We can not be sure what percentage of new players actually explore the tutorial room (at texas hitman's spawn realm) or learn the commands without asking in chat or find public land without asking. What we are sure of is that some of them still can't find their way without requiring help. We are constantly bothered by the same questions over and over and over.
Any smart person willing to learn the ways of the server would explore spawn for tutorials. In fact, if you walk straight out of spawn and follow the instructions on the signs, you will find yourself in the tutorial room. However, we don't live in a world with smart people (or we at least don't play a game with more mature players). Therefore, by making it just a tad bit easier for new players to reach a tutorial area, I think we may reduce questions in chat and gain a player base (though, maybe a stupider one).
What I suggest is /tut (because /tutorial is too hard to type for stupid people). It's another warp, like /trade. It takes you to an enclosed area (my guess is below trade) with, as you might guess, tutorials! It would be similar to the tutorials under texas hitman's spawn realm (outdated btw).
XxNooBxX: i haz no wut do to land can build free

Answering their questions is just a bother and telling them to read the signs at spawn is a bother too because they usually come back with "where?"
Many new players seem to struggle with learning how to play without asking for help. Make it easier for them, and you have happy players. The downside: You're playing with dumber people.
And do your part by placing signs like these on your realms around spawn please:
Let the replies commence.
