On the other hand. Theres entirely way to many people who wont see the bigger picture, what this game can actually become. These are the people that run around, grief, kill for no reason, and be an immature pos. They are the ones we can thank for the need of artificial boundries in gaming.
PvP is alot of fun. I love it, which is why I wouldnt want the safe area. The mechanics that are in mind now, make the game less appealing.
If it were me, I would make a simple compromise. On server open, turn pvp off completely for a week or two. Enough time for people to get a piece of land and throw a wall up. Then turn it on fully. No magic safe area. Griefers are bricked for the open, then its up to the player to protect his community/town/area. Just my opinion.
