This makes no sense, you'd just be transferring the decision to be killed from defender to attacker .. and attackers already put themselves at risk when the enter the pbox. As far as `abusing' it goes, what's the great advantage in having an attacker or two out of the way for 8 seconds? Being able to pass the ball more easily to the halfway line maybe? Can't see that being a huge bonus worthy of screwing up DB with a lame respawn timer.

i personally think a small delay would be appropriate.. i get sick and fed up of n00bs looking for an easy frag, while i stand in goal and get 20 morons bouncing on my head trying to get me to kill them..
"OOH LOOK!! 20 FREE FRAGS!!" *frag* *frag* *frag* *frag* *frag* *frag* *frag*... *BAM* huge defence taking out what would be a certain goal
its especially annoying when we are in the last 30 seconds, the oppositions _GOALIE_ is in your PBox, and you are 1 goal behind or tied..
N00B POWAH!! :p

Adding a respawn delay will make players value their health more, as it creates a small power-play opportunity for the opposition upon death.
It offers a reward for good defending i.e. attacking the ball carrier as soon as possible; spotting attackers in the penalty zone and doing something about it (regardless of where ball is).
As for the delay, set up a private testing server using a spread of player abilities from the league teams and find out how long it typically takes to make a shot on goal for the side with the extra man.

I noticed someone trying to do this to me in a 2v2 on lowcube....i stopped his shot and passed it up field, he ran in front of me as if i was going to kill him (i did earlier...but cought on) so i just stood there and looked at him.
What did he do? He reconnected to the server, and killed our attacker before he had a chance to shoot.
That = lame.
