Yes, absolutely. Read through the wiki, you'll be pleasantly surprised at all the interesting thing you can do.

I know its not my place to reply to this but yes you can. I'm not sure if you can with battle arena or not as i'm 99% new to the plugin but I do know of a plugin called hidestream. Look that up on google/bukkit and i'm sure your find it. It can also turn off other spam chat related things like when a player leaves/joins your server.

Posted Aug 4, 2013Everything is working fine on my server XD. But I do have 1 thing. I have a faction server and members in the same faction cant harm each other in my sk. Could I change anything in the battle arena plugin to fix this?

Posted Aug 4, 2013I have two questions this time with the DeathMatch Arena.
Can I disable player death messages being displayed server-wide? If so, how?
Sometimes, a player will get a diamond sword replacing the weapon in their first slot? Is there a reason for this or is this a bug?

Posted Aug 4, 2013I currently use a plugin called War and was wondering if this plugin could be used to replace that plugin.
I'm essentially wondering if this plugin can setup a four team PvP arena where each team with let's say four players has a certain number of lives.

In this new version if you have set the sizes for the Arena, the Arena sizes will take precedence over the game type.
If that is the problem you can change them by doing.

Posted Aug 4, 2013I'm having another issue... I'm making this Team Deathmatch Arena, but when players join, everybody is on a different team. In the DeathMatch Config, I have nTeams set to 2 and teamsize set to 1+.

That is honestly just bizarre, especially since normally I don't affect anything to do with block breaking (unless you are using spleef), but even so..
Honestly what is your IP, and I'll pm you my contact details.
@moneyremcoo
Thanks money, someone else mentioned that as well. For now change the lobby to a waitroom. I'll get a fix for lobbies.

Posted Aug 4, 2013Hey, I have a problem when players leave the server when they are in a lobby, and relog again, they can't join any other game. The message they get: /null leave to leave your concurrent game. but /null leave doesn't exist.

Posted Aug 3, 2013Haha thanks.
i am having an issue with the plugin again. (its the guy who had setup issues yesterday) everything was working fine until, for some reason....pvp didnt enable in the arena, players can destroy blocks, there is no countdown in the arena you just start straight away.
i tried deleting the BattleArena folder, and starting again. i copied the arena file before hand and replaced it. could you have alook at these to configs and see whats up? lol
they are exactly the same, but with minor differences.

Its not you on that, I'll try to release a patch for the auto stuff tomorrow.
@AUSNZGaming
@HitmanPL47
Say what? how so, I've never heard of this. Do you happen to have the option blockBreakOn specified? B/c thats literally the only thing I can think of.
@rasnyderiii
Will do!
@killerpenguins100
I havent heard of any.. and ahh.. just had to restart :)
@chickeneater2345
do this, I changed that slightly and I'll need to update the wiki and default config.

Posted Aug 3, 2013Are there any plugins this plugin does not work well with? I have Version 3.9.3.4.2 the latest version and it gives me error "03.08 19:23:25 [Server] SEVERE Error occurred while enabling BattleArena v3.9.3.4.2 (Is it up to date?)"
EDIT: nvm I had to restart my server not just reload.

Posted Aug 3, 2013This plugin has a bug which allows players to grief parts of the server which should be protected. (Faction Safezones + Worldguard regions are bypassed!)

Posted Aug 3, 2013Events still don't get announced with the newest version....When I type /dm auto it says that I have autoed it but the server doesn't announce it... Don't know what I am missing, are there any changes in the config.yml that need to be done? Don't see it in the wiki... It used to work with this same config and the games configs before....

Lobby sign wall? what should be on it? Right now the join signs (if you specify an arena) already have the number of people waiting in the queue.
@Proxwian
Those don't sound like bugs, you just need to change up the config.
For the first spawn, are you giving them items or a class? That is normally how you give people things (preferably through a class).

if you don't people to drop items on death do the following command.
