That's not respawning that's aborting and reconnecting which is considered an exploit in every way.

The OP was obviously never involved in a game design process before...

I get where you're coming from but it IS still a game and if you wan't to kill yourself and with that start a new character then that should be okay. When you respawn you have to imagine it as your character having died and you commandeering a new subject through the terrible plains of Chernarus. With that in mind.. it doesn't break the realism as a new survivor simply washed up on shore.
