Increase active player count: Discourage tp-killing in survival and survivalplus

I would like to propose that mods consider discouraging tp-killing in survival and survivalplus. Either make it punishable or make recently tp'd players invulnerable. Reasons are as follows:

1. Primary victims of tp-killing are new players - new to the server or new to Minecraft in general. Being tp-killed is one of the worst things that could happen as it ruins the player experience for them. **Why stay in a server filled with bullies?** This ruins player retention. Those new players attracted by the ExtremeCraft Youtube managers and marketers? Marketing efforts will be ruined as those people they attracted to the server won't stay for long. In terms of financial impact, there's the loss of revenue from rank up purchases, pet and title sales, and other forms of cash flow to the server.

2. Even veteran players are affected too, which lowers revenue received from them. "Whale players" or whales - those who contribute most of the revenue to the server - are usually long-term players who call ExtremeCraft home. One of the things needed to retain whales is to provide them with other players to play with. If new player numbers drop due to tp-killing, then whales are less incentivized to stay and spend their money as well. After all, why would you buy wings or trails if there's very few people who would see them? Why waste your time buying rank ups in a toxic server if you can buy somewhere else? These are the considerations in mind.

3. Tp-killing discourages cooperation between people. Players join a server because they want to interact with other players. To build together or trade or just make friends. By not discouraging tp-killers, players get suspicious and distrustful of each other. Instead of promoting positive player interaction, tp-killing makes players feel more negative. Tp-killing thus encourages more solo play, which disincentives people from staying in the server in the first place. Why not just play single player then? This ties up to #1 and #2 above.

Answer: Accepted

Thanks for submitting your feedback and showing interest in our server!

Tp-killing will always be allowed as it would cause way to many issue if we had disallowed it which would turn into major issues. However, we have added a plugin as to where you won't be tagged in combat or lose items if you teleport and die.
