For me the nicest thing you can build in Minecraft is:
A Tree. Or better: A Bigtree
At spawn you wont find any trees, just big buildings, some weird roads and empty grassland with high walls around it.

The good things about spawn:

• many different building-styles and materials
• there is grass! Not only concrete.
• Not just shops, banks, embassies or storage halls, but also community places and projects

I think we should combine the nature (trees, grass, parks) with interesting architecture and community.

My Appeal to all spawn-realm-owners:

• Build only on height-level 70
• avoid boring grass fields without anything - build something, at least some trees
• No tree/wheat/cactus-farms - its a city
• make roads, straight roads. Expand them to all directions (see picture, suggestion in the bottom)
• Plant grass, also tallgrass flowers Trees, benches and whatever to decorate your realm
• Dont build boring big 50x50 cubes (like the BSG "Box"), but smaller buildings with interesting architecture. we also dont need 3x3 realm-width buildings - dont monopolize the spawn
• You have nothing to hide. Let people see and use your creation: No Iron Doors, no walls around your realm, no traps, etc.
• Community realms: Build a park, a spleef arena, a rollercoaster and other funny things for everyone. Maybe a Community Center for your Clan or Group where new people are welcome (instead of embassy)

A Better Road System
Every realm owner could give two blocks on the borders of his realm for infrastructure. Also at least 5 blocks for Grass and trees (decoration). Its an easy and fair system.

Example:


Model (without trees):

[Red] spawn and community centers with city gates
[yellow] Public areas (but of course private realms) - parks

So you are basically asking all current spawn realm owners to demolish what they currently have to create something completely different? I think this would more be suited for a brand new realm, not a mesh of realms.

The phoenix... it is not fond of trees...

Good game, comrade.

It would be ideal. But planting some trees and making better roads is easy.
Also spawn changes all the time. You just need to push it into the right direction.

I think it wont be possible until the next map reset (+ realm owner reset)

Actually, this does make sense. You should definitely try to achieve this.

Tell that to the giant phoenix pixel art that'll only vanish when Cogohst is dead and gone.

My Appeal: Build the Fortress, but not bigger than one realm, make roads, and keep it open.

The Spawn represents the server, new players will arrive there.

Since you're new, I wont snap at you. I'll politely state I've never once supported the hand holding of newbies, which is what you're pushing for.

While I respect your opinion, I must decline to abide by the idea.
