I posted this in another thread, but I thought instead of highjacking that thread I should post this in its own.

Instead of /spawn 1 or whatever, I propose a "/help spawn" command, which would print out a message like:

Spawn City: X -0, Z -0
Abyssus: (insert coords here)
Random City name (coords)
et cetera...

It would take minimal coding to implement, and it would just take a few min to update when a new spawn is added.
It would save a few trips to the forums for new players and old any time we can't remember where the spawns are. Half the battle with these new spawns is simply finding them. I think a lot of people wouldn't mind walking, just so long as they knew where they were walking to.

It would also be cool if there were a command to know what the closest spawn point is. It would save players from using /spawn and ending up 2000 blocks in the wrong direction.

Your other ideas I disagree with, but this ^^ I completely think should be implemented.

The idea of a /spawn main /spawn abysuss , etc.

Would be easier, but probably won't be implemented due to how easy it makes it.

Yes! An in-game command that lists the locations of the spawns would be tremendous, letting new players know where some major cities are, and letting old players...well, know where some major cities are. It's a relatively minor thing, sure, but it'd be helpful.

We could also have it give the approximate radius of each city, to give newbies an idea of how far they have to go to get out. Add up the contiguous owned realms in each of the cardinal directions, then divide by four.

Only question is, would newbies use the function or would they keep asking in chat?

Well you can see by the amount of newbies asking how to do things which they could find out by typing /help now, so probably yes
