    Default Disable Teleporting

    I think it'd be a good idea to remove the TP ability. It's already causing problems, and we've all become so used to living without it, I don't think there's a need for it any more. I think we should keep /home, if possible. Anyway, please vote whether you want to keep TPing or not. Thanks.

    We've done all this time without tping, I think we can just make do without it forever.

    I wonder if we could set it up so that you can only tp to members with the same color name as you or by accepting permission. I could live without it but tp'ing is incredibly handy. I'm sitting on the fence and remain to be swayed either way.

    We tried that when we began the PVP server, it was called "Warping". However, all factions could use eachothers warp points and there wasn't a way to switch it off so we had to drop that too.

    this.

    also trading is extremely annoying when the minimap mod doesn't work for you without tp. Imo most people can behave maturely with tp, and if they don't we can easily ban then for a day or 2.

    This poll covers the /tp command, not the /home command.

    I support removing /tp. With it, warfare is drastically altered, and this is a PvP server.

    I voted yes. Minimap and /home is just fine IMO.

    I'm against removing tp, at least for now. I'd rather punish those who abuse it. It's not right that people who want to use it in ways that are fine (such as Kingdom Trading) should be penalised.

    I voted abstain as I agree to a point with both sides and I'll be fine whichever route is chosen.

    I voted no, I would prefer to see trade prosper, and punishments dolled out to those too immature to use it right

    What prevents you trading the old fashioned way? It's a PvP server, tp will make it far too easy to fight off raids.

    Ascarona: also, shall I tell them you also vote to remove tping?
    Doyler: I s'pose
    Doyler: Sure
    Doyler votes to remove tping. Just spoke to him on Steam, but we both agreed that /home function should stay in the game.
