Gonna stick away from this. I can't pvp for jack shit. :(
I am not 100% involved in the development, so the following might be incorrect, but from what I understand there will still be normal protected no-pvp zones.

Don't dare staying away from us, if need be I will make a Roobland Safehaven!

Hmmm.... so PvP zones are like in SMP 3? :D

I wonder how many player/settlement ranks will be here.
Or settlements will be free-form like SMP 4?

Yeah, I'm hoping towns will have the option to be non-PvP. Remember the LAST TIME the entire server was full PvP?

I need to redesign Fatalis General Hospital/Trauma Center, though. Better planning is needed.

Perhaps we can have a plugin that includes a healing block of some sort (like coal blocks did in the older SMP)

Servers with full pvp and not one single chance to create little no-pvp safehavens (e.g a village protection or the pvp protection stones, etc.) have always turned out utter shite.
The TNT shop I liked where people could meet for trades, but smp4 was good. Also no pvp in settlements means you can't stop raids...

With all due respect sir, many of us have been waiting for a server with full PvP. Journey of Elysium died before it even made it to half of its lifespand, it was always the same players (<6). During the last month of SMP4, the server had at least more than 0 players!

Edit: Will JtE's Map be posted on http://smp.blocktopia.net/maps.php

Well I guess thanks for calling me "sir".

About the rest, I don't see any connection to anything else. But this thread is not for such discussions anyways, since we don't know any of the details yet. If I might remind you, the main post says "full pvp", so you can presume that most of the map will have pvp enabled.

Well, you can double-block entrance, to see if raiders is stalking you.

Just make walls around the town.
