AntiPub

Description
AntiPub is a light-weight, effective plugin dedicated to blocking un-wanted spam from your server's chat.
Disclaimer
Note: There's no way to prevent everything (yet); however, this should to block most of any issues that it is meant to. Any issues / errors left in the comments will be IGNORED. (See known issues for more information on properly reporting issues.)
Developers are people too, and although both of our time is quite precious, it would help tremendously to keep track of errors so they don't go unfixed. So, for both our sakes, report it correctly or forever let it go unfixed (which is a bad thing for me AND you!)

[INFO] DataSourcePool autoCommit[false] transIsolation[SERIALIZABLE] min[2] max[20] [INFO] SubClassFactory parent ClassLoader [org.bukkit.plugin.java.PluginClassLoader] [INFO] Entities enhanced[0] subclassed[1]

Posted May 18, 2012Would be good to get this released before the summer starts and all the kids are out of school. Within the past month or two, server advertising has skyrocketed, and i still keep watching this plugin every day, waiting for a desperately needed release that works on 1.2.5, and should be able to block out most types of advertising.

I should be rolling out an update ASAP, I'm trying to pack a whole bunch of features into this update so it's taking a bit longer than expected. Sorry I'm not so good with releasing beta and small updates, but I'll try my best to get one out soon!

The Tickets component should be enabled now. If it isn't, let me know! I'm still learning the BukkitDev system, heh. :P

Posted Feb 14, 2012please make sure to include a whitelist. I don't want someone to provide a legit address for the server, like the website, and have issues.

Posted Feb 11, 2012Is there a way to have exception URL's, such as the server's own website? If not, that would be a nice addition to this, it is a good idea for a plugin.
