[General] Camping of Spawn

I honestly am up for hardcore, but after spending a good one and a half hours trying to get out of spawn to get back to my base camp, just be killed after the long way out of spawn, is starting to get a bit out of hand. I am not familiar with the "streak" system but it seems to me that killing newly spawned characters moments out of spawn is a very easy way to rack up a large streak. Not only would new HeroCrafters be unlikely to enjoy their first experiences (being unable to even leave the starting area), but it seems a little unfair that people can easily obtain a free "streak" from camping out the starting areas where a player would have literally nothing to defend themselves. Like I said earlier, I love the hardcore aspect of HeroCraft, but even in the old days there was some regulation on murderous sprees at the location of spawn. It seems uncontrolled and chaotic right now, and I would suggest maybe a protection for newly spawned characters to negate their death as a count towards a killing streak. Doing this might prevent the need to sit and kill the under equipped characters at spawn and allow them to experience HeroCraft in its entirety. Another possibility would be to expand the no PVP zone, but it seems unlikely that would be considered. Thanks.

I feel your pain brother But honestly its not hard to leave spawn people do it all the time they sneak out. Don't leave on the main road and expect people not to murder you. Go off the road 50 blocks off the road NEVER go on the road unless you're looking to pvp with people cause chances are buttercup half the people are going to stab you i know shocker right?..So don't go onto the roads and you should be fine.

This probably doesnt help, but I built my house near a herogate because much less people camp those than the roads.

@BonJanks1 Thats how the server is you are going to have to deal with it. Then people like me come into the game. I like to pvp i love murder'ing people now while its not "fun" killing people that come out of spawn IT is fun killing people who kill people who come out of spawn. But currently i'm banned due to "reasons" i'm sure at some point i will be unbanned if you're still haveing trouble :p i'd murder them for you

lol @Steamed out of the two times I've died in PvP so far.
1: Was when I was a low level warrior, unarmed and some player destroyed me (at my base)
2: When I walked into a herogate at the same time as zachimon and jzillifro (I think) and they ganked me.

You are truly a moron. Seriously grow the hell up and go back to begging the admins for access to the server. I doubt they will let you back in simply because you have more than shown that you are too immature to even handle yourself in a multiplayer video game. You think posting to this thread about "how you're going to murder me so much" is getting you much credit in the eyes of the all seeing overlords we call the admins? I didn't think so. Just go back to single player, as that's all you're really fit to play.

Cheers,
BonJanks :)

I think it's supposed to be the other way around...

Nopvp roads would be fine with me at least.

I agree with Joker, roads definitely need to be pvp, but a solution to the camping problem would be nice.

Yeah, nopvp roads would be just a tad bit extreme. How about new players get some aura like "you are protected by the gods" for about 5 minutes after they leave spawn for the first time?
