Minecraft Name: ASauer Suggestion: Bringing in a combat plugin for PvP Reason: I notice that people like to log during PvP if theyre losing and I think this would make things a little more fair(Even I've done it before) It may exist on the server, I really dont know but I dont believe it does. I have seen this plugin on other servers like faction ones. And a few others that have PvP. Basically you could enable teleporting in PvP unless youre hit, aka brought into combat. It just seems fair to the good PvPers who are pvping and the other logs because they arent doing so well. If you go about 10 seconds without being hit you would be able to leave/log. I thought about this idea last night when I noticed the trash talking. So I figured its worth a shot, also found this suggestion brought up a while ago. http://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/combat-logging.49131/ Any Other Information: I can understand that it may cause unwanted lag, but it may not, just something I believe should be looked into Link To This Plugin: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/combat-tag/

http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/combat-tag/ Here's a link to the most commonly used one. Pretty much after getting "hit" you have to wait 10 seconds to log out, if you don't then your inventory gets wiped
*Raises hand* 4 times so far in PvP, mostly with a red-tinted screen as a result. (That itself already "cleared" my inv in a friendly match) :/
I know it happens, it has happened to me, but you are already risking losing your stuff by going into PvP and that is a risk players are willing to make, the Combat Logging may make that aspect difficult. But it also makes fights more fair I guess. I noticed in the past this is the number one reason not to, even though it can be avoided by not PvPing, On top of the fact that the risk is already there to lose your stuff, as I stated a few sentences ago.
nuu da only thng i can du is log like lmbrjack @Ndm57dcraft @Epislen @riku1301 Jk Jk. I'll +1 this thread. I've had times where people would log on me when I was super poor and relied on pvp. (Basically me now) Logging myself, even sometimes just to piss people off... (@Ndm57dcraft again. xD) I feel this is necessary to have fair fights, and maybe even bring some people back to ECC-PvP, however that's a long shot, as there is many other things that need to be done.
The PvP timer doesn't have to be too long. It can be 5 seconds, or even 10 seconds. I've had experience with laggy internet, and even crashing sometimes with servers of a combat log. When internet, computers, or MC crashes, it easily takes 10+ seconds for the person to actually log off the server. And, with laggy internet, or a laggy computer, you'd be dead anyways because you'd be standing there for a little bit just enough time for the opponent to kill you.
Please don't come up with the excuse "you'll be dead anyway, its PVP" or "your risking to die anyway" Those are lame excuses. If we want to encourage PVP this isn't the way forward, people may have second thoughts about going into the arenas knowing theres a chance their good PVP gear is going to go zap.
Well its not that I am saying you are going to die, Im saying youre going in knowing that there is a chance. And PvP will be more encouraged if you cant just log off so you dont lose your stuff. Preventing the better opponent from winning.
What happens when people don't want to go in, incase they loose their stuff without being killed because of this plugin. That is not encouraging to me.
What happens when you go in against somebody and they log before you can beat them, and then next day or so youre back in with them and they beat you for your stuff because you dont log? Or couldnt log? Its pretty encouraging in my opinion. It has one or 2 flaws. But everything has flaws.
Then thats fine. If they log they log. Its like in SG. If you log out, you will loose out in rewards. If you log out in PVP you can miss out on rewards too.
No... When you log you aren't missing out on getting prot 4, you're saving your prot 4 from being taken. It's hard for skilled people such as @Ndm57dcraft to get kills when people log in PvP. Now, being active in PvP on ECC, I know that people use god apples when told not to, (And I mean chugging them down like their nothing @Epislen) But nonetheless, logging is not just "oh whatever". PvP isn't active enough, and when people log it greatly effects the PvPer. PvP has a great.. well used to have a great profit. When people log, that profit goes down the drain. Logging is not a joke, it effects the economy.
So you are saying that PVP used to have a great profit, but not anymore since players log and eat apples now? What changed to where they used to not be able to do that?
