to have a pyramid or a well in it. : P

And what about cactuses?

I don't think it matters, but the realms in front of the "MineRealm" sign cannot be changed that much, otherwise they can obstruct the sign. The two other realms I am all for changing into something more interesting.

I'm guessing there being an arena at spawn isn't a good idea either :P
