Changes to Pre-Game

There's a few things that have been changed in HG pre-game which I personally dislike, and it'd be great to see if these changes could be reverted:

1. A cooldown on /spawn - I don't understand the point in this, since spamming it doesn't do any harm. The only issue with spamming /spawn that I can think of is if multiple people do it multiple times a second, potentially lagging the server, but if this is the case then the cooldown should just be reduced to 1 second.
2. The arena. I've never really liked the arena since its much more important to find a swamp and look for a ravine pre-game, instead of fighting for a knockback I sword. At the very least, remove the lava. Fighting in the arena isn't great as there's lava everywhere, it'd be much nicer if the lava was removed so there can be proper fights on the flat ground at the bottom.

There are some other changes I'd like to see pre-game, as well. Firstly, give players fly if they're not in the arena. It would be easier to find stuff than doing /spawn a bunch of times, as you can see a lot more when you're in the air.

As well as giving fly, there should be another small change to /spawn. Before the cooldown was added, sometimes I'd use /spawn too quickly and skip over swamps forgetting their co-ordinates. Although its easy to not do this, it'd be nice if there would be a message saying something like "You have teleported to x, y, z." when you teleport, so if you teleport too quickly you can look back and see the co-ords of a swamp you accidentally skipped past. Not really necessary, but would be a nice change.

That's it, really. A lot of this is nitpicking but I think it'd make pre-game a lot better.

tl;dr: Remove the /spawn cooldown, remove the arena or at least remove the lava in it, give us fly pre-game if we're not PvPing and say the co-ordinates in chat automatically when you do /spawn.
