So recently people have been pvping in the overworld around spawn. Sadly this has gone hand in hand with people doing the very honourable thing of teleporting or a /pvp when they are about to die. Example in the video below (warning, contains bad language).

Apparently this is completely legal, which I don't really understand in the first place, but maybe there could be a way to stop people from doing this other than making it illegal.

I propose all teleports (/spawn, /home and /trade) are disabled when pvp is enabled and there is a 10 second time delay for disabling pvp.

That's it.

Yes.

Alright, so although I'd love this, it would never fix the problem. These people who toggle pvp/teleport would just stop PVPing altogether or find other ways to troll.

Toggling/teleporting is the only way some people can PVP without dying in seconds. Remove that, and they won't ever get into PVP in the start.

It's how I got into PVP... I might of been a douche a few times by tp'ing (Not as bad as Jolt did in that video though...) but I ended up building up PVP experience and confidence and finally risking diamond armor and fighting people.

What I'm saying is if this is implemented all it's going to do is cause spawn to be as empty as the nether.

I like the idea, I just don't like what it would turn into.

EDIT: Oh yeah, btw, I use normal dia armor a lot of the time and protection 4? Please, protection 3 (lvl 25 enchant) all day.

I don't understand the importance of this. The only reason people do that is because they don't want to loose their stuff. If you don't want to use it, make it on an "items back" basis. Or at least don't even bring things you don't want to loose. Its just the simple stuff that can change this whole perspective. Although I do like the "10 second PVP toggling" rule, and would like to see that implemented into the server.

I also do find the 10 sec toggle rule good and bad. Its good so when you pvping and someone else turns on pvp then they cant turn it off for 10 sec. But it is kinda bad too. I you just need to check your pvp
is on or off then you type /pvp and it turns on the u have to wait 10 sec (especialy bad with people you don't wanna fight with at spawn.

Sam, you are even more of a legend than I have expected. That guy is just a plain, downright d**khead. I know how you feel, about pvp, but I only pvp to make a profit, like not giving back stuff, and stuff.... But when people do that, it should be dealt with... Also, I used to do this before and learned how much of a troll I was... Anyhow, keep pvping, just don't give back he stuff...

Add another command like '/pvp status' or a /yes confirmation to switch pvp on.

PVP should be ONLY about risking to die. Lousy teleportations are way against what pvp should actually be.

Of course. Only thing I mean is if this is implanted, all those people who disable PVP will just resort to other means.

Anyhow, it's quite fun to bring sharp V + Str 2 potions and try and kill them before they disable PVP. Heh.
