Boss Bar Message

Boss Bar Message provides an easy to understand way of sending messages to players via the boss bar. Administrators can communicate alerts and messages to players in an unobtrusive manner, keeping the chat free for player messages. Here are a few examples of what a Boss Bar Message could look like.

As you can see, Boss Bar Message provides a very lightweight way of communicating with players.

Metrics

This plugin uses the bStats metrics system.

By default, bStats sends the following data:

• Your server's randomly generated UUID
• The amount of players on your server
• The online mode of your server
• The bukkit version of your server
• The java version of your system (e.g. Java 8)
• The name of your OS (e.g. Windows)
• The version of your OS
• The architecture of your OS (e.g. amd64)
• The system cores of your OS (e.g. 8)
• bStats-supported plugins
• Plugin version of bStats-supported plugins

To disable metrics, simply set enabled to false in the config.yml file located in the bStats plugin folder.
