Brand new players have a lot of the same questions. Currently there is no tutorial quest like there is on SB, etc.
The /tutorial chat text is a nice start and of course the wiki is pretty good. But not very accessible for new players.

So, maybe a corner in spawn with a few holograms or something would be a good start. Or something like that.

A few things new players regularly say:
"How do I play this?" --- How to get to /wild and how to claim land
"Guys, I died and can't find my base now" --- How to set a home and how to claim land
"What's Mana?" --- How to get it and what it's used for
"Money pls" --- How to earn money quickly (ex /jobs)
"Sum1 got gear for me?" --- How to get starter gear (ex. /kit starter)
"Food pls" -- How to get food (ex. /kit food or how to get to /wild)

It would be helpful for us to say to them go read the holograms at spawn or go to /warp tutorial or something like that.

Thanks

Well I hate to be that guy but, i just recently started to play again after 3 years of absence & along with being muted I was able to find most things out by myself. Sadly admins cant incorporate common sense into new players, Most of these things there are guides for, When you join the server you are granted with a Useful Commands Book, & a Keystone which gives you most useful information there is to know about the server. The "what is Mana" question if my favorite, by typing /mana you get a GUI that tells you how to get Mana & What it is used for. Also, roaming around spawn there is quite a few NPC to tell you how to do things as well.
