    (I don't know if this has already been suggested; I'm not active on forums.)

    As you may or may not know, if u jump into PvP from the /warp pvp platform, you get a 10 second invincibility. Now I don't really know why this was implemented, but it seems kinda pointless in my opinion.

    After dying, people can jump straight back in, pick up there loot if some is still left on the floor and run out without having any worries about being killed. And yes, you can easily jump in, run to and up the ladder (because the ladders are too short.. but das a different suggestion xD) in under 10 seconds, ive tested it.

    Also, if there are people down in PvP, by the time the invincibility wheres off they have already run out and won't be coming in for the remaining time that you are online.

    Some may say 'but what if I accidentally fall in'. There is a barrier stopping you, and also 4 warning signs saying PvP below. If you still 'accidentally' full in I honestly don't know whats wrong.

    So please, remove the invincibility.

    Relating to what I said about the new spawn/terrarium, and falling in easily, the 10-second timer is crucial to give people who accidentally fell in a 10-second chance to escape.

    How does one 'accidentally' fall in.

    So there is a big hole saying "Terrarium PVP" above it, but if you somehow happen to miss that, you then land on a platform. This platform has edges on it, and if you are walking straight forward for /warp spawn (and you somehow don't see the giant hole), you cant drop down because the barrier is there.
    Then there are 4 signs in each dropdown point saying "WARNING, this is an arena, u may die in combat".

    So if one can't seem to read, see or have any common sense about them, then yes, I see your point.

    You clearly missed the many discussions about the new spawn and its terrarium. Please don't make arguments you are unknowledgeable about.

    Yes. You can easily fall in. When you /warp spawn, there is a big hole right in from of you, how is it not impossible to accidentally fall in? The "four drop corners" with their red "warning text" are useless because you can jump off from any side, not just the corners. There are no barrier blocks covering each side of the drop out platform.

    Lastly, I can read.. A warning sign is not enough. Period. There needs to be a clearer warning.

    13 blocks infront.. plenty of space.
    U have to choose to jump onto the ledge if u want to get off. There's more than enough warning

    Anyone new players that do fall, don't realise they're in pvp because they don't get hit straight away resulting in them trying to mine the glowstone on the floor to sell for 2 dirt, and that will take them at least 10 minutes. Then after the 10 seconds is up they're dead before they know it, it doesn't help one bit, it just lets people abuse logging out before they get into combat.

    Idk why they just don't raise the edge of the square hole one block up and put a big red "warning PvP" text above it. Seriously, if that doesn't help it, you shouldn't even be allowed to use a computer on your own. The 10 seconds protection is not necessary.

    there are many other ways to fall into terrarium other than the spawn platform but those aren't that bad because people don't camp the edges in groups of 5 like they do in the middle. Otherwise if you can't pick up the loot from people in the time it takes them to respawn, run the /warp pvp command without getting kicked for a too fast login error, then to run up and jump in, thats your own fault.
