    Suggestion:
    When accepting a teleport from/or sending to someone into a PVP zone, especially main world pvp zones, it would be nice to have a warning or confirmation dialog.

    Additionally, it would be nice to get a dialog that announces to you that you have entered a PVP zone.

    Reason:
    This would prevent people from inadvertently teleporting or walking into PVP zones.

    Other Information:
    I have seen that messages can be issued when walking into PVP zones.

    Link to this plugin:
    Unfortunately I do not know as of yet. I will try to investigate a little.

    I agree +1 would be much safer.

    Possible to add, though I doubt that Khobbits or sk89q are willing to add this to either essentials or worldguard.
    My shot at making it would go like this, in non programmer speak;
    Check if the config value is set, if yes
    check if the player teleporting (/tpahere) is in a pvp arena, by checking wg region flags, in a given area. if yes,
    send a warning to the player accepting it.

    check if the player who is accepting (/tpa) is in a pvp arena. if yes
    send a warning to the player sending it, and ask for confirmation.

    A flag that gives welcome messages and goodbye messages as people leave a region is part of worldguard. When it was suggested to add it as a feature that could be purchased, it was denied because of the amount of lag it would create.

    Doing it will pvp zones is a similar thing, you could just enabled a welcome message flag for that pvp region. This would create a lot of lag as the server would constantly be checking if any player had entered any of the pvp regions.

    At least this is what I understood.

    It is possible and there is harm. The lag this would create could possibly bring the server to a crawl.
    Kuke has talked about this many times...
    For example, when talking about Town Greetings:
