Hello.
I'm sure you might've faced a combat logger at some point in your survival games experience. See a guy with good gear but no weapons, take them down to half a heart or so, and they disconnect, leaving you with no loot.
I have been on a server before, factions, which incorporated this plugin which stops combat-logging. If someone was hit in combat, and disconnected within, let's says, a minute after that, they would leave a 'clone' of themself, which contains all their items, which you could kill and take the items.
I think this would work quite well in MCSG. I'm sure this has already been suggested before but I felt the need to bring it up again after encountering a few combat loggers recently.

That sounds like a great plugin, but in MCSG we already have a way to prevent combat logging. If you're in combat and you get at least one hit on your enemy, you get the kill if they take fall damage, log off, and (obvs.) if you beat them to death. You're only safe to disconnect after waiting a good amount of time- 5m or so. So you still get the points if they disconnect, and their stuff stays right at the spot where they logged off. It's like an easy kill.

Hm, they should still make it that the stuff is dropped off the person on disconnect. Blasted people who see you in superior armor/weapons, turn around, run, and DC.

They automatically drop items from their inventory if they either die or log. There's really nothing we can do about them logging before combat, it's not like we're just going to deduct points for them leaving and not even being in a fight.

I almost fought 2 people today who had some iron/chainmail gear I needed, and they just DC'd when they saw me. It just seems like an inconvenience.

But I'm also the better man who lacks a stylish pair of booties! ._.

People combat log to avoid point loss, but when beta ended, our dev team developed a plugin that will take away your points (as if someone killed you) and gives them to the person who last attacked you (within 5 minutes).
