AntiShare
AntiShare
DISCONTINUED
This plugin is no longer maintained. Support is no longer provided and updates will not be issued. If you would like to take over the project, please contact me.
Thanks to Team Haven (HAVENmc.com) for the logo!
What it does
The original idea came from here from the server legendaryisland.com. It blocks certain actions if a player (by default) is in creative mode. AntiShare also supports many other features like regions, inventory switching, and more.
Features Supported
- Multiple World Support - A configuration for each world
- GameMode Regions - Want your PvP arena to be survival? Use GameMode Regions!
- GameMode Inventories - An inventory for creative, one for survival, and even one for adventure
- GameMode Blocks - Don't let survival players break blocks placed by creative players!
- And much, much more - Take a look at the configuration! There are options for nearly every creative restriction option (including changing player levels and economy balances on Game Mode change)
For advanced help, please see this page.

Information regarding the next update
The next update of AntiShare will be a major change. Changes currently include the following. Check back often as this list will be adjusted:
- Complete reworking of inner functionality. This will help with the insane amount of resources AntiShare uses
- New permissions and commands.
- New configuration (with auto-convert)
- Smaller footprint on the hard drive (with auto-convert)
- More compatibility with other plugins
- Removal of fully integrated survival support. This means that although supported by the plugin, it is strongly recommended to use an alternate plugin to deal with protecting your servers from survival mode players. AntiShare is going to be designed with creative players being the bad guys and only prevent survival players from using creative stuff.
- Removal of fully independent regions. As this can be done with WorldGuard, AntiShare will no longer support it
- Continued limited support of World Splits
- Addition of a grouping system to assist with servers that may have donor ranks
- Modified support of inventories. This has yet to be fully designed, but the inventory system within AntiShare is going to be adjusted to permit more configuration as well as compatibility.
- Added support for potential future platforms. (note: this description is about to get nerdy) AntiShare is going to be following a common API abstraction to allow for more platforms to be supported by the same file. Although there are no active plans to support anything more than Bukkit, the potential for more platforms is being considered while rewriting the plugin. Although this system will increase the file size of the plugin, I do not foresee it affecting performance in a negative way.
- Complete rewrite of AntiShare. Yup, that's right. I'm going to be re-writing the plugin from scratch to clean up the code and give me more control over it. It's been quite a while since I've last updated the code, and it's becoming hard to fix issues with, both are sure signs that a rewrite is needed.
I would like to thank the current, and future, users of AntiShare - I hope it is serving you well. I hope you all understand the need for the rewrite and will continue to use AntiShare on your server(s).
If you have suggestions, comments, or questions, please contact me through any of the various way presented.

I mean that after a predictable time (1 day or it might be after a restart because i have a 12h restart cycle) people reported, that blocks which have been placed in creative are minable (drop loot) in survival mode. Normaly no loot drop appears.
I am using the current bukkit R.03 build and Antishare 1.4.5 dev build #46
and here is my config

Posted Nov 23, 2012HI turt2live!
And thank you again! I wanted to say that, man, you're my favorite dev!
Just run in to say that my players report "that the anti drop feature disappears after some time. Making the placed blocks in creative mineable.." too.
I'm using sqlite, and no anything special in a config file.
Also I was notice that after some unknown circumstances AntiShare stops using sqlite.db, and uses flat file, ignoring config.
P.S. Sorry for my probably bad english)

Posted Nov 22, 2012If I am using MultiINV and AS for just blocking actions - why is antishare doing anything with inventories?
/inventory/ender
/inventory/players
Already getting massive again since we have 100's login a day.
Thanks Turt, and forgive me. Just seems like it should not - I do not use regions in any way in case that matters.

I don't quite understand what you mean...
From what I can guess however, you are saying that over time creative blocks can be broken by survival players?
If so, I need your config.yml (without SQL details... I have no need to know your password), AntiShare and CraftBukkit versions, as well as a timeline (when does it happen, is it predictable, is there an error to show something went wrong in the console?)

Each time AntiShare loads it parses ALL players that have ever logged in. This is a temporary fix to a larger issue in AntiShare.
Mcstats seems to be fine.
To disable what AntiShare is doing turn off the archiver in the configuration

Posted Nov 19, 2012Well, thats the thing its finally late evening, and eveyone is sleepsing so i can test a bit around... our server has average of 75 players online during the early evening and day.. there is currently 1 player online so i kinda doubt that could be causing it.. Is there anyway to let it 'communicate out' a little faster if it communicates out (rather not communicate out at all offcourse but..? this 2 minutes downtime is hitting my 99.7% uptime for which i am working my ass off badly.. :( its already on 98.41% :(

It communicates out. However another problem may be that mcstats.org is down or your server has A LOT of players who have logged in before.

Posted Nov 19, 2012our OUTPUT policy is on ACCEPT added
$IP -A INPUT -p tcp - -dport 80 -m state - -state NEW -s 142.4.222.60 -j ACCEPT $IP -A INPUT -p udp - -dport 80 -m state - -state NEW -s 142.4.222.60 -j ACCEPT
lol this thing above doesnt work... oh well, the iptables is fine, input and output on port 80 should work to 142.4.222.60(mcstats.org)
to our iptables, issue still there =/ any clues what might be causing this? it happened since we updated to 4.4.0, first i thought it was a bukkit 1.4.4 issue but weve been updating on a daily bases and it hasnt improved ever since :(

There is a plugin metrics folder in your plugin folder. The configuration there is what it uses.
Metrics connects directly to mcstats.org/report on port 80
