Don't use Enjin.

Thanks for finding those errors for me, highly appreciated.

To use enjin nicely you need to have a really good theme and layout, something you don't have.

Just remember you can't make everyone happy though. You'll spend far too much money, end up giving up. RIP

Personally, I'm not a fan of the "[+] (user)" join message, but I can see it working on the server for the size. It helps to fill up chat and allow people to know who is coming and going, so I'm going to stick neutral on this. Next, we see the MOTD. The red bars are a bit bright, so maybe think about mixing in some grays or whites. You should look into centering it all, so remove the last 3 squares on reach bar row. The messages are nice and I think you've done this nicely.

Spawn impression:
Nice looking builds, looks straight to tutorials, very helpful for users who want to learn about the server. Overall, I'd give the builds a 6/10 on the spawn and a 7/10 overall. For a small server, this is basically a 10/10.

Kits:
On the start, I can't tell if this is an OP Factions or what, but it seems to be OP when you look at the join kit. For the other kits, it confirms my assumptions that it's OP Factions as the kit weekly is Protection II Diamond. I think you've done a great job of making this not pay to win, but you don't have much going for ranks. I also cannot find the rank preview at spawn like the shop says there is.

Spawn features:
Nice enchant area, mob grinder, and warzone drop. I would say that your staff signs are lacking any real use. They are hard to see and I would recommend adding heads and even raising the amount of relief on the walls.

Commands:
/kit and /warp GUIs are VERY nice, well configured. Good job!

Shop:
The build is nice, but I think the method of getting downstairs is a bit unprofessional. I had a hard time understanding and once I jumped down to the 2nd level I finally found the water elevators.

Overall:
Overall, I think you did really good. I'd rate the server 6/10 with 10 being a multi-thousand player server. You definitely need to upgrade from Enjin, but I think if you got a nice template made you could stay on it for a while. You will have a hard time getting donations as there is little incentive, but as far as from a non-donor perspective, it's nice!

Good luck with your server, I hope I could help!
