Should this be working on Spigot? I have a 1.11.2 server although in the FTP File Access, I can only see it as a Jar File but no Folder or Config file.

No, there is no output, when I installed it, it just said the jar file was installed but there was no config folder at the top, I use MCPH FTP service btw.

Hi, the delay between messages for this plugin is too long for my likings. How can I change it? I don't see anything in the config.yml or messages.yml about it.

If I do /brc stop it returns the help command:

/brc start
/brc stop

/brc <stop:start:help:info:reload:bc> [message]

If I do /brc bc Test it just says:

"Please use /brc bc <message> /brc <stop:start:help:info:reload:bc> [message]"

Also if I empty the following settings in config.yml:

Config: Broadcast: '' Command: Broadcast: ''

Upon reload I get the severe error:
