Looks like it was rejected. I'll be leaving mineplot until it's removed then sadly, just can't stand pvp.

Are you really this angry that this is a thing? If you don't want to partake in the bloodshed, then don't. The only PVP that happens is basically right at spawn. So as long as you stay away for 5 mins, you'll be fine. Our map is so far spread out that the chances of seeing someone when you aren't at spawn are very minimal. What's preventing you from just continuing to work on whatever you are doing?

There are plenty of things that also try to kill you. MineCraft is supposed to be a little dangerous! The only way this would be a huge hinderance is if you were working on a spawn realm with lots of materials and someone came to try and kill you. But as soon as the announcement is made, all you have to do is /home away.

My /home is like 2k blocks away and I would be amazed to see anyone randomly wondering about at the same time I was. To be honest, I would be amazed if anyone bothered to come find you even like 500 blocks away from spawn.

Not to mention, the mist happens for 5 mins every 2-4 hoursish. This is such a minor hinderance.

TLDR, If you don't want to partake in bloodshed, just stay away from spawn and trade for a few mins.

I understand what you are saying, but it's not just about myself having the chance of being killed, it's also about it being forced, on all players regardless. The potential of me being hunted on top of that may be unlikely butI do not like the risk, particularly when grudges are held. It leaves me needing to log out, interrupting my work annoyingly. There are many people who know my area and also live near to me.. so unfortunately, I won't be playing as long as the feature is there, or not changed.

I do not mean to come across as rude to the players whom feel the same way, but have you even given it a try?

I mean this coming from the guy who partakes in the mist by /homeing, dropping everything off, grabbing a few gold swords, and running in like an idiot to spam click. I find it so much fun! Its a really nice break from just building. I wound up being sniped and burned and slashed so many times yesterday and I loved all of it. I don't loose anything important to me (as long as I strip off my stuff) and I enjoy the bloodshed.

I normally hate PVP because of the arguments and loosing my stuff. No one told you you have to fight full geared. One iron sword and you could be the king of mist for a few mins (until SMD kills you).

Try this out a few times, who knows.

It would make this post to long to quote the things above: Cold, you are speaking out exactly what I think about this theme.

When the mist happens I make a break, dress off, grab a sword and /spawn. It's a very funny break with no risk. I have never been attacked outside the first spawn realms.

Fight, and lose the levels i have been saving for enchants? no thanks.

Okay yes. Its not perfect, you will always find something wrong with just jumping in. I really have no other advice for you besides: try it a few times. Im sure we all have our chests of nub swords lying around. Like I said, you never know if you might wind up enjoying yourself.

And you know, I forgot to take all my good armor off yesterday and lost it all. I was a little upset sure, but I hopped over to a grinder, spent 5 mins of my time and at least got my good feather falling boots back.

I can understand not wanting to lose levels, but for that you could just block yourself into whatever you're using to gather levels, right? YOu could just use that while we take part in the Mist, and then enchant your things. :]
I'd hate to see any player leave forever over something such as this.

Oh, and cold, I use stone swords and leather armour gathered from my zombie spawner, and I stalk the trade room... and I'm not actually that bad when my internet is running full capacity.

Yeah, because people who do not like PVP and do not wish to partake in it should totally just stop what they're doing any lock themselves inside wherever they are...

The fact that anybody thinks the mist is a good thing boggles my mind. There are lots of people who do not like PVP in the slightest. We do not want to have to stop what we're doing and lock ourselves in boxes/our homes/etc for an entire night. If you want to PVP, literally nothing is stopping you from running around and repeatedly killing each other.

All the mist does is force PVP on people who do not want to partake in it and for some reason disable buttons. It's going to create a metric ton of arguments and fights (verbal) until it goes away, and already has generated quite a few.

Lol yes! I have so much crap from my zombie grinding thats suddenly useful. Were you on yesterday? Someone died and dropped like an entire inventory of leather boots, fishing rods and gold swords hahaha. The server lagged out so hard it was absolutely amazing.

I feel like there are a lot of people who have aways wanted to try PVP but because of the dumb nether camping it was never really possible. Now we don't have to go out of our way to find other mediocre PVPers. Hell I play on my laptop without a mouse so PVP isn't even simple for me, yet I still enjoy it.

Of course as kero said earlier (in this thread I think too lazy to search), the mist could get stale to all of us eventually. I think that if this becomes the case we just simply have a revote and try something else new. I think it just really deserves a chance from people right now.

To be honest, I think claiming that the mist forces you to stop what you're doing and hide in a hole is complete nonsense. If you are over 150 blocks from spawn you are essentially 100% safe from other players. Nobody is forced to partake in pvp unless you /spawn during the mist.

It's the fact that the chance exists that I can be peacefully working on my house and then have a person come up, kill me, and then take my stuff which annoys me.
