*Unstick me
But not the HUGE area that it is now, more like the reasonably sized area I had when I was manager that was only No-PK within the grassy/sandy perimeter of the hedges and side walks.

*Hospital
Why this should be No-PK for "Fair Play" reasons is blindingly obvious anyway, and is enhanced by the idea of making the Hospital exit out to Unstick Me.

*Event related areas
Including, but not limited to, the current EC Shop/Event House and Event Lobbies.
This man speaks the truth.

Because Era doesn't use the normal PK system (at least not directly) it's possible for one level to be a PK zone for one person and No-PK for another person (It's already like this in some of the spar levels). So it should be possible/feasible to get rid of ALL No-PK Zones and replace them with No-PK Conditions.

The other positive is that people who are in No-PK are already unable to hurt people who are in PK so there can't be any laming.

Some examples:
1. You enter unstick me. You've been shot in the last 5 minutes. It's a PK Zone for you. (In case you don't want to wait 5 minutes before you can go AFK you could add a second condition that if you stand still in certain levels for 30 seconds they become a No-PK zone, this gives anybody who might still be chasing a kill a fair chance to kill the person before they are safe).

2. You enter unstick me. You haven't been shot in the past 5 minutes. It's automatically No-PK and you're safe.

3. You run into the hospital to heal, it's a PK zone for you.

4. You die and click yourself to go to the hospital. It's a No-PK zone for you, for 5 minutes, or until you leave.

5. You walk into a shop/bank. It's a No-PK zone for 5 seconds and then you can be PKed. If you get the 5 second No-PK zone safety more than 3 times within 30 seconds then you don't get the No-PK zone safety time anymore for 5 minutes (to prevent people from link laming into shops for protection).

There are probably better examples or better conditions that could be used but I think that the idea in general is worth seriously considering.
