I am going to make a town probably in the 2 weeks or so and I have a few questions on how to do things.
1. I live near a town that couldn't pay its taxes so it was wiped off the town list, can i build it near there?
2. How do I make it so town members and guests to my town can pull levers and step on pressure plates?
3. Can 1 normal 16x16 plot be on two chunks or do plots and chunks have to line up?
4. Do plots have to be on sea level?
5. Can I change the town's spawn and if so, how?
6.How do I set up plots?
7. Can I create an unlimited number of public buildings and how do I create them?
That is all I can think of for now, try to answer as much as you can.

5. Try "/town set spawn"
For other commands see this list (many commands on the list are TA/mayor/Admin only; some are disabled on the server)

I realize you all have put so much work into your comments to help this poor soul. If you need anymore help, try looking at this.

Yes, the server price to claim land is set to a certain amount. I believe it is now 1000 noobz, I could be mistaken though, I haven't looked for a while. If you want to let everyone and by everyone you mean the whole server, you would type /town set perm outsider/ally/resident switch on. I will double check this command, if you want to make sure it works, just type in each one separately, like /town set perm outsider switch on, /town set perm resident switch on etc.

Ah, thats what I meant, I am a bit rusty. All listen to myrf!
