NoobProtector created special for hardcore PVP-enabled servers. It provides a time-limited PVP-protection for new players. When new player joins a server he obtains a protection against PVP-attacks and can learn the server's world, rules, etc. When time limit is overdue player lose his protection and can attack (and can be attacked) by other players.

- Only PVP-protection. This plugin did not provide a god-mode.
- Enable protection for any player using commands
- Additional commands for player to disable PVP
- Two kind of time limits - play time (online) and real time

Hello, new version must protect against projectiles too (I forget about projectiles in when creating first version). This will protect players against bow-attacks and any other projectiles (snowballs, fireballs, eggs...)
About our server type. It's a... hardcore PVP server. There's no rules about PVP: anyone can attack anyone. But we use the Heroes plugin with lot of different skills that brings new type of attacks: fireballs, magic spells. Newbies that did not play with Heroes plugins are think that other player cheating to kill (or freeze, or set poison... etc) them and leaving server. And I created this plugin to add our newbies an additional time to learn about Heroes skill, try to use it against mobs and after some hours of playing meeting other players in action :)

Hey, may I know what type of server yours is? I'm a bit curious coz if it's a PVP server, newbies shouldn't be protected at all. If it's a survival server, newbies can't just jump right to PVP after joining for a few minutes, right?
Hi fromgate, I really like your plugins, MonsterFix and this. However, this plugin has one flaw. When other players attack a newbie using guns made by PVPGun, the newbie still takes damage. PVPGun uses snowball to call for damage event, so can you cancel that damage too? Thanks.
Hi! great idea of this plugin. i wanna use this for my server but i would need one more thing in it: i have 2 pvp arenas on my server, where pvp must be also enabled for noobs. so my request is: can you add the option to define regions where the pvp is always enabled, regardless of beeing a "noob" or not? (best way for me would be a "worldguard" region flag, added with the "wg custom flags" lib-plugin)
