Make initiating PvP possible to disable.

I don't want to be in a hunting party and accidentally hit my buddy while trying to click on a fox or whatever, especially since if he's knocked out, I could quite possibly kill him (which would suck a lot). Make it possible to "turn off" PvP (just like you can turn off criminal acts). This wouldn't prevent other players from initiating PvP with you, just like how turning off criminal acts doesn't prevent thieves from stealing from your claim. Rather, this would mute the effects of rage/murder, so if you "try" to attack a player, nothing would happen.

Also make it so attacks are canceled until you start a new one when someone gets knocked down, sometimes when you're fighting someone it gets up to 10 intensity so it just takes a second to kill them on the ground.

Yes, this is reasonable. I've fixed it, and it'll be in after the next server restart. I'd also like to cancel attacks when the opponent is knocked out, indeed, but it's a bit tricky. I'll be working on it, though.
