CM Version (alpha or Regular):
Not either, this is a suggestion for training rookies
Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
A training server, I have my, and BlackAngelAce's server, Yawn Station up right now, I am the co-owner and head-admin there, I'd like to train people on proper RP, how to work engineering, medical, how to do any job in general
Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
After seeing many new players get banned for not knowing how the game works, and many LO's sit there shitting themselves in their spinny-chairs as they don't know how to work the damn ID changing machines, giving people random ass jobs, and custom jobs, I'd like to make a change for the better, as head admin I can do training courses for these people, teaching them what they need to know, how to set up the engine, how to build walls, de-construct tables, place stuff down, spawning in dummies with broken bones, teaching them how to fix every little bone or organ, as some people are not good at reading a wikia, or are just too stupid, hands on experience fixes it for these people, all other admins of the CM server are welcome to join in as well, for training sessions, and oversee these operations, even become admin staff if needed, I've had enough of people getting banned for not knowing how to play, or being too stupid to realise that it's a RP game, AS WELL as a combat game, I'd like any new players to be directed here, to learn, we have a dedicated, friendly admin staff, and are willing to help anyone coming on
Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
I feel as if this will decrease ban rates due to players being knowledgeable in how the game works, decreasing grief, stupidity, and idiots as a whole, as I said, I want to make a change for the better for this server, despite the costs, as well as many of your griefers, and idiots, will be screened out to see if they are /ACTUALLY NEW/ or are just /lying/ to grief some more or cause stupidity on your server
Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
Go check the server out for yourself, Admunz, I'm always on to chat, and discuss in real time if needed. We'd also be happy to do tests and teach newcoming admins-mods the basics of doing their jobs and how to use the admins mechanics IP: (REDACTED)

I know you have good intentions, but please, don't post sever links on our website.

Re: Training server suggestion - BeyondMyLife
Interesting. I can see this being a good idea.
I've been toying with the idea of making a training map myself, complete with training rooms such as supermatter setup, medical, shooting range, etc.
It would likely be a Sandbox-type server, a type which I've hosted in the past, and give people access to rudimentary Admin commands, such as teleporting to other players and OOC > Respawning at any time (in case of accidents). I'd probably also make floor tiles indestructible in case of explosions.
I'd make it an "Invisible" server so it can't be seen on the Hub, and only CM players could see the link here on the forum or in-game if they want to do some training or get griefing out of their system. Purely OOC (no roleplay at all), of course.
This might be a nice interim in the meantime or if you're interested in focusing more on RP, although it would work well for the aforementioned training also.
