    I saw this thread earlier today in Map Submissions, and it gave me a great idea (I'm assuming it's never been suggested before). What if instead of having a normal spawn, spawn would be on whichever map would be played next? I don't think it would be that difficult to implement. A long time ago, putty switched the next round map to "spawn" and the gamemode to "lobby". Once the new round started, everyone was teleported back to spawn and it just restarted the wait in between rounds. All that would have to be done is to take out the spawn map, and instead of having that transition time between maps, just change it straight to the new one.

    Pros:
    -Gives new players an opportunity to check out a map before hand
    -Prevents confusion between map names (I confuse downpour and downfall regularly)
    -Very easy to implement (I think)
    -If you leave the round you have until the round ends to explore the map and do things like find for map glitches that are usually too difficult to access without getting killed. It will speed up bug detection and patching.

    Cons:
    -We wouldn't have a unique spawn
    -The gun list would have to be migrated to the gun menu

    So that's basically what I had in mind. I think this would be a great addition that would make the server much more noob-friendly. Let me know what you think, and I'll make improvements to the idea as needed.

    1st Amendment: You can access the normal spawn with parkour and the maze by use of /war leave

    2nd Amendment: All guns will be displayed in the gun shop with level, name, and cost. Available guns will have green names, while locked ones have red.

    I like the idea. But if players want, they should be able to go back to the spawn by doing /spawn if they want to do parkour or the maze.

    Hm.
    Shoving away the idea of all the hard work put into the current spawn, I like it. Yet, how would players have access to all the info about the server?

    Also in the next update, you can join games from spawn; so if the map IS spawn, how will that work? We would need to either keep the current spawn, or add a spectating system where players can join the current game.

    To get info about guns, instead of having a wall of signs, in the gun buying menu it could show all the guns with level required, credits required and gun info in the lore. The rest of the information could possibly be presented in a similar fashion.

    Yes, the main problem I face here is that the current spawn is so pretty...
