You know how goto's rule and there's always some lameasses that abuse it in PvP, right? Well I think I got a solution for you. This would take a while to do, though...
1. Take every weapon... yes you read that right, EVERY WEAPON, and add an invisible endcasting effect on it that puts an.. oh, let's say 10 minute spell on the user with no real effects but an unused flag.. let's say #400. Done? Good, now do it to all the attack spells to. Har.
2. Make a spell that calls for a text block that checks for flag 400. If found, casts a spell to instantly kill the user.
3. Make all warp points cast this spell. So if somebody shows up after having been attacked, they die a horrible death.
The fun part is this is pretty customizable. You can change the penalty to whatever you want, you can add it to all safe rooms, ect.
If you're a REALLY cruel bastard, you can change it so instead of insta-killing it permenately adds flag, let's say, 401. And have a check for 401 that instakills. So basically, if you goto in PvP, YOU GET REROLLED. See how many people do it then.
Another viable alternative is to permenately penalize their character. For instance, instead of an instakill, flag them for -50 hp or -1 max damage/-5 alterspelldamage, -10 hp regen, or something. They'll keep their items, but the penalty should discourage them from ever doing it.
