I'm playing on someone else's server and have died in an inaccessible spot under water. Upon respawning, I don't get back the introductory items a new player would get. Is there any way I could get a new character/reset my progress on a server myself, without involving the owner?
This is not a duplicate of that question. The other question is about resetting progress of a player on a server you control. My question is how to start from scratch when I'm just a user, not a server-owner.
No. There's of course the playername.dat in the server folder which could be deleted/modified, but you can't access the file without the help of the server owner. But: You mentioned "introductory items", maybe you're able to get them by checking if its a kit? (for example "/kit starter"). Also you could of course login with another account, especially if the server has set offline-mode to true, you would be able to choose another username and then join the server without re-buying minecraft.
