Do your research before hand.

We’re not going to remove tpa from the main server as there would be an outcry, this is why GodsDead is wanting to add a ‘no tpa’ server, in which everyone can’t tpa (surprisingly), and would encourage the use of the server plugins.
For more info, please search ‘tpa’, and I guarantee you will find 50 odd topics about it.
You also recite pretty much everybody’s same argument on how tpa can be improved and on how people imagine ship to ship fights.
As of right now, it is somewhat tpa’s fault, but is also down to people not always wanting their hardworked ship to be blown up by some invis, speed 2, depth strider, Rambo half swimming half skimming the surface with tnt and blowing that thing to smithereens before you can type an angry response in chat (which I assure you do).
People try encourage these battles by staging their own (like Max does which have been successful) and having the community enforce these non-existant rules in these battles, however there are the odd cases of people just wanting to cause misery and have, blown people’s ships taking part, apart. And we’re also lucky that this is a small minority and that most large pvp crews, whom are a real mix of the good, the bad and the ugly, are not to blame and actively support or leave the events well alone as they know that the response they would get would be more than the usual ‘hey’ every time someone’s chests get vacuumed up by them.
Its good to see new people with these views that they want to contribute something to the server already, and can already see the few, existing problems that are prevalent, however, removing tpa, despite how insignificant it may sound, potentially could cause a lot of the player base to leave and discourage future players.
p.s. sorry for my slightly rude original response.
