Long story short I was running from zombies and jumped over some railing from not high up at all and broke my legs, ended up only being able to crawl, try to crawl into the nearby ocean as a last ditch effort to get away and drowned in the process. Since then it hasn't let me hit the respawn button, it has been grey instead of white.
I have tried multiple servers and nothing has changed. I can however play on hardcore but I don't really want to. (I'm a bambi) I've looked in a ton of threads and all suggestions have not done anything for me.
